It's so pathetic every time a discussion about From Software comes up and you fags have to make it abundantly clear you never heard of them before Dark Souls. Go ahead and pop open Wikipedia. Take a look at the number of Armored Core games.
Grayson Martinez
They have similar core mechanics, wow that’s all
Owen Diaz
forgot Dark Souls skyrim edition
Jace Sullivan
why would you change perfection
Justin Morgan
From does this with all of their franchises, newfag
Carson Wood
Five King's Field games. 20 Armored Core games. Yeah, man. Yeah.
Jaxon Roberts
>projecting Armored Core is shit retroactively given praise by hipsters who don't want people knowing they grew up on AAA consoleshit like MGS and Halo.
Tenchu SA was the real deal, second best stealth game in 98 behind Thief.
Adam Reyes
>Armored Core is shit "No." >AAA consoleshit like MGS and Halo. Hoo boy you're really not worth speaking to, sweetie. Sayonara.
Josiah Smith
>recycle assets >not have to start from scratch >get praised everywhere for it >easy design document I'm not really seeing the downside for the developer. But hey I loved some classic Armored Core back on PS1, sorta left mechwarrior for gundam as it went on but still not bad just aimed at a difference audience.
Christopher Richardson
>Conceding your a poser bitch by defending movieshit and dudebro garbage
Try to seem like you actually played the games when you're doing your contrarian shitposting.
Gavin Adams
i am sure miyazaki is wiping away his tears with fat stacks of yen bills
Samuel Perry
wow you knew about them before their most popular game ever? you're so cool bro! at last you are not a loser anymore and have achieved something of significance.
Mason Garcia
i just want chromehounds back
Colton Morgan
The sad thing is, the games aren't even that good. I played all the souls games, 3 came out, I didn't even try it. I'm so tired of the games, they're so uninteresting. Here's a boss, time to learn 3-4 attack patterns and spam roll for 5 minutes.
The lore is 10% complete, the rest is literally 'lol whatever you imagine xd' The game has literally no appeal other than the challenge. And the game is only ever challenging if you gimp yourself with a meme build on purpose and/or don't use summons.
Games all used to be along the same difficulty lines as Souls, it was just expected of games to be challenging. Now games are either challenging for the sake of being challenging and nothing else, or complete braindead 'follow the quest markers xd' shitfests. Game design is not a thing anymore. And because of the new internet/streatmer/youtube generation, these 'difficult' games all get a lot of traction.

I pity you being a PC newfag and thinking FromSoft's only interesting franchise is Souls.
>post 3rd generation i don't know mate you can emulate the goods for free
Justin Jackson
This is unironically the best game From Software ever made.
Joshua Jenkins
You and me brother, I miss playing retarded builds, like banzai mech with the blade cannons in a scout frame Fun times
Camden Lee
What's the aztec edition supposed to mean?
Angel Powell
is it actually good and not just nostalgia bait
James Adams
I pity them too, all that money must be hard to carry.
Jeremiah Lee
If you do something well should you stop doing it just for the sake of trying to appease some asshole who doesn't like it to begin with?
Landon Ortiz
Armored Core on the PS2 was great.
Henry Williams
they dont remake the assets every time, they just fix up the code so it runs well on other hardware. are you really that dumb? or...
Brody Foster
you didn't answer my question was armored core 1 good?
Caleb Sanders
Never played it.
Leo Cooper
They should be used to it
Tyler Parker
*crickets*
Nicholas Davis
That's not Master of Arena
Ian Lopez
i liked the customization in the armored core games and the gameplay is pretty fun like dragonball fighting games style of fighting. i say its a good game yea. i never played all the armored core games except 2 of them and they were fundamentally the same with just graphical updates
Elijah Cook
They're all garbage games though.
Xavier Flores
Don't pretend that the King's Field games are good. I love them but you in order to enjoy them you need to be a masochist. Not a "this game is so hard, I love it" masochist but a "this game is so bad, I love it" masochist.
Daniel Lopez
>picked up armored core 2 as a kid because I loved robots and mecha (still do) >the environments are gigantic, making you feel like your mech is puny >moves like it's on fucking roller skates and every enemy you fight is the same size as you
ZoE was the same shit. I'm sure they're good games, but it was disappointing to realize that they could've swapped the mechs with an exosuit and it would feel exactly the same.
Parker Sullivan
They did make Ninja Gaiden: Not Bullshit edition, but only three people bought it.
Leo Jackson
Yeah no the amount of QTE's was bullshit and the rewind effect got nauseating
Noah Hughes
I cant believe the same people who made AC or Souls made this shit.
Parker Roberts
I dont exactly pity them considering they made mad bank on souls, but i feel a little sorry that they finally tasted success with it, and now they have to choose between either keep milking the undead cow and stay relevant and popular or return to their roots or try something new, most likely fail (because let's be honest, none of their previous series were that big, at best they were decently "niche") and go back to their obscurity and low budget for games.
Even worse that the possibility of kadokawa who owns them now start breathing down their necks for more souls in case their new projects bombs. It's shitty but that's the price you pay for popularity.
Oliver Edwards
it's not natural to want to be a towering death machine so I'm glad that it's a niche market
Logan Phillips
Imagine being that retarded.
Wyatt Reyes
>thinks NB's QTEs were bullshit I've got news for you son...
Ryan Jackson
It's not good, Armored Core doesn't get good until 3 and it stops being good at For Answer.
Zachary Harris
I played it for the first time last year and it easily became my favorite PS1 game. Not nostalgia bait, but you do have to get used to controls that don't offer analog. Thankfully you can remap them any way you want.
William Morris
idiot, they dont give a fuck theyre rich. theyll gladly churn out the same product as long as you peasants keep buying. they print money bitch
They used to make some nice games back in the day, I've always loved some Kings Field, and Shadow Tower, but I don't think that shit would fly today.
Luke Cruz
>Armored Core Awesome
>Armored Core: Project Phantasma Great extension of original game
>Armored Core: Master Of Arena Good but felt repetitive at points
>Armored Core 2 Next-gen upgrade but fell flat in many areas, such as enemies were not satisfying to destroy and the HEAT mechanic
>Armored Core 2: Another Age Expansion on 2, but got tiring quicky. One cool thing about it was the nostalgia bosses
>Armored Core 3 Huge overhaul and improvement over 2, and added neat stuff like exceed orbit cores
>Armored Core 3: Silent Line One of the best in the whole series, and a god-tier theme
>Armored Core: Nexus Good but had some issues, also nerfing many machine guns and some of the remake old missions were not executed that well
I did not get to play the following couple but I found that 4 didnt feel like it was armored core anymore and I hated the post-process effects. Heard For Answer was real good, and then heard that V was terrible.
Christian Butler
Can someone tell me about it because I missed it in its entirety.
Juan Powell
Not as sad as posting the same shit over and over without anyone even forcing you to.
Christopher Moore
Came here to post this.
The distorted xbox microphone voices with this playing is all coming back to me.
TENCHU WAS MADE BY ACQUIRE YOU FUCKING POSER LMAO AT UR LIFE DELETE UR THREAD YOU FUCKING EMBARRASSMENT
Jack Sanders
LITERALLY KILL YOURSELF YOU FUCKING 14 YEAR OLD POSER
Lucas Brown
>tenchu >any good
Isn't this the "stealth" game where you can madly run to the end of the map through 9 out the 10 maps without stealth at all since the enemies are slower than you and the game objective is simply going from point A to point B?
