Armored Core VI Fires of Rubicon has been out for a couple of weeks now, and some players have already seen the ending and the endings after that one, too. We enjoyed the game, giving it an 8.25 out of 10 – you can read our review here. If you haven’t jumped into From Software’s latest action title yet, though, you might be in luck because a new patch that's now live buffs various weapons and adjusts some boss attacks.
Armored Core 6 Players Have Fallen For Rusty
30.08.2023 - 01:33 / thegamer.com
Armored Core 6, just like the majority of FromSoftware's titles, is a pretty depressing game at the best of times. Almost everyone in the game is using you to further their own cause, and you're more than happy to take their credits so you can strap another laser rifle to your shoulder. That's probably why when V.IV Rusty shows up to help you out in the mission Operation Wallclimber, most of you are immediately smitten by his charm.
Despite having only launched less than a week ago, fans of Armored Core 6 have already declared Rusty the game's best boy, mostly down to the fact that he's pretty much the only person in the game that actually shows an inkling of kindness towards you. You'll find mutliple posts about the guy on the game's subreddit, most of them accompanied by a meme of some kind declaring their love for him, and how much they enjoy being called "Buddy" instead of by a code or a disrespectful nickname.

It also helps that Rusty has some of the game's coolest moments and accompanies you on the game's final mission if you make the correct choices. Of course, I won't spoil the game here in case any of you reading are still battling your way through Rubicon, and you definitely won't want to look at the replies to any of these Reddit post as there's some pretty spoiler-havey discussions going on.
I will give you the general thoughts of the fanbase on Rusty though, as u/theredskjyking says that the character "fills me with hope". If that isn't enough to convince you that Rusty is officially a fan favorite amongst FromSoftware fans, u/-ninc- says that they were "bouncing in my seat with a big ol' smile" every time Rusty was on screen, while u/Mallefus is happy "the AC community universally agrees Rusty is a good boi". He is definitely the best boy.
In other news, when fans of Armored Core 6 aren't failling head over heels for Rusty, they're creating the most ridiculous mech skins they can with the game's surprsingly in-depth customization tools. We've had a whole bunch of ridiculous things shared over the weekend, but players had already managed to recreate characters from other games, such as Kirby, Solaire, a Creeper, and a whole lot more. They also managed to create Pepsiman too, just in case Raven wants to bring in that sweet sponsorship money when out on a sortie or two.

WoW Classic hardcore player feigns death for so long they actually die
WoW Classic recently got its own hardcore mode, which for most of us means one thing: people dying and losing enormous amounts of progress in amusing ways (and maniacs hitting max level in a few days). Hardcore modes are increasingly popular across all games, and take various forms, but the common element is permadeath and, in MMOs especially, that can mean hundreds of hours of playtime disappearing in the blink of an eye. Or in this case, when one unfortunate soul shut their eyes for too long.

What We Played #618 Armored Core VI, Baldur’s Gate 3 & New Zealand Story
As the school holidays wind to a close, and those heady weeks of FIFA games and lengthy RPG sessions fade into memory, my household has had one last gaming hurrah. I’ve been making my way through all of the things I saw at Gamescom, and carried on with some of them when I got home. Wayfinder has become the daily MMO hit, and I’ve been playing with my son in his first true stint of online gaming. Alongside that I’m still playing Baldur’s Gate 3, and I’m probably going to finish up just as the PS5 version appears. It’s safe to say it’s very, very good, and if you haven’t been able to play yet, you should be excited.

Some Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon Players Are Not Happy With Gameplay Experience
The Armored Core franchise just received a new installment this year. This game was a huge surprise for fans of the series as well. During last year’s The Game Awards, FromSoftware surprised fans with the return to this IP after ten years of being dormant. But now that the latest game installment is out, Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon, you might be surprised that some feel FromSoftware lied about the gameplay experience. Is this game proving to be too much like their Souls gameplay experience than what the original Armored Core franchise offered?
