This is a walk through for the entire game, focusing on combat with abridged cut-scenes, and features commentary throughout its run time.
Starter AC means to take the stock mech the game gives you, and take it to the end.

Played on the nightly build of PCSX2

Hard to believe this game is a launch title for the system.
I still don't like stock runs after doing this challenge. I respect it but getting by from doing the bare minimum still bugs me in places.

Tool of the trade was an OEM Dual-shock 2 I've had for 25 years now. Got an adapter for PC and its been a joy to use again.
