I've been starving for a new Armored Core game for over 6 years now and this game, from the initial trailer to both demos, scratches an itch for mindless mech combat and endless customization that I've been waiting for! The package will hopefully be waiting for me when I get home and I'll be playing all weekend.
Absolutely loved it, I've played through each mission 5+ times, collected multiple parts, messed with the customization, and tried nearly every weapon available; this is what I've been waiting for. The graphics definitely need some cleaning up, but gameplay feels good and works for me. As a huge Armored Core fan from the PS2, I've been waiting for a revival of that series and this is the next best thing. Can't wait for the release!
I really enjoyed my playthrough with it when it was free on PSN but it's not something I would ever play again; I just don't feel the need to. The story/mystery was interesting enough and it wasn't very long BUT it doesn't really feel like a game to me, just an interactive story with little to no replay value. If you can get it for cheap, I say play through it once, but otherwise I can't say it's really worth it honestly.
I'm impressed! I was going to be a day one buyer no matter what, but I'm extremely excited now! If this machine is backwards compatible, even with just download titles from WiiU and/or 3DS, I think my head would explode!
I loved loved LOVED SMT IV. Very rarely does an RPG hold on to me enough that I keep playing it consistently until I finish it, but that one had a death grip. I'm so happy we're getting more of that world, more of those systems, more of that everything with a whole bunch of new stuff! Can't wait for Tuesday to get here!
I like every track so far and think it fits with the aesthetic and world very well. My only complaint with the music is the fact that it can be louder than the dialogue at times during cut scenes and there's no way to adjust it. That's also my only complaint with the game as a whole; it's been a great ride so far!
Huge gunpla/plastic model fan so I'm very interested in grabbing one or more of these, probably more. I CAN'T WAIT FOR THIS GAME AND ALL OF THE THINGS WITH IT!!!
Seems to be the common comment, but I also put this game down for a while and will pick it back up now. The long wait times in between turns really took me out of the game; it's nice to see that they listened to the players and the reviewers and patched this pretty quickly.

Re: New Publisher PLAYDIUS to Bring Four Titles to Nintendo Switch eShop
These all look cool, except sU, doesn't really interest me at all. Neuro Voider seems promising just for the co op and customization options.

The body makes it look a lot like a gundam, specifically the ZZ gundam.

Re: Iron Combat: War in the Air Starts the Battle in Europe on 16th April
Kinda reminds me of Liberation Maiden and I really enjoyed that game. Maybe I will end up downloading this and giving it a shot.
