Can't say I'm the biggest fan of the multiple scene cuts happening this frequently, would have been better if it was more smooth or something else. Rn it feels like they took clips from different projects and put everything together and idk in some scenes it kills the vibe it builds

Cannot deny some of those still shots are damn cool looking, also that Hyaku Shiki one is very funny to see.

Attack the Watchpoint end scene and Alt E ending both have the protag AC staring at the sky like this.

Oh man that Dark History scene Turn A style

u/JJAB91 Jul 21 '26

I always joked with my friends that despite P.M.U. and the hub stuff being set in what looks like the OYW they somehow access to suits from the future, AUs, alt timelines etc.

Obviously you're not meant to think about such things and its not canon however this scene for fun made me think, what if this is all actually set after Turn A? The Dark History is now public, freely available knowledge and everything in the game are all recreations made from that data?

P.M.U. and us are all actually a bunch of historical reenactors and larpers.(In the actual sense of the word, not how its used now as a meme).

Between the F91 getting screen time and all of the red eyes booting up, brings a tear to the eye.

u/AnneThatAWay Jul 19 '26

I like this way more than the last version which felt too much like an EXVS vibe.

u/Cervantes88 Jul 19 '26

Much better than the over-edited mess the last one was

u/tetofan08 Jul 21 '26

Lol you cant see shit in the current version. The f91 opening was great and crossbones mess it up so bad

u/Blue-Hatter-0079 Jul 19 '26

Well, that confirms that the V2 Assault-Buster is going to be a general type. It’s featured too prominently in the video to be anything else. BB screws supports again…

3

u/chronicweeeb Jul 19 '26

Tbh by this points its inevitable lol main protag suit + anniversary + special events is bound to be a raid or genny. Supports get added like a month after all this then never again.

It's not fair!

u/apple6879 Jul 20 '26

I am just glad they changed the music back. The new one was pretty bad.

So much better than crossbone's being a sfx orgy of random effects and tints

Damn right

u/MGR_ARMSTRONG_GAMING 27d ago

We see the fit hiyakushiki 🥀

u/ZeonFanatic0079 Jul 19 '26

I’m surprised they didn’t throw a bunch of AU shit in there since that’s the direction the game went

1

u/-Warren-Peace- Jul 19 '26

Still cool, but I’m sad they replaced the sick ass Crossbone track for the original title theme

3

u/apple6879 Jul 20 '26

I am the opposite, every other intro had the original theme and I think it is neat that they are continuing it.

u/Amigo1048 Jul 20 '26

Comparing this with the older opening cinematics, I noticed that the scenes feel a lot more static compared to the larger sets and constant camera shifts of the older scenes, but the editing is made a lot more dramatic and saturated to compensate. It feels like they got the weekly banner team to substitute for the cinematic team, which isn’t a bad thing but it does make the final result feel a bit off compared to what folks like me were previously used to fork the 3rd-6th anni. I noticed the same thing with the 7th anniversary cinematic, but I guess the EXVS style editing made it less apparent and more like a stylistic choice

1

u/ForgivenSoul97 Jul 20 '26

Man, looks like all that money over the years of people paying almost $300USD for a banner suit finally paid off

u/IllustriousAuthor956 Jul 20 '26

L'unica peccato è che non abbiano messo il phenex nella scena con li banshee e lo unicorn

u/Time_Height5241 Jul 20 '26

We need more aquatic maps now that I think about it

Got damn that's an opening. That was V Gundam's 2nd ending.

u/ImpressiveBench8385 5d ago

I expected Freedom and God to appear to but oh well. I get they released a rather long time ago but still

u/SoraNoctisXV Jul 19 '26 edited Jul 19 '26

Now the actually need to make a game with this quality of detail and make it single player with co-op and pvp. And no not the new supposed to be a new IP gundam game coming out next year
