It is not fairly on the degree of “can Doom run on this potato”, however placing GTA: San Andreas protagonist CJ in video games is its personal type of meme. You may play Darkish Souls as CJ, you possibly can watch CJ and Huge Smoke duel it out in Sekiro, and modders even managed to put CJ in The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild.
FromSoftware’s Armored Core 6: The Fires of Rubicon has solely been out since yesterday, and in that point modders Dropoff and TKGP had only one factor in thoughts: mecha-CJ. The mod sadly would not but seem on NexusMods or different websites, which can be simply as properly. This factor is deeply, deeply cursed (video beneath). I believed seeing CJ as a cat in Stray was dangerous however as a mech it is in some way even worse, with our younger hero’s proportions stretched-out and twisted right into a weapon that may surpass Steel Gear.
Co-creator Dropoff seems to be one thing of a CJ specialist, having been concerned within the above Sekiro CJ mod, and in addition appears to get pleasure from placing Shrek in issues. Everybody wants a pastime, and I suppose I am the one writing about it so eh. I additionally found whereas looking for this which you could now play as CJ in Road Fighter 6, which might at the very least be a extra healthful factor to broadcast to the world than a Chun Li nude mod.
As for Armored Core 6 itself, Bandai Namco is bullish about its prospects and doubtless with good motive. PCG’s resident mech professional Wes Fenlon awarded the sport a glowing 87%, saying that “it could have taken FromSoftware a decade to return to its love of mechs, nevertheless it was well worth the wait: Armored Core 6 is a “we’re again on our bullshit” slam dunk.
