00:00 Armored Core 6 Fires of Rubicon is exactly what you want from a mech fighting game.
00:07 It's not perfect and definitely falls short when it comes to its story, but maybe it's
00:11 just not about that, because when it comes to customizable, brawling, fast-paced aerial
00:16 combat and incredible performance, this game delivers big time.
00:21 Developer From Software does it again, as if they didn't win us over already with Elden
00:26 Ring, they keep setting the bar when it comes to how well a game can run.
00:31 It's just that smooth.
00:32 But it's also surprising when the game's story falls flat and has little significance to
00:37 the otherwise amazing gameplay.
00:39 According to IGN, the external parts of your mech all have their own weight, defensive
00:44 value, AP, which is health, and what's known as altitude stability, which affects how quickly
00:50 you get staggered from consecutive hits.
00:53 Mechs with higher defensive stats naturally weigh a lot more and require sturdier but
00:57 slower leg parts in order to carry the burden, and weapons that weigh a lot require larger,
01:02 stronger, and heavier arm parts.
01:05 Boss fights, which FromSoft is well known for, are a-plenty, and you can be sure that
01:09 this game will kick your ass for hours before you can advance some parts of the story.
01:15 But with good weapons, a fun gameplay system, beautiful graphics, and an appetite for destruction,
01:21 Hammered Core 6 Fires of Rubicon is the hours-long interactive action movie we've all been waiting
01:27 for.
01:27 before.
