News New character is Naotora (Sengoku Musou)

[Project Bokuho]

My guess as to when they'll release a gameplay trailer for her would be early February.

 

[Kodachi]

ahh so Samurai warriors 4: Empires comes out in march, I guess Naotora is TN's way of getting us to acknowledge it. well played TN...
A DLC pack would have sufficed.

I think we will see gameplay next month as well, she better be hype af

 

[Banana56]

Shed be cutesy and clumsy.


Sadly she or baochan the cat girl would be next, but id rather have lu linqui.

To both cover lu bu bases and have a girl who actually brings some variety

Lu Linqui seems likely, and I'd like her. She'd have a fun fighting style too.

Although yeah I think Guan Yinping has a higher chance seeing as TK seems to be trying to push her too. But still Lu Linqui is possible.

 

[KwonJigglypuff]

Still no gameplay video of Naotora ? Weird.

I'm curious.

I'm not sure if linqui is very popular though...

Yeah in the polls for 8xl she's not even top ten.

In fact Wang yuanji (the blonde who ayane has a costume of) is in 2nd place while Yinping is in 5th.


Though the more I think about it, the more I think they should have BOTH Yingping and Linqui, since the two are depicted as rivals, for multiple reasons (daughters of lu bu and guan yu, who gets to inherit Red Hare, and rivalry over combat strength).

Would be a devastating tag team. Not to mention they already have quite a few costumes available

I hope her gameplay isn't as boring as her design.

Well judging by the ng and other dlc characters, shell recycle an existing doa moveset with a couple signature moves unique to her

 

[SoftCabbage]

TN Director: "So we've successfully get Naotora to be approved by W-Omega Force as a guest character. What do you guys think how her movesets should like?"
Designer A: "Just mix Kasumi's and Rig's moves, sir"
Designer B: "Add Jann Lee's kicks too"

Designer C: "Ask our developer brother to assist us in translating her SW moves to DOA?"
* Designer C get kicked out of the window

The LEAST they could is record him being kicked out the window and use that for her cliffhanger lol

 

[KasumiLover]

I hope her English VA is either Janice Kawaye, Stephanie Sheh(SC4 style), Michelle Ruff (SC4 style), or Carrie Savage. They'd suit her so well.

 

[UpSideDownGRUNT]

Her VA will probably be her SW va if it has eng vo

 

[Argentus]

Or it'll stay Japanese like Akira


Seriously I've been playing DW thinking how Guan Yinping and Lu Linqui could be a tag team in DOA :3

Think tn would go for it?

 

[KasumiLover]

I don't think she has an eng. one, I looked her up and she seems Japanese only at the moment. I like her Japanese voice though, I just wish I knew who it was so I can see whom else she's voiced besides Naotora for background info.

Yes. Since few years ago they have no longer giving the games English VA due to the game typically bashed in the west. So now they'll wait for polling first before releasing in the US, which has been granted until now, but without English VA, which again, some western fans are complaining just because they don't want to read the subs. LOL.

It's the same for Nights of azure, it's being released in Japanese voice only... ya know they COULD just add both english and japanese and make everyone happy.

 

[KasumiLover]

I wouldn't mind if Japanese was her only language, I'd just like to be able to switch between languages every now and again. But who knows what they'll do, they have until march to finalize her before she drops.

Who would invest for the voice acting budget for such a risky product? That's the question.

Those who filled in the poll can't even guarantee that they would buy the game.

 

[Argentus]

Shell probably just recycle audio from her home game like the VFs, to be honest, rather than voicing new lines.

Ew, no please. That's why I don't use the VFs now, they have only one pain voice clip, and they sound so strange with the different voice box they use.

I'm pretty sure that TN is lazy enough that recycling her voice is exactly what they'll do. I never played her native game but I'm sure they can find a way to force in her lines from there.
