Oh fuck, and then you had to remind me of THAT guy…
Man, as hard as they were, some of those bosses really are staggeringly good. Once the bugs got fixed, I never really felt like the fights were particularly unfair, and some of them like STRIDER were downright fun. Then again, STRIDER reminded me so much of AC4A that I couldn’t help but adore it. That whole mission felt like a love letter to 4A.
It’s funny how fuzzy my memory is about this game, but I know I haven’t played it since right after it came out. I remember that I did multiple playthroughs to get the true ending though, if that counts.
Yeah that’s what I was wondering about. The multiple endings are so fuckin worth it.
I really hope they do a sequel to this one, because I rank it second best out of the whole series (behind AC4A, of course). Hopefully, that sequel brings back weapon arms and the ability to equip multiple melee weapons, but even if it doesn’t, I’d still play the shit out of it.
This was my first AC, so I don’t have any frame of reference, but I thought it was great and hope so too. That being said, my favorite FromSoft title (Sekiro) never got a sequel, so I’ve been hurt before.
If you liked this one, I strongly encourage you to get a PS3 emulator and give Armored Core For Answer a try. The menu music alone makes it worth the setup. https://youtu.be/lf6vg4jMvhY

I was using the shotguns a lot, and I think a balance patch nerfed them later, so maybe I got by easier than I should’ve.
…talking about this is making me want to replay.
Same lol. I just reinstalled it. Time for playthrough number 4, I guess.
Have you done more than one playthrough?

I need to go back through the favorites for sure. I’ve heard good things about that one.
