  • Tired of playing Armored Core 6 the boring old regular way? Try playing it like a Roguelike. This AC6 challenge run was created by IAmNotConnie, with the help of a few other people. It aims to turn Armored Core 6 into a Roguelike, by adding a few rules you have to abide by while playing through the game. This includes the addition of permadeath, randomized equipment you will receive after completing missions, and a pretty underpowered starting AC.
    Shoutout to IAmNotConnie for making this challenge. If you want to try it out yourself: / ac6_the_roguelike_chal...

    Also if you were wondering, I had to mute the video from 16:09 to about 16:17. One of the funnier bits in the video but I got a copyright claim like 8 hours after the videos release :)

    What I really like about that is that it's people making their own fun. It's something a lot of people seem incapable of doing.

      Damn near everyone is capable of making their own fun; people generally just don't like paying $60 for something that requires extra work to have fun with.
      Note: obviously, AC6 doesn't require extra work to have fun with; just saying, from their perspective.

    I honestly think the roguelike formula would be perfect for an AC game. The original AC had elements vaguely reminiscent of a roguelike with the Human+ upgrades you got as you failed playthroughs by wracking up intense debt, which made an otherwise extremely difficult game more approachable. I think it ties in well to the Debt that was present in older games - you were constantly calculating cost and force, and finding *efficient* solutions to your missions was a very huge priority - something that was lost in this particular iteration of the franchise. In AC1, you could just blitz in with the biggest baddest weapons, and end up walking away with your job completed at a loss. AC6 wasn't like that. I understand why it wasn't, but I would love to see a proper roguelike AC. I also think roguelike qualities and your options for builds being restricted adds new value to otherwise useless parts. The biggest, baddest options cost the most money, and you don't have enough money for it all... it makes the cheaper stuff a lot more valuable.

    I've been having fun with this myself, but I had to change the rules to make repeat playthroughs actually fun after the 7th or so time.
    I roll for one part in each category (weapons, body, and system) before every run, so the first stages aren't repetitive. I also pull two parts base every mission instead of one.

    I saw the game on sale and fell in love with it. I stayed up all night when I bought it, I passed out and was almost an hour late for work on 3 hours of sleep. Funny enough, my shift manager expected me to be late and didn’t blow up my phone. Just a text while on my way to work, “are you coming in today?”

  • @tropixx_xlr1549

    This is awesome, I’ll def be playing this game tonight. Oh and I LOVE those dual homing missiles. They’re beefy, do tons of impact damage, and stick around forever. Those plus the Javelin Beta are a mean combo on a keepaway rifle build with ransetsus or Harris as primaries.
    Edit: getting pulse blade right before Balty is totally clutch. It was uncharacteristically generous of From to give us such an amazing melee weapon to start with.

    I would love for this to be a mod, Maybe make it so that the Store unlocks random parts at specific intervals, then you gotta take the risk of replaying missions to earn enough Coam to buy the parts, Also maybe make an ingame tracker for the special objectives.

      @@upper_case_T Thank you for considering it. If you (or anyone else) wants to make it more faithfully painful, start from a fresh save file (meaning you have to do the first mission and have no pre-existing part library), and don't use Quick-Boost (since it didn't exist in-game until 4th Gen.; though, I always considered it to have existed in-universe for Gen. 1-3). The latter may be much less feasible considering the "No repair kits" clause.

    I miss not having multiple save files. IMO, new game plus runs are not as fun as fresh runs. I had done everything on my first save file, except for S ranking everything but I deleted the save file just to do fresh challenge runs. (AC Data and decal data remains, fyi) Still, this does look fun.
