    I liked your review even though I have not played the game. Some of the more well known reviewers seamed to forget about the story or were underwhelmed by its presentation in the game. I think that by now the gaming community is ok with not being spoon fed in terms of a story and the type of game you are playing largely determines how the story is presented. An example might be COD for instance, people play those games for a variety of reasons and story is not necessarily at the top of that list.
    TLDR: I want to pilot a big machine with big guns that goes fast and blows stuff up, the story can come later.

    What if I told you there was another group of people? A rare group, but it's there, myself included. Those who were drawn in by Daemon X Machina, we found Armored Core through that, some of us. Or at least that's how I found it. (Same for Zone of The Enders, actually.) Even so, I too plan on going to Rubicon. I'll see you there, Ravens.
    (Although, I guess in a way, my increased interest in DxM actually stemmed from Ace Combat X, specifically. And I mention X because that and X2/ Joint Assault were the only games I played at the time, but I digress.)

      I've heard as low as 16hrs for a single playthrough but he said he had already played through the first chapter and sped through it. Others said up to 30 hrs. With that said it has multiple endings, new game plus has added parts, and you can't play every mission in a single playthrough.

      @MaidenlessScrub 10 месяцев назад

      Anyone classified as an AC pilot is augmented. There will be battles against other ACs, but yeah, most other mechs or vehicles have normal humans piloting them.
      ACs aren’t that hard to come by and the pilots’ skills differ vastly. You will even find AC wrecks all over the game, indicating that while you’re more advanced, you’re not invincible.

    This has no link to any SoulsRikg games at all. It's tru and tested armored core a bit more use friendly but still AC. I like how people are trying to get into the series thinking r'it could have any small link to any souls game, by any means it has none and the review stating it could have already goes too far. No it really doesn't and can't. Those are two very different games for different zudien. People woke up and discovered From Software yesterday. It happens don't mistake the games for being the only thing they make.

      That's like saying, "This isn't a vehicle, it's a car." They are, at heart, mechs. The terminology used in Armored Core is AC, but they are also later upgraded to be called "Armored Core NEXTs". Semantics, it's all the same.

      expensive doesn't mean good all the time for AC games. That also includes AC6. Stats matter and its function, and most good stuff are either killing enemy AC, hidden chest or getting an S rank on that mission, and sometimes some stuff you can only get when you new game+

    • @johnfink9020
      @johnfink9020 10 месяцев назад

      Yup. However, just bc you have an AC that has parts worth 1mill credits, if you cant pilot your AC worth a damn, you wont win. Weight and energy consumption have been a bane for the ACs pilot for decades.
      Also, i can speak from experience about this: Just bc you have a heavy AC fitted with heavy parts, a lighweight AC with a good pilot can wreak you.
