Mech Ratings and Ranking
Our team prides itself on performing in-depth reviews of mech media, diving into the important questions about the mechs in each thing we consider, such as: Is it mass production? How cool is the color palette? Chainsword, y/n?
Our criteria is very rigorous; we objectively give our opinions on how cool the mechs are on a scale of 1-10. Some may call this rubric lackluster, but there's no time for long checklists, pilot! We've got to launch!
Below you will find our mech ratings for everything covered by OSG so far, listed in a ranking from highest overall (averaged) score to lowest. If you have any feedback, think we're hacks or that it's rigged, please feel free to shoot us a communique so we can know your thoughts.
