Extended OST. Ayre's boss fight. Bad ending final boss. Honestly, this theme is superb and really elevates the emotion in the fight especially in the second phase.
How did this game not at least get nominated for best game ost score of the year. Like seriously goddam listen to this
I agree, this game should have been nominated for best ost!!
@@bigyiggaming at least it got a reward unlike spider man 2
It's a bit ambient, so i can see why. But Rusty's theme alone, yeah, i can see that.
@@paradoxal69420 in terms of armored core music 6 is one of the weakest of the series.
@@mr.ilikespam6081 Damn. How legendary are the other games soundtracks then? 6 had me feeling all the emotions. Particularly this track, and the fight with Arquebus Balteus
"...I realized who you are. The spark of war... The fires that haunt Rubicon!"
"Humanity wants to burn it all! Everything on Rubicon! I won't let you... Your fire must die!"
"Raven... I...still...believe... our...shared...dream...
When the voice in your head finally goes away only to come back in a mech talking about symbiosis or some shit.
😂
Kinda feels like killing a family member with Ayre. She supports you and cares for you until you do this ending
She also stabs us in the heart several times during the fact. Saying that she respect our choice but that she had hoped we would understand that we could live in symbiosis
I feel bad for most of the endings as you have to betray someone in all of them. But I didn't choose the coral ending at first for the reason that you turn the whole galaxy into a bomb.
Also kinda fucked up to think about how we use sentient consciousnesses as fuel but it probably doesn't hurt the coral.
@@kindahungry8505Walter I didnt feel as bad though. He was still using you as a puppet either way
Ayre simps are everywhere
I enjoyed killing here. XDl @@TheHolyWarz
I love the similarities between Ultra Ayre's theme and Re-educated Walter's theme. Similar notes and choir throughout.
Both battles are of betrayal and hurt. They're battles you don't want to win, but must not lose. They both have an interstellar vibe to them, which is fitting because they both take place in the atmosphere. They also have heavy vibes of guilt and pain, but it's also got a vibe of determination to win no matter what. Either because you've gone to far to back out now, or that you felt you made the right decision is up to you. It still hurts either way.
At least at the end of Walter's fight, he's not disappointed and happy that you finally found a friend to fight for. Ayre just makes you feel like crap throughout the fight and when you beat her.
@@DarkReturns Yes. I gotta say I love Walter's fight more because of the weight behind the betrayl and his refusal to kill you.
The true boss is my favorite from how difficult he is but I also just straight up love his character.
Pretty sure he never got re-educated tho
@@DarkReturns You know what you are doing, you feeling like crap isn't her fault, but yours.
Edit: typo
@@spacewargamer4181 he states the corporations told him to terminate 621 before correcting himself and saying he's doing it for his friends
snail mentions walter being resistant to the last when we fight him additionally it doesn't seem walter is all their given that he continues to talk to you as if your alive even if he kills you and in the *spoilers*
true ending walter is within the ibis series mech and is completely lucid over the radio so it's not the mech that causing his slowed speech
I know its stated as the bad ending, but i love how its still sortof ambiguous enough depending on how many data logs you find and which missions you follow. Coral is also known to be immensely destructive and companies are ready to go through allout war over it. So maybe stopping it before the embers can ignite wasnt the worst idea....until you learn and experience more and more
Coral isn't inherently dangerous. The RRI were practically torturing coral when using it. Remember that Coral is literally alive and contains the consciousness of people who died during the Fires of Ibis.
Not to mention Coral Collapse is just a hypothetical and also a self fulfilling prophecy. Walter's scientist friend was the one who caused the Fires of Ibis in order to prevent hypothetical Coral Collapse.
It's stated as bad ending because some clueless youtubers and reviewers are dumb and said that, if you play the three endings you'll see that every single one of them has really bad consequences and actually none of them are good. They are just alternate endings
@@TheHolyWarzi mean you’re blatantly incorrect there but you can believe whatever you want
@@TheHolyWarz In "The Die is Cast" you aceclerate human evolution through Coral Symbiosis and in Liberator of Rubicon you prevent a planetary genocide. This is the bad ending.
@@technodude458 you can believe that a game ending is black and white as you want, saying I'm incorrect and not proving why says enough about you.
