This. Wonder how that not-Armored Core game did after they failed to get the license. Lack of news and the suspicious act of marketing it as an Armored Core game before getting permission probably doomed it I'm guessing? Seemed pretty fun too.

Terra Mystica turned out to be very good.
Formula D turned out to be worse than I thought.

Asymmetrical area control worker placement set in the Mojave Wasteland.
Giga Robo might scratch one of those itches, even if the art is pretty mediocre even by weeb standards.
