...as DLC.in fact, there's 20 DLC characters. FUCKING 20.in a game with 20 characters for launch.ahahahahahaahhahahahaha....https://gematsu.com/2018/01/blazblue-cross-tag-battle-launches-may-31-japan-asia-june-5-north-america-adds-dlc-character-blake-belladonnahttp://www.arcsystemworks.jp/portal/post-7766/
I don't want to pay for Taokaka or Teddie.I don't want to pay for Yang.I don't want to pay for half of the UNIEL cast.WHY
Well that's one way for the switch to make a good buck (in terms of dlc)rgveda99 said, January 13, 2018, 04:36:15 pmTo support whatever's left of 2D fighting games?I can relate to that man. The ten commandants of gaming states that all fighting games must have 2d gameplay instead of 3d (with the exceptions of DOA, Soul Caulibur, Tekken, and Virtua Fighter)
rgveda99 said, January 13, 2018, 04:36:15 pmTo support whatever's left of 2D fighting games?no dude this is different. I fully support dlc for fighting games but this, is pure bullshit.20 characters for launch in itself isn't bad and dlc itself isn't bad. its the fact that theyre literally charging for another half of the roster that sounds like it's supposed to be for the base game like fucking Blake, who is a MAIN CHARACTER of RWBY. The roster we have right now is the launch roster. Yes, just that. It's EA levels of scummy considering most of the game is Re-Used assets in the first place with more of the DLC being even more reused assets.Like I said I am usually a supporter for DLC, but this? THIS? no. this is bad. Nobody can defend this type of thing.20 characters before the game even launches?! Not one, two, or 6, fucking 20. Fuck that.
rgveda99 said, January 13, 2018, 04:36:15 pmTo support whatever's left of 2D fighting games?I'm all for paid DLC, in fact, I knew DLC was going to occur when the select screen had "ETC" in it, leaving room for possibilities.But leaving a core RWBY character (2 of them) as DLC is just insane when part of your target audience expects the full 4 girls in the base roster. A RWBY DLC character will make sense if it's someone that's a fan favorite like Qrow, someone not involved in the game's story (if any) like Cinder, or even if it's Volume 4 Ruby Rose as an EX character. The latter wouldn't take much work compared to a freshly made character and would still be a better DLC choice than BLAKE.Looking at the DLC choices, I hope there's one completely newly sprited character bundled with other previously made sprites. Torakaka with Taokaka and Kokonoe, P3 Makoto Yuki with other P3 members, Tsukuyomi with Byakuya and another member, maybe an ETC character to go along, make them play the hinting game. And make them seperately for the cost of an avatar except the newcomer.I don't expect ArcSys to do any of them.MightyKombat said, January 13, 2018, 05:41:57 pmsmells like street fighter x tekkenWell at least Jin Kazama wasn't a freaking pre-order bonus.
Is there a video that demonstrates the new mechanics of Blazblue Tag Battle? I've been trying to find one on YouTube, and so far my efforts have been unsuccessful.
Wow wtf, what a total hype killer.It's an ArcSys game, I expected it to have some DLC (on disk or not). But wow, this is way more than I thought.Does any other fighting game have this much character DLC?
Kirishima said, January 13, 2018, 05:42:34 pmI don't expect ArcSys to do any of them.And I'm right.There's a theory going on that the 18 of the 20 DLC characters are indeed reused characters. The only 2 newcomers really are Blake and Yang.10 BB/4 P4A/4 UNIEL/2 RWBY doubled into 20 BB/8 P4A/8 UNIEL/4 RWBY fit for balance.
I think the main issue is that the core roster is missing Blake and Yang (what are those two doing while everyone else is fighting? (It's yuri!!)) and that the other 18 characters will be made from recycled assets.
rgveda99 said, January 13, 2018, 04:36:15 pmTo support whatever's left of 2D fighting games?i'd buy 2d fighting games if it ain't blatantly ripping me off, 80% of the cast are ripped from other games they didn't even made major changes. this is sfxt level of bullshittery but at least sfxt made new models for the namco side.
That's upsetting, I initially expected a balance with the crossover with 5 characters representing each franchise, but for it to be so unbalanced at launch just doesn't seem right
crimson_snow said, August 08, 2017, 03:46:05 pmIn an interview by Famitsu to Mori, there are some surprising tidbits about BBCTB.- Story Mode will explain why everything happened.- Target market will be outside Japan.I am so curious how this will turn out now.

Did they really? I haven't been paying attention to their announcements as much as I initially thought
