A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

I’m going to have to check out Project Wingman, it sounds and looks really fun. No idea why but your comment made me want to go back and try to continue my playthrough of Armored Core 6. Not sure where that thought came from reading your comment, but I think that’s how I’ll spend my weekend if I find the time.
It's not perfect but it is pretty great great - definitely better than what I'd expect from an indie Ace Combat clone made three people. Just watch out for the ridiculous amount of enemies in some missions.
I really want to get into Armored Core someday, starting with the PS1 original. I've heard gameplay changes pretty significantly every few games and I'd like to test which type will be the most fun for me. Are you familiar with the series in general or just like AC6?
I haven’t finished any game in the series so I can’t fully comment, but if my memory serves me right the control scheme prior to maybe AC4 was absolutely awful. There’s a really good video on YouTube that pretty accurately describes my feelings on the series from what I’ve played. I don’t remember exactly who made it now but I want to say either VaatiVidya or Iron Pineapple. If I find it I’ll edit my comment and include the link.
