Has anyone else seen this? It's basically a Shinji Ikari simulator by some Ukrainian devs that just released its demo. You direct a cute Anime girl in fighting monsters called 'Phantoms' in a Eva-inspired mecha called a Valkyrie, and try to keep her alive for a month. It's not exactly complicated in terms of gameplay, it's no Baldr Sky or anything, but it is unique and very clearly /m/ coded so might be worth a look.>inb4 shill.
>>23987396>Eva-inspired mecha>called a ValkyrieYer shitting me right?
>>23987396 is it a raising simulator or is it disdain for the genre
>>23987396The lore/premise reads more like Xenosaga's Shion simulatorNo mecha designs (seemingly);and no H doesn't seem very appealing You'd just have to trust that the writing holds up. I'm picky and skeptical. I'd wait out for a discount
>>23987396Neat premise. I've always kind liked the idea of a mecha story that isn't from the primary perspective of the pilots, like following engineers or commanders or even infantry. Like think Left Alive if that game wasn't abysmal dogshit, trying to run from Wanzers in a city should have been cool. If nothing else I do like the aesthetic.
>>23987470 if there's no robots to look at actually that's admittedly kind of a dealbreaker how does somebody do a mecha game without thinking about the mecha???
>>23987502I see people propose this every so often and I always think it'd be a neat idea in a world where we actually got mecha games where you played as the mecha to begin with, and so instead in our reality it sounds awful.In a world with few new mecha games, I don't care about a game about screwing the bolts onto the mecha. I want at least one per year where I get into it and shoot people before anyone makes one about making coffee for the pilots.
If mecha focus in no-go, I think it'd be cooler if it was also an eroge and basically additionally the player is a state-assigned boyfriend/girlfriend for the main character.
>>23992190NGL I kinda want to see someone make a game now of the player being a mechanic for a Mecha. Like a mix of Tank Mechanic Simulator and Hardspace Shipbreakers where you have to repair or service a mech before your shift ends.
>>23992190>I want at least one per year where I get into it and shoot people before anyone makes one about making coffee for the pilots.I get what you mean but we have like 3 of those coming out this year or next, and that's just the ones that have been announced. We're not in as bad of a drought for /m/ vidyq as we were a few years ago.>>23992486Honestly a game where you're piloting a mech with little or no support team and you have to handlw repairs and logistics yourself could be fun.
>>23992631>I get what you mean but we have like 3 of those coming out this year or next, and that's just the ones that have been announced. We're not in as bad of a drought for /m/ vidyq as we were a few years agoNTA but another important thing is such being made well. All the arcady inertia, momentum, feedback stuff.
>>23992184Easily if you're a westoid
>>23992631>>23993159There's a shitload of indies of highly varying quality, and at least a couple of mainstream titles. It's not perfect but yeah, it's better than before. AC6 really did kick off a lot of titles.

I've played it and was unimpressed. It seems very hard to keep the girl alive and capable. She either ends up in a depression cycle, loses all trust, or desyncs too hard and dies.
