When you think about it, Blaze and his friends are actually even more skilled than the other AC protagonists if they stick with F-14s all the way throughout the entire war. F-14, while a good plane itself, was quite obsolete by the time AC5 took place. Other aces have used more high-tier planes like F-15s, F-22s, or the Sukhoi series, yet the Razgriz Squadron brave through everything in their outdated F-14s. Now THAT is the definition of awesome. Also, by no means insulting F-14s here. The plane is awesome. Wish other AC games would have picked a different 'canon' plane for its protagonists as well. Kind of getting sick of seeing F-22 on the cover all the time lol.
Kinda did this little thing in AC7. For the last mission, I acted like if the Admiral Anderson was carrying Blaze's F-14. Trigger's F-22 can't take off from a carrier. But the scrap queen luckily finds the F-14 and restores it. Trigger then uses the F-14 to down the adf-11's. Kind of a wasted opportunity if you ask me.
Erusea: we will not be outdone! we failed the first time but this time it will be different. we have stolen both of Osea's Arsenal Birds and there space elevator. for Erusea!
when grimm said "captain chopper... if you're here, please look after us!" i immediately gained a huge boost of focus as if i'm doing this to avenge him. damn deep.
4:45 It always gets me when we see Razgriz flying off into the horizon one last time while the captain says "As long as they're in the air I haven't lost. And I know they'll succeed." Man, this game has heart.
There is a lot of dialogue in this mission. If you drag on the Grabacr and Ofnir fight, you get some intense exchanges between the Razgriz and the Belkans until they commit suicide some time after the SOLG becomes targetable... but if you knock them out real quick, you get some quiet reflection from the Ghosts and a moment of silence for Davenport.
It's too bad that there seems to be some scrapped ideas for the SOLG. Oka Nieba seems to have voice lines indicating that originally you have to destroy the magazines first, making it more similar to it's 'fight' in Infinity. That would certainly make the 'fight' longer.
The Kestrel and its crew and the captain are the heros. We get a new Kestrel in AC7 but this will always be the true Kestrel. I promised myself i wouldent cry. Promise broken. Also Sky Eye reference!
Exole001 I do have a tiny problem with the name. Kestral 2 is odd because the naming system for warships doesn't usually add numbers. There have been 4 USS Lexinton ships and they all have that same name. I'd figure the new Kestral would just be the Kestral. they will have something like CV047 or something but they dident relate to the name really.
The Architect Yeah I totally agree with you. Examples like USS Enterprise, Hornet and etc. Wish they did incorporate more towards the naming of Warships than slapping on a "2" on it like the real world. But it's Strangereal Lol. I do think that they put the "2" because of new comers to the franchise will understand that there was an original Kestrel before AC7 and all that. So they have to put the "2" on it I assume

I've finished the game today again, the song(journey home) always brings me back memories of my past since 2004, heh i got this game on my birthday on Dec. 4 2004, i turned 4 then and now as a 20 year old, so much happened in the past 16 years. Still brings me tears in my eyes
The sinking of the Kestrel, making me tear up more than titanic, that epic formation which made me tear up in happy tears to the ending of the sunrise/set on oured as The music kicks in and Razgriz flies into the stratosphere, a deep dark blue. It’s not just good, it’s Art.
@@Anonyhouse Ace Combat 7 takes place 9 years after the events of Ace Combat 5 & 15 years after the events of Ace Combat 04. However, its events from both games were mentioned in Ace Combat 7.
Back then, I thought Ace Combat was a "CoD but planes" sorta game, that is until I was trying to create some fighter jet combat scenarios for this story that i was making and got confused because I couldn't get it to be exciting enough (it was basically just a glorified War Thunder's Air RB match), then I stumbled upon a video in my recommendations about trying to recreate Yellow 13 in AC6 (iirc), I saw the first cutscene of the game and was curious so I looked into AC6, I went from that to Ace Combat 7 and was instantly hooked on the gameplay, and so I based some portions of my fighter jet combat scenarios on Ace Combat, and it turned out well. That was in 2020, now in 2021, I've watched the gameplays of Ace Combat 7, Zero, and have just completed 5, And god dang...
Here i am at 5am cheering for Zap while he takes down the solg and clapping when the title-card hit. Man this game to me is the magnum-opus of the series, bar none. And it was clear how much they tried to reach into the soul of 5 to make Ace Combat 7.
I really did not expect this game to be as good as it was back when I got it years ago. The entire AC franchise is gold…. But 5 will forever be one of my favorite games ever made by far. Namco and Project Aces seriously caught lightning in a bottle with this game.