The chorus man, it broke something in me
Sorry Ayre, it was for the achievement
I know people felt bad for Ayre with Fires ending. But fight her didn’t bother me to much. It was Rusty.
It wasn’t sadness with Rusty but a sense of pride. All his talk about purpose and not giving up.
Granted I thought it was Ayre at first trying to stop us at the Karman Line. Rusty just came out of nowhere. By the time I got to Ayre I was already focused with finishing the final job.
Putting her down just felt like a task at that point from Rusty saying, “This resolve. What did you sacrifice?” Though I can see why people felt bad for Ayre. But Rusty hit the feels already just before.
Ayre’s fight felt…
melancholy.
Fighting Rusty was crossing the point of no return.
Fighting Ayre was just the consequence.
I had the exact same reaction, but exacerbated by the fact that Ayre was my least favorite fight in the game, and came after Rusty which was actually my favorite fight. Didn't have a great build for her so it felt tedious, and kinda killed the emotional part for me after 50 times of hearing the same lines :(
killing carla and walter makes you way more heartless imo
@@Kazuhira2249 no killing walter is more of a mercy killing because of his re-education whereas killing carla is quite heartless indeed but then again the fires of raven would consumed all humans consciousness on rubicon including carla...trapping them into coral flow just like the allmind planned, the only good ending is the liberator of rubicon ending where it leaves the rubiconian a chance to fight back the corpos.
It hurt me so much to be against her. Make her feel betrayed, alone, sad...
Fromsoftware did it again. Made me feel. I think she's the one I've connected the most on these games.
It's so good I could make good by her side in 2 of 3 endings.
Fighting against Walter, the music feels like a dirge. Something to be heard at a funeral, sad, and looking back at what was. The loss of a friend, a mentor, a guide. Someone who had come to mean so much, and in turn, who 621 had meant so much to. Ayre's feels like a lament for what could have been, had we just made another choice. It's so large feeling, like it's questioning, letting notes echo out into the universe - almost contemplative at times. But none of it matters, because now it can't happen. That shared dream is lost - along with everything else.
Listening to it now for like the 187th time, you can hear some notes that make this theme a slowed down, more subtle version of Rusted Pride.
Instead of an inspiring battle with your Buddy to bring down the colony ship or a prideful duel to the end with him, this version is like gazing upon a new life form you’ve spent the last few days with, she finally achieves her potential for defending the souls in the Coral.
This isn’t music for a boss fight, this is music for a mid to fast paced dance between two different species fighting for survival against time and eachother.
I want to say I held back when fighting Ayre, but she was just too fast and devastating with her attacks for me to give her that pity, and how she struck me was like watching an angel exact retribution for the sins of mankind.
Only games like these can make me feel something, and despite how harsh life is, there is beauty in it through both nature and the creations of man, this is one such creation.
A symphony of Soul and Poetic Passion.
I know I'm late to the party but can we talk about how Ayre the person who's been supporting us "Raven" being the wind underneath our wings to help us But then in her boss fight one of her strongest attacks is her lifting us up and leaving us helpless off the ground because we cant fast charge our energy while off the ground?
"Allmind thanks you for this data."
I ended up in NG+4 before I could bring myself to burn the coral, only finally doing it to reach the 3rd ending after much stubbornness on my part. I always felt horrible fighting Ayre, Rusty, Walter... Allmind, however, didn't bother me so much. They were just as stubborn as I was, but also just as purpose-oriented, so, when I finally proved I was greater, they stepped aside, just like I would have. I only wish they survived, and I wish I could have carried those ghost pilots with me into what came after.
god we better get DLC for AC6 bc man i want those parts from her AC
Same
sadly its not an AC, its an autonomous unit, plus its like 2.5x the size of a typical ac lol.
it's not an AC, it's an IBIS weapon
it's not an AC, it's an IBIS weapon
@@maohemu262 Give it to the brightest minds and they can fill in the blanks to work with AC units in no time.
"Raven, I will stop you... You will never burn Rubicon!"
"Rusty couldn't stop me, and I'm not doing this because I want to burn Rubicon. But if burning a world is the price of protecting the rest of the galaxy, then so be it..."
