if you think mechs being piloted by a neutral link is even half as cool as manual controls, you're a fucking fool. i would 100% of the time have some jackass puppeteer a metal frame in a futile attempt to make it emulate human movement over achieving perfect human/machine synchronicity. pacific rim you get an exception

pacific rim has the same number of steps getting in your way as manual controls because it replaced "figuring out how to connect to the machine" with "figuring out how to connect to your drift buddy"

in reply to @senegart's post:

honestly, probably not, unless you assume the mech designers are incredibly reckless and put out an unsafe, unfinished product with major problems

which, to be fair, happens a lot in mecha shows

any remotely sensible system is going to have a limit on how much juice is actually going to get sent down the neural link, and any outside force capable of bypassing or forcing past that limit is probably going to cause a bunch of other damage too
