Different voice lines of Walter and ALLMIND at the beginning of every new game | Armored Core 6

[@candygarden5029]

that cheeky "welcome back, raven" gets me every time

[@chromosomedcollector]

Allmind wants some meat

[@DeaconBlu35]

Genuinely terrified me the first time, I was used to allmind just being this emotionless ai menu interface but once it started talking like a human I started freaking the fuck out

[@humha7613]

Imagine in NG++++ instead of All Mind it's Iguazu. "Huh, who's this new hire? Raven... well whatever. Welcome to Rubicon."

[@RealLifeAlias]

Armored core but every ng+ a character gets their voice changed to iguazu's

[@xx_amongus_xx6987]

@@RealLifeAlias Agh, that noise is back

[@conjo8884]

every dlc is just a NG+ but someone else is doing something fucky. Iguazu somehow gets a coral waifu and Volta survives The Wall, Balam gains superiority over Arquebus, and Michigan dunks on Iguazu for being a C-simp as Nile investigates the rubiconians. "G-13, you're not gonna tell me you have a virtual body pillow like G-5? This little field trip isn't meant for tag-alongs, you two. Now get to it, maggots"

[@crawler0095]

just iguazu just iguazu just iguazu

[@Yorishiriamori]

NG+++++ we just hear the ringing iguazu keeps hearing throughout the whole game

[@boi8328]

idk if I'm crazy but, Walter sounds a bit more friendlier on NG+ and NG++ when he says his usual "I picked up some work for you" lines.

[@holmesholmes.8784]

it sound like he got used to saying it

[@winterdragon2004]

"You've returned... welcome back Raven". Hearing that the moment i started NG+ sent a slight chill down my spine. I wasnt expecting how... human ALLMIND sounded, especially right after what amounted to a time reset.

[@klortikterra4423]

plus (if you picked the endding involving Fire's) the absolute bullshit you just faced and the resulting euphoria

[@OKtheChannel]

ng++++++++++++++++++++ Iguazu goes to therapy, starts apreciating you as the role-model, and starts going on missions with you to learn how to be a great pilot.

[@JACKMAN9988]

“You’ve got plenty of experience. Should be ready for all that Rubicon has to throw at you” this lines makes you feel so badass

[@dokutah7374]

There should be a new game+++ It’s exactly the same as new game++, but Allminds voice is replaced entirely by Iguazu mocking you

[@haydentravis3348]

After beating NG++ you should unlock cheat mode, with like big head and golden gun, but like one at the bottom that's just, "Iguazu mode." And it replaces every voiced line in the game with Iguazu mocking you.

[@kirbyis4ever]

We need the "Iguazu everywhere" system where he pops up to try to kick your ass mid mission every so often.

[@bansho7076]

Did any of you long time AC fans feel something the first time you heard "Welcome back, Raven."?

[@bombomos]

It's like that feeling you get when you walk back into your room at your parents house and nothing has changed. It's like being transported back 20 years to your childhood... it feels good

[@treesome3979]

Oh yes, I smiled like an idiot for a good 30 seconds

[@FFKonoko]

Yep. The moment that last licence showed up, knew it, but still.

[@GeorgeK340]

I feel that ALLMIND is SUS. I was right when go through NG++

[@duckyoutube6318]

Oh yeah, felt like i had been waiting an eternity. I was ready to show the game the difference between child me and adult me. I could feel 9 Ball taking over my controller. as i crushed Iguazu to dust.

[@PlinaZ]

I knew I wasnt going crazy when I heard "Raven... you've returned." and thought it was new dialogue.

[@Sorain1]

I have to admit, the theory that NG and NG+ were projections of Allmind, done during the moment we contact the system but before authentication is completed, with NG++ being the final timeline, with Allmind having the data to work with in order to arrange events, has some weight to it. The one thing I can't reconcile with that is Contact with Ayre being so much further in. I can't imagine Allmind has enough data to predict the events of the Watchpoint attack.

