"I have to ask you the same question people back home are asking about space these days. Is it worth it? Should we just pull back? Forget the whole thing as a bad idea, and take care of our own problems, at home."
Finally found Super Robot Taisen Original Generation earlier today. It's my first "real" SRW game. I never got to play any of the original ones, but I have played both Brave Saga games which used a similar system, just with a different pool of units.
I'm taking the SRX route first, since it's the closest thing to a "Super Robot" route there is in OG, it looks to me. I'm up to Episode 7 now, and got a feeling I'm really gonna like Ryuusei. Latooni reminds me a lot of Max Jenius from Macross. I'm mostly sitting on my money waiting for the R-units to show up before I do any upgrades. Also managed to get Battle Mastery on 4 of the 6 scenarios I've done so far.. would have been 5 but I didn't check it until I was too far in that first scenario to go for it and I didn't want to restart.
SPOILER SPACE
Other than having a little trouble keeping track of the alphabet soup of the organization names, the story seems to be going pretty good so far, and seems seperate from the other SRWs completely. (SRX was in SRW@ at least, and the units aren't even complete yet, or at least aren't in the hands of the SRX team yet.) I had Psybuster/Cybuster pop up once, but it didn't stick around yet. :/ That's one unit I'm looking forward to joining after seeing it in action in the OVA. From what I remember hearing the OVA takes place after OG2, which isn't out yet, so I'll probably re-watch after getting and playing through OG2.
