Honestly looking Back at The Oldar Doa Games Especially 4 I think Endings Like these Were Amazing



It Had Pretty Much The Best Mix Of The Characters Action And Emotion And Now Looking at Doa5 Where they focus more on the women more then the Story its kinda Sad...:(

Yeah... I wouldn't like a bad one. For a start all the new characters need a chapter in the story to flesh them out.
And there should be story chapters for villains as well this time so that they aren't just constantly getting beat in very battle. I also don't want to see Alpha now that Phase 4 is in the game( She could be a secret unlockable character)
I'm also guessing there will be another subplot about the sixth tournament considering that's the only way to fit a lot of the characters into the story. And finally every character should also get an ending for arcade mode. MK9 and MKX did it so so can DOA6.

First of all, this is kinda a rhetorical question; OBVIOUSLY EVERYONE wants what's best for the series and a better storyline would be part of the package.

Second of all;
The mode was fine, but the story sucks.
It's a fighting game, do you really expect better?

I think xrd style story mode makes sense. I mean, fighting game story mode stuff, you are only going to play through that shit once. why bother designing the fights? Just make it cutscene only and let player watch through it and that's it.

I want DOA6 to do the same thing 5 did. Chapters so you know what's canon since in previous games the same fights had different outcomes depending on which character you were using which was dumb. The writing of the serious parts could have been better but I liked the silly/funny parts.

I agree. Many critisize DOA5's story/story mode but it is actually the first time that there was a conceivable story. Everything I know of the story of past DOAs I had to google. I had no clue what was going on in DOA1, DOA2, DOA3 and DOA4. With DOA5 I had a clue and I think everything was nicely presented. It won't win any Academy Awards but for a fighter it was perfectly fine.
I just wished you could chose which costumes to wear... >__> Usually, whenever I get a costume I really like, I would play the story mode again to get a better look at it in cutscenes.
But to answer the question:
Sure, who wouldn't want a better story? Better is always...better. XD

Someone actually voted no?! How is that possible? I find it hard to believe that someone here wouldn't want everything to be better for 6

I want more dramatic one liners and epic dialogue between the characters.
:kasumi:~I'm looking for Alpha 152....but I bet you already know.
:lisa:~Whatever do you mean?

As awkward as some of the dialogue was, I really liked the interaction between all the characters, and seeing what some of them did in their free time. I also liked the double entendres that frequently popped up like:
:hitomi:~So yummy! Hey check this out...

They made the story a lot more amusing.

Nope..... crazy as it sounds I like the quality of the story just the way it is.

And I'm not just talking about DoA... I mean that for the entire Fighting Game Genre.

I like the way DOA 5 structured their story mode but I would like to see some of the different game modes integrated into it. There should be a few tag matches, and maybe a mini-survival mode and a mini-time attack worked into the story. A team battle could be used as a final showdown of heroes vs villains.

Another thing I would like to see is special cinematics that would play depending on what happens during a fight. A couple of examples:
  1. You're fighting Christie in the Hot Zone stage. You hit her with a power blow to knock her into the helicopter but instead of getting knocked into it as usual the cinematic would change to her grabbing onto it and escaping as it flies away, ending the fight.
  2. Fighting in the Home stage. If the fight hasn't gone out to the courtyard and a lot of damage was done inside, then when the fight ends an added cinematic would play with the landlord of the building walking in demanding an explanation of why you destroyed the rooms and who is going to pay for the damages. After this the story would continue as normal.
Extra cinematics like these could add some replay value to the story mode. Maybe you could have something special if you play through the story activating all of the extra cinematics like an extended end sequence.

Honestly gotta agree and go with this.
The main issue of past DOA games with canon was the fact that it was really hard to tell which part was canon and which wasn't.
Even the fighter who ultimately beat the final bosses of each game is honestly up in the air till the next game(until DOA4 honestly but even then it still suffers from the problem of which parts really happened and which didn't).
So the fact that DOA5 actually made chapters that ultimately showed what happened for each character is a plus. There simply needs to be better writing and honestly that's it. That or:

I think xrd style story mode makes sense. I mean, fighting game story mode stuff, you are only going to play through that shit once. why bother designing the fights? Just make it cutscene only and let player watch through it and that's it.

This. Honestly okay with either option to be frank.
