Tsk tsk tsk... and I was just about to say "CALLED IT!"
Truthfully that would have actually have been majorly epic. Oh well, off to bed I go. Perhaps there'll be some concrete info tomorrow/later today.
Like I said styles like Tina's and Bass' while are made more "fantastic" to the point of fantasy and show for the game, they're based off real styles and could be considered "normal" even if it's a bit of a stretch using that particular word. Lisa's style while an actual style is considered one...
Obviously fighting games take liberties with fighting styles as it's a game so things are more exaggerated and made more "fantastic" but "normal" fighting styles fall into the category of characters like Ein, Mila, Tina (again, made "fantastic"), Eliot.
Thing about characters like Lisa...
6H+K is worthless.
Nope. 4H+K is his fastest high launcher at i14 and does more launch and juggle damage than 6H+K at any threshold. 6H+K and it's strings are basically just worthless and should never be used in any situation ever.
He's got a quick tracking move but the problem is you...
If the new character ended up not being Tengu I'd be very interested in seeing who it would be, as long as it wasn't a VF character, another new character would frankly be awesome. Ryo Hazuki would be cool but I've had my fill of guest characters we won't be seeing in the future.
Of course, I...
There will most certainly be balance changes. You don't typically get new characters without there being changes to the existing ones. The only question will be how long after the arcade release will console players have to wait until a patch brings us up to date. As well as getting that extra...
Just a few of these things would make Ein so much better of a character, it's unrealistic that he'd get all or even half of these changes but anything's possible and if he got any of them it would show that Team Ninja is listening.
1. Ein players definitely gravitated more toward 6P+K than...
DO NOT BE INTIMIDATED BY THE POST SIZE, YOU ARE NOT EXPECTED TO READ IT ALL AT ONCE.
Had to put that disclaimer up there, can't be scaring people off with my walls of text.
I'm just going to say it, Ein is one of the worst characters in this game. He's not rock bottom but he's definitely low...
Playable Hayate.
That's pretty much all I want to be added at this point. Everything else points to refinement of certain mechanics that people have been asking for since the first Ninja Gaiden on Xbox.
