Comment on Armored Core VI Review Thread (85/100)
DingoBilly@lemmy.world 10 months agoWell that’s the point right? It’s been 10 years. A lot has changed in games and people expect more. That’s reflected in why the game has reviewed ok, but for a FromSoftware game it’s kinda done pretty poorly. This isn’t going to win any game of the year awards.

As respectfully as I can say this, so what? I don’t care about it trying to be a mass appeal GOTY art piece that pushes boundaries. I want an AC game with the stupid silly robots blowing shit up. Anything that tales me out building said robots or blowing said shit up is a negative for me. If anything having more bloat with cutscenes and dialogue and exposition detracts from the experience.

That’s great for you then!
My comment is just a reply to the original comment that someone said it was laughable that reviewers complained about the lack of story which I think is just oblivious/attempts to excuse the developer for making a certain type of game. Again, the industry has evolved to expect certain things so when it’s not there it’s a valid complaint and reason why this game doesn’t live up to expectations.
But it’s completely valid for people to just want an action game or movie without a story so if that floats your boat then great.
