[QUOTE="Wofano Wotanto, post: 9610145, member: 7044704"] Worth noting that Aether Nexus is a cousin of Mecha Hack more than a sibling. There are major changes (almost universally improvements IMO) to the original hack of Black Hack in AN that alter gameplay quite a bit, and even with the Mission Manual for MH (which is nearly mandatory, it adds so much) there's just loads more customization options for AN. Not only are there more choices, there are more things to tweak and the straightjacket of level-based progression is gone, replaced by a fairly freeform point-buy system that means two pilot/frame combos that started out 100% identical are almost guaranteed to grow very differently over time. They're both good but in different ways, and if AN ever gets its own Mission Manual equivalent it's probably going to be amazing, with build versatility akin to Lancer while running on a lighter, faster engine.
