Somehow very occasional experiences (around once every few months) of watching giant robots in battle reminds me of one old game which I sorely forgot (Two of them in particular. The first was around 10+ years ago when I was a young girl, playing on my older brothers' PC. Was in some kind of robot, on a mission that had me blow up two tanks, and some other small vehicles [small from my perspective], and then there were enemies in the far distance that I had trouble even attacking because of the multiple weapons systems at my disposal, and being young and new, had no idea how to use them right. Some of them were on cliffs and on the ground, so it was both an intriguing experience and one that up'd my perspective of battle games like these because of cliffclimbing enemies. Also when you died, the camera would stop being first-person and zoom out to your mech slowly exploding dramatically. The next game was pixelated in a way, had around 4[?] characters in giant machines, which get nuked when they run out of health, and the pilot can eject and has a really puny attack. Also the nuke icon was a black and orange circle with a red and green HUD :v. Reminiscing it, this should go into the 'forgotten a game?' thread but it is related)
I forgot those two games :I
But now I'm finding myself check both on mobile (Giggle play store) and on PC(...Steam? O_o or online) for OFFLINE games that don't require a constant internet connection that have giant robots or otherwise as your main character/control.
This all happened because of an advertisement that shot up in a game I'm playing on my phone. It was "War Robots" on the Google Play store. :v
And it is annoyingly online only.
