I'm sort of curious as to how the developers are supposed to "change this series up." If the average enemy had more than half a brain, it might affect the gameplay in any kind of way, ranging from mild to significantly. The never-changing brainless AI seems to have worked over the years, even though it has led to consistently poor reviews by most critics. The melee combat itself is well done, in my opinion (at least for the mobile suits that aren't mass-produced) although if something could be done about the ranged attacks (machine guns, beam cannons, rocket launchers) then I agree, that aspect of the gameplay should be altered to make the ranged attacks somewhat useful. If I recall correctly, the first DW: Gundam game received a 6 or so, and I think it was reviewed by the same person, so I've been wondering why the score this time 'round was lower even though there are "major improvements over the last game" and the only significant fault is that the gameplay is the same as it always is. As one OXM editor said about Halo 3, a 10 in 2007 isn't a 10 in 2009. That was well said, and I suppose that might apply here, too. Anyway I will continue to love this game regardless of the score, LOL.
