I think it comes down to Westerners like perhaps you but most definitely me just seeing them as big fuck-off robot games, while their Japanese designers and various hangers-on presumably see them as simulations of some vast body of cartoons/comic books/vinyl statuary to which we're triumphantly ignorant. Like, I'm sure there's an equivalent even in Lost Planet to the steering wheel on your overpowered FWD car in Gran Turismo pulling hard left under heavy acceleration, but I'll be damned if I could tell you what it is. Maybe those inexplicably long stagger-on-hit animations all our best reviewers moaned about? I bet they make perfect sense within the broader subcultural context of Zionist Stormtrooper: Endless Trip.
