Why don't you kids like giant robots?

Why don't you kids like giant robots?

Is it because you grew up in a time after Power Rangers and Voltron? Because you didn't get exposed to Gundam Wing in your formative years?

I can't fucking fathom why everyone I know under the age of 25 couldn't give a shit about mecha, but everyone over that age will buy any game with giant robots in it in a heartbeat, just on the promise of giant robots.

I'm 22 and I like giant robutts

Because Excellen is dead

youtube.com/watch?v=tWmWlxDiD0o

>Excellen is dead

Who cares, this is the real loss.

>tfw love Mecha and know moon
>Don't like SRPGs so can't enjoy SRW

I'm not a big fan of SRPGs either.

I only play SRW for the plot and interactions

Wait what?

>really like giant robots
>can't get into Mecha anime/games
A painful existence

America doesn't get enough good mecha games

There's always ACE, that' a great series, it's not like they released a game so awful it put the series in the grave forever, right?

SRX a shit.

I for one is actually glad.

So that the series can move on from the wankery of the director for Kyosuke and Excellen and put back the focus to the real team, the SRX team

If a giant robot fights a giant monster, what's the point of either of them being giant?

I don't get it. It's like tmnt, people in their gen carne about it and that's it.
I tried watching mecha. Gurren is fine, eva is 2deep4me. Gundam is too big for me. I don't know amything else

>tfw the mech walker thing from MGS5 is the only reason you bought the fucking game

I was disappointed in the game aswell but mine hit half way through

>doesn't play Gundam Battle Operation Next
>not maining Wing Gundam and having fun blasting enemies and win.

What are you, some kind of extra faggot

collateral damage to the city

Mecha threads are after midnight

Fuck off Kyosuke.

>Finally get less Kyosuke/Excellen pandering
>HAHA NOW WE'RE ADDING THE ENDLESS FRONTIER EXCELLEN AND KYSOSUKE CLONES TO SRW
>You will NEVER see an Alfimi and Axel combo attack

Why no love for tiny robots?

I beat OG1 but that's it. Couldn't bring myself to beat OG2.

Them animations in the PS2 games though.

Only thing I know about ACE is that one of the songs got covered by Idolm@ster and that it's a kickass song. Never played any of the games.

I did play it and I liked it but latency killed it for me. Shitty internet connection yo.

>Playing that garbage when I could be losing to nips at EXVS then getting incomprehensible hate mail from my teammate

R-1 must have extra long neck

Correct

Liking playing Sandrock, a shit tier 2000 unit when you can play the glorious Nightingale, shit, even Blitz is better than that shit.

youtube.com/watch?v=MZOYqzwZam4

I'm a Gold Frame main, my man.

post fast mech games

I love giant mecha, pic related, it's what I'm doing right now.

Because tanks > giant robots

>Providence going in for melee

Why not both?

"no"

What's it like to have shit taste? Even Barbatos is better than the 2 Gold Frames, and it only costs 2000

youtube.com/watch?v=hTP3T87UhIQ

>SRW
>still uses shitty SD style art on all robots
>not drawing robots in their real models and with real size scaling

The Gold Frames are ok, have some fucking mercy, I play the suits I like and it so happens that most of them sit at the lower end of the tier list.

I just want them to unfuck Arche, is that too much to ask?

They already have a series that does that.

youtube.com/watch?v=grs1aYI4n7c

You want another Shin.
Because if so then you are the cancer killing SRW

>Why no love for tiny robots?

Hows that Little Battlers game for 3DS?

The idea of a giant robot is fine with me, I just don't like the tropes that go with it I guess?

Like, all the bullshit drama between robot pilots. I'm not here to watch a soap opera, I'm here for giant robots.

Also giant robot shows tend to pull asspulls like "MY LASERS ARE BEING SUPERCHARGED BY THE POWER OF FRIENDSHIP" or "EVEN THOUGH HIS MECH HAS TAKEN SO MUCH DAMAGE IT LITERALLY SHOULDN'T BE ABLE TO MOVE HE'S SO DETERMINED HE'S STILL FIGHTING"

Like, Gurren Lagann at least made an excuse where everything is powered by spiral energy so at least it makes sense in that universe. A lot of the times it just feels like a cheap asspull though.

I also think a lot of giant robot designs are designed oddly. Like, the design is too busy or it's too human-like.

For example, I generally like Zaku gundams the best because of their one eye. One big lens that sweeps across the head unit like a camera makes more sense to me, you know? It seems like something that could actually exist if someone had the money, time and fucks to give.

But that would be retarded since not all robots in all robot shows are in the same scale. Some are truck sized and some bigger than skyscrapers. That doesnt even count some shit when the robots go galaxy sized, how are you supposed to use any other robot after that?

