DOA5 Wishes it looked this impressive/badass/cool/awesome.

God. Kinda depressing, that video just emphasizes how utterly BLAND DOA got with 5.

Mila is seriously the only good thing that came from DOA5. I can't even say graphics because stages got uglier, and while characters were given more detail, half of them got hit with an ugly stick.

I don't understand why people liked the ice/water stages so much, every hit stunned and it was a huge pain. Nothing worse comes to mind than the little square of water you could get caught in on the bridge stage.

Because they are purdy.


That armdrop move Leon uses to KO Bass at 5:00. I don't remember it being in his DOA5 movelist. Is it? If not...


I want it back. Alongside his 'You pansy!" and "Come back once you've wiped your ass!" Win quotes.

You see, because he beat the shit out of those pansies.

That move is no longer in the game. As for the latter win quote, he still has it, but the English dubs are different from the Japanese dialogue and the subtitles reflect the English dubs, even when playing with Japanese voices. Leon's Japanese voice actor is clearly still saying "come back once you've learned to wipe your ass" though.

I thought you loved bland. You're always praising Mila for being boring, saying she's the only good character for her vanilla garden-variety blandness. You zhuzh it up a bit though by calling it 'simple brutality.' Then you put down other characters with awesome teleports and flashy moves BECAUSE of their their awesome flashy moves. :/

No, I love practical combat. And I don't find Mila boring at all. I find the characters with the teleports and "flashy moves" to be really boring because its long winded moves that are really impractical and not even awesome at all to make up for the impracticality. Just flips for the sake of flips, which makes them look like idiots trying to be flashy for no reason, which is boring.

Think of indiana jones. The ninjas would be that guy twirling swords around across the street, mila would be Indy just shooting him and being done with it.

why wouldn't they have the ass wiping line in the subtitles or dub? And why remove that armdrop? looked awesome.

It's likely just a case of "this line doesn't actually make that much sense in English, so let's change it a bit." There are a number of people who wouldn't really get "learn to wipe your ass," but almost anyone can understand knocking someone's teeth out.

If something can be considered as boring because it takes to much time and is not that effective, it's not the moves or teleports of the ninjas but rather the moveset of the grapplers and wrestlers (Bass and Leon, especially Tina).

For example, Leon when he is raising his opponent up with the hands on the head or Tina with her special wake up throw (don't know the inputs of these). Not that much damage, but disrupting the combat's flow which is considered to be fast in DOA in general. Bayman is quite fast with breaking bones or dislocating someones extremities.

It's all a matter of opinion. Personally I find Mila to be the most horrendously boring character in the game regarding their fighting style. I believe she was designed with boredom as a primary focus. After that would be Gen Fu, Sarah, Momiji, Pai and Zack (there, I did it; I just pissed off half of everyone here, lol).

Everyone else is actually visually pretty cool, imo.

I think some effects changes for stages would be welcome.

But, I also contend that someone could've made an opening as hype as the DOA3 one using the story cutscenes, existing stages (even pre-DO5U ones), and WTF Cloverfield-camera-on-drugs techniques that that opening had. lol

Well, they could've. Not that they did... Some of the trailers for this game aren't that terrible, though.
