    The inclusion of Campaign and Conquest mode is really interesting and a welcome edition, as it gives more to the game than before when I’d reinstall every six or eight months to play a run on the Ace Combat map. I’m glad they didn’t bloat it with forcing new things into the formula, and the direction they took the sequel hasn’t altered the DNA of main game too drastically. The incorporation of mod content into the main game is pretty damn sweet. I’m supposing the mods for ground combat were an inspiration for the new army mechanics.
    Either way, excited to get this sneak peak and gonna play when it drops!

    • @Andersen166
      @Andersen166 3 місяці тому +2

      Just for future reference, you meant to use "addition", as they were adding something to the game. The meaning of edition goes along the lines of "version", like, as a wild example, dnd rule book 5.5 edition.
      Alternatively it can also be used in the form of editorial work, like cutting out parts of a video or correcting spelling errors in a book.
      Hope this helps and have a nice day.
