WRONG! you can't get platinum if your characters are too overleveled on their main, unless you switch their wanzers to make them learn other skills while switching back to their main for every story mission.

I played through this game twice, once for each storyline, and had no idea this existed. Huh. That would’ve made some frustrating battles considerably easier. Still wouldn’t have stopped that one tool from charging forward into the midst of the enemy. No way to level his dumb ass and put some more points into common sense.

Because of the industry's obsession with photorealistic graphics. Casual and younger gamers wont buy a game if its not absolutely real looking. SE has tryed making smaller budget games like i am setsuna and lost sphear, but to only mediocre success. Its really sad. Id take a front mission 5 thats made with the FM3 engine over anything "so pretty" any day. Dont get me wrong, FF7R looks amazing and so pretty, but its an anomaly for me. Generally, i prefer older looking games where the dev put much more time and effort into story, gameplay, music/audio. TL;DR Cause ppl are freaking idiots.

@@FredHerbert999 ff7r is not even gonna compare to the original and there's a pretty good chance we'll all be dead by the time they're done milking it. it looks pretty nice visually but gameplay wise it looks like a mediocre action game to me. it looks like i'd be getting bored already in the first overly long, repetive boss fight. it's going to be broken into at least 3 games, very possibly more by the sound of it, and i'm sure each part will have plenty of dlc. i would rather have new ff games with ps1 graphics that are as large and complete as 7-9 than this crap. i feel like i'm the only person on the planet that couldn't care less about ff7 remake. sad thing is that when people are this hyped for a game, it can be complete garbage and most people will still praise it, like they're brainwashed by hype into forming an opinion before even playing it, and nothing will change that opinion.

My initial exposure to Front Mission was in 2007 when the first one was ported to the DS. As dated as it seemed even then, it was still a great deal of fun. It had a dark, pseudo-futuristic military vibe and engaging combat that had me hooked. I have been meaning to follow up by playing Front Mission 3, but damn does that game have a daunting amount of content!

Shame you didn't mentioned that this game has 2 completely different, opposite storylines that even if they happen to cross in some places and times, you get to see everything from a completely different perspective. And, hell, you really didn't give the story much of a look, it deserves more i think. Otherwise, great review as always. You should try Front Mission V someday, cuz i personally think it's the best one just because of the story and characters. Also, it spans across a lot of years, so many years that the events of Front Mission 3 start and end somewhere in the middle of V's story iirc. The only bad thing is that it was never released in the west, but at least fans did a great job fan-translating it a long time ago. God i love Front Mission, shame it's dead now.

I can never pinpoint why I love this game so much, but having played this game for hundreds of hours, there's just something about this game that really hits it right with me. The "20 minutes into the future" trope where it's futuristic with all the mech stuff, but everything else is modern day, the more mature political story that you never really saw in any other game at the time, the more realistic look and feel the characters have (also unlike other games at the time) I feel it's one of the best games I've ever played, and the only thing I wish for it is to have more of it, especially post-game stuff. And balancing. At a certain point, it become very easy with all the broken battle skills, so I had to challenge myself by using odd loadouts

I totally agree with you about permadeath. People talk about how much they like it, but most if not all of them probably just save scum and try again. It's a tedious mechanic that just has people crossing their fingers in hopes that the enemy doesn't crit them or they didn't place any of their fragile units too far out. Cool vid btw
@alteregoreview
@alteregoreview 6 жыл бұрын
StaySkeptic That's true, it would cut back on the amount of save scumming. However, it would force players to stick with a very hardcore approach to game design. Even Fire Emblem has phased away from permadeath with the option of Casual Mode. Also, it might force an overhaul of the current save system for some games. Fire Emblem has saves that function in the old school way and if it changed to an autosave system, they'd have to rethink how the game works.

I was the one that told you to start with 4 lol. In hindsight, I really wanted you to talk about 3 considering not many ppl are talking about the true version. I didn't know the patch was finished until someone on twitter told me. Tbqf It is one of those series where the core gameplay doesn't change much, so I dunno how you'll feel about covering them. But given that you reviewed the Yakuzas and the Tales Ofs, I think you'll manage lol. I just don't want you getting burnt out on them like you did with Tekken (sadly). Maybe a retrospective? Maybe 4, 5 and 0 should share a vid? I really want to hear you talk about the series' themes, music, atmosphere and stuff. Like how Ace Combat Zero has Spanish guitars, references to Arthurian mythos and over the top Metal Gear-esque war speeches. So either 3 or 4, it's up to you. I'm looking forward to your take on the series.