My favorite part is that the enemies aren't just the warmongers of Yuktobania, but also the ones from Osea. This is like a battle between Peace and War
I very much regret not having started Ace Combat before 6, but seeing the gameplay and watching how this game became iconic is truly a masterpiece on itself
During 27+ mission there's an enemy aircraft approaching from south east. I can't remember the model, but you should unlock a plane if you shoot it down
32:09 wow even after the events of Ace Combat 7, they still don't know who the demons of razgriz are. I wonder if they'll be featured in a game anytime soon.
What I never understood is how it was never confirmed that the Demons of Razgriz actually were Wardog Squadron. Like... wasn't Genette with them literally the whole time? often filming? I guess you could say his recordings went down the the Kestrel but he himself survived, why didn't he write about it? My little fan theory is that the whole game(cutscene wise) is being told from a 3rd person, by Genette(Generation Kill style), some time after 2020 when the origins of the Razgriz squadron were declassified. Confirming to the world that yes, it was the Sand Island squadron that saved them.
Genette had saved the records before the Kestral sank, but due to the Circumstances of the war, as well as how publishing the Records would result in the Identities of Razgriz, as well as their allies being exposed (which would put them all in danger), he had to keep the Records classified. Ace Combat 7 actually had Genette publish the records of the Circum-Pacific War about a month after Harling's Death at the time Harling had wanted to reveal the truth, exposing the truth of the Circum-Pacific War. You see that in AC7's Epilogue, on a Magazine. Matter of fact, Harling was killed in AC7 because Erusea and Osea did not want the Maniscripts of the Circum-Pacific war to be made public (due to how easily the Grey Men had infiltrated both sides), and had hoped Harling's death would prevent it, not realizing Harling had planned ahead and told Genette to declassify the Records of the War at the planned date anyway.
Nagasei: "All that's left of their hatred is this thing in front of us." Drones in AC7: "B R U H" One of the few things I dislike about AC 7 is how it did AC 5 so dirty.
This game suddenly popped in to my head again, thanks for the upload! Though in my head canon I think that Nagase ended up with Blaze and that’s their daughter.
Yeah... Seeing this scene again #alonetogether in time of corona pandemic, really gives me chills and deep respect to all the people like health workers/doctor/courier/transportation worker/food service industry and everyone that come together fighting the pandemic. Whilst sometimes sacrificing their own health and safety for the people of the world.. i thank you all and #staysafe everyone
I love this game series sm I literally have emotional attachment to this ngl. Every time I reply it, when I finish I'm upset again. Best game in the series by far🙌
You know...now that I think about it, the launch scene gives us a hint that Blaze is a selfless and caring person. He's the squadron's captain, yet he's the last one to launch.
Nah, a B-1 would have trouble catching up to it and dropping a nuke would certainly create a chain of explosions that would destroy coastal Oured, not to mention the B-1 bring vaporized instantly. Just not logical
Yo, I've watched this twice, I've played this level a dozen times, and I still have to say, fucking NICE how you pulled into the tunnel from that angle. Cinematic af. Well played, and thank you so much for putting this gem of a game up on UA-cam -- twice! I'm watching your more recent videos too. Bit of advice. You will accrue views over time with this sort of thing. Play up the drama, make things look good and entertaining. Let things play out for dramatic effect. Make a video out of that. Have ANOTHER video where you show off your 1337 gaming skills and pwn thing easily and make it look easy for bragging rights. Personally, I go looking for videos that make things look dramatic and awesome separately from wanting to watch someone kick ass with their top-tier skills. You got two videos attracting two different audiences, then profit!

What I got: an emotional roller coaster, norse mythology but it's airplanes, awesome soundtrack.

Heck a anime about the timeline from Zero all up to 7 would be nice, but should they make the protagonist silent?
@@joshburke4083 oh that, would be amazing.
The Timeline about Council Meeting in 2020 will be close to Aurelia-Leasath War, and every possible side story DLC for AC7, like Gryphus 1, Mobius 1 after Operation Katina, Larry 'Pixy' Foulke Razgriz's fate, Scarface's Squadron's fate, Garuda 1 Talisman in Anea, etc., especially young Rena in Unreal Engine 4 version.
The DLC:
salvation
They will disclose Torres' *CRISP WHITE SHEETS*
When the Yuke AWAC flies into formation like a boss
La la la laaaaaa LISTEN TO OUR BEAUTIFUL VOICE
The voicework in this game was absolutely fantastic, the story the presentation the drama, all of it. Best one in the series.
