One of the Hottest News from Last Week is that Chinese Developer Amazing Seasun Games has Released a Demo Version on Steam for Mecha Break – a Third-Person Shooter Game where Players Control Robots in Intense Battles.
This free demo quickly garnered positive feedback from players. The player count reached an astonishing peak of 317,522 according to SteamDB, indicating that it is indeed a notable demo version.
However, the Developer Amazing Seasun Games Still Faces Challenges Despite Their Joyful Achievement.
Although it ranks among the most-played demo versions on Steam, following only the beta test of Monster Hunter Wilds and PUBG: Test Server, the feedback from players has not been overwhelmingly positive. In fact, the game’s rating has significantly declined, with only 33% of ratings being positive. According to SteamDB, Mecha Break has received only 1,158 positive reviews compared to 2,351 negative ones.
Many reviews have pointed out that despite the beta version of Mecha Break being quite impressive, numerous elements have changed in this demo release. Most notably, issues regarding microtransaction practices have emerged, leading to concerns over the balance of power and a pay-to-win model that may discourage players. Alongside the developer’s profit-driven focus, other games are also under scrutiny for needing to establish a more balanced in-game economy.
Currently, Mecha Break still has a long way to go before its official release slated for the end of this year. These ratings might serve as a wake-up call for the developer Amazing Seasun Games, and if no significant changes occur, Mecha Break may struggle to achieve success.
