NEW FOOTAGE LOOKS AMAZING

[Call Sign: Raven]

Thanks Oro!

So a few content creators got flown out to try a 5 hour demo of the first chapter, and boy does it look great! Enjoy the footage, everyone! I think Fighting Cowboy and Vaati also put some up footage, along with other content creators!

Hopefully we get a shot at a demo version before release. I was half-expecting a demo announcement at the end of the gameplay trailer when they said they invite players to take it on for themselves.

Yeah, looks like the fears were unfounded imo.

That's pretty much AC but with 10 years of game design experience piled onto it.

I also noticed that the hard lock so many people complain about seems to break with line of sight so far, so no amount of hard lock will help you if an enemy can actually use cover.

There's going to be a demo in set shops in Japan I'm close to a couple so I'll be able to play a little in a couple day's

Same, that would be amazing!

They almost always are :)

Very happy that we will all be able to experience this. The game looks like it's going to be something very special!

Yea I'm going to get a sticker set & a poster as well.

Mostly through Vatti's video on it now.

I have virtually zero complaints, though I might wind up having to fiddle with control customization since I'm not 100% down with all 4 weapons being bound on the shoulder buttons, might swap the shoulder weapon bindings with Jump and Quick Boost, claw gripping for the more one-tap shoulder weapons might be preferable to me.

[Emerald Lance]

I'm used to the triggers being used for movement and for the face buttons being used for weapons. So it will take some getting used to for me. I'm sure I'll be able to acclimatize though.

I heard another piece from an interview somebody did as well.

Apparently the game is split into 5 chapters with some Last Raven/For Answer style branching, it was said by a dev that the footage that players were allowed to use (bits from a few missions up to 11) was about 20% of the game, extrapolating that we can picture that means a single playthrough may take about 50 missions as a fair guess (10 or so per chapter).

When factoring any branches or other endings (assuming they're not strictly just for flavor and do lead to different missions entirely) this is going to be a surprisingly meaty game overall.

[Kinetika]

that latest trailer was amazing and the game feels like good ol' AC :D OST sounds promising too!

i was trying to keep my hype low but all my fears have been put to rest :)

This is the most armored core 6 gameplay I've ever seen

In the first 37 seconds, I can already see that I will like the game. I'll stop the video there though .

Of course, I'll be waiting for a sale myself, as I'm sure that the game is still going to nerf the ability to do Human Plus builds and probably nerf the machine gun, and maybe the radiator. I'll keep an eye on the forums and updates though just the same, and may even change my mind as I learn more, we'll see.

You're probably gonna be waiting for a pretty long time, can't remember how long it took for Elden Ring's first sale to happen but it was not quick and not a deep first sale.

As for Human Plus...I don't think that's even confirmed to be a thing at the moment, there's no radiator either and that is confirmed (stagger has replaced heat buildup essentially).
