  • The graphics have been significantly improved in the remaster, making the mobile suits and environments look great.
  • The gameplay is fun and engaging, with a decent challenge that encourages players to upgrade their mobile suits and improve their skills.
  • The targeting system is often unresponsive and can lock onto the wrong targets, making combat frustrating.

  • story
    220 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's story is largely criticized for being superficial and poorly presented, relying heavily on players' prior knowledge of the Gundam Seed and Seed Destiny anime to make sense of the missions. There are minimal cutscenes or narrative context, with most story elements conveyed through brief mission dialogues, making it difficult for newcomers to engage with the plot. While fans of the series may appreciate the nostalgic references and mission structure, the overall storytelling experience is deemed lacking and frustrating, especially for those unfamiliar with the source material.

    • “The story missions do an okay job of following the anime's plot, but if you haven't seen the show or are at least familiar with the storyline, you're going to have a lot of trouble telling what's going on and why this dude or that girl is suddenly on the other side.”
    • “The first is that if you have watched the Gundam Seed and Seed Destiny anime, the game really does a good job of allowing you to play through the story and experience it in a new way.”
    • “It's somewhat disappointing that you are just someone participating and don't get to change how the story goes in the anime, but it does its job good enough.”
    • “The story basically doesn't exist unless you're fluent in Japanese, or can play with one eye pointed at the action, and one eye at the bottom of the screen to read subtitles, as all story plays in combat.”
    • “The mission/story structure is very bare bones and requires you to be very familiar with the Gundam Seed and Seed Destiny show.”
    • “The story portions are half-baked and you won't have much of an idea of what is going on apart from the small blurb you can read at the start of each mission.”
  • gameplay
    64 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is generally enjoyable, especially for fans of the Gundam franchise, offering a variety of mobile suits and missions, though it can feel clunky and simplistic at times. While it retains the core mechanics of previous titles, it may require some adjustment for new players due to its dated controls and repetitive nature. Overall, it provides a fun experience for those familiar with the series, despite some frustrations with AI and balance issues.

    • “Fast and fun gameplay.”
    • “The gameplay is fun with a huge variety of suits to mess around with and a good variety of missions.”
    • “The gameplay loop is also really fun and addictive.”
    • “The gameplay is finicky even for a hack and slash.”
    • “Gameplay is very monotonous and grindy.”
    • “The game is clunky and awkward in a way that player skills are actually required to circumvent the flaws in the gameplay.”
  • graphics
    33 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics of the game have received mixed reviews, with many praising the remastered visuals as a significant improvement over the original PSP and PS Vita versions, showcasing impressive mobile suit designs and solid framerate. However, some users noted graphical glitches and a lack of detail in certain areas, likening some elements to early PlayStation 2 graphics. Overall, while the enhancements are appreciated, the game is still seen as having average graphics by modern standards, with some players feeling it remains a basic action game.

    • “The graphics update for a 2012 game is so damn good :)”
    • “The graphical improvements are outstanding—the mobile suit designs look spectacular, with a level of detail that truly does justice to the Gundam Seed universe.”
    • “It's a graphically updated game that keeps the core mechanics.”
    • “This is a barebones port of a PS Vita game with no new bells and whistles aside from some improved graphics.”
    • “Although you might have a high-powered PC enough to handle detailed graphics, during the still cutscene where allies and enemies spawn in, the graphic detail of their mech is not rendered as it should, making it look like an early PlayStation 2 design.”
    • “That said, it’s still 'just' a basic action game with average graphics and fairly simple mechanics.”
  • music
    13 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game is highly praised for its nostalgic value, featuring iconic tracks from the original anime series, such as "Red Stroke" and "Mission Start," which enhance the gameplay experience. Players appreciate the inclusion of original Japanese voice actors and the absence of generic tracks, although some note that the music is largely rehashed or remixed from the anime. Overall, the soundtrack significantly contributes to the enjoyment of the game, especially for fans of the Gundam franchise.

