this Games story is so well written the destruction mode is lackluster but the story is so incredible I didn’t really notice it.
This game kept me on the edge of my seat. While it's not the cleanest storytelling in a game, it still delivered a narrative that made me want to connect the dots and dig into the mystery even further. The characters were all fun to know and play as, but a bit flat by the end of the game.
Una trama y un guión soberanos que enlazan a la perfección 13 historias de 13 personajes completamente diferentes.

While looking perhaps a bit too ambitious on the surface with two distinctly different gameplay elements, 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim is a captivating sci-fi adventure with great characters set across multiple periods of time. There is no question that the game will have people very confused during the first few hours, but the split story really starts to come together and is well worth playing through to unravel the ongoing mysteries found throughout.
Had Vanillaware crafted a title where the story and the action wove into one another flawlessly, we'd be looking at the greatest game the developer has ever made, without question. Unfortunately, that's not what this game is, and while what is here is great, it's crushing to see just how close 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim came to perfection.
As 13 Sentinels remains one of the most intriguing releases in recent years and a game that's been slept on by a large number of people turned off by its anime or mecha-inspired origins. Underneath that coat is a resonant tale spanning generations and dealing with some interesting, innovative subject matter - and 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim comes highly recommended to anyone as a result.
