  • Oh WOW. I did not realize that Armored Core was like this. This opening movie left my mouth on the jaw and I love this intense prayer that it feels that people are proclaiming to be saved by the mech. This is fantastic stuff - written in this quintessential Ace Combat format. But, I really can't get over this opening cutscene.

    The theme of Anatolia's Mercenary, a pilot so absurdly skilled they singlehandedly changed the course of a global war, defeating legends both current and former, before disappearing into the shadows, a murky legend of a conflict most floating above the clouds would rather forget. Only to show up years later, the sole and most powerful NEXT pilot of a comparatively small surface faction, in a new and terrifyingly agile machine. It's no wonder the corporations were so hesitant to face him down given his track record, with GA alone owing the vast majority of their success to his actions. I'm just glad it was shown he survived his encounter with/against Strayed.

    In Armored Core for Answer lore, a Lynx (called for mercenaries piloting a NEXT which is basically a more advanced Armored Core) fighting an Arms Fort especially The Spirit of Motherwill (colossal mech from the intro) is not "just a mission" for anyone else to take on because it is already a suicide mission engaging them. Despite its high risk, only a few Lynxes lived their tale and even became legends of their own right.

    Ah, the battle against Spirit of MotherWill is EPIC the first time you do it. While all armored forts are a epic fight, MotherWill has that vibe of being in the intro, and the fight itself being cut into phases. You have to GET to Motherwill first and THEN fight it. Meanwhile you're zipping around in highspeed dogding shots of massive caliber. While any reruns take a bit of the experience, I always liked fighting it for the crafted moment it was.

    This song is White Glint's theme. A once necessary force to decide the LINX war. Rescued others time and time again and shot down many. Literal legends around him and his wake in the battlefield. An angel of death, ready to defend his new people and decide the new future. He is also the player from Armored Core 4.

  • @Rocketlauncher00
    @Rocketlauncher00 Рік тому +32

    Aw man that intro. In the intro, it mixes "4 the answer" and "Spirit of Motherwill" themes.
    The Spirit of Motherwill, a walking fortress the size of half a city. And it still cannot bring enough firepower to bear to defeat a single mech (very advanced prototype, but still).
    A big part of AC 4s story is about the world remaining military constructing these behemoth war machines called Arms Forts to reduce their dependece on the Mecha Mercenaries. People still hire those very mercs to take down the Arms Forts of other organizations.
    Good analysis on this one, never thought of it as a praying song.

    The intro on ACFA is 1 of my favorites. It features White Glint Mk2 on an assault against BFF's arms fort Spirit of Motherwhill using the Vanguard Over Boost unit. While the attack was unsucessful, he did find a weakness Strayed exploits later. It is worth noting that Strayed is the pilot you play as in ACFA and the pilot of White Glint is the pilot you played as in AC4

    • @alephkasai9384

      The reason why White Glint was unsuccesful I feel is that White Glint can be seen fighting a lot more normals and supporting units than we can see during our mission.
      Also I'm not sure where that bit of White Glint finding info that allows us to destroy it later on came from.

    Love the footage of the assault on Spirit of Motherwill. While the fight against this gigantic behemoth has another Soundtrack aptly titled "Spirit of Motherwill", 4 the Answer is one of the shorter songs which incorporate other Tracks in the OST like a shorter, dynamic version.
    Your analysis is spot on. Lots of comments on the ACfA Soundtrack vids here on youtube speculate if the choir actually says something like "amen" and well, we'll probably never find out the true intention/background of the meaning, but it leaves room for a lot of speculation and theories, which honestly, stretches over the entirety of the Armored Core franchise OST. In a way you could say, From Software loves nuanced storytelling and Kota Hoshino and Tsukasa Saitoh do that in their very own way, being part of the FS sound division.
    Great content. Hope to see more!
