Yeah... that haunting soundtrack, the grit, the cold weight of every missile launch-it hits different. New AC games look slick, sure, but they don’t have that oppressive atmosphere, that desperate, lonely dogfight vibe. Back then it felt like every sortie could be your last. This was when FromSoft still made you *feel* the cockpit, man.

>>716473565 (OP)
cool video OP i wasnt crazy about AC4 but may try out ac4a one day. watching that video though reminds me that too many games from the previous console generation moving into 6th gen (360/ps3) sorry from a deepfried look where everything has bloom and high contrast and a filter over it. ruined resident evil 5 but perhaps it may work in ac4 because they make it sound like the world is toxic and contaminated by those retard particles

Kinda a nefag to the series though, I remember playing AC2 on the PS1 demo disk and liked it and then always looked at all the consecutive games being released always thinking "man, I should get into AC" but it never really went anywhere.

ill give it a try sometime. personally i always felt that the electronic music of the earlier games was amuch better fit and way more authentic. the more they have leaned into vocals and increasingly experimental music the more pretentious and annoying it became. its a game with giant robots shooting lasers at eachother. it doesnt have a plot developed enough to need an experimental cinematic soundtrack. not every game need a "cinematic" soundtrack. a lot of modern AC music reminds me of the evergrace music people meme about for being totally schizophrenic.

its alright (the song you posted) imo the ac6 soundtrack is less annoying than ac4 which is good but again sounds very generic. armored core just works better when it leans into being sci fi and uses electronic music again imo. 90s electronic genres are coming back and its because they are interesting and fun to listen too and work well with videogames. i think something more in line with the metroid prime games would probably work well. metroid prime has a lot of stuff like backwards breathing samples and such mixed in that make tracks ominous but attention grabbing. armored core should be like that. dark music with interesting sounds layered in but still electronic music focused. i think everyone is sick of all games having the same sort of music..

i mean the music should also invoke some sort of mood, a lot of modern armored core music is schizo without a solid song structure but it doesnt really make me feel anything either its just annoying and contrived. there are even drakengard songs i think you could feasibly work out to if you were just cracked out on an energy drink on a treadmill or something and those tracks are notorious for being like the evergrace ost. but the reason i bring up the evergrace ost is because it isnt just the song structure itself but the sound and tone it has that dictates if it even meshes with the game or if its purely distracting and removes players from the scene because they are turning the volume down

>>716476883

im not trying to force you to like my music its ust my opinion maybe just go listen to the ost on your own of the older games. you may find something you like or you may totally disagree with me. i just remember that there were more tracks in the older OSTs that i thought sounded cool and i enjoyed listening too. i should probably listen to the ac6 soundtrack again myself before i shit on it so much. i just remember i went through it a while back and it had 3 or so songs that stood out to me but the rest just sounded like modern game music and by that i mean music that didnt even strike me as armored core but just something that i can see in lots of other games appealing to a wider audience.

i personally thought this was a cool theme for something as simple as a menu where you read shit. it has the tone of armored core, interesting sound effects/samples/ an ominous threatening tone, still somewhat upbeat though to keep you motivated. checks off a lot of the bullet points that i think the soundtrack should have in general. im not saying the modern games need to sound like THIS. what im saying is in the same way that this track checks off these bullet points they should try to move back in a direction that also can check these same boxes off. this obviously would sound dated to many people but as a frame work i think this general "vibe" is one sort of song among others that an armored core track should contain.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jejL2ebtEW4&

again i also really like the metroid prime soundtracks. they also do this same thing where they make ominous music but with an interesting enough song structure to keep you engaged and wanting to explore, and they keep the general sci fi feeling of the world by including strange and unorthodox effects or samples they use in the songs.

why dont you just listen to the armored core 2 sound track tonight there are multiple playlists on youtube. idk why this is. one may be the game ost and the other one may be some sort of arranged album. this is also another cool theme where not every song needs to sound like this but this general vibe again should be at least somewhere in an armored core track.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P51OjEFEc3I

again im not saying that ac6 or ac7 should sound like ac 2 or ac3 my core argument really is just that there is a sort of tone or vibe that the old tracks have and if you can put that into words there surely is a way to do that while also making it sounds a little more modern for "modern" audiences. i like that the older armored core soundtracks sound authentic that they are not trying to be anything more than they are and its just music for a cool game with robots in it.

yeah this one isnt bad. this is leagues better than pretty much anything in ac4. it still suffers though in places for having sound effects that sound more like the thing you would expect in a movie trailers. if you know what im talking about you know what im talking about. but thats a small issue. i am a huge proponent of videogame music using unique sounds that fit the vibe of the song but dont sound like something you normally encounter in everyday media. just helps give it that edge to immerse you more and not remind you of normal day real world stuff.

