Not just my expectations, it has a metacritic score of 87. That’s good, but it’s only in the top 50 games this year.
Again, I don’t really care, I don’t actually plan on playing it. Just saying why it’s completely justifiable that reviewers downgrade the score because it’s not doing anything new/has no story.
Just fyi - but I’d rate games with microtransactions as below this. I just have learnt to enjoy action games with story. Otherwise it’s just another action game. If you play a hundred action games then they start all being the same unless you start doing more. Mech combat is not that exciting or new for me.
But great that you and others enjoy it.