I've finished the game today again, the song(journey home) always brings me back memories of my past since 2004, heh i got this game on my birthday on Dec. 4 2004, i turned 4 then and now as a 20 year old, so much happened in the past 16 years. Still brings me tears in my eyes
The F-14 is such a majestic aircraft
The sinking of the Kestrel, making me tear up more than titanic, that epic formation which made me tear up in happy tears to the ending of the sunrise/set on oured as The music kicks in and Razgriz flies into the stratosphere, a deep dark blue.
It’s not just good, it’s Art.
that Kestrel's sinking is a sad death of the hero
its next gen (Kestrel 2), unfortunately, isn't
@@RAZGRIZ016P At least the new aircraft carrier, the Andersen, launched another ace that would end a great war.
Captain Anderson always gave me a Tom Hanks feel.
And then AC7 happened
Ace 6 before lol
Kestrel II Keeessstrreeeeeelll II keeeeeeeeeeeeeeesssssssssssssssttttttttttttttttrrrrrrrreeeeeeeeelllllllllllllllllll II *TRIGERED*
RIP Kestrel II
Haven't played it yet, so I hear AC7 is basically AC5 the sequel?
@@Anonyhouse Ace Combat 7 takes place 9 years after the events of Ace Combat 5 & 15 years after the events of Ace Combat 04. However, its events from both games were mentioned in Ace Combat 7.
Its interesting how each game of the holy trilogy has a theme to it
This one is about idealism and its beautiful.
I'm not crying, it's the onion im cutti.. Ok nvm yes I am
The onion is crying too
I swear that this game will never compare to any game with that ending it teared me up
That mission was like Top Gun + Avengers Endgame + Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi
This has got to be the best game in existence. I played this game a lot in my childhood. When i beat for the first time, i almost shed a tear.
I always loved the silent Howl at the end. Don’t know why, but it’s aesthetically pleasing.
I remember beating both these missions in the A-6 Intruder... Dont know why, but I enjoyed that plane for some reason.
Thanks for all the uploads, it feel great to see this game again. Your flying was top notch, too.

Back then, I thought Ace Combat was a "CoD but planes" sorta game, that is until I was trying to create some fighter jet combat scenarios for this story that i was making and got confused because I couldn't get it to be exciting enough (it was basically just a glorified War Thunder's Air RB match), then I stumbled upon a video in my recommendations about trying to recreate Yellow 13 in AC6 (iirc), I saw the first cutscene of the game and was curious so I looked into AC6, I went from that to Ace Combat 7 and was instantly hooked on the gameplay, and so I based some portions of my fighter jet combat scenarios on Ace Combat, and it turned out well.
That was in 2020, now in 2021, I've watched the gameplays of Ace Combat 7, Zero, and have just completed 5,
And god dang...
"Man that's a big tunnel". Wait, you're still alive Chopper?
*Lie down*
*Try not to cry*
*CRY A LOT*
Rehydrate
...
Cry even more.
Fucking soundtrack gets me everytime
everyone knows you have to say "no" to that last question in the game. Blaze is a troll and loves to hear those exasperated sighs.
Here i am at 5am cheering for Zap while he takes down the solg and clapping when the title-card hit. Man this game to me is the magnum-opus of the series, bar none. And it was clear how much they tried to reach into the soul of 5 to make Ace Combat 7.
I really did not expect this game to be as good as it was back when I got it years ago. The entire AC franchise is gold…. But 5 will forever be one of my favorite games ever made by far. Namco and Project Aces seriously caught lightning in a bottle with this game.
I love the yuktobanian AWAC he is so happy.
My favorite part is that the enemies aren't just the warmongers of Yuktobania, but also the ones from Osea. This is like a battle between Peace and War
Yeah. In the future, I'd like to see a game where we play as the Yukes.
Controversial take. This was the best Ace Combat game.
4 will have a special place in my heart as my first game but 5 made me cry.
Zero was the best, but this one is a VERY close second.
I very much regret not having started Ace Combat before 6, but seeing the gameplay and watching how this game became iconic is truly a masterpiece on itself
During 27+ mission there's an enemy aircraft approaching from south east. I can't remember the model, but you should unlock a plane if you shoot it down
Ghost of Kyiv, we pray for your success
propaganda
@@edgoodsiroquois8390 cope and seethe
@@edgoodsiroquois8390 even so the simple fact that a legend is spreading in modern times amazes me in a positive way
32:09 wow even after the events of Ace Combat 7, they still don't know who the demons of razgriz are. I wonder if they'll be featured in a game anytime soon.
