We are not getting another Armored Core, aren't we?

nobody expected armored core 6 to be real, but here we are, who says we wont get 7?

3 million sales in a single year for a niche mecha franchise is massive. Have the previous games ever sold more than a million?

The null capacity of patience that these zoomers have is less than that of flies, imbecile the majority waited 10 years and you complain because no news came out in only 1 year.

I'm saying than 3 millions are pocket change for a dev with a single title that sold 25 million units.

I hope fucking hope not. series died after the last PS2 release. 4 and 4A were both middling. I just replayed them last year. I will not be convinced otherwise that AC hasn't sucked since 7th gen.

You have to remember they are unironically suicidal so they project that depressive void onto all things.

Man the obsession you people have with money you'll never see is so odd. What is worrying about sales going to do? Either the next thing comes out or it doesn't, enjoy what you have in front of you now. You might not even make it long enough to see the next game.

Sure, but how much did AC6 cost in comparison?
>>
>>683707748
Umm because the game didn't sell more than Elden Ring

>I'm saying than 3 millions are pocket change for a dev with a single title that sold 25 million units.
Completely retarded argument. Elden Ring is the biggest 3rd party japanese games in like 30 years, alongside MH World.
Any other game either From or Capcom develop won't even come close to sell those numbers.

By that logic, they should never greenlit any other project that is not a sequel to those two games.
>>
>>683707602
We got this one when Verdict day sold like ass.
So yeah now another one is guaranteed.

just delete the thread and remake it bro, you're not coming back from that

>>683708704
AC6 also probably took half the budget Else Ring took to make.
>>
>>683708132
Devs hard focusing on games that sell instead of experimenting on new games is the reason why the industry is in such a bad state today.

The two go hand in hand, but I would say that the death of the ego is worse.

The fuck are you talking about, we'll be getting a For Answer/Verdict Day etc one for sure at some point. Armored Core was always niche as fuck on top of being a dead franchise, and despite both sold WAY fucking better than anyone could expect. The fact Fromsoft greenlite 6 in the first place means, odds are we can get more. People comparing it to Elden ring numbers are absolutely retarded.

You took a shot on something new for you. No harm in not liking it if you were trying something new.
>>
>>683707981
Have the previous games combined even sold that much?
>>
>>683707602
You’re getting another one, they already said long ago that AC6 surpassed expectations and they want to continue. Is this official news just going to be an excuse for tourists who never pay attention to shitpost? Technically we knew the sales like a month or two after release from that voice actor saying like 2.7 million.

Fromsoft made an AC game that essentially satisfied no one. I know so many Elden Ring normalfags who literally only bought AC6 to "fund and support the ER DLC" and they thought AC6 was just mid Sekiro in the end.

And then obviously you had the Armored Core fanbase which completely disowned this game because it plays nothing like Armored Core.

And then you had FAfags who thought this game would be FA 2.0 because it had Miyazaki's name on it, and were disappointed that it wasn't.

And then you had VDfags who expected the game to have good team-based multiplayer, but they also got disappointed because of the terrible balancing of the game.

Isn't 3 million the units sold? I don't know what the actual profit is.

>>683707602
Shadow of the Erdtree sold over 5 million in a week. That is most definitely an opportunity cost bomb of divided development resources.
>>
>>683707602
The designs just aren't appealing. No one wants to play as a faceless bucket of scrap metal. Just use popular sleek humanoid mecha designs found in anime like Darling in the Franxx and Evangelion.

It would explain why the game was in Development Hell for almost ten years. As a tourist I loved the game but I also understand the veterans.

I think it has nothing to do with quality whatsoever. Mechs just aren't appealing to westerners.

3mil in one year on multiple systems is pretty lackluster, but not a surprise considering it's the 6th game in an already niche series.
>>
>>683712971
what kind of men don't like giant combat robots designed by the japanese?
>>
>>683712208
Yes, mecha isn't just "CLANG CLANG CLANG" and "WHIRRR SHIK WHIRRR SHIK."
Other examples would be Code Geass, SSSS.Gridman, and Macross Frontier.
>>
>>683713265
None of those series are popular because of the mechas

I loved it, speaking as someone who likes all of From's post DeS output except for Elden Ring. I admittedly don't have much experience with Armored core outside of playing maybe twenty missions of the first game.
>>
>>683713265
If your mecha has people faces talking for more than 5 minuets without a fight scene then it's trash. Might as well watch anime instead.

Yes, but AC6 released in 2023. Gaming is HUGE these days, even compared to 2013 when VD was released. It's why you can't really do sales comparisons like that.

Good picks.
Code Geass has some retarded moments but every story a super “smart” protagonist only achieve things because he’s enlightened by the writers suffers from that. That one tv show with the House doctor felt the same.
