Mostly for convenience and reliability. At least for me.Paragon Fury said:
It's not really like having an RTS on a console. You still have the option to play with a stick or pad, unlike a console RTS such as Halo Wars which restricts you to only one control method.
The PC version of SSFIV AE feels no different from the console versions to me.
Er, I'm pretty sure Amane is meant to be the 'trap' of this game. Kinda like Bridget in GG.Fappy said:Also... am I the only one who thinks Amane looks/sounds like a dude in drag?
Holy shit, her symbol is a dick and balls!
EDIT: The symbol is more clear in the video. This image shows up at 0:45.
I agree, I'm not feeling these new characters. Though, I thought Makoto and Tsubaki looked silly when I first saw them, but they grew on me. Tsubaki is one of my favourite characters now. I'm hoping these guys will grow on me as well.
I like Noel's new look, but I miss the hat. ):
Well, hopefully people can handle multiple games, or P4A will have drawn in plenty of new blood, because otherwise we may run into a problem. It's going to be difficult getting each games' playerbases to blow up when people are spread across so many games. New-school fighters (or airdash/anime fighters) have always been pretty niche. I fear that P4A, BBCP and GGXXAC+R will cannibalize one another.
And poor Skullgirls, that game caters to the same audience as these titles do.

Looks like Noel got a few upgrades, pretty hyped to try her out actually. Did she transform her guns into a rifle mid-combo or was that just me that saw it? Oh, Bullet looks pretty awesome too... like of like Makoto but a little faster with a bit of range is my guess at this point.
I stand corrected, then =P
And damn! Can't even access Dustloop right now, the server's so busy. I take it information has come in from the location tests, or have they not happened yet?

Yep, you're reading this wrong, this is a new BLAZBLUE game and the chars are BLAZBLUE chars. Their depth is tantamount to that of about 5 chars in other games, each.

I have a DL link above, go there, it has it all broken down.
That doesn't make much sense. This is a sequel, there has been two other games. BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger and Continuum Shift.Dreiko said:
It said that there was 3 new characters. In Calamity Trigger there was 12 characters, in Shift there was 19 if you added the characters from Shift 2 that was released and DLC. Now this one says it will have 20 as some characters are removed...
That seems kind of a rip off considering it's being sold as the next game in the series with a total of 1 more character then the game before, but with some removed. :/
Korten12 said:
This is a transition like the one from CT to CS1, only three chars were added there too. The rest were DLC or in subsequent versions, not in the very first one. This will keep with that tradition.
As for removing chars, no char is confirmed for removal, there's most likely gonna be a Mu and Lambda/Nu equivalent in the game, they just can't be the exact same persons cause of story reasons which if you have played the story you should be aware of. They haven't been confirmed yet cause their existence itself would constitute spoilers. You can, however, see Nu's crest in the end of the trailer, in the very last image that flashes on for a second.
