Your post and av gave me the idea needed to make a suggestion... A dalek with a top hat, monocle and canesword.
In all seriousness though... Soul Calibur needs a chap.

I want the guy you got as a secret character in Soul Edge. I can't think of his name he is Seong Mina's Dad or other characters such as this. On the character creation side I really think they should leave it as is and keep it as a little cheap thing to try bring people into the game. By this I mean no custom characters online. Although I do kinda agree with Legion IV's sentiment which is why I want guest characters like him.

Also stop making shitty guest characters that have a very limited unique part to their moveset. Also make their moveset usable in character creation if it still exists.

What about half guests like Seong Mina's Dad? Just actually curious as to what you would think about someone like that.

I'd like a Castlevania characters, maybe Alucard (if he didn't resemble Raphael so much) or Gabriel Belmont.

Ezio Auditore or Bayonetta might fit in as well, and Kratos returning wouldn't be too bad either.

I can definitely see Ezio, his neutral stance could have him with a sheathed sword so one could take advantage of that, his hidden blades, his gun, smoke bomb (I smell a guardbreaker a la Yoshimitsu's A+B bad breath attack), and others. It would also fit quite well with the time period/style that the series resides in.

Could you throw me a link to where it was confirmed? It's not that I don't trust you, I just want to see any details that have been released.
I can totally do that!

Well for that, I see Dampierre from Broken Destiny coming back. He's kind of the best Soul Calibur character ever.

How you'd balance million stab is anyone's guess though :p I agree with Dante though, and/or Bayonetta.

Sounds perfectly fine to me :). Just star wars went to far same with link ect ect. Hell i thought Heihachi was a cool addition because he just fit better probably because hes a namco character. Just leave it to only other namco characters. like Spawn, was silly and i love spawn (looks at his shelf).

I see what you mean. I would rather if they fleshed out back stories a little like maybe even a guest appearance from Sigfried's Dad or a disgruntled first mate of Cervantes or something along those lines.

That'd be easy. Raphael already has something similar.

They should give the arbiter a shot, that would be excellent....oh and Samanosuke needs to be in something again because i'm beginning to suspect that i'm the only one who knows who that is.
I'm willing to bet you a considerable amount of money and panda-costumes that this isn't the case.

I heard they were originally planning to put Dante as a guest in SC3, but it didn't pan out.

Dante is alright for a choice but I would imagine that Vergil is a more proper figure for SC. Why? Because Vergil is constantly seeking power and the Soul Calibur would be something that Vergil would most definitely take an interest in. Not to mention he has an equally devastating moveset like Dante's that would easily translate well for SC.

True, but he might also be a little too close to Mitsurugi and Setsuka in style. As far as I remember, Dante would be the only one with a two-handed broadsword (not counting Siegfried's zweihander), and his potential moveset is really a lot larger.

Then again, if you gave Vergil Yamato, Beowulf, and Force Edge, it might work...

Also remember that during the fight with Arkham, he was no slouch using Dante's Rebellion sword. If anything, Vergil is just as competant with two-handed weaponry as he is with one-handed weaponry. Case in point - Nelo Angelo Vergil. Need I say more?
