    The worst thing about this review is that I had to check which studio actually developed this because of how much the UI was reminding me of Phantasy Star Online 2. They're unrelated but it still threw me for a loop.

    The network test for gundam breaker 4 was a good one. Its basically gundam breaker 3 again with additional customisation options and improved combat... wich in all honesty is the best we can expect from bandai i guess?

      This is literally all anyone wants from GB4, an updated 3 with more parts, improvements that don't wreck what GB3 is and modern graphics. We're not asking for the wheel to be reinvented.

      @@klqeast No, you also dont need to deposit them in a chest either. Its the same system that they used in breaker 3. You pick em up and they are in your inventory for good. Though if you loose the mission you might loose most of the stuff you collected, i think thats how that worked in breaker 3

    I liked New Gundam Breaker when I played it, but I should preface it with the following
    I had Gundam Breaker 2 on ps3 before my console died
    I could never find Gundam Breaker 3 at the time for less than scalper prices
    And my internet didnt support GBO2
    So I am literally in the camp of "I kinda like this because I cant get anything better"
    I am no longer in this camp, but NGB has a strange spot in my heart because it was there for me when I didnt have the other options. It is kinda like that friend who is terrible in every way, but when you had no one else, they were there.

  • @Nehfarius

    New Gundam Breaker was so sad. Namco would have been better off just officially porting Breaker 3 to the west, since it was already localized in english for Asia region.
    That would have made more money and not give the west such a bad representation of Breaker series. I'm glad the upcoming Breaker 4 is ignoring this game completely and building on Breaker 3.

    You forgot to mention how the maps change in the different routes mainly the forest map i fucking hate that map there is usually a launch pad to shoot you back in the hole to deposit the parts but on certain routes the launch pad is gone and you have to run a 3 minute run to deposit your parts

But even then New wasn't all bad, the Shinon route actually made me want to build a proper Red Comet suit to go with her route, and as such a favorite gunpla of mine, the Shionju, was born... just in time to beat the perverted bully into submission LOL

    The heck is with that “ADHD Corner” thing?
    I have ADHD & Autism, and I just hate random stuff like that; it supposedly helps to pay attention, but in my experience…IT DOES THE EXACT OPPOSITE!
    It’s really distracting/annoying, and it’s blocking part of the screen.
    I have enough trouble paying attention to stuff as it is, you don’t need to make it MORE difficult.

    I platinumed this shit, waited till the extra mission for the model i wanted was released (the very last one) and after building the model i wanted, uninstalled and went back to GB3BE.
    NGB litterally only has one game mode, just you have one, or even two allies.
    funnel, bit, etc weapons lock you in place (often times getting you killed) and miss 99.987" of the time.
    the best build I tried was, no joke, not changing the default parts at all. the basic gundam was better than any more advanced model ever was.
    the building was okay, but it constantly pissed me off, because you see a Blue frame with the tactical arms, but the tactical arms is not available in game... one of my favorite just for fun weapons in GB3. was so angry, i bought TWO 1/60 tactical arms models to cope. i dont own any other 1/60, so they are atm decorations for my PC at work :)
    option parts are worthless in NGB as if you need to switch a part, because yours got destroyed, the option parts stay where they were and now look aweful.
    enemies always started with their abilities and would b-line me in every round, making getting exp to even be able to fight back even harder and longer.
    the best part of the story is hidden, about the psycho girl (who shows up in the GB battloge) went psycho AND was humbled because she was beat by a shopping district rep (GB3 protag) cant remember anything else as it was way to generic and bland
    Robota from GB3, a litteral robot, had more charisma than the entire NGB cast put together.
    GB4 looks promising. a friend of mine got into the network test and he said it was like GB3 but improved. lookin forward to it

    I know you had some slightly positive things to say about the gameplay, but I think that might have been because you were playing on PC. The PS4 had horrendous framerate issues, and it didn't matter if you were playing on the original or the Pro. As for the customization, it felt far more limited than GB3 to me. The frames, for starters, felt like the game was trying to force you into specific combat roles, and even then, I don't feel like they supported those roles very well. As for the parts, from my understanding, NGB had the least amount of model kits to work with, and unlike in GB3, there was no way to upgrade your favorite parts. Do you prefer the green beam saber over the pink one? Tough. The pink one does more damage, and if you want to win, there's nothing you can do to fix it.

    • @riptors9777
      @riptors9777 5 місяців тому +1

      Parts also only had 1 ability each while in breaker 3 for example the shoulders/arms of the kshatrya alone had like 2 or 3 optional weapons. (Funnel, beam cannons and that weird but fun whirly beam attack) And yeah... the customisation in new breaker was completly moot cause you either picked the parts with the best stats or you would defacto gimp yourselfe and be cannonfodder. But the greatest offense was diminishing the Extra parts to mere cosmetics with passive bonuses... talking about taking a crowbar to the customisation systems knees....

    I played Gundam Breaker 3 on Vita, and it didn't seem like anything special... like a Dynasty Warriors game with lots and lots of grinding.
    I don't know why Bandai has such difficulty making good Gundam games. It seems like the eassiet thing in the world. Just make a first/third person shooter... but the characters are mecha instead of people. Maybe add some slight inertia to the movement to give it the feeling of weight. Don't put the weapons on cooldown timers or any bullshit like that. Don't put in unnecessary grind or pay to win bullshit. No loot boxes. No gacha.

    They could have fixed at least 60-70% of the problem by doing 1 thing to this game, just one frigging thing: Make it so your parts do not drop in battle.
    Just this. That's all. Losing your mech configuration in battle is the main problem in the game which absolutely destroys the experience. This would be easy to fix and while it wouldn't make the game like GB3, it would at least be playable instead of completely irredeemable.
    But they're morons and can't even do that. So here we are with a game that's not even worth pirating.