    • “Sound effects and music don't miss since those came from the anime series, which helps make you feel like you're playing in an episode or something.”
    • “The absolute nostalgia blast I got just from listening to the soundtrack for this game again is crazy.”
    • “If you like Gundam or Seed, then it's actually not bad (rare for a Bamco anime title), offers custom match replayability and a custom pilot mode, and has music from the show.”
    • “- music is literally rehashed and somewhat remixed from the original anime's score”
    • “It also speaks volumes that this lazy excuse of a remaster doesn't even contain any bonus features like a model viewer, music player, lore entries to read, anime clips, etc.”
    • “+ original music tracks are preset and not replaced with generic ones.”
  • grinding
    7 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be quite pronounced, often leading to repetitive gameplay as they work to unlock essential features and improve their mobile suits. Many reviews highlight the frustration of having to replay missions and the overall monotony of mindlessly defeating enemies, which can detract from the enjoyment of the game. While some nostalgic players appreciate the grind, others feel it makes the early game experience tedious and underwhelming.

    • “This is grindy and repetitive. If you've played previous Gundam games of any kind, it's not a surprise, but I'll mention it.”
    • “It is very repetitive, and you'll be spending most of your time grinding and just mindlessly shooting down enemies.”
    • “Gameplay is very monotonous and grindy.”
  • optimization
    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game is praised for its excellent optimization, delivering impressive performance while maintaining visual appeal and smooth gameplay. However, some users feel that the balance between performance upgrades and gameplay elements, such as redeploys, could be improved. Overall, it provides a fun experience that showcases the capabilities of players' hardware.

    • “Not to mention, it's well-optimized while looking great and maintaining the original's pace.”
    • “Even though it lacks complexity in its combat, it's a fun little game that makes your rig blush and ego-boosts your components with that sweet performance.”
    • “Gameplay is fun and easy to get into, and it runs smoothly from what I've experienced.”
    • “The loss of redeploys relative to performance upgrades does not seem close to fair at all.”
    • “Even though it lacks complexity in its combat, it's a fun little game that makes your rig blush and ego-boost your components with that sweet performance.”
  • replayability
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players appreciate the game's strong replayability, highlighted by a wealth of missions that can be replayed for unlocks and rankings, as well as various game modes that add to the experience. However, some users express frustration over the absence of certain units, which may impact overall enjoyment.

    • “8) A ton of missions, which are replayable for unlocks and rankings, with various game modes further enhancing replayability.”
    • “A very nice game with some really good replayability value.”
    • “I honestly can’t comprehend why the hell certain deep arms are missing from the game, while dozens of other totally obscure units are playable...”
    • “There are a ton of missions, which are replayable for unlocks and rankings, with various game modes further enhancing replayability.”
    • “There are a ton of missions, which are replayable for unlocks and rankings, with various game modes further enhancing replayability.”
  • monetization
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The monetization aspect of the game is criticized as a cash grab, particularly targeting nostalgic fans of Gundam Seed, with players expressing disappointment in outdated controls and a lack of innovation. There is a strong desire for more engaging and well-developed game concepts rather than relying on nostalgia for profit.

    • “Same old outdated controls, hard to play and just a cash grab for nostalgic Gundam Seed fans.”
    • “After playing DW: Origins, I fell in love with DW again. I would love to see a Gundam DW game like DW: Origins or maybe a game with Armored Core: For Answer style combat. Even a Star Wars Battlefront 2 style game would do. Please Bandai, there are so many things you could do; just make them good and not a cash grab.”
  • stability
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Overall, users report mixed experiences with stability; while some have encountered graphical glitches in version 1.0.1, others have not experienced any crashes or issues thus far.

    • “There are numerous graphical glitches in version 1.0.1.”
    • “I haven't encountered any glitches or crashes (yet).”
  • humor
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The humor in the game is enjoyable and provides some laughs during gameplay, but it ultimately fails to maintain long-term engagement.

  • emotional
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The emotional impact of the game is largely absent, as players note the lack of cutscenes and a cohesive plot, resulting in a disconnection from the narrative and characters. This leads to a gameplay experience that feels more mechanical than emotionally engaging.