For context, I didn't enjoy picking Fires of Raven on my run as the first choice, but going through things in my head it made the most sense. By my own emotional drive, I wanted to pick Liberator, but my logic said Fires instead. Not because of malice or anything, but because Coral in of itself is highly volatile already (Look at what wasn't even a spark to the Fires of Ibis, did to that watchpoint), the saying 'Where there's Coral, there's blood', the fact that only the people of Rubicon seem capable of coexisting with it, and that the corporations would just come back with more firepower to try and exploit the Coral again. It's the combination of the dangers that Coral has, ones outside of its own control, and just the part of human nature we haven't yet overcome during AC6's events, that made me decide this.
This was never personal, Ayre, but for the sake of keeping humanity from destroying itself, and protecting this galaxy, I did what I had to...
this is pretty much why the "true" ending exists
human existence in the universe of AC6 doesn't really seem all that great (cough fromsoft world of human stagnation) and coral symbiosis offers an opportunity to escape the status quo into a potentially better outcome
some aren't willing to cast the die since the unknown is scary, but you could make that choice
@@the_disc32 That ending was honestly the one I don't like out of the three. The cost is extremely high, you forcefully evolve all of humanity against it's own will (Something that really bothers me since I hold one's free will highly), and for all we know, we probably killed a lot of humans in the process. Given how coral augmentation already had high failure rates.
So yeah, I won't deny the unknown is scary, but I also refuse to ignore one's will to choose to remain human just because this alternative is 'better' for them.
@@Furydragonstormer Destroying the coral and wiping out the consciousness of all those it had swept up until that point is also acting against others' will; just because their consciousness exists within the coral doesn't mean their will doesn't count as their own. I never got the impression that humanity knew what coral was; they just saw it as a force of destruction that consumed everything in its path; it wasn't as if they wanted to destroy it because they didn't want to be assimilated into it, they wanted to destroy it because they simply thought it was dangerous; or they wanted to control it because they saw it as useful. Ayer is the only character in the story who understands what coral is, because she is literally a part of it-- the scientists seem to believe that the voices heard by mercs after augmentation or coral exposure were a result of coral-induced insanity rather than communication with consciousness within the coral.
@@Furydragonstormer it’s stated that augmentation with coral is extremely dangerous and lethal. Plenty of people died in the pursuit and even the scientists of the institute were horrified at the results of the people who lived and said that any one who would honestly purse it would be inhumane. Long and short of it is: it’s not pretty
Man created machine
but the machine outstrips what man can do.
the machine can only do what it is programmed to do
the will of man overrides all
This music will always get me, this was the first ending I got and the hardest boss fight for me, it legitimately took me a week to beat It
What weapons did you end up beating it with? I’ve been trying for about a week.
bro... the coral, must burn, im sorry
but... but her siblings 😭
@@MrRedpearl Sorry, but I will choose humanity over a voice in my head, even if she is really nice to me
@@Furydragonstormer They were all once human.
@@MrRedpearl Eh, that's more a theory. There's logic to support it, but at the end of the day we don't actually know if that is true
Gonna be real, the only acceptable ending iS ABANDON THE WEAKNESS OF FLESH AND BE ONE WITH THE BLESSED MACHINE
*We could’ve walked together*
Walter didn't raise a simp
I love that this song feels melancholy and heroic at the same time, like in this ending Ayre is the hero and Raven is the villain.
to play devils advocate, for me at least, I felt worse killing Carla and Chatty, and then to top it off you have to kill Walter? The man who brought you from nothing, gave you the ground to stand on your own and let you, in the end, make your own decisions on how you want to proceed. The liberator ending really broke my heart. The fires of raven ending was really, again in my opinion, the only logical choice. Considering it was kill everyone who ever looked out for you, trusted you, cared for you and fought/risked their lives for you. Or kill a species of which’s we know little about, and has the potential to destroy the entire universe(Ayre save us once out of what I think was curiosity, when she woke us up after the coral explosion, after that she really only used us to further her own agenda and save her family, which if you think about it is what we do in the Fires ending) I love Ayre and god killing rusty is definitely hard but in the end I do agree with Walter and Carla that the fight over coral will never end and eventually all the Corps would return just reigniting the war.
I'm not crying, you're crying.