>implying using your willpower to fuel your weapons and mech isnt awesome as fuck

>shitty SD style

...

This. The drill is my soul!

>"MY LASERS ARE BEING SUPERCHARGED BY THE POWER OF FRIENDSHIP" or "EVEN THOUGH HIS MECH HAS TAKEN SO MUCH DAMAGE IT LITERALLY SHOULDN'T BE ABLE TO MOVE HE'S SO DETERMINED HE'S STILL FIGHTING"

not all anime is gurren lagann

Yeah, exactly. If those two mechs were actually in scale, poor Scopedog would be so fucked since antispiral is bigger than a galaxy. Thats why going SD scale for everything and making them same size is better.

youtube.com/watch?v=y04DmFB7GAU

Do you see any giant robot in real life?

...

>Z2
>Good animations

Come on.

>Not loving ITTOU RYOUDAN or TURBO SMASHER PUNCH

Well its not just in gurren lagann, its pretty big part of the super robot genre, thats kinda the point why gurren also did it.

TRONIUM ENGINE

and what suppose is "good" annon-sama?

FURU DURAIBU

STONAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA SANSHAAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN

It's a personal favorite of mine. Played all three games before the first one even got localized. Fantastic franchise with really fun gameplay. Bit on the easy side so don't use healing items.

The animations in Z. The animations in Z3 they gave to the A team. The animations in 2nd OG.

youtube.com/watch?v=hxQG4d6DqWQ

of course just like getter robo powered by friendship

youtube.com/watch?v=RAYl4DTv0nM
youtube.com/watch?v=wJsyR9ifB5I

when is lbx 2 getting localized?

Well Getter is powered by pilots being stupidly strong willed assholes. The point is that in super robot genre, its EMOTIOOOOOOOOON RAAAAARGH that makes the robot move.

>that pic
Nuke them again.

>tfw no metal gear games that focuses on the /m/ aspect

dat REX VS RAY segment on MGS4 should have it's own game

>tfw Armored Core is dead
>tfw Front Mission is dead
>tfw Mechwarrior is one foot in grave
>tfw nip mech games don't get localized
>tfw nips are starting to sway away from mechs
Is there any hope for us? Are we here just to suffer?

Because mecha is shit 99% of the time, and therefore the games are shit too.

And stupidly skilled and the Getter Rays

it's evolution actually

you're wrong again

Post entry level mecha for me to enjoy please. Be it games or anime.

>implying oversized robots are only powered by friendship and emotions

>Mazinger
>Golion
>Jeeg
>Running on emotion, evolution or any such nonsense

I'm afraid it's because of super science.

I didn't say Mazinkaiser or Mazinger Zero.

Watch Gundam Unicorn and play Armored Core For Answer.

Probably one of the comfiest mech anime ever.

Break Blade

Impact battles were always my favorite part of Goemon games

youtube.com/watch?v=o9ey2aFhM2Y

Play Zone of the Enders.

Get the HD collection, and play ZoE1 before you start 2. If anybody suggests playing 2 first or skipping 1, ignore them.

That too. In general I just say "its getter rays" when something needs explaining.
You mean magic science since evolution doesnt actually fuel lasers.
Didnt say they were "only" powered by those. Its just a common trope.

>entry level

also on that note go to your containment board if 98% of the thread is not vidya

this, but don't bother with the first one

Thats because giant robots are cool. Anime about teen romance drama bullshit with some scenes of giant robots is not.

I'm 28 yo and I don't like robots, always thought it was a stupid design. Now tanks however...

Typical monster shaming. It can't help it if it was born to be huge.

Super science is still not friendship

mecha ≠ shonen

What a weird fucking list.

Call the cops faggot, I don't give a fuck.

But tanks are super stupid and boring. Just boxes with tubes sticking out of them.

>There will NEVER be an MD Geist game

I want to stop

That's a pretty intense list for entry level, but thanks. Sort of ontopic, did Zoids go anywhere in Japan or did it just vanish like it did here?

...

In these? It pretty much is also friendship. Its anything that the writer wants.

Gurren Lagann is probably the best entry level super robo show. Gundam 00 if you want normal mechs.

>VR
>Steel Battalion style controller
>One of these rigs

THE FUTURE IS COMING

>Gundam Breaker 3 is not VR-ready

REEEEEEEEE

Is that motherfucking Kukuru Doan?

animations en 2nd OG are not good, are GOD, but in Z1 are not much difference than Z2, Gunleon IS THE SAME

This is your date tonight

i wouldn't go 00 for "normal" mechs. there are varying levels of "normal" and by the end of it 00 is basically super robot nonsense with all the particles and trans-am BS

for normal i'd say gundam 08th MS team or votoms
