What if he was secretly a Fromsoft employee all along, and everything he said about the lore is canon?

Various things happened and now you're stuck in a bunker for the next year. You have a top of the line PC, but no internet connection. What one game would you most like to be installed on it?

So Ace Combat: Assault Horizon seems to have been an attempt at making a cinematic aerial combat game.

I'm very impressed by the cutscenes that all run in engine and bleed into and out of gameplay mostly seamlessly despite the breakneck speed of the jets. Graphically it's actually quite impressive and seems to have been using depth of field effects well ahead of the curve. Environments are loaded with objects down to street lamps and telephone booths. Character models are quite detailed even if the skin shading isn't modern by today's standards, and the pilots animating in their cockpits is a neat touch. In fact this game is chalk full of neat touches.
I can see what they were trying to do with the dogfight system. Flight sims all play the same at the core, and they were looking for a way to spice it up. They succeeded in making each kill a spectacle but they undermine it by using the kill cam too often and by scripting too many planes to ONLY DIE AT CERTAIN JUNCTURES regardless of how many missiles you plug up their asses. The steel carnage is fucking art in motion though. I would love to see an second attempt at a game like this but utilizing something like BeamNG's destruction system.
The game could do entirely without the door gunner sections and the helicopter combat isn't particularly great until Moscow when they finally force you to weave through the buildings for cover from AA radar. How they managed to build a worse AC-130 mission than Modern Warfare had is beyond me. You'd think a game of this genre would have the best one ever.
Music was forgettable and poorly implemented save for that very first song. You know the one.
The story was fucking retarded and not even remotely self-aware of how poorly executed it was.

Honestly, why is this game still so expensive?
Also, what are some third party digital marketplaces that aren't a scam?

Thank God for David Sirlin!

"Skeptics at these shows (and there were only like 2 or 3 at each) would say “isn’t there just nothing to this?” Then we offer to crush them really hard, either with me playing them or one of my staff. In all cases, we crush them easily, as in more than 10-0. You might think people get salty from that, but the skeptics were all very excited. It’s exactly what they wanted to see, that there is a level of play far above what they were aware of.

Our highest praise, in my opinion, came from such a person who, after getting crushed really badly, trained at our booth for hours and hours. Then he challenged me again, and I crushed him yet again (slightly less badly, he at least won a few rounds, but not games). Then he said the first time he faced me, he lost a lot of times because he was unaware of this move or that, of this property of a move, or something. But the second time, he said he had full knowledge of all that stuff, and “he was simply outplayed.” That’s exactly what he hoped for: that a higher level of play was possible, so there’s a skill to it."
