About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you’re a longtime Robotech fan who wants more space-war action and doesn’t mind a story that assumes prior knowledge; Not for you if you need a fully standalone plot or a clear ending like The Last Starfighter.
Pros: nostalgic continuation; upgraded mecha visuals; familiar voices | Cons: confusing without backstory; thin character depth; rushed, cliffhanger feel