People say it was a deliberate choice for heavy mechanical feel and then the mechs all spin about in the cutscenes. All their ps1 action games controlled like that too. They just like to stick to what works, I think. From's adjusted to react to positive change a lot more over the decade.

im on the fence between 2 and 3 i agree with you that in many ways 3 improved on 2. in terms of mech design i also agree somewhere around 2 or 3 is where it peaked aesthetically. (if im understanding you correctly) there is stuff in 4 which looks really good but there are more stinker designs in 4 imo than 2 and 3. 4 is where everything just started to get too crazy. because i didnt like 4 i never gave 4a a chance but ive been meaning to do it, i heard its better in every way.

i always felt like armored core "not having a memorable cast" was a stylistic choice that worked well for the game and world they were making. it conveyed the sense that it wasnt worth getting to know the other pilots because they wouldnt survive that long anyway. most of them you only talk to once or twice. armored core always stood out to me as unique for not showing you the other pilots faces or anything. this obviously is convenient because FROM doesnt need to waste time on character design and such, but its one of the few games where i would argue it adds to the game and makes it stand out instead of detracting from it. i dont think it needs a memorable cast and if anything trying to create one would just make it less distinct.

it isnt that its too "weird". its just bad. i said earlier i can appreciate and even workout to a lot of the music in the drakengard games. those arguably are more schizo. but they accomplish something which is giving you adrenaline. which is also perfect for a game where you are killing a bunch of shit. they also create a sense of danger anxiety and unease. this is music that is weird but accomplishes what it sets out to do.

AC4s ost ranges from boring background stuff that doesnt register in your brain at all, to out of place shit that doesnt even suit the mood of the game or whats happening on screen often times and is just annoying or lame sounding. the guitar work is super uninspired crap and at the bare minimum they could have put it through some distortion filters or something. the singing is terrible and no one asked for singing in an armored core game. i could go on and on but its just a weak sound track. AC1-3 is much much better and a lot more memorable and has a lot of tracks in it you can appreciate outside the game as well. i dont see many people at all doing that with ac4. its a very half baked soundtrack. experimental doesnt make something automatically good.

and on the topic of the cinematic component of the argument, every game increasingly has been aping the same tired tactic of trying to move their OST in a more cinematic direction which is another reason why OSTs from the 90s and 2000s stand out so much more than shit from 7th gen and onward increasingly as time has progressed. most games OSTs are taking to much inspiration from the same places.

Not even close old King only shines for just the Cradles after that he's basically dead weight in the final Showdown, he does not have an inch of the same impact as say Snail, Iguazu or even Michigan. And White Glint was meh in the entire thing if I'm being honest other than shitting on Ortzdarava and Fragile

It really doesn't, especially when you assume they "mog" any 6 character just for the fact you remember the equivalent of a spark notes in their involvement in 4A if any capacity. Not like it matters since they're not even the best characters in their own game since Wynne D, May Greenfield, and Thermidor exist

How do you know it doesn't accomplish what it set out to do? Did you make it?
If you are going to use public perception "no one asked for singing in armored core" (who cares? they liked it anyway) then don't also say it's not memorable because 4 and FA are some of the most popular soudtracks in the franchise to this day, AC1-3 beep beep boop music really isn't as interesting. And yes, people can appreciate it outside of the game. It's good because it's good.
I don't give a fuck about cinematic component of argument because it doesn't apply to this game.

it doesnt accomplish anything because I (the player) do not feel anything from the music but annoyance and irritation. The music should invoke some sort of emotion that enhances the experience and if it cant do that, at the bare minimum at least try to make it sound cool. share your favorite ac4 songs ill tell you what i think about them. Too many songs in ac4 just took me out of the experience and made me think what the fuck were these guys thinking, this sounds fucking terrible.

