I have often likened Fromsoft and Bethesda in the way that while Bethesda outsources their bug fixing to the community, Fromsoft outsources their story to the community. In both cases the community adds more than there really is and acts like the developer earned the credit.
Well I'm currently playing Armored Core 6, and I gotta hand it to em, there's basically no story whatsoever. It's just giant robots. And it's pretty fantastic.
Bro, I cried for AC6's story. What insanity Handler Walter has to go through. And how can forget buddy. What more story do you need than two bros fucking over a tyrannical megacorp?
