--> '''Erich:''' Good thing Rena's flying a Flanker, eh? \\
'''Fiona:''' Cut the chatter.

* ArcFatigue: The games since ''Electrosphere'' have suffered from the Myth Stall variation. The game set up an interesting story involving [[CorporateWarfare barely-disguised war]] between MegaCorp[=s=] and conspiracies surrounding them, the peacekeeping organization trying to keep them off each other, and another organization that turns out to be more than it seems. Later games had the implicit promise of exploring how Strangereal got to that point... a promise that was all but forgotten after just one game, when ''The Unsung War'' introduced the Belkan War and its aftermath and promptly had absolutely ''everything'' that has happened in the series since, even retroactively through remakes, have something to do with Belka's [[SoreLoser response to their loss]].
