I’ll always appreciate Cold Heart just from the fact that he has balls of steel to push on in defending the lab, not even caring if said attacker is a goddamn AC and the fact he’s one of the earliest consorts to upgrade to a AC. What makes him even cooler for me is that he’s a tag team with another Raven.
Man, I just love how FromSoft gave these guys each their own backstories. From piloting MT deathtraps to finally becoming AC pilots themselves. Hope we get to see more of the consort system in AC6.
Consorts is like a closest to a friend to me but sadly this is how raven live,never gain any attachments. But sometimes it relief to hear some of them promote to AC after receiving how happy they are through the mail.
Huntress was my favorite MT pilot. Always loved her. Even when she betrayed me I was okay with it. "Bold decision, I don't think you've been paying attention however. You've learned nothing from my hiring you along my path of destruction, it seems."
Huntress really fooled me with her seemingly bubbly and friendly (for Armored Core anyway) email. shame that she ended up being a shill for the Controller. in regards to Gaidoz (my other favourite AC), I wish he would appear more often, he seemed to be a chill dude.
The betrayal in Magna Ruins made Duminas my favorite of the consorts. Given that my build and piloting skills were pretty bad at the time, her speed and notable damage output helped me get out of that encounter alive. And besides, the Bermuda definitely looks the coolest of the MT consorts in my opinion.
Personally, my favorite consort is Apple Boy, the guy is with you from the begining and he only gets better as time goes on. I bring him along even if I'm confident I can deal with the mission on my own.
The only issue i have with apple boy is there is so little about him. I wanted more emails, more story missions with him where we the player see his improvement.
The consorts helped me realize how much I love the MTs design in AC. Love those lil things! Such fun blocky machines, wish they'd make model kits of em
For huntress I thought if I hire her and keep her safe for all the mission with her that she won't betray. For Frigale and Cold Heart I went out of mine way to keep them both alive due to the balls of steel they had against the controllers units.
Credit due to them both they did stand and fight, there was no running away and in an mt as well. I think poor huntress however kind as we are to her was just too loyal to controller rule.
Liked how they tied-in character development as the story progressed. Would have liked to see at least one of them spread their wings with better AC design and skill levels.
@@armoredcorelore Apple Boy had the middle ground new kid feel to him albeit a little on the 'basic' side. SL had Eclair that wasn't to shabby on her skill level and I liked her attitude but that was probably the hardest of the MT-to-AC pilots out there that put up somewhat of a challenge. Shame they barely get above E- or D-grade...
It would be neat and think of the lore and relationships. Could you pull the trigger so easily in an ac if you see an mt running for its life for firing off in mad panic. That was you once.
I appreciate that you're putting in the hard work of trying to decode the Moon Rune books, since English speakers only get so much lore information. You're doing god's work here.
Another feature that I didn't explore much in my youth because my arrogance and stubbornness in completing these missions solo, proving that I was the best pilot for the job. But I see here, there was some neat lore and companionship to explore by just watching these consorts grow and develop within the story. Makes me want to play it again soon! ^_^
I admit my was more the money side, i wanted all the credits ha ha. But if you do play it again i hope you'll give these consorts some time to shine. Just watch out for wall.
Its just a shame he is not used more in the story. I would have loved to seen his growth maybe more emails or even a mission where the raven and he works together.
Strangely enough, I only ever used consorts in one mission on my first playthrough. I forget which of the two missions that had them as an option it was, but I hired on Squad One for one mission I was stuck on. Otherwise, I kept the extra money and I had been told you got better rankings for going without them. I still don't know if that's true. In the end, that was a mistake, because they made my second playthrough more fun. Huntress is ever popular, but Duminas was probably my favorite of the MT pilots.
Well the opinion on consorts is a spilt between ravens. However like you i think they make it a bit more fun, i played the whole game first time without using any consorts, but this time playing it through for the videos i used them and ah it was so nice to have back-up.
Only bits as really I'm a very much a casual history enjoyer. Plus AC never really touches on the lives of ravens or mercenaries which is a shame, but there has to be a line between reality and gameplay.
Greetings, I've been inspired by your Armored Core Lore videos since I've found your channel, I want to create a similar channel like you with my home language, is there any advice that I need to get before starting it?
Well i guess i would say be honest with your viewers, make sure to do research on subjects, practise scripts and keep a good balance between the channel and life. Oh and don't worry about TH-cam numbers.
It would seem that for now he’s making videos mainly for 3rd and then 5th gen. After that, I assume he will revisit the other gens and make videos on topics he didn’t cover.
Nate is correct and i have a document of items to go back to after I'm done with the main series as there seems to be a desire for V and verdict day lore.
I love the customized MTs, makes me think of Char Aznble from Gundam and his customized red Zaku II, I absolutely miss playing with it in Dynasty Warriors Gundam 2. Customized "lesser" mechs are always the best.
I’ll always appreciate Cold Heart just from the fact that he has balls of steel to push on in defending the lab, not even caring if said attacker is a goddamn AC and the fact he’s one of the earliest consorts to upgrade to a AC. What makes him even cooler for me is that he’s a tag team with another Raven.
He is pretty ballsy and yes he ends up tag teaming with fragile in ex arena.
@@armoredcoreloreWait,what!?!

