I haven't played it yet, want to finish my BG3 play through first. However I never expected AC6 to be an absolutely huge event even though I'm quite sure I'm going to love the game.

Nah I beat the tutorial boss on the second try. It seems difficult at first because it hits hard and shoots homing missiles but if you simply assault boost to stay close or underneath it then there's not much it can do to you.

He's honestly not that hard, he's more just along the lines of your first Fromsoft boss that stands as a skill check.

The reason a lot of people think that he's hard is probably mostly coming from how quickly you have to fight him after just starting the game. Since it's mission based so fight him after only a few minutes, and there's a big jump from normal enemies to one like him in the early game.

Honestly once you beat him you'll probably have a lot better understanding of the mechanics and how combat works in this game. I think he's actually a really good first boss.

I have been practicing on him to get better with the camera since some of these inputs are pretty tricky, esp dual wielding (but you can';t edit you ac for this)

The tutorial boss took me a couple of tries to beat. I've never played an AC game before so I didn't really know what I was doing, and it was harder than I was expecting considering everything you fight before that is fodder, but being aggressive and swording it to death seemed to be the way to go. Still slightly annoyed about the invisible wall that surrounds the area you fight in which the boss can freely pass through, took a face full of missles a couple times trying to get at it.

AC4A had a tuning system that let you put points into different specs like turning speed or boost capacity. it was a small difference usually but it could mean things like an normally overweight loadout becoming an underweight loadout or unlimited energy. it also had stabilizers but i'm pretty sure those did nothing.

I think they went with a parts = stats mechanic instead so you'll be looting parts and constantly re-equipping to fit the situation

That's just it--I'm not very good at Souls games and people made it sound like this was a skills check type souls boss, but it wasn't--I guess unless it was trying to teach you to use melee more?

It's not a Souls game, it's Armored Core from what I've been seeing so far. Definitely more boss focus than before but that hardly makes it Souls. The main mechanic taken from Souls seems to be the repair system, the rest is just Armored Core with more bosses.

Honestly, I'm having mixed feelings about it. I loved previous Armored Core games, and while most missions still feel true to the Armored Core formula, the bosses clearly take influence from Souls games. They're huge, they hit like fucking trucks and they have tons of health that you only deal meaningful damage to while they're momentarily staggered. It makes the bosses feel tedious more than challenging. Because now it's about dodging huge, flashy attacks while waiting for a good moment to stagger them.

I wish the bosses were designed in the same way they designed fights against other ACs. Those still felt like classic Armored Core.

I'm sticking with it though, because outside of the bosses, everything else is amazing.

There is a tuning system. You even get extra actions from it like boost kick.

It was in the sense that you have to learn to melee, get used to dodging, know how to dodge off the ground with missiles, and a bunch of other Armored Core stuff. It's definitely not the hardest tutorial boss in a Fromsoft game, but it is a good tutorial boss

Same here, it's pretty good so far.

Mind you mech games have never exactly been mainstream. So shouldn't be surprising that it might not be a Souls style seller.

Great to see FROM haven't forgotten their roots though.

My lame-ass local gamestop didn't even get my pre-order in and I am kind of salty about it, =/ I started to just pre-order digital, but I figured "eh, I got the points to get this for a big cheaper at gamestop I can wait till the next day". Bah, lol.

My brother pre-ordered at the other gamestop across town and they had his copy in fine.

I am more upset that the dude didn't bother calling me to let me know it wasn't in so I wouldn't waste gas going up there more than the shipment being a day late. They used to do that in the past god damn it.

Managed to get an S rank for the Strider by using a relatively light set and using the gatling gun and sword with vertical missle launchers. I think it was the short time I got it done through with minimal damage taken.

I'm up to the start of what I think is the last chapter now. It's definitely way tougher than I remember older AC games being, and also way harder than Souls games. Fodder and even enemy AC's aren't too bad, but the bosses are definitely rough. It's probably the hardest game I've played in many years. People seem to be comparing it to Sekiro (which I haven't gotten to yet).

Chapter 1, 2, and 4 end bosses all took me a bit to get past. I had to take a break on Sunday after that last one because my hands were sore by the time I beat it. Nothing else took more than a few tries. It finally feels like my build options are good and open, though. The only thing I feel like I'm outright missing is the shoulder chain gun. It's a real shame, because it's one of my favorite weapons. Leg options feel a bit lacking, too, but they went for most of the archetypes, it feels like, you just don't get much besides a single piece for any archetype that's not biped.
