And people said Momiji wouldn't be a good character...

You know I have a funny idea.

What if Team NINJA added characters in but only as a costume. Like you could play as Momiji but she'd play like Kasumi and could be selected as one of Kasumi's costumes.

That would qualify as "trolling" by the dev toward the players. Just like Zero having a Mega Man X costume in UMvC3 ... with Capcom KNOWING people want the ACTUAL Mega Man X in the game!

Hayabusa style =/= mugen tenshin style.

Though I must say, the guy who made this seems to have a much better grasp of how a cliffhanger is supposed to visually start.

Also it's the same guy who did this.

Whoever said she wouldn't be a good character? Not making the cut in DOA5 and being a good character are two different things.

I don't think thats the same thing, because people ALWAYS want Megaman, and Capcom knows they ALWAYS do. Its trolling because everyone was begging for him starting years before MvC3 came out, and then they give us fucking bullshit. Momiji or whoever isn't a staple character of the company. It'd be more like if they made Dead or Alive 5 and didn't add Ayane. Instead Ayane was a Kasumi costume. She's not the main character, but she sure as fuck is a staple of the series that everyone knows and loves.

Indeed.

And for the raft they could add another six feet or so beyond the fence so it makes more sense when you break through it and start rolling.

Youre right, which is pretty odd to say the least... Hopefully this can be fixed by TN, so it wont be any off guard "tumble-weeding" while trying to catch the ledge, and having an surprising fall.

All I see is yet another ninja just skinned/modeled to look like Momiji. Nothing about the moves shown says anything about her being who she is, you can just swap her in with Ayane or Kasumi and you wouldn't really notice anything mechanically. Now give her her glaive, then things would be different, but she also wouldn't fit in DOA.

Yeah, didn't see Momiji. Thought it was a skin for Kasumi.

He tried to be sarcastic, but I ignored it.
You missed the point then. What we're saying is that aside from the skin, it doesn't really represent "Momiji" as a character.

Look at it this way, some of the best designed characters are those that you can identify by their moves. You see a hadouken you think Ryu; a dragon punch, you think Ken; Berserker Barrage, Wolverine; Izuna Drop, Hayabusa (or Guy it it's in 2D); lazer eyes, Devil Jin. Simply reskinning a character doesn't really work.
