Absolutely pace ruining, and in AC3 they're literally smaller than a grain of fucking rice i literally cant see the things to pick them up how was anyone supposed to know they were there????
AC will always mean armored core like how TF2 will always mean team fortress 2 all other uses of the acronym are invalid
I really wish I had the money for AC6. I tried getting the repack to run on Linux and after eating my CPU unpacking it all for an hour, I had a missing file error and just gave up and accepted my fate.
Be thankful, it gets a lot worse in Silent Line. I've only 100% AC:SL once, and i'm never going to do that again.
Oh, if you're playing via emulator, the PS2 armored core games is when you can start actually making your own emblems outside of the in-game editor. (link is for a converter tool) Just that you need a tool to convert it to the save format the game understands, also it image you're converting has to be a png, it can't be bigger than 128x128, can't have more than 255 colors (as the 256th 'color' is reserved for transparency). I have a couple examples below that i've done.
ShowShowI love the tortuga one may have to get into the game.
I'm pretty happy with my imported nine breaker emblem from ac2 so far
The Tortuga one is for my tank leg only run in 3, which it's what google translate says is spanish for turtle.
