Also DOA isn't Smash Bros. The implementation and balance of each character takes way more resources compared to having six different Marios who have all the same button commands. A fighting game like DOA demands a lot of care and attention to each fighter and how they measure against one...

There were (and are) a lot of games that have "excessive fanservice" that didn't survive the 90s. DOA grew in popularity because it was a good game. Also Virtua Fighter has had as many iterations as DOA (until 6) without having any such fanservice. Things like jiggle physics are a novelty placed...

Jesus, I never considered myself a Tina fan, but after watching her absolutely body a man like that I'm suddenly wearing a cowboy hat and boots.

I wasn’t paying attention and thought this was a real new character, so well done! I love her.

I think they mean a prop out of nowhere. The Ninjas fight with their swords on their person.

I didn't have much interest in NiCO when she was first revealed, but now? She might be my new favorite. I just love that she's this little jerk who can pull out dank science fiction moves on you.

I'm still so confused by this alleged popular need for Momiji as DOA fighter. She's already in the Xtreme series and Ninja Gaiden, that's two of the three main TN titles. And like I said, I'm still unconvinced she was comparatively popular amongst people actually playing DOA proper. Also if you...

Yeah I like the Ninjas, but you’re right in that too much time is spent on them. Also their story is too self contained and not really integrated with the other characters. Also I feel like ironically not much has happened over the series with the Ninjas- all their relationships are still the...

Maybe other people have mentioned this before, but Leifang's Jann Lee-inspired gear is really sick, maybe my favorite I think it’s an ode to classic kung fu movies where there’s inexplicable dust to emphasize impact. Samo Hung and Jackie Chan could be fighting in a sterilized clean room and it...

When it comes down to it, TN didn’t want to put Momiji & Rachel in the game for a variety of reasons, I don’t see what’s so confounding about this. You don’t have to like it, but it’s not exactly mysterious. It doesn’t matter how we interpret the definition of “guest character,” if TN never...

Not with English subtitles. Thanks!

If they're going to add new characters with each iteration, eventually someone was going to get cut. I'm not saying it *had* to be Leon or Gen Fu or whoever, but at some point some characters are going to get retired if they keep adding new ones with each iteration. My one big complaint with...

DOA6's customization seems promising- just enough to not be super tacky like Tekken or the Lovecraftian horrors of SoulCalibur.

That actually makes a lot of sense! Make it something pretty hard to unlock, so when you win you get some additional bragging rights.

I totally get Shimbori and friends not wanting to have Ninja Gaiden characters at launch. I'm also suspicious as to whether Rachel and Momiji are actually as popular as Twitter commenters suggest. I don't think I've ever actually seen a Momiji player online or in a tournament. Rachel saw...

I think it's hard to compare MK11 and DOA6 with just still images. MK11 definitely has more resolution and detail, but I think that only makes it look shiny in still images. Mortal Kombat animation is so janky and stiff, and I find the faces creepy. If we're talking graphics as in "nice and...

In my opinion, DOA has always had really strong and delightful characters, but generally unimpressive stories. Which is the case for most fighters, honestly. That said, this leaked tease really seems like the story might be awesome? I don't know, there's really tight narrative potential here...

I could be wrong but I would put money down on there being additional win poses at launch. That just seems like an odd thing to cut back on from DOA5.

Hey folks! I've been into 3d fighters since VF2 on the old Sega Saturn, and got into Dead or Alive I think around DOA2U. DOA is my very favorite fighting series. I especially like how it captures that old school martial arts tournament vibe with all the real-life styles.
