    Hot take. Not every RPG has to be open world and that some RPGs like Vesperia or even FF7 for the PS1, had something called an "Overworld" and was arguably a good formula that should stay / come back to. Especially for JRPGs.

    I'm good with overworld traversal being open world as long as faster travel & warping is added over time & some hidden goodies are sprinkled in here & there, just like in classic JRPGs with overworlds. But old school overworlds also shouldnt go the way of the dodo, especially by smaller budget or indie games... imo, we also shouldn't let prerendered backgrounds die out just like 8bit didn't die out.

    Hot or cold take, I genuinely believe that DOA5LR probably had another 2-3 years left so that DOA6 could of released in a proper timeframe to not only escape COVID, but also released in a state with proper budget, love, and potential longevity support.

    Ok maybe budget and support not sure lolol considering it's KT, so even if we waited it's not a guaranteed final concluded product.

    I just will never understand... KT had revived one of their classic series with a new hit game, and they decide to follow it up with a sequel with a lower budget and less effort? Boggles the mind. They could have at least not rushed it out after ending DOA5LR's support... I wish they weren't so averse to releasing complete versions, it's been 10 years but I guess they still expect people to buy DOA5 costumes.

    man, I don't think I could of handled another 2-3 years of DOA5, i was so burnt out by year 7, but given that DOA6's major pitfall is that it lacked direction and passion, no amount of extra budget or dev time was going to fix those issues, that said, a DOA5LR who's end didn't come so abruptly and a fully realized DOA6 would've been preferable to what we actually got :/

    Oh, for sure, if KT was cool to support it a little more into 2018. I loved the tournaments that involved Japanese and other such international players. They were pretty hype. What stifled momentum hard was the poorly executed announcement of the "end of DOA5LR" that produced a dire feeling between December 2017 and June 2018.

    What's the biggest misconception / misinformation a character you heard of? I'll start. Akira. In DOA5 years ago, one of the biggest lies told is that he needs you to block. Not blocking is actually the worse option. Here is Akira's innate rock/paper/scissors:

    If you block, you get guard broken.

    If you "don't" block, you'll get counterhit (worst option) due to his high damage.

    If you SS too much, you are thrown.

    That you pronounce Helena with an H. You pronounce the H silently so it's Elena.

    "The opponent AI in DOA6 can sometimes use Christie's old 7ppppp jab string from DOA4, therefore - much like Christie's 3k and 6k canceling to JAK stance - it must be a hidden move."

    This is false. Though the AI sometimes uses it, the 7ppppp string - unlike 3k JAK and 6k JAK - was dummied out, making it impossible for the player to use.

    Kasumi X Ryu

    this was an old misconception from way way WAY back in the day but I clearly remember seeing hella Kasumi X Ryu fanart back then and it was very confusing, DOA2 was the latest DOA at that point and these characters only had 1 interaction( 2 if you count the victory screens), so why were there so many depictions of these 2 characters being all lovely dovey? i could not tell you why :/
    DestructionBomb
    Wait, people thought DOA was going to be on State of Play? lmao.

    Venus Vacation is popular than the fighting game brand for a reason. Because the sex appeal is not only inline with its previous titles & added new things from swimsuit malfunctions, touching mechanics (which makes them not happy if you touch breast or butt), even pulling on their swimsuit (for maid bikini & pajama), and this level of sex appeal what DOA6 should've had.

    The games costume selection having swimsuits, full clothed outfits, & hyper revealing outfits which could easily be a successor to DOA5 & DOAX games. The games monetization practice alone should give developers/publishers a good reason to care only about what VV crowd wants along with influencing the directions of the DOA franchise.

    The fighting game should've just copy paste what DOA5 previously had to offer along with taking some things from DOAX3 & VV their costumes & features are worth $92 Season Passes, but DOA6 threw it away which made the fighting game less popular. All the fighting game should do now is follow DOAXVV path from its release (JP & Asia, on PC only) to its level of sex appeal.

    Bayonetta is out on First Descendant. Just so that people know what they are getting themselves into:

    - It's a Bayonetta Skin cosmetic.
    - The character itself is not in the game.
    - Emotes from her various poses from the games are in TFD.
    - All characters in the game can use the cosmetic skin (except the dudes for obvious reasons, though missed opportunity for them to add Luka or Rodin outfits for the dudes).

    The most disrespectful NG message I seen was when someone said Wuthering Waves is superior to NG in every way. Combat or not, the moment you enter the gacha territory you lost all credibility in my opinion lol.

    Still found it interesting that Square (or probably SquareSoft at the time maybe) actually almost bought Tecmo many many years ago. Wonder how that would of looked in another timeline.

    I'm 100% glad it was not Square Enix who bought Tecmo. Because the level of Sex Appeal & Characters like Marie Rose would never exist under Square Enix hands, would've been worst since SE has an Ethics Department (as I like to call it Censor Department). DOA would've been better off with the exact budget DOAX3 had, just so more games can get produced.

    DOA wouldn't exist unfortunately if Squaresoft acquired Tecmo.

    Wonder if it would have been before or after Ehrgiez and the Tobal games.

    And we can guess how Tecmo would be treated by looking at how Taito was treated under them, I guess...
