Mecha Break’s Bathroom Drama: When Your Pilot’s Bodysuit Meets a Broken Sink
Mecha Break’s Futuristic Bathroom Has One Big Flaw
If you’ve been enjoying Mecha Break as much as I have, you probably love its attention to detail—from the deep character customization to the variety of Strikers you can pilot. Everything in the game feels polished and thoughtfully designed. Well, almost everything. There’s one glaring oddity: the sink in your pilot’s quarters doesn’t work.
- Explore your pilot’s personal quarters and bathroom
- Fully functional shower and toilet scenes
- But no working sink or handwashing animation
- Pilot uses the restroom fully clothed in a skin-tight bodysuit
- Raises questions about hygiene in a futuristic dropship
Living in the Dropship: What Works and What Doesn’t
When you’re not in battle, you can roam around your pilot’s living space on the dropship. Here, your pilot can relax, use their PC, or enjoy the bathroom amenities. The shower is fully functional and even has a cutscene showing your pilot bathing—although privacy glass and steam keep things modest. The toilet also has a cutscene, but this one is surprisingly weird: your pilot remains fully clothed in a skin-tight bodysuit, which has no obvious openings for bathroom use.
This raises a pretty funny but also unsettling thought—are pilots really using the restroom through their suits? Unless Mecha Break has some kind of stillsuit technology, that bodysuit must be a walking septic tank.
The Sink That Doesn’t Sink
Here’s the kicker: the sink doesn’t actually work. Unlike the shower and toilet, interacting with the sink just makes it fold in and out of the wall, like a Murphy bed. There’s no water, no handwashing animation, nothing. This means after your pilot “uses” the restroom, they can’t wash their hands unless they take a full shower.
Considering how hard pilots work, sweating it out in their Striker cockpits, this seems like a serious oversight. How are they supposed to maintain hygiene on the ship? It’s almost a Space OSHA violation!
In the words of the author, “If you’re going to force my poor pilot to poop in a one-piece, skin-tight bodysuit — and make me watch while it happens — at least give her a working sink to wash her hands in afterwards.”
