Interesting game so far. It kinda reminds me of the only CD-i game I've played, Laser Lords. its mostly the music, but the voice acting is similar too

: Meet the Time Lord

That sucked to get. Most of the questline was pointless filler, especially the stupid warehouse with the climbing at the end that barely worked. Didn't even learn anything about the Guardian beyond "He's a bad dude", which is a huge step down from Ultima 6 where the conflict made actual sense.

gently caress this game, I quit.

Game 3-17



Armored Core 3 (PS2) - 2002 - Deadline 5/8/24 11:59EST

Layered, an underground world that humanity fled into to escape a global catastrophe that ruined the Earth's surface. Within this world are three corporations vying for control over the limited space and assets. Overseeing all of this is the godlike artificial intelligence, The Controller. Also present is a terrorist group opposing The Controller's near-absolute control over mankind. You are a pilot newly-inducted into the Ravens — mercenaries piloting the powerful Armored Cores — who is soon pulled into a conspiracy that threatens to forever change the subterranean society.





Armored Core 3 is a 2002 third-person shooter mecha video game developed by FromSoft for the PS2, and the sixth entry in the Armored Core series. Armored Core 3 acts as a reboot for the franchise and begins a storyline that would continue through Armored Core: Last Raven. In 2009, Armored Core 3 was ported to the PlayStation Portable. You can play this version I guess, if you're some kind of sicko.

I played a couple of AC games back in the day on Xbox 360 (For Answer and maybe 5, I think?) and AC6, of course, but I've never checked out any of the earlier ones. Kick-rear end pick.

Lol same - I got lost in a grinding/upgrading loop and absolutely forgot what I was doing it for. I suspect I won't get too much further before deadline, but it's such a rad game, I'll probably just keep playing.

people should actually just play it as is to get the true AC experience. I'm pretty sure silent line had updated controls and larry picked the one right before that and i respect the hell out of that, unless i'm wrong lol

Easily the worst part of the game. They're just so fast and aggressive the ships you can get early do poorly against them, even a fully upgraded flagship can take hits before pasting one.

the spathi ships are probably the best bet against the probes early on since you can stay just outside lightning range and throw BUTTs at them. i went and got max thrusters on the flagship just so i didn't have to get caught by them over and over.

the probes are definitely supposed to be an active nuisance, but I wish one or two of the early ships had been better at taking them out.
