    5-minute mission time limits (off umbilical cables) could potentially work well for VR where shorter session lengths are sometimes an advantage.

      Wrong. It is always the perfect time to Watch NGE

    Would love a good NGE-game, but I bet it's gonna end up like an on-rails spectacle like the Attack on Titan game. NGE is a work of art, but because of that, it also turns into a "Make money"-sticker that gets slapped on all the turds by people who can afford licensing the franchise for a marginal return.

    The real question you should ask yourself when the game is done: If you took away all the NGE-branding/lore, would the game still be fun to play and worth of praise?
