Y'all really just like shitting on NiC0 huh lmfao I like her over Marie Rose for sure. Acting like DOA isnt anime as fuck without her in it XD
ive already done my time bitching about marie rose and honoka, not my fault they decided to complete the triplets lol... also at least marie roses' moveset was somewhat memorable. nico is just gonna that chick who has lightning particle effects to make her look interesting where she would otherwise be not.

9/10

putting personal tastes aside, i think the cast is really diverse in terms of playstyle, designs and personalities. yes we have 3 younger girls but they all play completely different and have conflicting personalities. yal will complain about them before complaining about another male character that just grunts and looks down on everyone else.

my only real compaint is the lack of diversity with races/ethnicties. i want a black girl.

Here's what I would have been impressed by, new female dark skinned from India, not the "yoga" type of thing but like a swat team member or counterterrorist with a few Indian dance moves thrown in.

PROS
- All important characters in terms of story are back
- Diego is a nice addition to the cast, new hottest guy in the DOA series.
- Phase-4 is back and better than ever.


NEUTRAL
- Phase-4 and Nyotengu as DLC, and not on-disc characters, despite being important to the story. But I do get that they needed a selling point to the two pre-order options.
- The little kids (Marie and Honoka) are still in the game.
- ALPHA-152 being gone. I get it, which is why this is just a neutral, but I’m still sad to see one of my mains gone.

CONS
- Yet another little kid character in NiCO, I’m sick of it. Give us WOMEN.
- No Momiji or Rachel (as of right now).
- Lack of roster ethnicity diversity.



Overall I would rate the roster about 7/10.

nah i've always been part of the "DOA is an anime as fuck series" camp, but that puke teal is a very hard pass REGARDLESS of what it appears in

though honoka's derivative moveset (along with all the other instances of thievery in doa5) set the bar so low that i'd take not-silat with teleports as long as it doesn't look like another character's moveset

also i don't know why a couple younger characters would suddenly invalidate the 12+ characters (plus whatever's in xtreme) that aren't. seems they're finally touching on this "diversity" issue to me, regardless of your personal feelings about it.
(in fact, they expanded on it enough that aside from having similar faces, their movesets, personalities and models are completely different; unlike someone and her literal clones)

though i'll come back and bitch about it when they overtake the roster ratio. there shouldn't be too much of anything

9.9999999/10

All the main fighting styles besides a couple are back and the roster feels full so that is good.

Anyone here remember going from SC3 to SC4 or from BBCPEX to BBCF? I think BB is the only game to have not dropped characters in a while. If DOA6 did the same and brought back every DOA character from 5 then it would be a 10/10. A character like Ein doesn't have a story anymore so he's not in? Then give him a story like Hayate fell and bumped his head which made Ein emerge. But, the DOA6 roster is still large without Gen, Alpha, Ein and Leon so it's not too bad.

Still can't get over DOA people pulling out the Guilty Gear card over Nico, Marie, and Honoka lmao.

These two were too anime and didn't fit a game filled with so much Rock!! and Metal!!

I dont know how anyone would complain about Ramlethal. Such a cool character design.

For me it's a 7,5/10.
I do like all the characters (except some few exceptions but the more characters we have the happier I am).

- Like most of you, I'm sad for Nyotengu and Phase-4 being a day 1 DLC. That's why i preordered the deluxe edition, only for Phase-4, because I hate all the costumes of this set.
- I'm sad Rachel isn't here neither does Ein.
- No Momiji, Leon, GenFu or even Alpha. I'd love a game with just ALL the characters in it.
- I'd like to see more diversity too, too much characters are from Japan, China and USA. Africa, Europe, Middle-East, Antarctic, and Oceania need more characters or at least one character.

We get a 2nd marie rose character, generic male fighter. Missing Rachel & Momiji (and Ein) :|

That being said, I'm positively surprised how many characters they managed to bring back for doa 6 vanilla.

Okay what's this thing about NiCO looking like Marie Rose just because she's also petite? Half the roster has an identical busty body shape and people cry foul when now there's a second character that doesn't have big boobs?

They have different faces, at least as different as DOA faces can get in general. They also don't even have the same body shape- Marie Rose is actually a good bit thinner. I just don't get it.

People over there complained about Ramlethal and Elphelt the same way people here complained about Nico and the new girls. The new characters were too anime, didn't fit the game, were waifus, were uncreative, were in just to fill a trope, GG never had those elements before, and the original female cast were never anime. That should sound familiar.

The forbidden topic:eek:. I had the same line of thought once and wanted to know why people were suddenly so outraged at DOA6.

Why are people only now having an issue with the same face syndrome/ similar body type when it also existed in 5?
Why is the age 18 so bad/creepy now when in DOA1-4 there were multiple characters who were either 18 or younger?
How does blue and pink hair not fit or make a character too anime when DOA has purple, red, white, etc?
Why does Nico's lightning not fit in DOA when we have ninjas with magic?
How is Nico being an evil scientist any blander than Rig being an evil henchmen in 5?
How are the new characters blander than Mila who barely did anything in 5 besides have a couple lines and showered?

I don't know how new you are but be careful. You might step on landmine.:oops:
