Still alive thread

know there is no Kojima, I keep imagining this is going to be a Mechwarrior Crossed with Metal Gear Stealth missions.

What do you think, nigger? I think you should actually try to put some information about the GAME in your post.

There is at least one playable girl and it's a nip game so there's a good chance she'll be cute.

Was that game actually shit or was everyone just butthurt over the fact that it wasn't turn based?

What exactly was the problem with Evolved again?
Gameplay-wise it's pretty good and feels and plays exactly as I envisioned being in a wanzer.

But Front Mission is a TRPG. How is turning it into a Multiplayer action brawler fateful to the series at all "gameplay-wise"? Even if its a good action multiplayer game, can't you understand why fans of the TRPG might be concerned? This sorta reminds me of what happened with the Bureau: XCOM Declassified.

FME was released in the dark age of video games.
PS360 generation of casuals flocked to the consoles and were only willing to play cinematic movies with press x to win. And while cut-scene heavy FME was a pretty traditional 3rd person action game that heavily relies on dodging, dealing with multiple enemies at once and classic megaman style boss battles. You could cheese it if you knew what you were doing, but you couldn't just hide somewhere and regenerate health or defeat hard boss through QTE.
So casuals hated it.
Meanwhile jaded and angry nerds irritated by casualization of their hobby only accepted old games, and naturally when Front Mission that isn't tactics game came out they dismissed it without playing.
And for Armored Core crowd it was too simplistic, without internal parts, radiators, different targeting systems and all that jazz.

So the game flopped, both critically and financially. It didn't find its audience. There were none at the time.
If it was released today, in an age where normalfags boast about getting good at dark souls and monster hunter, it would meet at least moderate success. And considered how starved mech community by now is, it would probably become a cult classic.
I ain't saying it's prefect game of course, it has a lot of shit points, like retarded story, bad acting, forced terrible on-foot segments, barebones multiplayer and terrible textures being PS360 multiplat and all.
But as far as core gameplay and campaign contents go it totally is worth a playthrough.
It's not even a bad PC port either, having unlimited framerate and internal resolution support with proper AA options.

Faithful as in if you were the singular wanzer pilot, not a commander giving orders from the above.
That kind of mentality is what I'm talking about. It doesn't have a number so there is nothing wrong with spin off being of different genre.
Gun Hazard didn't get shit for being 2D side scroller because it was released in different era.
Neither did Front Mission Online or Final Fantasy Tactics.
But in 2010s it was different attitude.

It actually did, hence why you never saw another Front Mission: Assault Suits Rip-off again.
Nigger shut up.

It was made by the same guy as Vaulken

...

Will this board get fixed ever?
