no, this game sucks hardcore. Boss fights are impossible Sekiro ripoffs. It's ridiculous. The stagger mechanic added to this is a war crime and the dumbest thing I've ever seen in my life.

? rofl, dude can't dodge stuff he should be dodging.

I don't know if it's as good as 4A, I haven't played it, but this game feels fantastic to me, just to counterbalance the random negativity/frustration.

Yeah doesn't surprise me they just added different robot skins to their cash cow Dork Souls. From Software has been dead for a decade and will never recover thanks to Americans and their obsession with Souls.

I played Last Raven/ AC 4 and AC 4A. I have also finished my first playthrough on AC6 and am now on NG+. I've never played a Souls game prior to this for any length of time due to not liking how clunky it is.

This is my favorite installment in the AC series. Amazing game. Yes the boss fights have been modernized to Fromsoft standards, but there's still plenty of that old AC feel in all of it.

Most of the complaints I'd say are probably from people who played AC1/2/3/LR and already didn't like 4/4A. Since the combat in AC6 is far closer to AC 4 than 4 is to any of the previous titles.

But word of advice, I would be careful picking it up if you do not like spending time to learn a fight. I come from 10 years of Mythic+ wow raiding so wiping to a boss over and over has me numb already nbd lmao.

Edit: Based on your reply above though it sounds like it might not be for you if you already hold an opinion like that :P

Fromsoft is doing just fine without you, actually!

Dead to the world.

PvP maybe but that's it. Boss fights are a ripoff from dark souls III or something and it's unfun considering you have to Gatling + Blade spam in a constant cycle for 1 hour. Bosses need a change

The best way to describe this game is 4th gen and 5th gen armored core elements were fused together and taken to make a Sekiro game with mechs.

No, 4A is significantly better.
Felix Aug 25, 2023 @ 1:07pm 
4a was pretty trash, this game feels a little bit better, though its been years. Not as good as Ac 3 though.

Make "skill issue" comments and then follow it up by not knowing anything about the AC franchise at all. Genius 101 writing here.

I'm basically that second paragraph tbh. This is not the AC I remember. Way too modernized (too appease their specific niche fanbase.)

Compared to For answer... Can't go as wildly quick boosting around. You'll have to stop and come down eventually, no forever flying. Similar to the early regulations. There are no shoulder weapons, no radar from what I can tell. Tuning is simplified and changed, you don't get to put points, rather you install chips that enable certain new functions or moves. Such as quick turn and manual aim, they are tuning chip upgrades. Some weapons are only available for certain hand, haven't been able to find blade for right hand yet. Granted I'm not sure how far in the campaign I am yet so these things may change.

Movement is different, it feels like you are piloting juiced up hardballer from Lost planet series rather than NEXT. All melee weapons stop you for second similar to "donkey punch" no quick swipe with laser blade and boosting away in one smooth motion, "here comes my strong attack".

"Bossfights" you can hardly use your superior mobility. They can turn faster than you and their "cone of attack" is way bigger than it should be. Certain boss will nail you with its grenade launcher, no matter where you are if you don't quick boost when you hear the "attack in coming warning".

Rather than having certain weapons stagger you, you now have stun bar. Some weapons effect it more than others.

Nothing like For Answer, only real similarity are the parts which are almost identical to AC4 and For Answer. So you can get pretty close in cosmetics making your old NEXT, but the game is entirely different. Personally going in thinking "I liked AC X because X" is simply setting up yourself for disappointment. If you like armored core as series, you'll probably enjoy it. But if you enjoy specific armored core game for its certain feature sets, you are likely going to be disapointed with AC6, it has ALOT of similarities but plays differently.

short answer No

but i just got off Ac4a and the resolution and performance was actually trash its nice to play an ac at 4k 120fps
