The Lily part was bad. Probably had the lines all recorded with an extended cutscene that got edited down, but they didn't have time to rerecord the lines to make more sense in the post-edit sequence. Because if they did rerecord the lines, it wouldn't just be for one language, but for 8.
It's kind of like that scene in The Dark Knight Rises. People speculated that the scene was edited out of order and that's why it seemed odd. I don't know if there was ever a reason why it was sequenced that way.
As for the machines thing, Lily says at one point that she thinks of humans as part machine. The game hints at "humans" like EVE and Lily not being humans as we, the players, would understand them to be. So, you should've figured that out early on, before the characters did. It's the "twist" that people saw coming that didn't land very well. But that's a minor issue imo since it's less about whether they are human and what you define as human.
Because if you think the Naytiba are human because they posses human DNA, even though they've become monstrous in form and function, that's hard to swallow. On the other hand, EVE and Lily and the Andro-Eidos exhibit all the qualities of humanity, both good and bad, even though they lack any human DNA. So, which one is more human is probably the better question.
Of course, if you just played through the game once, only bothered with the voiced cutscenes and ignored most of the memory sticks and documents and other text-based lore scattered about the game, I can see your dissatisfaction with the narrative experience of Stellar Blade. It's less a movie game in that sense, because if you want a full understanding of the story, you need to work to get it.
