Armored Core VI Fires of Rubicon - XBOX Series X

Game is amazing. Fromsoftware has outdone themselves once again. The game is filled with fast paced action, methodical mech building, and engaging story. I gave it such a low score because my package came late and the case was cracked. FedEx Sucks.

From Software, enough said. From the souls games and bloodborne to sekiro from never disappoints with a fun challenging game. Although not in the same vein as the aforementioned above, this game is fun and challenging as well being froms take on mech suit battle action game. Very fun

The game is just not for me. I could not get into it. The control handling was difficult for me which was frustrating. I bought based on the good reviews. I thought it would be similar to titanfall which was an excellent game. I would save my money on something else. Just my 2 cents

This was my first time playing an Armored Core game and it was fun. It’s way more fast paced when compared to other games I’ve played beforehand like Elden Ring. It demands that you be fast and aggressive against your enemies as you progress through the story. It also encourages you to try different combinations with weapons and AC (mech) components because a combination that works well for one scenario might not work well for the next. One of my personal favorite things about the game is the mech customization. There’s all kinds of combinations you can try with the weapons and with the AC itself. For me, dual wielding gatling guns is just the best. Overall, I would say that this is a recommended buy, even if the game is a bit difficult.

This game is excellent. It plays very well and is an absolute blast to play. The first chapter or two are a little slower than I’d like (mostly because it’s the beginning of the game and you don’t have a very powerful/fast mech which is completely understandable). After that, your range of mech options really start to open up and your freedom to play the style you like is more prominent. With the exception of a couple of bosses, the game isn’t too difficult and you always have the option to build a new mech or alter your current one in the checkpoint menu should you die (which is nice given the fact that you cannot return to the menu without having to restart the entire mission). Gameplay feels smooth and responsive (if not fairly basic). I have not played the multiplayer as that’s not really my cup of tea, but if it plays like the campaign, I’m sure it would be very fun if you’re into that. Obviously this game’s developer is notorious for making specific types of games that are usually far more difficult and unforgiving than most, but I haven’t found that to be the case with this game. Just don’t expect a “souls” type game if you’re new to the series and you’ll enjoy it. This series is it’s own thing and isn’t intended to be like FromSoft’s other games. Overall, I would highly recommend this game if you’re into mech games, fast-paced assault games, or third person shooters in general.
