Armored Core 2 Review - The RETROspective

[@nomurakando]

Love your content. I discovered via your GBAssault 2 and had to subscribe as soon as I knew you review many Armored Core content

Oh neat! I’m playing through gen 3 of armored core right now. I’m in the process of S ranking every mission in 3Portable right now. (Using the true dual analog patch, I know) and man. With me also going through the Ace Combat series, damn the s ranks are extremely EXTREMELY inconsistent and it’s so fucking annoying especially compared to the Ace Combat series, where the S rank requirements are simple or well documented (the Armored Core wiki is fucking trash btw)

Nice! I had a lot of fun with the Gen 3 games back in the day so I'm looking forward to revisiting them. I've never focused on getting S ranks though. Haven't ever played an Ace Combat game either.

@@FiresideGamingReviews You should! Ace Combat games are fun, even though it’s a game where you fly fighter jets, it’s way more on the Arcade-y side of things rather than a sim

Oh man. Started looking up Ace Combat and stumbled onto the UGSF Timeline. Didn't know about all sorts of Bandai Namco games being in a shared universe. Luckily it looks like you can ignore the connections and just play whatever. So I'll probably add Ace Combat to my series to check out.
