I have slow, blocky mechs which are similarly used for urban or very uneven environments. They tend to be slow and used as either indirect fire support or a heavy weapon hardpoint rather than frantically running around do cool mech combat.
My cheat is that in-universe there is a mech fighting league that is basically just WWE wrestling. Expensive mechs that can be more humanoid and have crazy paintjobs. Just like WWE the fights are staged and full of intricate nonsense storylines. The mechs fire low powered but visually impressive weapons at each other and pyrotechnic panels on the hit mechs explode spectacularly.
I have this league in my back pocket if I ever want some crazy mech combat I can just take one of these mechs and put it in a circumstance where it fights for real.
