I'm unironically very glad we're getting another melodramatic super unrealistic Ace Combat game. Despite being a massive plane nerd I much prefer Ace Combat to something like DCS. First person cutscenes are interesting, I just hope that they don't screw it up like they did with Assault Horizon.

Can we stop having a war on the continent of Usea for 5 minutes?!

AC7 was great

The game that chickened out of doing a full blown Osea bad plotline (in universe, Osea is the stand in for the USA), and completely dropped it halfway through the game to do a "ehhh, it was Belka's fault yet again" is good. Okay.

I'm not really going into Ace Combat expecting anything out of the story. Like I won't complain if it's good but I'm not gonna be that disappointed if it's mid like I would be for an RPG. The gameplay was great and that's what I'm there for.