It would be neat and give me more to talk about he he.
Honestly.
This system for consorts is just great. I want battle buddies in AC6.
I'm pretty sure we have a reasonably good chance of expecting a coop mode. Fingers crossed
Would be fun and imagine what sort of consorts we could get in space.
@@armoredcorelore Agreed.
@@123Pizazz I've come from the future........ Buddy.

Very true and your right its nice to read about the humans behind or inside these machine of war
It was cool to see some of these guys become Ravens as the story developed. I'd love to see that narrative beat used again.
It would be neat and maybe get some alien consort too in ac6.
@@armoredcorelore man I wish that was true but the closest you get is totally human kate
I always find it very cool that the game makes you feel the world advances with you rather than you are the only one making progress.
Agreed a world that moves on without the player being the one to move it all the time makes it feel more alive.
Huntress was my favorite MT pilot. Always loved her. Even when she betrayed me I was okay with it. "Bold decision, I don't think you've been paying attention however. You've learned nothing from my hiring you along my path of destruction, it seems."
Exile laying down the law.
@@armoredcorelore it got bad. It felt like being a linebacker for American football and beating the life out of an office worker.

I would agree i think the mt pilots to ac where really well done here. Could have used some more time with them all.
Sometimes the grunt characters is more interesting than the main characters
I would agree.
The betrayal in Magna Ruins made Duminas my favorite of the consorts. Given that my build and piloting skills were pretty bad at the time, her speed and notable damage output helped me get out of that encounter alive.

I like it, i think its these experiences that make AC different for each player.
Squad 1 is unironically really good

@@armoredcorelore his description changes at one point in the consort selection
@@procow2274 it does can't remeber the exact wording but we lose him being talked about as newcomer and instead about how he's progressed.
The consorts helped me realize how much I love the MTs design in AC. Love those lil things! Such fun blocky machines, wish they'd make model kits of em
Now that would be cool and maybe not as expensive as all the ac models.
This is a feature we need back in AC6!
It would be neat.
I love scylia i wish i knew more about her lore
Sadly there is very little about some pilots which is a shame as sometimes they really do stick with you as a character.
For huntress I thought if I hire her and keep her safe for all the mission with her that she won't betray. For Frigale and Cold Heart I went out of mine way to keep them both alive due to the balls of steel they had against the controllers units.

Ajante looks like my ACVD AC 🤣
Pretty cool then.
I would love a game where you start off as an mt pilot then upgrade to an ac later.
I'd want it just to see the absolute cracked MT players that beat the game without upgrading to an ac.
It would be neat and think of the lore and relationships. Could you pull the trigger so easily in an ac if you see an mt running for its life for firing off in mad panic. That was you once.
There was some Japanese AC game like that. Can't remember the name. Might have been a fan work. Maybe 'Muscle Tracer' was the name?
I appreciate that you're putting in the hard work of trying to decode the Moon Rune books, since English speakers only get so much lore information. You're doing god's work here.
I remember I really loved the Huntress voice actress
She does have a good voice even say sorry if her attacks hit you.
Can't forget about Apple boy too! The new hire who works alongside you in your raven exam who like you eventually builds a craft to call his own
Never forgotten, just has very little about him. Which is sad.
Nice work man on the Consorts
Thank you very much.

@@armoredcorelore Looks like we were both greedy when we played. Lol. But will do, I will let the consorts come out and play with me! ^
I would always hire them omg and that song at that time ong
They are neat but well sometime the ai likes wall a little too much.
Glory to the Supports!
Glory to the ones behind the stage!
Great video as always
Ajante or Sparten. Following you into the Magna Ruins vs. really heavy metal. Difficult choice.
Tempest is my favorite Consort.
A good choice, i think i would have to go with Bermuda.
Everyone always seems to forget that Apple Boy is *the best* consort u can get

You can hire a consort in Destroy Gun Emplacement and still S rank it, if your AP are 7000 or above. That's the only instance I know of
I liked this information never knew it
Always happy to be sharing lore.
Have you read or watch anything about the pmcs of our ?world

Not according to the official time line it is not. armoredcore.fandom.com/wiki/Armored_Core_10_Works_Complete_File
Too bad we never saw the system again
We sort of got it in for answer. Just more nexts and no mts.
I love the customized MTs, makes me think of Char Aznble from Gundam and his customized red Zaku II, I absolutely miss playing with it in Dynasty Warriors Gundam 2. Customized "lesser" mechs are always the best.
