Brigador: Up-Armored Edition

Both of my dads recommended this game so I guess it's ok.

It was somewhat fun for around 10 minutes, then for a few hours you realize all missions you get through are the same, the text "story" doesn't matter, and all the vehicles you unlock also play the same, and you've pretty much seen everything as you can buy anything and test it on arcade 10 minutes into the game. All that and yet the balance is curiously terrible having easy missions next to annoying ones with multiple one hit kill enemies. Surely expected more from all the great reviews around, it's hard to disappoint me with something I got for free.

I've bought this game around 5 years ago, I played for a couple of hours never clicked (the control schem for certain Vehicle is really confusing and disorienting). Nowadays I tried it again and the soultion In freelancer mode I test run every wepons and machine combo and if it suits my style I using it! Dope music intense battles, marvelkouly crafted enviroments a couple of options how to defeat the enemy. Thats it for me its a solid mindles PhewwPheww with mechs :)

This is not a "pick up and play" kind of game, but the time you spend learning mech movement and game mechanics will be very rewarding. You'll go from sticking to heavy and powerful mechs to zipping around the battlefield in a rickshaw while annihilating everything in sight. Grinding is completely optional as you can unlock all mech equipment, most mechs, and enough pilots/maps to suit your playstyle while playing through the campaign. By the time you decide to 100% the unlocks you'll know how pilot/vehicle multiplyers work and find your preferred combo for quickly beating maps for MAXX CREDIT GAINZ. If the premise at all appeals to you and you are not afraid of action then get this. Also "Hi, Mandy!". Thanks for the rec, bro!

Peak Mechanized Warfare, Peak retro-future vibes. Looking forward for the second one
