The latest HoYoverse game has a lot to live up to. However, while Zenless Zone Zero is oozing with style, it's mixed on substance.
It looks very cool but the first Dragon's Dogma also looked very cool and I didn't enjoy it.
I never played the first Dragon's Dogma, but even I noticed the game has plenty of jank. Most of that jank was fixed in the PC version and generation 8 ports. I do see significant improvement, and the game is more than likely going to be good. Don't forget that Hideaki Itsuno is the one doing this, and he did the last one. The same man that took lead on the Devil May Cry franchise since DMC3 (technically 2, but fixing up Capcom's and the other director's screw ups). The same man that made best Devil May Cry, DMC5. Dragon's Dogma 2 is Itsuno's baby, and I can tell learned out for the past decade. Not my type of game, but I might check this out.
What is he talking about, DD1 didn't come out ten year ag-.... well motherucker
So I've never gotten the "Wa-" prefix for other characters. Wario works because he's basically an evil counterpart to Mario; the W is an inverted M. "Waluigi"? "Wapeach"? It's just gibberish in my mind. "Tuigi" (inverted L = T) and "Beach" (inverted P = b) would make a lot more sense.Character design for Wapeach, the evil counterpart to Peach as Wario is to Mario, from the person why did the design for Waluigi.
If you're thinking she doesn't really look like evil Peach, then you're right, she doesn't. She's inspired by Doronjo from Yatterman, much like Waluigi is a riff on the green guy. Word is that Nintendo wanted to avoid similarities.
Wario is a contraction of Mario and the Japanese 悪い (warui), which means bad or wrong. Likewise Luigi becomes Waluigi, which in Japanese would be pronounced more or less as Waruigi.
