Actually, it's bias to think that universal incumbency is inherently valuable, not the other way around. Divorcing yourself from nostalgia is going to be more objective than reverence for it. Maintaining a series' identity is important, of course, but the supporting characters you mentioned...

It's something I think we'll start seeing more of. Bandai started using Maximillian as a promotonal figure for their games, despite building his reputation with other games like KI and Marvel. TN wants DOA6 to appeal to the larger FGC, so it makes sense they'd pursue positive testimonies from...

I think they're worried what some of the more reputable DOA vets might say.

"/sik/ | adjective | 1. affected by physical or mental illness." Sounds about right.

I'm saving a healthy sum of rants until the game is released so as not to jump the gun. But yeah. I hear ya.

Stun>launch could suggest a gameplay identity. But why does no other character represent Ein's brand of stun->launch (and why should they not be modified to)? What is it that makes it so idiosyncratic? That's what I'm interested in hearing.

Ryu and Ken put together don't justify a single character, let alone two. I would be aiming to uphold a slightly higher standard were I in TN's position. "Differences" is not enough to justify a character. Those differences must establish a distinct identity that is incompatible with...

They were not ommitted because of story irrelevance. I've already discussed why TN's claim that their roster is based on story significance is BS. Seniority is not a good reason. Just because something is old doesn't mean it's good. I don't really care what people want unless they can articulate...

I'd like to see Ein return, but I'd also like to hear a good reason why he should return. No one has made those yet, so were I Team Ninja, I'd be asking why he should be a priority. I'm not saying this just to be antagonistic. I legitimately want Ein players to interrogate their positions and...

They're not "both omitted for the same reasons." Giving Bayman an absurdly powerful offensive tool like that would make no sense given that he's designed as a defensive character. Yes, they could introduce a new character with the aerial redirect, and yes, that would be a way better character...

So what gameplay feature would Ein exclusively have that no other character would have anything akin to?
