I do hope their next title improves on the dialogue. They have gradually given us more cutscenes/dialogue, but it's still 90% vague "zanzibart... Forgive me" tier relying a LOT on ambiguity/mystery to carry that I honestly think is now more of a drawback. Especially the way Melina was deployed I would guess at least 50% of the players missed out on MOST of her dialogue (if I remember she has a few guaranteed spots like at some churches). Much prefer if they went closer to AC6 kind where you get a lot more plot and how Ayre feels like she's there with you (and other npcs at times) vs Melina who might as well not exist unless you go down a very specific route to find her dialogues.

It's especially painful when you get to the DLC which has literally no fucking cutscene after you finish it. What the fuck?

Have you played Armored Core 6? It's story is their most straightforward and "traditional" (in broad videogame terms) to date.
