      why? This means his fighting style is completely dead.

      Although, if what this rumor is saying is true, his style could very well become an unlocked style for created characters.
      
      In that case, it would be good for people who don’t really like Yun-Seong’s character but dig his moveset.

    I am quite certain that him saying “enjoy my mad photoshop skills” is referring to the fact that the images were edited. Notice how it has some very poorly done paint shop cuts where the “name” would be? I’m pretty sure that was done so Namco doesn’t know where the leak originated from since it would be in whatever language.

William Carpenter

Yo, I’ve never been that big of a fan of Soulcalibur’s characters or lore, but SCV seems extra boring. If they were gonna do a time skip they should have gone all out and replaced more characters. I feel like maybe they were too conservative about how much they changed the cast.

And besides, where is Rock’s son, Bangoo? This was a perfect chance to show him all grown up.

So Alpha Patroklos is an actual seperate character?
I’d incite Bone Claw Wolverine shenanigans here, but he has a different moveset.

No idea why they just didn’t put it on a different character, new or otherwise *cough*.

No excuse for no Zasalamel/Setsuka/Yunsung/Mina/Talim. No excuse whatsoever.

And that damn “Alpha” Patroklos being a recoloured poorly-animated Setsuka replacement is damn near unforgivable.

http://www.facebook.com/TotallyAdorable Ricky Braun

Setsuka is in the game, whether or not you like the person utilizing her moveset is irrelevant.

It IS, however, sad that Zasalamel, Yun-Seong, Seong-Mina, and Talim didn’t make it in. Although, Talim maybe was left out because she’s been hard to balance. Or maybe time constraints just didn’t leave it feasible. There are plenty of plausible excuses any rational person would accept. I do still agree that it is rather sad, even if they weren’t the most popular movesets.
- William Carpenter
  
  Setsuka is not in the game.
  
  The moveset is not named Setsuka. A moveset and a character are not the same thing. They are not interchangeable concepts.
  
  Do not be silly.

  - http://www.facebook.com/TotallyAdorable Ricky Braun
    
    Well, the moveset was previously known as ‘Soul of Setsuka’, but I’ll ignore that
    
    If you like the character for her playstyle, it’s still there.
    
    If you like the character for her story, fantastic, perhaps you also enjoyed the part where it ended?
    
    If you like the character for her appearance/theme, then I suppose you’re screwed. That’s about the only reason to be upset, and it isn’t a particularly big reason…
- Snow Loss
  
  I’m keeping my fingers crossed that they moved them to ‘create a soul’ movelists or something. Zasalamel was way too unique and interesting of a fighter/ stylist to not be included in my opinion.

So 4 characters are pretty much nothing more than cheap moveswaps? Thats awful and also a strong sign that they probably did not bother with improving the gameplay either.
But at least we got some tits and a silly character creator…

Most people who have played have said otherwise about the gameplay. It’s first impressions, of course, but the unanimous opinion I’ve heard is that it’s a much more aggressive game.

It doesn’t bother me. I wish they didn’t add Alpha Patrokokladfas or whatever to make old fighting styles playable. Why not leave those styles and more styles exclusive for Character Creation instead.

So first the devs say they want to tone down the whole “titty monster stripper” vibe the series was giving off. And now this version of Sophitia which is less dressed than Italian women I’ve seen in a Roman themed porn. Slots taken up by the most generically lame hero characters in the series with styles stolen from other characters who were arguably more interesting. Let’s get rid of Setsuka, and give her unique style of fighting to “generic anime hero archtype #5″. Jesus Christ. It’s official, Project Soul gave up. This series should have died with 4.

In addition to the other suggestions, it may also be because (from what I hear, anyways) art teams generally get done a lot earlier than the other sections of development. The Mimes are a way of giving the players extra content from the art team instead of just having them sit there until release.

Just an idea, of course.

Amazing how fast hype can decrease so much just because one or two insignificant characters don’t return for something.

Screw all the neat modes and mechanics this game have to offer! If this one character I like isn’t in this game I’m not buying anything ever again because I’m entitled to everything I want no matter how ridiculous it is!

Screw all the neat modes and mechanics this game have to offer! If this one character I like isn’t in this game I’m not buying anything ever again because I’m entitled to everything I want no matter how ridiculous it is!

Wanting actual characters instead of ones that copy moves is not ridiculous.

  Except they are actual characters and perhaps people should start learning how to play as different characters for once instead of relying on the same old ones over and over again while spamming cheap moves. Like I said before, mimic characters were made in mind for the expert players who actually bother to try out other characters and adapt multiple playstyles. And besides, we still know very little about Elysium. We only know she’s a mimic character but nothing further than that like what makes her unique as one

    Is a character without their own moveset really a “character” in the world of fighting games? Or are they just a character model?
    
    Regardless, more than one mimic character is pointless.