This was my first ending. I wish that things didn't have to end like they did, but there was no other option. The company's greed would undoubtedly mean the coral would be set ablaze again, I just close to light the match before it was uncontrollable. The company's fight is over, the planet is left alone, and people stop fighting over something so senseless. I just wish Ayre wasn't in my way.
the one who got away...
ya'kno it's funny that allmind and Ayre use the same/similar Ibis with contrasting colors at the end of their fight. Two Ai with vastly different goals and mindsets. One is fighting to defend Rubicon, the other to control the coral release and possibly the galaxy. A fun parallel
When you kill your ride or die :(
Gotta say I love all the people trying to say this is the good end. This is the cowards end. You chose to kill a being and commit genocide because that being might do something bad.
The true ending is the only good one because rusty is still alive
@@danielj7725 I am almost 80% sure that you fight a copy of his there. So that implies that you-know-who got his ass offscreen.
@@enzogomez5686 let me cope
@AlanxseI don't get it?
@@danielj7725 listen disk 3 ost.
He is dead.
What's even more heart-crushing, is that in her last breath, she STILL doesn't give up hope on us, despite declaring she'll hold nothing back and tries to defeat Raven. She truly just wants us to believe her with no strings attached.
The “no ayre, we are getting a divorce” send off
I always wondered what how Trans-Am feels from an enemy's perspective. It's terrifying.
I think it fair to say the only final boss that deserved to die that I don’t feel guilty about was Allmind.
So where did she get her Armored Core again?
Its an IBIS series AC, and if you pay attention throughout the game, she has a surprising amount of control and acessability into technology and their systems.
It was always on the satellite cannon, she and her family take control of the orbital network in this ending to stop you. As for how, its an IBIS series, like the one in Institute City. Coral is its control system, and it is programmed to protect itself.
Edit: In the ALLMIND ending, she actually finds and tests her experimental drone AC with you in the arena.
I think it's likely that Allmind is the one who supplies her with the mech, since it's really similar to the one in her ending boss and every other pilot she could have used is either dead or believed to be dead in the case of Rusty.
I think she is basically pushing an IBIS unit past its limit by filling it with her coral presence
its an IBIS series unit so itsl ikely a modified C-Weapon
Arye has been show to to this point to be able to comandeer Coral Tech that isnt actively resisting her contact asl ong as there is no interference to her signal.
this is shown later on in the ALLMIND ending where Iguazu starts interfering with Her's and ALLMIND's Signal ot silence the voices he is hearing and Arye is forced ot retreat because she could not reliably control her unit anymore.
Bro, why cant we THESE ac parts?? cooler than walters imo.
because " technically" this is not an AC unit, its a C-weapon
is it really a bad ending if you wanted this?
Bad ending my ass. The Coral must burn.
based
all 3 endings are grey
the ayre one you literally fuck up a planet and destroy a full blown race, and kill rusty but you save humanity and the galaxy by proxy
the walter one you kill your handler that cares about you as a mentor and to some extent a friend, but his brainwashed brain didn't help and even then the war will continue (because its inevitable), but you saved Rubicon, rusty helped you as much as he could and the coral is alive
and the allmind one is confusing, you helped and f humanity and the galaxy is f to because coral and the propensity to go nuclear and many other factors idk
It feels wrong to kill Ayre, but what am i supposed to do? Let the coral continue to grow and get out of control? An explosion of that size would destroy everything. I dont blame her for going for the kill, that was my plan too. Even when you kill her she reaches out for you and wishes things could be different.
this is not the theme that plays during the boss fight
you got the wrong theme bro this is echoes of coral not cries of coral
Tbh I thought I was doing the right thing by destroying the coral until new game +2 with all mind
#AKIMBOMINIGUNSGANG
I wouldn't fight daddy walter and wife Ayre 😭😭😭😭
We fite allmind
If you hear this boss theme at the end of your run...you are a terrible person.
=P
Isn't this the Fires of Raven ending theme? It's not the theme used in Ayre's fight.
FoR is Ayre
LoR is Walter
Yeah, this is Echoes of Coral in the OST. Ayre's theme is Cries of Coral. Thus uploader isn't the only one to have made that mistake.
Bad ending? This is the best ending/outcome. The third ending is a fresh new hell, the second one is arguably not as bad, but you do end up killing Walter and Carla in those so it hits hard.
