Wow, people figured out how to pay more for a game that they are already getting "Day1" on Gamepass?

MS loves and thanks you!

Considering people have spent over 100 hours playing the game, that's $1 an hour for entertainment which is pretty good. Even then you're also getting one of the dlcs

Sounds like IGN and GS didn't get enough freebies or woke enough for them. Seriously you score Starfield a 7 while giving Texas Chainsaw Massacre a 9????

Oh looking at the reviewers track record of reviews no wonder, dude gave Battlefield 5 an 8......

As someone who's played Warframe on and off since its beta days, man DE really needs to get out of their comfort zone in style of gameplay. Soulframe, Warframe and Wayfinder all play exactly the same in gameplay and a live service "mmo". I really want them to make another Dark Sector game or just remaster the first one. I know Warframe 1999 is a callback to Dark Sector but damn

Fun fact "Into the Void" by Nine Inch Nails, the song in the trailer was released in 1999

I've never played an Armored Core game before, but loved Zone of the Enders. How does AC compare to ZOE?

As someone who's enjoyed other Mech games like Mechwarrior, Front Mission, Battle Tech, Xenogears, Xenoblade Chronicles X (btw Nintendo needs to re release this game asap, its honestly the best mech game). AC6 is a K-Mart version of those games/series, I've played ZoE a little and I have to say ZoE is a better Armored Core in terms of almost everything, even story.

People kept on saying AC6 is a souls mech game and besides the difficulty of AC till you find that load out to over come a mission/boss, it's probably the worst "souls wannabe" I've ever played and I looooooooooove souls type games to the point they are like crack for me.

I will say this though, the game is gorgeous and its not Folklore or Saints Row remake bad and it does have some good things going for it but its a very over praised game that many other games do better at what AC6 is trying to do. Even a game like Daemon X Machina has more going for it and does a lot of things better than what AC6 is trying to do but DxM only being on switch hurt that game pretty bad.

If I'd give a score for the 16 hours and 20 min I've put into AC6 so far its a 6.5/10 game, maybe a 7/10 at the highest.

Loving this game so far! Finally a AAA game that isn't generic or cookie cutter lol.

Uhhh so far this game on chapter 1 is the definition of generic. This game feels like a k-mart version of a mech game that doesn't hold a candle to series like Mechwarrior, Battle Tech or Front Mission.

Mechwarrior 5 does a better job at what Armored Core 6 is trying to do with its story. I'm hoping the game picks up after this chapter but damn there's nothing spectacular about this game.

Played the first 3 missions, so far its alright. Feels like its gonna be a slow burn but you can tell FS didn't spend the amount of quality they do in their souls games (specially Elden Ring) in this game.

My only grip so far is the boss arenas can go F themselves specially the first boss I can see a trend of bosses going out of the arena and still firing on you while you are just fubard trying to do range (melee feels a little op so far). Lastly the targeting is dog shit, sorry but coming from Mechwarrior 5, this games targeting is just so bad.

Oh and whoever thought it was cool to restart a mission when you die can piss off.

edit/update

On the last major boss fight for chapter 1. Honestly this game is way over praised and doesn't feel like a triple A game nor a souls game, not even a decent mech game ether. I honestly hope the story picks up cause for a game in 2023 and the only way characters talk is voice recordings or radio...its like was there no budget to make characters in this game?.

I don't know if I'm spoiled with the Mechwarrior games but damn there is like no life in this game, I have no connection to this Raven pilot nor all of these characters which are just voices. Like even the Front Mission games had characters with personalities and identities.

I'm still hoping this game picks up after this boss fight but damn this is one shallow game that so far isn't even better than Daemon X Machina on the switch.

A pirate game that doesn't look like it sucks well I'm interested. Too bad though cause it released at the worse possible time.