It's set in the same universe, and is being made by an all-star team, featuring the artist of the Metal Gear series, a mech designer who's worked on Ghost in the Shell and a director who has worked on Armored Core games. It might not be called Front Mission, but it's much better then nothing.

the internet/email system in the game is really unique and amazing for the time. I'm surprised no game has tried to emulate this as a way to interactively flesh out the lore. Cyberpunk had a sort of "browser" but it was rather plain and essentially just reading flat webpages that occasionally changed as you advanced in the main missions. But 20 years earlier we were reading bulletin boards, shopping for software, decrypting files and frantically writing down passwords.

Just wanted to say that after finally getting into FM3, l really missed out on the most fun Turned based RPG ever on the ps1. Had this as a kid for my ps2, but hated reading and l remembered it felt dull. That is not true, in terms of a turn based game, The Legend Of Dragoon and XenoSaga are the only one l ever replayed. Now FM3 is the King, just from the pacing, the real sense of power from the sound design, and the different REAL playstyles you can use in this without getting screwed to much for trying new things makes this a true joy to play. Maybe not the deepest of this genre, but its just fun to play. And the custom wanzer setups really make you want to play as much of the game as possible, it helps that battles are fast and fluid rather than slow and filled with even slower walking around a large open-ish world before combat.

Great title, overall! This game (let alone, the series) has a compelling adventure tale that centers on politics, war, humanity, and of course the Wanzers, much like Gundam. When it comes to the essence of the game, I think the creators of the series had learned by watching movies like Top Gun, Apocalypse Now, Blade Runner, Full Metal Jacket, The Manchurian Candidate, Citizen Kane, Platoon, Short Circuit, 2001: A Space Odyssey, Red Dawn, and many other titles.

as for what parts that's on the good part, the starting wanzer itself is one of the strongest statwise albeit mostly weak skills outside ROFUP I (which is borderline OP), or if you want to ditch your starting wanzer because you don't like the looks, there are bunch of good wanzers to use or salvage for parts namely; Yongsai 3, Wude 3, Shangdi 1, Tieqi 4, Shunwang 1, Mingtian 1, Qibing 0 (only in Emma's Story), Whisk, Grezex, Prov PAW2 personally, I would recommend using Tieqi 4 body as soon as you can get/buy them because they are lighter while having more power thus gave you more rooms for weapons, also don't underestimate the Yongsai 3 because it looked sucks on the upgrades because it is actually solid if you just ignore evasion and just prefer to have extra HP and good armor

It's a pretty deep series with ridiculous plots, twists, turns, and political power plays. You will of course have to turn your brain off when considering that Australia and Japan are the spear heads of a militarized national unity that North America were so jealous of they decided to force South America into joining their newly found fully forced organization United States of new Continent. It is absolutely stupid, but that is what makes the story fantastic. The only thing left that would make it even better is if it had Dues Ex level conspiracies. The first one is rough around the edges and the UI isn't as pretty but it's still a solid game 25 years later. I haven't played the second one so I'm not sure what that is like, but I personally believe that FM3 is the best one in the series. I highly recommend either emulating the game or buying a PS1 just to play FM3 alone.

But now my english good enough for me to also enjoy the story. This game's story is good, full with political stuff, betrayal, person using another person, and tales of bravery and friendship. Now I can't wait to play Alisa route too. ( But how come my favorite character is Isao Takemura, he was not even playable lol)

Ah yes. As a Filipino, I love playing this game and having Kazuki destroy the fuck off of Da Han Zong/Chinese Wanzers with a knuckle duster (Because China IRL is busy taking our islands and our gov't isn't doing much about it) But yeah, surprisingly this game is way ahead of it's time in terms of political strife and modern-day conspiracies. That's why this game is amazing. You not just a mech troupe messing shit up in countries just because, but because a mass destruction non-nuclear weapon is smuggled and argued between the world powers, and you're there to stop the tug of war, with the meddling of a mercenary group, and a group of humans enhanced with Wanzer expertise, I think they were called 'numbers' and shit. Also, you can grind, just go for the simulations, and basically grind specific stats needed for your gang. Heck, I even managed to make Miho, the highway police woman, a melee-centric hitter who can eject pilots in high rates and bust arms and legs with two to three blows. and when you start a story mission, this is here you can legit say *_"Just like the simulations"_* The internet thing in-game is a 95% fluff and lore. the last 5% of its use is to unlock unique Wanzer mech parts, along with a *_Laser Beam Weapon_* that can rip shit up. 9/10 would play again. For the purpose of messing shit up with the DHZ.

surrender isn't much effective and often random af later on the game especially in Emma's Story, you can get Pilot Damage I skill and high activation COM.... just spam those skill until 6 skill slots you have on a character is full, and equip your "pilot killer" character's wanzer with early game weapon, however in Alisa's Story you can't get access to Pilot Damage I skill bcs the very wanzer that lets you learn it isn't available so you had to stick with the funny Eject Punch and then blast the ejected pilots upfront
