i think they would look terrible when they are made out of blocks
because if only certain points move you would have an robot sort of hovering with one foot on lower ground bodys not in sync with their legs
melee fighting would be a pain because your arms could only move so far
so im defintley in favor of crafting in parts

Like 90% of his inventory is composed of cool block-based mechs.

I think we have a fairly competent team of devs capable of coding the movement so that mechs don´t look that crap when moving.

He thinks on block-built mechs there will be some missplacement of joints because of different hight levels beneath different feet.

Ah. Maybe the degree of movement of joints will be dependent upon the difference in elevation of the blocks?