[@Vellisipsi]

Theres reason to believe that Ayre specifically was locked inside the watchpont by the PCA, and Sulla was there to make contact with her... He even has a pulse gun for the Balteus fight with him

[@azeria1]

​@@VellisipsiI didn't even think about that the pulse gun is super good against balt I would know I used it on my first play though fight completely by accident

[@Light_Buster]

1:10 When I heard this line, I knew something was wrong and there was more to ALLMIND than I thought. Even NG++ and a certain independent mercenary made it clear.

[@ARandomBoi_NothingToSeeHere]

ALLMIND sounds almost flirty in NG+ also, she has a different tone in NG+ from NG when saying "removing MIA status, restoring access privileges". She sounds like she knows she's repeating those lines for the second time. In all honesty, it's almost like ALLMIND is aware of NG cycles, and she doesn't do that in NG++ because that's when you go for the "true" ending, so I guess NG++ is more of a "hard reset" of sorts. Walter's comment in NG++ about 621 already having "plenty of experience" makes me think that Rubicon isn't their first job together. Either that or I'm just overthinking things and it's their way of saying "this is the third time you're gonna do this, fuck their shit up".

[@sdbzfan1]

Thats true, after your first NG+ she always acts like its your first time Yet Walter's dialog does change I wouldnt be surprised if thats why he knows you're still alive in the true ending attacking the xylem, Carla thinks you died but he knows there's nothing on Rubicon that could take you out after the 2 endings you completed

[@sdbzfan1]

The other thing that adds to this is the stuff walter notices on NG++ He had Carla look into kate before we attack the watchpoint and fight Suila, and when we come back he tells us she's not registered in the arena, something Ayre also looks into and it comes up blank too More than that though Kate is using the completed Mind Alpha that we help Allmind make kn NG+ something walter wouldnt know, and in NG++ the arena has secret fights based on the previous routes final bosses, machines that havent even been made yet in the story like Steel Haze Ortiz or not under their control yet like The IB Hal for Walter since that machine isnt released yet until Arquebus gets to the Coral Convergance

[@BoxheadBB]

Ayre did say that she wanted to see the future that 621 chose. Maybe time travel is real, Maybe all of this is just a simulation by advanced AI and only NG++ is a real canon, Maybe it is just all in the head of a Merc's fried brain.

[@apophisstr6719]

Some people are speculating that everything that happened up to NG+2 were all just simulations of ALLMIND, you know, since realistic simulation and recreation is literally their specialty. This also explained why you no longer needed to do the first stage from NG+, because it happened before you acquired the license and contact with ALLMIND so it was never part of the simulation.

[@ARandomBoi_NothingToSeeHere]

@@sdbzfan1 yeah, ALLMIND keeps the data you collect for her in the integration program during NG+. Kate also only appears in NG++ because before that she'd have no AC to pilot, given how the Alpha parts ALLMIND developed for herself didn't exist yet in previous cycles. There's also that whole bussiness with the ALLMIND Ghost and helicopter following you since the start of the game.

[@nicololisandro]

I also noticed new dialogue between Snail and Walter before the briefing for Operation Wallclimber. When Snail refuses to let 621 join the operation on a fresh game, our handler tells Snail to "give us a chance". On a NG+ playthrough, Walter says "we've been through a lot together". I've been looking for a vid of that interaction but it's so hard to find (or prove) because it's such a small interaction. Maybe I've been hearing things lmao

[@shinjimirou928]

No you're not hearing things Dialogue does change with Snail and Walter Even the obvious one in NG++ after you eliminate institute mechs and grinders

[@frosif7751]

the only person that changes in ng++ is walter, saying "You've got plenty of experience" so I think that's interesting

[@JjDBz]

hearing walter welcomes you just after you beat him in the final mission feels weird😅 the fck you welcoming me after you keep beating my ass.

