Across a 15-20 hour first playthrough, players are hit with a barrage of names in Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubin, including Raven, Freelancer, Tourist, “dog,” G13, and “mutt” – none of which ever reveal the protagonist’s true identity. All the while, the character never once utters a word of retort, only seeking recompense and vindication in elaborately conceived battles spread across missions of various import and length. But lest players assume the game operates in tried-and-true and, frankly, tired sci-fi tropes, it's the approach to telling its moth-eaten story – in an unorthodox way – that deserves special recognition in an art form that often talks down to players.
