Annoyances aside, there's a sense of pluck to Titanic Scion which may well power you through its most threadbare moments and its nagging UI quirks. [Issue#416, p.118]

More of a parallel line than a true evolution, Titanic Scion reinforces and expands Daemon X Machina’s strengths but doesn’t improve narratively, and its open-world elements only work in part. There’s a ton of content and opportunities, but the actual ‘quality time’ with Marvelous’ game is limited; the series still has a long way to go before becoming a must-buy. Fans of mecha and unconventional action, however, will find a fair compromise and plenty of fun.

By introducing an exploration component and significantly larger maps, the team at Marvelous attempted to renew and expand the gameplay of DAEMON X MACHINA: Titanic Scion, but the implementation wasn't entirely successful. The extremely repetitive and schematic nature of the secondary activities doesn't justify the presence of such an expansive world, which, among other things, negatively impacted loading times and the game's stability. The frenetic combat system and deep level of customization remain DAEMON X MACHINA's most lethal weapons, as well as the valid reasons why fans of the genre might love it despite its flaws.

I think it's a game with great potential, but they didn't know how to exploit it. The open world is very repetitive and gets boring after a few hours. The story isn't bad, but the worst part is the technical aspect: terrible textures, excessively long loading times, and frame rate drops that ruin the gameplay experience. In short, a game with a lot of potential that falls very short, especially due to its technical shortcomings.

Sequel to Switch's previous effort is a pretty good effort from the developer, but shows its lack of polish (possibly to its limited budget). Not a bad effort for one of Switch's 2 early entries, but still could have been much much better

No entendí muy bien lo de tipo de cuerpo 1 y 2 un poco absurdo preocuparse por minorías que no van a consumir este producto, lo que tengo claro no voy a consumir productos con mensajes ideología o políticos.
PD: Juego es patético.

Overall, Daemon X Machina: Titanic Scion is a massive, fast-paced open-world mecha action game that plays extremely well. The story is actually intelligible this time around, but while the mecha designs look wonderful, the characters definitely needed more work. There’s also a mountain of complexity and content here without much thought on how it should have been introduced, so you will have to persevere and figure the game out to get the most out of it. There’s genuine ambition here, though, but more focus, better writing, and stronger direction would have made this almost perfect.

Daemon X Machina: Titanic Scion is a sci-fi blast. While it wears its influences on its sleeve, it comes out the other side as a unique and enjoyable mech-based action-RPG.

The Fusion system is awesome! Mixing Immortal Factors not only gives you strong new powers, but also changes how you look — it honestly makes me feel like I’ve turned into Kaiju No. 8.

A very good game despite its flaws. The 10 is just to boost the overall rating — I’d normally give it a solid 8. An engaging story, fast-paced gameplay (even if a bit messy at times), and a top-notch co-op mode. The price is still a bit too high for this type of production. I’d recommend waiting for a discount, but if you’re a fan of sci-fi and mechas, go for it!

I don’t know if Daemon X Machina: Titanic Scion is going to turn me into a fan of these mecha games, but I certainly enjoyed the combat and design enough that I’m keen to check out some more to see if I do like something about the genre after all. Just be aware that the performance is pretty suspect at times. If you can handle that, then this is certainly an ambitious and entertaining sci-fi game for on the go.

Daemon X Machina: Titanic Scion is a decent mech game with plenty of depth in its weapons setups and lots of cool loot to discover in its large open-world maps. The combat is flexible, it's fast, and it's very often plenty of fun. However, performance issues — which are also present on other platforms, so don't sweat it too much, Switch 2 owners — make for a janky experience in places, with mushy controls and limp feedback. It's just not nearly as polished as it could be in this respect. With stutters loading into new areas and low-res textures a common sight (again, also on other systems), the overall feeling here is of a game that needs a few patches and tweaks to get it where it needs to be.

I’m an optimistic person. I try to view games as more than the sum of their parts, flaws and all. I’m struggling to maintain that train of thought as I reflect on my time with Daemon X Machina: Titanic Scion. An odd release here or there from a studio is forgivable. They can be viewed as an off-game, one where they weren’t at their best. Two uneven titles down into the mech series, and it’s clear there are problems with this series down to the core. If this is an IP that is to be continued, something fundamentally needs to change. Fans who see that diamond in the rough here deserve better.

Tout ce que je voulais dans un jeu de mechas...
Certes, il est modeste graphiquement, mais je n'ai jamais joué à un jeu pour ses graphismes et quand ils sont là, c'est évidemment bienvenu. Je suis quelqu'un qui jouent encore très fréquemment à la PS2, Gamecube, Dreamcast sur une télé tube cathodique... je suis donc immunisé contre cette tendance à être impressionnè par les graphismes et les scénarios et mises en scène calqués sur le cinéma. Tout ça pour dire que ce jeu est traditionnel dans son âme et ce n'est pas pour me déplaire.

I am upset.
I love Mechs, I can deal with melodramatic anime dialogue.
What I wanted was $69.99 worth of gameplay. I am sure it is a good game in spite of flaws, but it is not worth this money.
It doesn't run smoothly, or appear as slick as other ports. I did not play the original. I was just starved of Switch 2 content and looking for a good time. I wish I had bought it on PC. I was honestly hoping for gyro or even mouse controls. Just ANYTHING that would justify bringing the graphics down to Switch standards. They have my money and I cant get that back. I mean a large push into this game for me was that it WASNT a Game-Key Card. Game content is on the cartridge and I will be glad to support that, but this feels like such a low standard to make at this point.
If you are still insistent.
I would ask that you WAIT.
WAIT for the price to drop.
WAIT for patches to fix performance.

Taking the giant mechs out **** known for being a giant mecha game is a terrible idea. For a portion of your audience it won't matter, but to the people who liked the original game specifically because it was a giant mecha game akin to Armored Core, its a deal breaker.
