I really do love the idea of the Dominant, and Evangel's obsession with it actively hampering his great potential. It makes him a personal favourite of mine.
@armoredcorelore in my youth, I was a fan of the theorem, too. Practiced so much at the game mastering my A.C. design til I could crush Evangel without breaking a sweat. The pinnacle for me was in the multi-player mode forcing myself to compete in 2v1 A.C. battles.
Evangel also is arguably better known for his role in Nexus intro movie, rather than actual game. That's where he is Shining (wink, wink, nudge, nudge) most as a Raven, by taking out numerous MT's, Helicopter's and shooting one leg off from enemy AC, making it crash into a building in the process. Hope you'll have comfortable breaktime ACL. :] See you on your next video!
His Nexus AC is one of my favorite AC designs! Shame he spends most of his screentime as a scrublord, but that one ending from Last Raven does redeem him a bit. Best of luck with your other projects btw!
Apparently, the Nexus Oracle craft parts are going to get referenced as a newly-modelled set of parts in Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon as the Arquebus 2-Leg setup. In short we are apparently getting Nexus Oracle parts in Armored Core 6.
i always admire the nexus design and his chill, sportive attitude at that time, poor dude got mad to attain power i wonder if we will met someone like that again in the next entry probably drunk on coral XD
He's just mad he got caught. We know what he did. Jokes aside, it would've been nice to get a little more screentime from him in Nexus. His time between Nexus and Last Raven isn't as well-explored as my namesake.
A blessed Sunday video, another month down, 2 to go. Thank you again for you endless lore videos, the wait is driving me mad but atleast I can relax watching this.
Regardless of his dominant male antics. His AC Build is quite meta let me explain... , in master of california ban list the Lemur 2 arm is banned for being too good all rounder offering high en and shell defense with relatively low weight and high accuracy, b83tp is the best booster if the internal can be stabilized. The Dingo 2 offer the fastest boost speed of all legs. And lastly the core cr89e offer solid Round EO with bullet speed that can catch most things along with pretty solid defense stat. Overall a very meta AC regardless of its armanent Choices, 2 banned part, 1 meta part, and a very solid choice for head and core. Another note his defense stats is up to 2000/1700 shell/en where 1700 is considered decent. With all that considered i felt like all that felt very missed out but idk maybe reconsider including it As for Evangel Himself, honestly his antics add so much of that 2000s campy edginess flavour lol. Speaking of which, heres a fun idea if you want to have fun :Write the lore of "DOMINANT THEORY.PDF" Fun knowing in world of mechs where Gundam resort to space wizards, Armored core Has ALPHA MALES instead.
While frustrating, for narrative reasons I can't help but love how most of the AC designs of this era effectively "cheated", while the player is stuck operating by rules that no one else has to adhere to. The player Raven is essentially a "badass normal", and it's a shame nobody in-universe seems to acknowledge this.
I think it stopped in AC4 but you're right. TBH I missed a lot of parts found in missions and only found them when checking parts guide yet more parts the better. Imagine getting parts in future games involves taking them off enemy ACs kind of like The Surge series, I dunno because what you've asked is old school game design. You're right but people have moved on to walking cutscenes, the old days...
I always wondered why he is expelled for supposedly working with Crest, but his mission record shows he greatly favored Mirage. I figured it was a typo or translation error, but liked to wonder if it could have been something more.
