![]() There is also no real guidance on HOW to upgrade and get better parts so it’s a matter of trial and error and poking the game hard enough. This means I have to back out a few times to head into my hangar, see what my equipped part is called and what their bonus stats are, and then head back to the other menu and see if it’s any better. I can head into the factory to craft new armor or weapons and while I can click for a stat comparison, I have no idea what I currently have equipped. It made for an easy kill, but this happened more often than it should have.ĭaemon X Machina does have two painful flaws: its menu and its total lack of tutorial. ![]() Certain enemy mercs will give you a serious challenge but I occasionally encountered fights where Arsenals were on the ground trying to sprint head-first into a wall. I will say for how intense and awesome combat can be, there are times the AI proves… less than capable. This seems simple enough but when everyone is moving about like lightning you’ll need those quick reflexes to keep them in your sights. Essentially if the enemy remains in the circle on your HUD, your shots will aim towards them. While not a typical lock-on system, it instead allows you to auto target within a certain distance. Targeting comes from your choice of head with varying lock-on ranges. I have been in fights where my right arm blew clean off my Arsenal, but luckily I downed an enemy, ripped their arm off and equipped it so I could keep fighting. The right arm – with my assault rifle and sword – has a much higher rate of fire but its defense is notably lower to balance out. ![]() I keep my bazooka and acid launcher on the left arm so I equipped an arm that has high defensive power and increases my damage output for the weapons it holds. Each part contributes to your base stats and their individual abilities, so you can focus on getting exactly what you want out of it. It’s a harsh world but being a merc is just another job.Ĭustomizing your Arsenal feels great as you’ll always be pushing to get the best out of your machine. While I started out holding grudges against certain mercs, I quickly found myself allying with characters who previously had tried to kill me. Each mission is a contract offered by a consortium, however other mercs can be hired by opposing consortiums to stop you. These events also lead to the rise of the Immortals, a rogue-AI faction able to overwrite and commandeer technology in the pursuit of mankind’s destruction. Equipped with Arsenals, Outers quickly banded together into registered mercenary groups which these consortiums then hire out for research, defense, or whatever else is needed. Consortiums sprung up with different ideas on how best to serve the people and these built into massive corporations. It caused cataclysmic disasters around the globe and mankind banded together to save the people. Several years prior, a large portion of the moon collided with the Earth and released Femto into the atmosphere.
