  • aka my favorite fight in the game but with "Zero" from Ace Combat Zero's OST.
    I don't wanna talk about how many tries it took to make this video work. I had to try like four different builds just to not kill him within sixty seconds... Anyway, Armored Core 6 is awesome and so is Ace Combat Zero. Play both.

    What I find interesting about this fight, is that while pixy and rusty have a similar personality and demeanor, their actually is a role reversal here in comparison to ace combat zero.
    Pixy wants to nuke the world to reset it, hoping that the humanity that rises out of the ashes is a better one than before. Entrust the future to the next generation.
    I feel as though this route in armoured core has a somewhat similar logic. Coral is going to spread from Rubicon and out into the galaxy. With how volatile the substance is this could result in a fires of ibis type catostrophy on a galactic scale. But burn the coral now, burn rubicon, reset it to zero would prevent the possibility of that ever happening. And whoever would come to to inhabit rubicon after that, be it survivors or a new generation of settlers, could do so free of the temptation of coral, free of the bloodshed.
    In zero, the player fights to prevent a reset from happening, but in armoured core, the player is the one fighting to ensure it will happen.

    • @zjuraeventide8949
      @zjuraeventide8949 11 місяців тому

      Well, partially right in a sense. The Fires of Ibis was actually a man made disaster. It being a result of coral was a partial red herring. What you're actually trying to prevent is what happens in the 3rd route, which everyone who knew about it feared because they had no idea what would happen to humanity, fuguring it would lead to some sort of collapse.

Imagine mid fight a re zel transforms, pulls out a post STALL manouver dodging missiles Snd shots and while changing back in mecha pulls out a beam saber. That could be a combat even deeper than how armored core already is. Now that i think about i want to make this game myself, i gotta Learn to use unity asap

      @nialltealeaf275 Рік тому +30

      Why yes, it does.
      Rusty, like Pixy, is meant to be a sympathetic deuteragonist trying to defeat the main character due to clashing ideals (that is, similar goals to the main character, but execution drives a rift between them). Whilst Iguazu is repeatedly portrayed as a brash, petty rival willing to do anything to get one over the main character, just like Crimson 1. Hell, when you think about it, The Die is Cast and Kings are thematically resonant (brutal fight between the last two powers standing over who can claim victory in the ashes of defeat).
