I love it.
I was tempted to leave my first impression as just that, but we'll expand on it just a little bit.
I was a bit worried going into this game, as I've mentioned before, chasing that high from ACE COMBAT X: Skies of Deception and being pretty let down by that last batch of games in the series. But I'm, I think, about halfway through my first campaign playthrough (on Easy because I was worried the game was going to try to be violent with me; looking at you ACE COMBAT: Assault Horizon) and apart from being afraid of some missions on higher difficulties and even what I would need to do to get that S rank, I'm having a blast. I love the gameplay so far, I love the music. I'll often sit and rewatch the mission I just played with the radio turned off and toggling the slow motion to make the videos all dramatic. For instance:
and
And then there are plenty of stills too!
So yeah. I just wanted to say that if you're on the fence like I was prior to the Steam Winter Sale, the game is great, and I'd be surprised (and deeply saddened) if the next 15 missions go downhill really fast.
P.S. And it plays great on the Steam Deck.
