YMMV / Dawn of the Monsters

Go To

  • Complacent Gaming Syndrome: One Augment you'll probably always have equipped is Cower, which stuns other enemies when you perform an Execution. This is extremely useful, and unlike other stun moves it works on bosses.
  • Complete Monster: Conrad Fosco is the former CEO of Syncor and the Commander-in-Chief of DAWN. While maintaining an affable front, Fosco seeks to indefinitely prolong the war against the Nephilim so that Syncor can profit off the increased demand for weapons and ATOM mechs. Stealing Dr. Goro Maki's research into the Nephilim and having him disappeared, Fosco has Syncor build sonic emitters to lure Nephilim into attacking major cities like Toronto, Cairo, and Tokyo. When Syncor's treachery is discovered, Fosco has DAWN commander Captain Claire Lionne killed before she can expose his duplicity. Exploiting an ancient prophecy to open a portal to the Nephilim's home dimension, Fosco reveals he intends to run both sides of the war to maximize Syncor's profits and doesn't care that the Nephilim could destroy what remains of human civilization in the process.
  • Spiritual Adaptation: It wouldn't take much to turn Dawn into Pacific Rim the Game. Heck, Tempest Galahad even follows the naming conventions of the Jaegers.
  • That One Boss: Sednagon is probably the most difficult Monarch to get an S rank one due to its high mobility, multiple invincibility moves and devastating charge moves.
