The story revolves around a post-apocalyptic scenario where humans have evacuated cities, leaving robots to reclaim them by constructing a giant robot. However, players feel that the narrative is secondary to the main focus of the game, which is the exhilarating destruction of urban environments.
“Judging by the posters in the main menu area, there's a compelling plot where humans evacuated cities, leaving only robots behind. In response, they built a giant robot to retake the cities.”
“The story feels disjointed and lacks coherence, making it hard to stay engaged with the plot.”
“The characters are one-dimensional and fail to evoke any emotional connection, which detracts from the overall experience.”
“The narrative is predictable and relies heavily on clichés, leaving little room for surprises or depth.”
