I hope Project Aces are taking notes
After AC7 was a fun but sort of disappointing game overall compared to its predecessors, I jumped back onto the PS2 games as the usual replay games for the arcade fix due to a variety of things they did better. Then comes Project Wingman from an extremely dedicated fan of the series who's been working on the PW project since 2015 or so and kicks down the door with his product and honestly, I can assuredly say I'm going to be playing this one a lot more than I'll ever replay 7. As the title of this review implies as well, I hope Project Aces are taking a few notes for whatever AC8 is. Pros: -Flight model has the right amount of weightiness to it so every aircraft feels distinct. -Gameplay in general feels on point with Ace Combat with some QoL additions like holding multiple SP weapons. -Music is ridiculously good for the budget and on par with the best of AC at times. -Banter between fellow pilots is absolutely on point with the right amount of cheese and seriousness needed to be convincing. -Conquest mode is very fun on a replay level if you like the core gameplay. -Final boss on a gameplay perspective is better than any Ace Combat final boss (bold words but I mean it). -Superplane that isn't DLC and severely nerfed for a crappy multiplayer barley anyone plays. Cons: -Story can suffer due to a lack of presentation of context and information at times. The lack of usual cutscenes were due to the small budget unfortunately. -Game sometimes have a few graphical effects that look weak or aren't covered up as well as other (though given some weather effects just outright look better than 7 at times, I'm willing to cut slack). $25 is an absolute steal for what's currently in here and the dev already has plans to add more free content with aircrafts not in the game initially (A-10, Su-47, Rafale, etc.). It'd be an absolute disservice to not support a project like this if you have any care for AC or arcade flight games.
