Ugh. I was sure I had written an earlier entry...oh well.
So, finished!
It's definitely the bombastic experience I was hoping for and expecting with an interesting set of mechanics. Weirdly, I didn't particularly enjoy riding around in the Titan - it felt too slow and I don't think I was that good at it. I mostly went "all in" and then retreated to heal the titan up, so I don't think I was really making the most of the different powers and abilities. It's almost like the Titan combat veered into fighting game territory (attack, respond, block, etc.) rather than shooter territory. In the former I really need to be up to speed on what my opponent is doing while in the latter as long as I hit the enemy and use cover I should be ok.
Strange.
The standout moments of the game are by far a few of the middle missions where you discover/use the time travel mechanic. It was an interesting experience as you start to realize the tactical potential it has - namely that you can warp in and out of combat giving your opponents an incredibly hard time to respond. I also thought the way those experiences were layered over successive areas in the game was well thought out, interesting, and engaging to play.
After I finished the campaign I spent an hour or two in the multiplayer - I joined a group playing a "fight back waves of enemies" mode that was interesting, but I wasn't all too excited to run the experience grind to get better equipment and loadouts and all that stuff. Made it an easy decision to move on to another game...
