Why transforming mechs is such a rarity in video games?You have, well, Transformers licensed games (from 10 years ago), Macross/Robotech ones (from 20 years ago), and that one offs like Bulk Slash or Accelebird which are like 50 years old at this point.Just make modern mecha game where I can transform into a plane that isn't fucking live service dead on arrival chinese money laundry scheme.Yes I am gonna replay Xenoblade X DE on day 1, but that's just re-release of a unique fucking, game, where transforming gimmick simply disappears in the middle of the game, because flying mode is just wings attached to humanoid mode.Trailer showed repurposed dark knight mech that can turn into a jet of sorts, but it's unclear if it's NPC only.
>>23059309coz mechs in general are rare
>mecha game where I can transform into a planeHere you go, ESL-kun.
>>23059309if that counts that Grendizer game had phases in the flying saucer, and that gundam VR game this year had a Delta-type gundam that could change forms.Not only mecha games are rare due to mechas being niche worldwide + them not selling well, but transforming mechas can also be a bitch to animate/design in 3D. especially in real time (unless you don't care about the build fitting)
>>23059398>game so old it could be my grandfather>>23059485If one pays close attention when playing Xenoblade X, he can notice that different generations of the same mech model can have differently shaped body parts.So theoretically you can still allow some parts swapping with transforming mechs, just not as extreme as in Armored Core or Gundam Breaker.
>>23059309There's also Sweet Tooth in Twisted Metal 2012
>>23059309That's sweet, I might buy GB4 no->it's patched out as a bug https://youtube.com/watch?v=H7cxWvxwbQklmfao fuck bamco
>>23060226>>game so old it could be my grandfatherYou must be born in the 20th century to use 4chan.
>>23060526I'm sorry I don't have clay tablets, so I wouldn't be able to play even if I wanted to.
>>23060766Must be great paying rent eternally.
