Too fantastical.


* The titular Sentinels of ''VideoGame/ThirteenSentinelsAegisRim'', while being 30 feet tall metal behemoths piloted with the pilot's mind, are treated somewhat realistically: the most heavily armed among them, the Generation 2 and Generation 3 Sentinels, are also the heaviest due to the sheer amount of missiles, mounted gatlings and railguns installed within them, and their designs are no-nonsense war machines that lack any particular visual design quirks a Super Robot would have; even the most advanced and futuristic Sentinel, the flying Generation 4, still looks somewhat odd and pragmatic in their sleeker, lighter design, and instead of having any sort of jet engines or thrusters it has massive rotary blades like a humanoid-shaped helicopter. [[spoiler: This is all because the Sentinels themselves were made by basically copying and mish-mashing design elements of the Deimos, which themselves were originally autonomous terraforming machines.]] Also, controlling a giant mecha with your mind, even if through nanomachines, [[SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome isn't going to be particularly healthy in the long run]]. Thus the pilots have to step down every few minutes of piloting to avoid Brain Overload.
