It has no woke stuff. NONE. It is great, and the DLCs are amazing. I am currently playing through "Legend of the Kestrel Lancers" and it one hell of a campaign! It has a dynamic campaign, and when you are done, you can still act like a mercenary throughout the galaxy.

Edit: you need to mod it to become good. Including better effects, sounds, and FOV. Mechlab is also important. Another suggestion is the mod to make the paint more matte than shiny.
Joystick set up is a pain too. And no TrackIR. But for a game where it's last release was MW4, it is not bad.
Woah freebirth! do not put such such a travesty on us……jk
Yeah it’s not the best mechwarrior game. I imagine it would be better if you play with a group of friends for lance mates rather than using the ai. The AI is stupid and costs you more in repairs than the mission’s contract was going to pay out. And they have that dumb tonnage limit on missions that I instantly modded out. If you do get it. Get a friend to play it with you.
The AI is dumb and will try to follow you far too hard.
AFAICT there is no point in putting an AI mechwarrior in a long range mech or missile boat. They will follow you into the heat of battle and get fucked. You cannot be in a long range mech because all events only trigger when you get close.
I learned that the hard way hahaha
Modding is absolutely a must on MW5. I should have mentioned that hahaha
