The People of Armored Core

[Lord_Leperman]

Can't help it, it's a time of peace. You sound like a veteran warmonger wishing for more trouble lol I can imaginge veteran soldiers thinks this way. Like "man, I was owning back in WWI! But WWII was just plain imba.. All the weapon stats are all broken! I mean c'mon..A fucking Nuke?! Seriously ?!" -____-

And you sound like the kid who hasn't fought in the war "Aww man, I can't understand these old farts and their sexy scars". Maybe I should explain a few things

Deemer is right. Friendships born upon real life contact (In this case, Armored Core's physical tournaments) tend to last much much longer. Just look at communities built around it, people from ACG and RH for example (RH most notably, since the community have been that close knit since the days of Core Dump back in the late 1990's), if you look at their forums they are still pretty active because their friendships were forged through physical contact that it withstood geographical divisions (Most were in California, but the rest are spread throughout the US) and time (almost 14 years now).

It's really interesting, you'll see some members grow, some get married, others become successful, while others, well, not so good things happened. However you'll see that they really stick to each other, and the same goes for the core group of RR, at least the ones who meet up regularly and all. We've all grown up and drifted apart, but we still talk of the good old times when people were young and, so it is no surprise that people miss each other and the times when they would meet often.

Come to think about it, I'd say RR is pretty damn lucky that most of its members live in Metro Manila, which is fairly accessible for each other. Just close enough for fairly regular meet ups even not involving AC. Like burger raids and all.

If ever, refer to Nix's article for more of what I'm talking about. It's a really good read and worth your time.
