this review didnt sell me on the game...because I had already purchased it but it got me so excited to hear Joe confirm that the customization and combat is great. great review Joe.
Reminds me of Ace Combat with a lot of the story bits occurring mid mission while you’re trying to focus on all the craziness around you, I dig that though. Awesome review man, thanks for this.
I love the comparison to fighting games here. I actually have been thinking that I'd love to host locals for this game or at the very least hold weekly a d monthly online tournaments for this game. At the pvp showcase Zealous and his commentary made me feel like I was watching an FGC event. It was sick.
Good review. Gave all the info I needed to know. Good edit. Others have mentioned the audio so I'll not retread. Hope to see more. And I hope that more is Sekiro 2.
LI Joe bodied this review! I can't wait for Friday. At midnight it's a wrap. I got work in the morning to idc touching down on Rubicon. Good shit Joe this was a fire review. Got me hype!
Review is great and thanks for all the insight into this game. I hope you get to do more reviews. I have followed you for a while on here and Twitch and you really put your all in to your work. I am a small streamer and youtuber so my opinion might not be the biggest thing, I would like to give one piece of advice though. You are charismatic as hell Joe and we need to see you on these videos. It is one of your greatest strengths, when you host Evo your hype is infectious. Bring it to videos like this, seeing you pop off will make others pop off, I guarantee it.
Thanks homie I appreciate the feedback. Honestly I chose to not be in a the review. Not really for a particular reason either. Just said ehh why do I need to be in it. I get your point though. Its also the first time ever doing this so I’ll try some things different on my next chance like maybe be on camera hahaha
Just pre-ordered that shit on steam. Good job on the review Joe. Didn't feel like your first one at all. Congrats on making it as a real RUclips and twitch boy, ya heard.
Your audio mixing/balancing could use a bit of work, but otherwise this was good. (I was gonna buy it anyway because I'm a nerd), but it's good to hear you enjoyed it. Can't wait toss around some nukes and go scorched earth.
Yeah there’s some work to be done all around. For a first one it came out better than I thought. Was nervous and I don’t think I have the best equipment/set up for this stuff but did my best
As an AC fan I can't tell you how excited I am to dive into this game. We've been waiting too long, man! Thanks for the lighthearted review. Have you played AC much before this one?
I sure have 1 2 and 3. I stopped after that. I was trying to not talk About the old games in the review. I feel like that’s going to be such a talking point in most videos that I did my best to avoid it. I wanted it to be about THIS game. Not everything else
@@thisislijoe Ha, that's awesome! I had a feeling you may have played some of the classics just based on how you spoke on spending time in the garage and your enjoyment of it. Definitely a feeling I've had in older games. I played 2 to 3 heavy and then 4/5 less. I can respect that decision for the review and think it may have been a good call especially since the amount of people that would have the context of playing the old games is significantly overshadowed by the amount of new eyes and interest in this one. Looking forward to playing this weekend! Thanks for the content, Joe. 👍🏽
Thanks for the review! I've been looking forward to this game for a while. Is there any advice that you'd give to some-one who has never played any of the Armoured Core games before?
Thank homie! The one thing I will say is don’t get caught up on 1 thing with your AC. Try everything! Don’t settle. I can’t express how much your experience will change by doing something so simple like changing your guns
First time seeing a video of yours. Excellent review. You give much more crucial information on how combat feels than any of the other reviews I read and saw. And I needed info like to decide whether to pre-order or not, so thanks :) One thing I'm also very interested in is this: Is it worth hunting for gear scattered on the maps mid mission?
You know I forgot to say that because I only found a few. It really depends on your style but I haven’t found much that made me really want to hunt for it. The maps are pretty big and how well/quick you do on missions changes your grade I believe. On top of that, some of the missions are pretty empty if you go off the path Which is where you find most the stuff
I feel like i will also be stubborn and keep the same build when struggling on a boss 😂 i just love banging my head against the wallvon bosses in fromsoft games
I'm not sure why, but most reviewers always forget to mention, of which is causing contention with those players who don't like the Hard Lock-on. The Hard Lock is not 100% accurate and there is a floating reticle that moves a lot if you're not within the Optimal distance of your weapons and FCS causing a ton of missed shots. The Soft lock is more accurate BUT you need to actively move your camera of which can hamper your movement (specially if you're not so well versed on it). Hard Lock simply allows you to concentrate on your movements better and just enable's you to be more aggressive to a single target.
How many hours was your playthrough? Sorry if I missed it in the review. I'm hearing a wild range of hours from reviewers to From Soft themselves. Thx!
this review didnt sell me on the game...because I had already purchased it but it got me so excited to hear Joe confirm that the customization and combat is great. great review Joe.
This is a smart man right here!
Look at Joe making moves. Great review and glad you were given this opportunity man. Love seeing good people get rewarded
Brilliant review - only one that mentioned how you could use builds of ACs defeated in the arena. Earned a sub
Thanks a ton really appreciate it the support. Hopefully I get more chances to do this stuff

For the algorithm! I will watch and listen later tho. Congrats on the review Joe! Hope you enjoyed the game and the process!
Good review. Gave all the info I needed to know. Good edit. Others have mentioned the audio so I'll not retread.

Nice video
Combat akin to fighting games AND Souls style bosses. Joe, why is FromSoft so good to us? :,)
The greatest of all time!
Greetings! Thank you for video. How long does it take you to beat the game?
I’ll be honest I’m only about 75% done. I took my time since making this video was a priority.
How many hours was your playthrough? Sorry if I missed it in the review. I'm hearing a wild range of hours from reviewers to From Soft themselves. Thx!
