I'll start off by saying that I think they absolutely nailed it. I was honestly skeptical of it pre-launch. It really just looked way too arcadey but oh boy was I wrong. They managed to keep the soul of the game intact while modernizing it really well. I feel like what really did it for me was unlocking the arena, like ok this is 100% the armored core I was looking for. Also to top it off, I have an aging rig 9600k and a 1080 and I'm playing this game on high settings at 2k and getting 80-100 frames consistently. Good fucking jobFrom Soft.
Damn from one to six. You really missed out on some good stuff in 2 but especially 3 imo. Never got to play the others but I can imagine they were good.
