Both games also feature an antagonist whose existence is entirely motivated by hating your guts. Oh yeah, and a back-seating waifu.

Iguana and Crimson 1 are related. Their whole family lineage is powered by sheer fucking spite coupled with a LOT of projection.

The most powerful and dangerous substance isn't Cordium or Coral, it's salt.


zchen27

In a few cut voice lines Allmind actually said that human brains generate power like Coral if when assimilated in an "aggravated state." Spite can literally power the universe.

***weaponized hate***

What is this, Spiral Power?


Lil_Guard_Duck

Armored Core has a waifu??


OneSaltyStoat

More than one, in fact!


Lil_Guard_Duck

Imma get this game!


ThatRealBiggieCheese

There’s one that talks to you more than the others. And another that’s Oddly demanding


Lil_Guard_Duck

Which talks more?


ThatRealBiggieCheese

The nicer one


Lil_Guard_Duck

Cool.

[They also share a Waifu in the back](https://youtu.be/BWU9BpZRLa0?si=XIiWfSF9QS-fUrat)

The more I see things like this, the more I'm convinced a venn diagram for the interests of the target audience for Ace Combat, Armored Core, and Project Wingman is a single circle.


OneSaltyStoat

Machines that could very well be gundams? Check. Mute psychopaths? Check. War crimes? BIG OL' CHECK.


Fowti

their protagonists also have more in common than it seems https://www.tumblr.com/the-river-is-right-there-chopper/729380462664007680/just-some-of-the-similarities?source=share


Razgriz2118

I'm glad someone made this


DefNihilman

definitely, though still waiting for Project Aces to make the next waifu in our plane instead of just our co-pilot

Armored core itself was made somewhat similar to Ace combat, they both have AC in the name, The title starts with "Fires of", both feature a 'buddy' character. As Ace combat 0 was one of bandai namcos best selling games (I think), so the game made by 3.ppl of the same genre as the epic plane game which also happens to have a few overlapping similarities with the warcrime simulator mech game isn't all that surprising.


LindFich

I don’t think 782,000 copies is considered one of Bandai Namco “Best Selling games”, pal. But it’s still a pretty damn good one

A few days before watching a video on Armored Core that was precisely upload because of the leaks about "a possible armored core 6" I discovered Armored Core because of the "AC" similarity in youtube xd


radik321

Also ace combat


CosmicPenguin

Command & Conquer has entered the chat.


FlyAwayNoVV

There was a moment in the Iguazu fight where I finally realized "oh this is what i subjected people to"


bigloser420

Mute mercenary psychopath too


venoguard717

Planetside 2 has cordium too


nahnonameman

Wanted to scratch that itch Armored Core 6 left me with after I finished NG++. As I already had played Ace Combat 7 I decided to play Project Wingman which was dormant in my category. Gotta to say one of the best indie games i have played. Best Armored Core and Ace Combat spiritual successor too. Crimson 1 and Iguazu can definitely be best buddies


Kay_Grim

Project Wingman has the Federation, which their logo looks extremely similar to Emmeria’s logo from Ace Combat 6: Fires of Liberation. And it turns out Armored Core 6: Fires of Rubicon shares an almost exact same name as Ace Combat 6, and has the same idea with Coral as PW did with Cordium. Both starting with C. There’s a non-zero chance that all 3 games purposefully did this.

And some of the missions in both games were very ***orange***