My pleasure!! Glad you enjoyed it! xD

[@underplague6344]

Fromsoftware stop including time shenanigans in their videogames challenge (impossible)

[@ebookjapan8054]

Every Arena battle, and explicitly the NG+/++ Alpha and Beta ones are ALLMIND collecting your combat data to stop you. So maybe your previous runs are a simulation.

[@pdmeditationgaming8289]

yes the game makes us feel like it's all just a simulator or a time loop

[@lesslighter]

And then what if you didnt do the arena until NG+++

[@azeria1]

Yeah I think the simulation is what happens in the true ending when you get put into stasis by allmind with the to other endings being what ifs

[@dawndarklight44]

Is it to stop you? Do you not achieve ALLMIND’s goal by defeating Iguazu and triggering the release?

All we need is DLC called Iguazu:Revengence

Hearing “welcome back 621” from walter after burning the whole galaxy threw me off.

[@ArcRay20]

with NG++ adding new stuff you can only enocunter in that run through, i thought there was going to be a meta background plot that Rubicon was experiencing a sort of time loop that only ALLMIND and a select few were aware or somewhat aware of. but no its more like different timelines we are seeing and thats it🤔

[@kogakoga309]

These conversation makes me think that there is a time loop... It's a sci-fi after all

[@pdmeditationgaming8289]

[@todd3143]

i chuckled a bit when allmind removed my mia status after i’d gone mia for real in an allmind mission

[@172satoshi]

I like to think the original Raven on a new game didn’t get past F rank in that timeline while on NG+, a new timeline, the original Raven is A rank and Allmind is ecstatic to have the best AC pilot back and test the Mind series of AC. On NG++ the original Raven did all the arena and beat all the Mind series ACs that’s why Allmind is just “meh” on your return.

[@azeria1]

I mean allmind knows you aren't the real raven from the get go though

[@TonyRedgrave]

I like how on NG+ and NG++, the emblem, arena rank, and hunter rank are all pending. Nice detail because those things have likely changed.

[@anatoliasmercenary.]

NG++++++++ but everyone is Iguazu

[@DarkstarArchangel]

I wouldn't notice before, I would've guessed the "welcome back" was because the I.D. that I got at the beginning was stolen but it was NG+.

[@rpamungkas13]

Wouldnt it be awesome if the ng to ng++ are actually allmind simulation, and the dlc is where the real story start. All mind will prevent ayre to contact us, and make her contact Iguazu instead. Every mission is an alt version, balteus will appear on the top of the wall, Iguazu and ayre will kill the important character one by one and finally we will face duo ayre and Iguazu in ninenball seraphs together with rusty as ally.

[@sdbzfan1]

How did know i liked rusty more than ayre For real though, i do wonder how the game would play out if we didnt go to the watch point or at the very least iguazu went on the same mission and got their first and we fought suila while he destroyed the syphon at the bottom contacting ayre instead of us

Honestly, I was kind of disappointed with how this specific part turned out. I thought that given Walter and ALLMIND's responses here, it meant that they knew all of the previous playthrough's events and were time traveling in some way. But knowing that that's not the case means that this is just the developers talking to us the player directly. Which is kind of sad given how FromSoft usually goes to great lengths to explain game mechanics in-universe. A time traveling aspect would have also helped to explain some differences, in NG+ and beyond, like why only in NG++ we're allowed to defend the STRIDER, or how in NG+ we can only then see all of the Liberation Front missions. Just my thoughts.

This dialogue makes no sense. Why would it change if the events and storyline before the game haven't changed a bit? There's no time travel lore shit in the AC universe.

[@Lone_Wandering0]

(I'm about a month late as of writing this) but it seems like the dialogue is influenced based off of what the REAL "Raven" did before 621 stole their callsign and registration. in NG+ it seems that "Raven" was working close with ALLMIND prior to 621 landing on Rubicon 3