      I just want to see what Talim looks like 17 years later, when she’s an actual woman, that would be the coolest of all the character transformations. None of the other returning characters looks like they’ve actually gotten 17 years older. But Talim they would kind of be forced to make her look older since she was so young to begin with. But even if she isn’t, I’m still really excited for the game as a whole.

    They are characters in the sense that they have their own identities, but they lack the component of an individual play style, which in the case of a fighting game makes them quasi characters. Yes Ryu, Ken, and Akuma are very similar, but they do have their individual nuances which make them different.
    
    My point is that while Mokujin is indeed a character nobody plays him (at least seriously), because you might as well just play the actual character he is mimicking. Besides Soul Calibur had Sophitia, Lizard Man, and Cassandra who all basically have a variation of the sword and shield style, so there is no point in having three mimic chars when you could just make them slightly different as they have done before.

      Akuma maybe, but hardly Ken.
      
      Still, I argue mimic characters are just as good since they can act as a players overall/average skill and expertise of the game’s roster. I’ve never been too fond of clone characters, but mimics definitely open up a good deal possibilities, like Unknown for instance. She was pretty much the Shang Tsung in that she could adopt a different moveset during the game instead of waiting for a new round.

    We really don’t need three EdgeMasters in the game. One is good enough. If people want to bitch about a female version, make the alternate costume a female version.

Last I checked, we were entirely entitled to buy or not buy whatever we wished with our own earned money, whatever our excuse is, lame or not, because it’s our money and we worked for it (save all you kiddies that get it from your parents.) If you somehow, in some incredible streak of stupidity, think otherwise, kindly shove your head up your ass and go about talking shit to yourself where we can’t hear.

  Guess what though: these games aren’t made out of thin air. They spend their waking and sleeping hours as well as tons of money creating entertainment for you and me as well as every single person who’s ever posted on this site. Sure, you’re be entitled to what you buy. No one said you hadn’t any choice in the matter of what you wanted to buy, but don’t pretend like developers should bend to your every single solitary whim and then throw a hissyfit when they do things the way they want. It’s their creative project, not yours. Why don’t you take your head out of your butt and stop bein’ a baby and pissing over someone’s hard work over the absence of a roster choice.

    Hmm, odd, thought the messages were disappearing off of SRK and getting deleted or something, but they’re still here on Disqus. Eh well, anyhow, onward…
    
    1. I never said the company had to bend. I merely stated that I and no one else need compromise and bend to give our money if we don’t feel the product is worth our time.
    
    2. How “hard” my job is doesn’t equate to anything here, what does is the fact it’s a “job” in the first place. I’m a medical assistant, if my service sucks, I don’t get hired, lose hours, etc. One mistake could mean the difference between a client firing me and keeping me on the job. Likewise, if an entertainment company puts out product with flaws in something, it doesn’t get bought, they lose money, hours, etc. It’s basic business 101. They don’t get some magical get-out-of-jail free card for being game developers. It’s not a matter of difficulty, it’s a matter of you put in your time to do work, to get cash that YOU choose how to spend, and no one else. It’s funny how you try and tell me not to use the “hard work for money” card here when that is essentially your defense here for the devs. “Wah, they work so hard to bring you this game, look at all this, wah wah, buy it! Just ignore the screw ups, wah!”
    
    3. I’m not pissing on the devs, my biggest complaint for the game so far is merely that Talim’s weapon style hasn’t been confirmed, but I realize even that might still show up as a create-a-character thing. I fully understand that shortcuts may have been made thanks to business constraints. What I am pissing on is your childish little belief that people should compromise and buy product they don’t think they would enjoy, for whatever reason they may not enjoy it. If someone believes having 3 mimic characters or omitting something in a previous game is a fatal flaw for them, or even just shows a company policy they don’t like, they are fully entitled and justified in not purchasing or liking the game to not support those qualities. It’s their money and their choice. If the devs ever deemed that money valuable enough to care (and I’m not saying it is,) they’ll have to rectify their mistake via DLC, or the next iteration.

No Zasalamel, Rock, Talim, and Yun- NO buy. The game has TOOO MANYYY unnecessary clone characters in, when you already have Edge Master (that’s all you need for a character using other abilities). I didn’t expect Project Soul to flop like this, and for the most part they never fail to continue to put characters people want in.
If Zas, Rock, Talim, and Yun Seong were not part of the story, they could of just simply put them in as unlockables and not given them a story.
Well I have Soul Calibur 4 and to me it’s still a better product than Soul Calibur 5. SC5 new characters just don’t stand out well enough for me to buy it.

Xianghua is my favorite from the series. She’s been my main since SC1 and even though you can use her daughter which seem and looks almost the same, it’s not the same.

Why not just give us a matured version of her. what’s wrong with having a fine looking grown woman in the game. I’ve never seen anyone complain about Ivy being old or Rose or Chun li or whatever.

Ivy, Story-wise, is ageless because of her cursed blood just as Maxi is ageless as well because of the shard of Soul Edge he has inside his body.
