Today I learned that Rubicon is a river in Italy and not just one of the best drink brands to buy at a petrol station.
A grey robot wearing a backpack hoists a grey limb from the floor. Even the colour of the font they use is grey, not white (aside from the "FromSoftware" pop-up) rather than white. There's ash all over the gaff, with a grey sky, and the disintegrated remains of a grey building. Then at the Geoff Awards I saw "FromSoftware" flash up on the screen, having just watched a world succumb to some fiery apocalypse (it wouldn't be FromSoftware without fire and cinder, would it?). They only fire large gatling guns and rarely flinch, because they are unfeeling, unthinking slabs of metal.
And it's never interested me, either, as machines can't ragdoll down cliffs like the deer from Oblivion. Technically, I suppose, I know that the games feature big robots that fight each other, but that's it. I'll be the first to admit that I know nothing about the Armored Core series.