"This is the best ending/outco e" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
No
@@spacewargamer4181 bruh it is. Coral is something that grows exponentially and if you make it explode or catch fire, its enough power to burn down an entire planet/ couple of them. The biggest explosions in the game are all coral.
Imagine a missile hitting a huge cloud of it on space. There go 4 planets. And also grows exponentially and a wee bit of it can power those bonewheels on institute city for like 50 years. There will be more growth of it than we could spend. Not like we would be allowed to, since coral has consciousness and doesnt want to be used as fuek, and can control mechs.
It would just grow uncontrollably, impossible to kill since to burn it you would also explode your entire galaxy by that point, while it only needing one single cell of it to survive.
fr its the best one
You kills millions of people human and coral alike in this ending
You literally kill everything on Rubicon and genocide an entire species in this ending. No, it's not the best.
Bad Ending: you put down the waifu who cared for you and wanted to see you free, buringing the souls of her people
Good Ending: betray the madmen who wanted to burn innocent people, you become a freedom fighter for oppressed people who can finally reclaim their homeland
True Ending: Become one with the machines, you have ascended, no longer human, you and your machinekind exist to wage war to man. Also you get your wife.
considering Ravens and AC pilots, have spent more time inside their AC than outside, at least in older games, the third ending of AC6 is not exactly much different from the daily routine of old, its just that now you probably dont have to worry about your fleshy bits no more.
The Zodiacs from Armored Core V and the Reaper Squad from Verdict Day were all also similar cases, but they turned themselves into "Formula Brains" which is a fancy way of saying they were transplanted into becoming the computer of their own ACs.
another character from AC4A, CUBE is supposedly also entombed into his AC, his machine being so damn fast and compact the engineers and himself opted to remove the "pilot" and cockpit out of the design, just to reduce its weight and size further more.
there's also the whole Human+ situation on even older AC games, people being basically turned into more machine then men. but it was wess of a willing transformation, and more of a way to have your life be excused by the people you owed to, be turned into an experiment cross of man-machine
the general sentiment across AC games and Ravens and their relationships with their own machines, in the vast majority, is that, outside their AC, they're nobody, their only home, the place that brings them joy and fun, is their AC and the battlefield, to do as they please, and die however they want, so long it was a true fight.
that is who we Ravens are, not mere men of flesh.
@@GERAT023 The Ravens would fit well into the Adeptus Mechanicus. Wow.
Thanks for the lore context, I sadly never had chance to play the older AC games.
I hope we could get something of an HD collection for modern consoles and PC.
Walter wasn't a madman tho, I would not choose to side with him, but he had a point.
And Carla...I just don't like her.
this is the only good ending
It's a FromSoft game - there are no 'good' endings...
killing this monster is the best ending
key ._.
Objectively yes, unfortunately. #621 may be a 3rd & 4th degree burn victim mummified in aseptic nylon, but apparently he still gets Neuron Activation from a pleading girl voice... and this dooms everyone.
You're a fool
rip bozo you will not be missed
Ayre is an absolute clown 😂
Where on gods green earth was this AC during the allmind fight??? ffs this would've been immensely useful
At this point, Ayre wouldn't have knows this suit existed, and instead only got so far as to figure out about the Ephemera suit's existence for this ending.
If she had more time to look into the RRI before this fight, she would've found it, but it was a very hasty, "I need to help Raven" that led to her finding the Ephemera. It was the first thing she found, and it was good enough.
In Fires, she has a very very long time to look for any possible way to stop you, thus giving her time to learn about this last IBIS-Series suit she uses there.
Fun fact, that AC was missing because allmind was using it. If you look at the AC's side by side, they have immense similarities. Doesn't sound that out of pocket that allmind might've reworked the AC.
@@morbidcuriosityTM they're similar, but Allmind doesn't reuse AC parts, she makes copies with incremental upgrades. Her AC is based on this Ibis series, but it's manufactured by Allmind, rather than being the one made by RRI.
the Unit Ayre uses in this fight is the same one Allmind uses in its ending, just that ayre is using its form as a C-Weapon while All mind uses a version that it modified to fit the Mind Alpha's integration Data and Iguazu's Conbat Style
Personally i believe almind gives this to her as a last ditch effort to stop us, that's why it looks so close to allmind's AC and why it doesn't show up when we help and subsequently fight all mind
