Armored Core 6; spoilers 

Thinking about how the third ending of the game is all set into motion because one particular guy is super jealous and you piss him off SO much, he sacrifices himself to an unshackled AI and continues to hound you, even after his physical body's death

"What makes you so special?!" are his last words. Twice. Both his physical body and unshackled AI form say it as they go silent.

@Koi I need to confirm, but I have a feeling his personality became a lot more whiny as translated from the original Japanese.

I can see what they were trying to do with it (set up an awesome confrontation with a persistent rival over the terms of who gets to transcend and why), but it fell flat for me compared to how Ayre or Walter confront you over their own convictions in the other two routes.

@Koi Though, I think part of that is I read Iguazu as a jealous reply guy.

His constant goading and complaining about "that freak" and jealousy of 621, to the point *it became his identity inside of AllMind*, only to get shut down yet again in a final confrontation echoing his first death, felt less powerful to me than Ayre standing in for all of humanity and Coral and proceeding to destroy me. But it is most definitely A Thing and framed the fight well.

re: Armored Core 6; spoilers 

@Koi But I have a feeling that in the original Japanese, the hot blooded youth that constantly aspired to surpass 621 and be his own free mercenary lands a lot better as a character.

In a series where they're trying to constantly reinforce fighting for what you believe in, that works very well as a conclusion to the complete game.
