The amount of times I had to hear "Target Verified. Commencing Hostilities."
Oof, that was one hard ass boss fight, but so rewarding. It's actually kind of impressive how it feels like a Souls-style boss, much more simplified of course, but cool considering it's a PS game. If you think Dark Souls 3 was the first time Fromsoft pulled a Sister Frieda... you'd be wrong. Fuck.
Rating this one higher since it felt more consistent in terms of level design, and the dynamic of switching between contracts and the arena just made the game feel a lot fresher. It's also worth pointing out that unlike AC1, I felt the need to switch up my build a lot more in this, which for me is a positive because it felt weird having so many build posibilities but no excuse to actually change it up. And of course, it's great to get revenge on Nine-Ball after AC1's final mission.
Btw, if you can't transfer your AC1 save to MoA, you can still 100% beat the game without it. Don't listen to people saying it's impossible without Human Plus or whatever. And tip: Buy the Moonlight!
★★★ – Good ✅
