One interesting thing I noticed about the PCA is that they fully rely on their System, and never really give their own intuitions a chance. It’s interesting because this almost always means they fail. If Raven is blowing up their entire fleet the command is like “ya bro hold on a minute gotta ask ChatGPT if I can fight back”
except for that one guy when the tunnel blows up, she asks "what is the system's verdict??" "Proceed as planned" *looks ate coral explosions everywhere "How exactly??" *proceeds to fly away
Some of the PCA dialogue is interesting towards the player. Since it's not actually meant for you but the Prior owner of the title "Raven" and the PCA thinks you are that Raven.
Something I never really thought about before is how faceless all of the PCA members you fight are. For any other faction, these guys would have their own callsigns, lore, identities, etc. However, by taking orders from an AI, they've accepted a fate to be simple parts of a greater machine. No will, no pride, no glory. Just a tool to be used until you're broken. God I love this game.
“Strange bedfellows.” “Just means the corps can’t afford to choose.” This is the sorta dialogue that makes me love the PCA. They’re like space cops, and they’re led by an A.I somewhere? I love it, I want more of the PCA.
Really, really glad someone is showcasing all of this unique dialogue. It's amazing how many different ways there are to experience these moments. BTW Grey, we're working on a mindmap document to compile all of the unique dialogue in the game. Let me know if you'd like to be involved :)
Grey deserves the recognition for all these wonderful videos, this is very cool to see! PS edit: It would be great to see you both work together, and I am looking forward to a lore video soon Vaati, the narrative of AC6 really has a surprising amount of thematic and character substance on offer!
The strange part about the PCA is just how much more formidable they are than the corporate forces. They have better gear, discipline, tactics and strategies all around. Even the rank and file can threaten you with a good hit if you're not treating them with the same respect you would with an AC. The only thing holding the PCA back is their reliance on an AI to direct them. A shame really, I liked their presence as an antagonistic force.
My headcanon is that they’re highly bureaucratic and burdened by expectations from people unfamiliar with the situation. I think the System is probably set up as a cost cutting measure for what they thought was a long-term job of guarding a dead planet - instead the Coral regrows and the government’s only response is to throw the suppression fleet at it without actually replacing the leadership
"Hmmmm... Guess your System didn't send you guys the full footage of me completely soloing your fleet with minimum effort. You guys still want to try me? I welcome it, of course, but be ready to face the result."
Thank you for doing this, I've been replying the game in a dozen different ways just trying to find something I may have missed. This saves me from repeating certain fights till I hate them and I really don't want to hate any part of this game.
I'd love it if they'd patch in co-op (like ACFA had). Or even if they make an ACVI-2 if they include it there. Love these videos Grey, you're making some awesome stuff here.
I’m still addicted to this game so thank you for giving me more content, you got vaatividya commenting too. Nice job man. Anyone knows if anything happens If you shoot the ice worm with the stun needle in this mission?
Thanks, I haven't really tried(it moves so fast and I didn't see anything in my text datamine), but you'd still need RaD's railgun to even damage it, unfortunately.
@@GreyCaliberah ok i was just always curious if there was some new dialogue if you manage to hit it, it is prob annoying to land the hit in this mission.
No, the PCA struck a bad deal with Geico that's pretty extortionate. They say "insurance" because it hardly covers anything, but since they don't need to worry about losing their Mechs, they won't have to wrangle with Geico liaisons.
He’s not in the battle any more, so I assume he has no dialogue because he’s not there to even see the damn thing. He only hears about it in the after-action debrief
They trust their system to be always right. But maybe the truth is that nature and strong human spirit cannot be fully anticipated even by a sophisticated artificial intelligence system..

I have no idea why but "It's time to pay the piper" is probably the most memorable line in the game for me.
It just screams professionalism.
Two ACs just wiped out an installation each.
"Oh well just another day at the office"

For me it's "Code 15. Target for termination sighted." Captain and his HC is Legendary.

It's the Lore Man
That sounds great! I'd love to help out with that, I've actually been using a mindmap sheet to help track most of this dialogue.

makes it even more apparent why Arquebus rockets up to be the dominant force after getting their hands on the PCA's tech
Thanks for all your efforts documenting the dialogue in this game. You're a champ!
HC lieutenant: Just means the corps can't afford to choose
Me on NG+5: Oh you wish they had chosen someone else
"Hmmmm... Guess your System didn't send you guys the full footage of me completely soloing your fleet with minimum effort. You guys still want to try me? I welcome it, of course, but be ready to face the result."
Im so glad my spam reconvinced you to add Chatty back into the outro. You make my day
Is that Rusty calling us "Raven" in the cut dialogue? Weird to hear, very cool thank you as always.

I know how that feels. For me, its some levels like Coral Exploration that I do not want to repeat, but I need to for some dialogue.
Another line I found. If you keep shooting the worm Walter will told you "Stop 621 you can't damage it" something along that
Bedfellows he said 😂
1:41 that gave me anime vibes.

this mission goes so hard
The fact the pca is that scared of us that it calls in a c weapon is wild
You’re doing the lords work with these
on Ice Worm Mission when you stuck with the Misson long enough everybody will cheer for you
So…did the PCA unleash the Ice Worm? Was that the “insurance”?
No, the PCA struck a bad deal with Geico that's pretty extortionate. They say "insurance" because it hardly covers anything, but since they don't need to worry about losing their Mechs, they won't have to wrangle with Geico liaisons.
What if Rusty disengaged before the Ice Worm arrives? What will he say about the Ice Worm, since he's not at the battle space anymore?
He’s not in the battle any more, so I assume he has no dialogue because he’s not there to even see the damn thing. He only hears about it in the after-action debrief
Can confirm Rusty has no dialogue about the Ice Worm if he withdraws before you're done with the PCA Officers
1:22 surviving with literally 1 hp. Wow you got real lucky there
Terminal armor I think
Hey, great video! I was wondering if you'll do a video on ayre's fight
Currently in queue, theres some stuff I'm trying to trigger, but it might be cut or playthrough related, so it's on the back burner.
@@GreyCaliber sounds fine, no pressure, keep up the good work :D
what happent if rusty retreat before ice worm showup ?
He probably just doesn't say his lines.
Yeah, it just cuts out his lines for that part.
Damn can we get a AC CODE PLEASE!!!
They trust their system to be always right. But maybe the truth is that nature and strong human spirit cannot be fully anticipated even by a sophisticated artificial intelligence system..
How did you isolate the hidden dialogue? Will you do a tutorial?
PCA did nothing wrong 😢
