  1. Actually, the hover legs did show up in 4th Gen. It's just that the meta of 4th Gen involves Lightweights or Middleweights with bipeds or reverse-joints that hovers rarely got any attention beyond a niche audience.

    Haven't played 5th Gen, though, so I'm not sure if they showed up in V or VD or if they were removed to prevent redundancies with tank legs.

    As for the theory of a radical rebel movement making a crazy plan to strike at the corporations, it does have its merits. Not just using AC2 or AA as an example, but most AC games always have a "Corporate VS Rebel Movement" plotline throughout their missions with the most prominent instigators of this being Last Raven (With how there was the Alliance and Vertex) and For Answer (The League VS ORCA). So, a similar plotline happening in ACVI is not out of the realm of possibility.

  2. Are u also gonna speculate on the new trailer coming in a few hours? 😭😭😭please give us gameplay today fromsoft
    Another thing to note though is the ac stating “are you ready to climb the wall”, saying “it seems fate has brought us here” in the Japanese translation. We also see a huge wall multiple times in the trailer and leaked images, meaning he means literally climbing a wall.
    My theory is that behind the wall is where the corporation which has a monopoly over coral is storing it, and it is also where the fires of ibis originated.

    I also think that the fires of ibis was not an accident. It was done intentionally(maybe by an AI?). Fromsoft said that we would be uncovering the secrets of rubicon, so I can only imagine one of the major reveals will be about the truth of what happened.

  6. This video was published 2 hours before the new gameplay content release, so some of the ideas may be incompatible with what we now know. Let me know in the comments how the new gameplay confirms or refutes what you've seen here!

  13. I hadn't even even considered that the big industrail bosses are pre calamity relics 'gone haywire' fits in nicely with my bit of speculation on what role the coral itself might play on the story.

    What if the Coral is not just alive, but sapient? What if these old machines aren't just haywire, but under direct control of the coral's own intelligence trying to defend itself? Coral is apparently being used to interface the pilot with their AC, so what happens if the coral in AC "wakes up?" That's where my joke in your last video's comemnts about having a mech battle with [The lovecraftian monster from Marathon who's name I dont want to copy and paste again] because I genuinely expect the Coral itself might be this dune style rebel faction, not human natives of the planet, but whatever the coral is trying to drive off the corporations with a machine rebellion (or just buy time until it can release another fires of iblis), and potentially there will be a plot point with ACs getting taken over as well. So in this very wild version of the story, you can either help the corporations subdue and retake total control over the coral, or side with the coral and help it break its shackles

  14. Judging by the RaD representative calling the Raven “Tourist” it seems that RaD is an indigenous force or company.
    Also they seem to have built all or part of the Nightfall AC, at the very least the 2C-2000 CRAWLER legs that Nightfall uses are built by RaD

  16. It occours to me that we have no reason to not consider if those two phrases "Feed the Fire." and "Let the last Cinders Burn." aren't said from different perspectives. The corporations want to Feed the Fire of their war industry with Coral. While the natives want to Let the Last Cinders Burn out so they can be left alone. That being said, the line about 'how far they can fly on borrowed wings' might be referring to the shuttle you focused on itself. That might well be the final line of an ending. (It would be rather cheeky, now wouldn't it?)

    Something must be keeping the corporations from deploying to Rubicon 3 en-mass, and maybe the threat of the locals causing another 'Fires of Ibis' event is that threat. Also that name sticks out, because I know of one IBIS within Armored Core and whooh nelly is that a loaded name. A name with Layers you might say.
