Wish I could give this a "neutral" review. Basically the game is a bit of a mess, but it's still a fun mechwarrior game. So if you're a fan of the genre, go buy it, otherwise I wouldn't bother.

The Good:
- Mechs!
- Cutscenes are pretty good
- There is a campaign with a story that makes sense
- Gameplay is fun. It's basically the same as mechwarrior online or mechwarrior mercenaries, so if you play(ed) those, you know what's coming.

The Bad
- Unoptimized mess. CPU throttling, low FPS, stuttering etc. I'm running a 3080 and sometimes i'm hitting 20fps, it's crazy.
- The menu is mindbogglingly bad. Menus in top left corner have the okay button in the bottom right, on PC. The pathing in the menu is also not intuitive, it's just bad.
- Voice acting is terrible, almost all character anoy the hell out of me because of it
- Faces in the cutscenes are really odd, they shake a lot so all characters look either terrified or fuming mad. This makes the voice acting even worse, as it doesn't fit the visuals.
- The collecting aspect of mercenaries is gone, there's basically unlimited money/repairs and getting a lance mate or 2 blown up has 2 consequences.

But it's still a Mech game, so i'm having fun :)
