"SRW 30 - you know shit's going to get weird ..."

... but not this weird ... I mean, on one hand, I was expecting weirdness, having played OG and OG2 before. Glorious bunches of oddity and ham, they were. But this is my first mainline Super Robot Wars game, and ... well, it's mashing the UC timeline, GaoGaiGar, Code Geass and a bunch of other things into a mess that somehow manages to make sense and make you laugh your ass off more often than not. Case in point, for UC the timeline is after the Laplace Box incident. And my squad of well meaning mechjock murderhobos currently includes not only Pic Above, but also Amuro and Kamille ... ... yeah, Imma have fun with this one. --- The non-believers climbed for days to confront the master in the mountains. "Where do you get your so-called faith?" they asked. "You brought it," the master replied. "You've all climbed so high." - The Book of Cataclysm |

It's not gonna count as weird until they start plonking in House Robots --- "She's old, she's lame, she's barren too, // "She's not worth feed or hay, // "But I'll give her this," - he blew smoke at me - // "She was something in her day." -- Garnet Rogers, Small Victory FiMFiction.net: we might accept blatant porn involving the cast of My Little Pony but as God is my witness we have standards. mechjock murderhobo in a gigantic sergeant bash. this is the dream. |

I am playing this, very slowly. 74 hours and 46 missions in. Loving it. My favorite plot moment so far is in little blurbs when you run combat animations. Fuu said something in the ballpark of "I will end nightmares that plagued my childhood with my own two hands" And then you remember, that in the universe, ten years ago, in Previous Big War, there was previous Dr. Hell Uprising and that wasn't nice for anyone in Japan. And Fuu is 14 years old schoolgirl and mech pilot. Yeah... Generally, the nods to Previous Big War are very interesting. We know that there was One Year War, Dr. Hell, Dinosaurs, Voltres Aliens, GaoGaiGar and something else mashed together, possibly Zeta too, and Amuro, Getter Team, Mazingers, Voltes, Braves and some other people who I don't remember right now were on Argama, flying around and smashing problems right in the face, and half of the younger cast of your current team was there, grew on their exploits and was inspired. |