Kei Nagase appeared in the final mission though
This is still the best tunnel stage, challenging, tension, and full of feels.
Rip Harling
What I never understood is how it was never confirmed that the Demons of Razgriz actually were Wardog Squadron.
Like... wasn't Genette with them literally the whole time? often filming? I guess you could say his recordings went down the the Kestrel but he himself survived, why didn't he write about it?
My little fan theory is that the whole game(cutscene wise) is being told from a 3rd person, by Genette(Generation Kill style), some time after 2020 when the origins of the Razgriz squadron were declassified.
Confirming to the world that yes, it was the Sand Island squadron that saved them.
Genette had saved the records before the Kestral sank, but due to the Circumstances of the war, as well as how publishing the Records would result in the Identities of Razgriz, as well as their allies being exposed (which would put them all in danger), he had to keep the Records classified.
Ace Combat 7 actually had Genette publish the records of the Circum-Pacific War about a month after Harling's Death at the time Harling had wanted to reveal the truth, exposing the truth of the Circum-Pacific War. You see that in AC7's Epilogue, on a Magazine.
Matter of fact, Harling was killed in AC7 because Erusea and Osea did not want the Maniscripts of the Circum-Pacific war to be made public (due to how easily the Grey Men had infiltrated both sides), and had hoped Harling's death would prevent it, not realizing Harling had planned ahead and told Genette to declassify the Records of the War at the planned date anyway.
me after seeing the date I was half tempted to do that sky eye refrence
33:42 "The Journey begins."🕊
1:40 I remember when I watched this scene for the first time. It was sooo shocking....
Nagasei: "All that's left of their hatred is this thing in front of us."
Drones in AC7: "B R U H"
One of the few things I dislike about AC 7 is how it did AC 5 so dirty.
8:54 “I just knocked out our brigade commander”
*LMAO WUT*
Brigade commander back at the base: I NEED EVERY SINGLE UNITS AFTER THOSE DEFECTORS!
26:25
This line... It kinda makes me shed a tear

This game suddenly popped in to my head again, thanks for the upload! Though in my head canon I think that Nagase ended up with Blaze and that’s their daughter.
There have been amazing games in my life, but this one is in its own category. legendary
Yeah... Seeing this scene again #alonetogether in time of corona pandemic, really gives me chills and deep respect to all the people like health workers/doctor/courier/transportation worker/food service industry and everyone that come together fighting the pandemic.
Whilst sometimes sacrificing their own health and safety for the people of the world.. i thank you all and #staysafe everyone
nigga what
I love this game series sm I literally have emotional attachment to this ngl. Every time I reply it, when I finish I'm upset again. Best game in the series by far🙌
17:49 Kyon's ultimate plan to annihilate English dubs to ending up the unnecessary sub vs dub war
lol
The best of the best Ace Combat series💓
23:53 to restore pride.
Never flew in the skies of battle again, because they flew ABOVE those skies next time
That phalanx always scared me
care to explain why is one of your men here?
You know...now that I think about it, the launch scene gives us a hint that Blaze is a selfless and caring person. He's the squadron's captain, yet he's the last one to launch.
"the razgriz squadron lives *among us* "
The final mission should really have been "take off in a B-1 and land a nuke on the solg midair"
Nah, a B-1 would have trouble catching up to it and dropping a nuke would certainly create a chain of explosions that would destroy coastal Oured, not to mention the B-1 bring vaporized instantly. Just not logical
One of the best games every made. Always a little teary eyed at the end.
Yo, I've watched this twice, I've played this level a dozen times, and I still have to say, fucking NICE how you pulled into the tunnel from that angle. Cinematic af. Well played, and thank you so much for putting this gem of a game up on UA-cam -- twice!
I'm watching your more recent videos too. Bit of advice. You will accrue views over time with this sort of thing. Play up the drama, make things look good and entertaining. Let things play out for dramatic effect. Make a video out of that. Have ANOTHER video where you show off your 1337 gaming skills and pwn thing easily and make it look easy for bragging rights. Personally, I go looking for videos that make things look dramatic and awesome separately from wanting to watch someone kick ass with their top-tier skills. You got two videos attracting two different audiences, then profit!
I’m blown away by your speed and accuracy in the tunnel area,I always slowed down to screeching halt before entering haha
30:05 this scene is so rewarding.