The music from AC1-3 fits the tone of the game more and at the absolute bare minimum doesnt sound like pretentious autistic shit trying to elevate the game into something beyond what it is. They had a kojima moment with that soundtrack. there is a reason why young people are getting into 90s and 2000s electronic music again, because it sounds fucking cool, its fun to listen to, its totally different than corpo slop, and because zoomers didnt grow up listening to it, to them its brand new uncharted territory. there is a reason early AC music pops up in playstation techno remixes and the like because it just sounds cool and is fun to listen to.

the 7th gen is fucking terrible for this because this was the generation where every game tried to become some melodramatic emotional experience when it didnt need to be. it IS contrived. yes the OST IS pretentious non authentic crap.

there are multiple issues here. there are songs with guitar and songs that are pretentious and weird for the sake of being weird and standing out.

The guitar tracks really sound like someone had no artistic vision for what the game was supposed to be. there are 100s of ways you can make a guitar sound. the sound they went with in the game is the most generic form of a guitar i can think of and almost sounds like royalty free music. like what a guitar in a commercial would sound like. it sounds like the idea of a guitar. i really like guitar stuff typically in games, i mainly listen to rock if not some form of electronic music. so you would think i would like this. but it sounds extremely lazy FLAT and uninspired. are you really honestly going to tell me that you think the guitar in AC4 isnt something that could have been improved on? it isnt the guitar its the execution. im pretty sure persona or shinmegami tensei or whatever the fuck has plenty of good guitar tracks.

The other tracks i called pretentious i call pretentious because as i said they are just weird for the sake of being weird. that doesnt make them good or pleasant to listen to. the singing is out of place and sounds bad. lots of japanese games do this for some reason where they put in vocals in games that dont need them and its almost always when they are doing this thing where they are trying to make the game seem more emotional or cinematic. and often times it just comes off as incredibly corny and detracts from the game. less is more and often times they has the opposite effect.

yeah i said non authentic because a lot of the music just sounds like they wanted to have certain elements but they never bothered integrating them in a way that made a finished or polished track. i dont remember a SINGLE song from ac4. just my impressions that i have tried to describe to you.

its just contrarian autism
its a similar breed of action game fags, being eternally assblasted over other series and styles of games getting more popular (ie souls) and then reaching too hard for gay reasons to hate anything new

if theyre going to shit on the new ACs, they should do it for the right reasons. kind of like im disappointed with very old ACs for the duels being just "walk in circles and shoot without being retarded and you automatically win" simulator, and the middle days of AC for being too much of a mosquitofest, in disappointed with AC6 for the normal enemy encounters being a total joke for 99% the game. i hope we get an AC game where none of the parts of the action stick out as weaker than the rest

like yeah, ac6 has issues, stagger system is shit, the only boss that made you actually think a lot about homing projectiles was nerfed to the floor, some balance could be better, they want to make a game around hitbox dodging but it doesnt have a lot of conventions for neat dashing through combos that even Dark Souls 2 had, so you mostly just move completely out of the way, etc
But the overall action is still pretty good and it has lots of great fights, a series-mogging character roster to go with it. If im supposed to hate AC6 for it then the whole series goes into the dumpster by that logic

In PvE its literally irrelevant, its a silly hill to die on: Every enemy is really easy to keep track of by just moving your camera, the soft-lock will perform just as well (actually better) 99.9999% of the time.

5 is closer to a traditional AC experience while VD was made from the ground up with multiplayer in mind. And the multiplayer WAS pretty fucking fun. They had unique fights from other games. The last boss in VD was a memberberry but it was a pretty fucking cool one given the massive difference in power between your manlet bot and the thing you were fighting. While it was clearly multiplayer centric it had a bunch of solo only modifiers you could engage in. And designing a UNAC, which itself is just a formula front tier AI, that was actually decent in the regular singleplayer was rather exhilarating if you had autism.

As for divisiveness they changed up the damage formula, slowed the game down, and virtually removed free flight. A lot of people who were practically weaned on 4 and 4a obviously would bounce right off of it.

For the tier list. I don't feel like 1st gen is more enjoyable to replay than 3rd gen (both halfs).

Ibis's basic fucking movement is literally zooming to your 180 degree and 2 miles away to snipe you from that far. And even then it's usually completely random in that range so it can end up on your shoulder, just staying in front of you, behind you, and it's all based on your pure reaction speed.

Lockon isn't that big of a deal but it does lower skill. And with the speed of projectiles it inarguably hit player movement and maneuvers. While stagger and being able to extend it's fucking duration ensured that even the biggest idiot in existence will be able to land their 100% to 0 combos in pvp.

While in single it's an extra punishment on the player to create false equivalency in a game in which the AI has infinite engine, near infinite heat, and impossible stats.
