[Xrd] News & (Theoretical) Gameplay Discussion

[Zazz]

was arc watching the skullgirls fundraiser?

Potemkin looks like Panzerfaust!

Chipp & Venom look pretty much unchanged except some small variations.

May looks . . . weaker? Her arms look so thin compared to her AC art.

[Akujikan]

May actually looks younger now than she did before, which makes me sad. Everyone else is cool, though. Eddie not being there is both puzzling and hilarious.

[Rhapsody]

Absolutely forgot that characters were assumed to be shown today because of the site.

Glad to see May and Venom already. Potemkin also looks pretty some. Happy to see some characters getting big design tweaks.

[Rhiya]

I'll take a stab they were trying to find a good spread to run a loketest with.

I think this makes sense, from that perspective.

[A.X.I.S.]

Yo Pot we need to go to Mr. Allens dawg.

Yo shoes looking mighty ratchet.

[LeonD]

No.... I want Dizzy... but May's fine! XD

[Starlight777]

Pot looks so much like Panzerfaust it hurts. May looks like she aged backwards, while Venom and Chipp aren't that different.

[Rhiya]

I'm not gonna lie.

May looks like someone mashed up Sora and Reimu, turned their clothes orange, and gave them an anchor.

[Rhannmah]

May's face seems older. Not enough, mind you, but still. How many years passed since the end of XX series, technically?

[XXXDC]

Extremely disappointed with new May and Pot designs.

[LeonD]

I'm not gonna lie.

May looks like someone mashed up Sora and Reimu, turned their clothes orange, and gave them an anchor.

Oh snap... now you have mentioned it! 0,0

Btw, Venom has some weird mark on his left arm, could anybody tell me wat's that?

And with those new "shoes", how on earth could Potemkin walk normally??? @.@

[YoYoCheese]

It's great to see my boy Chipp back in action!

lolwut at Potemkin

[Kitsoru]

May's face seems older. Not enough, mind you, but still. How many years passed since the end of XX series, technically?

It's been a year since Overture, so it's 2186. XX takes place in 2181, AC+ in early 2182 at latest. So 4-5 years.

[AMB Bakery]

looking at Venom's command list.... wtf? no D ball? and no dubious curve? is QV the replacement to it? What the hell is "bishop runout"? There are a hell of a lot of questions to be raised just from that alone, can't say much for the other characters since I know nothing about them.

[Zeromus_X]

I'm happy Venom is in at least. I can't quite make out what his marking says, but it looks like everyone has some sort of meaningful insignia now.

[youcanwonder]

Man where is baiken at....

[LeonD]

Alright, after scouring all the char's art:

_ Pot has Burly Heart marked all over his Armor;

_ May has some Jellyfish marked on the tips of her anchor, and something like "a work of Novel..." (?) at the other end;

_ Venom has some kind of a mark on his left arm and his legs. (Assasin's Mark?)

Chipp is too small to see though....

[Starlight777]

It makes sense they would save Eddie for later, he does a lot of transforming in his attacks compared to the newly revealed characters.

[Orrax]

They don't seem to be aging up the characters at all. Well, whatever.

lol Potemkin

[Zazz]

Potemkin looks like Panzerfaust and even got a big (mike) Z on his chest.

Its like Daisuke saw the Skullgirls campaign and thought: "those are some friggin' cool designs . . ."

[suna19]

I'm assuming the insignia is the emblem of the assassin's guild

[LeonD]

Its like Daisuke saw Skullgirls campaign and thought: "those are some friggin' cool designs . . ."

Yep, definitely SG-ish, in general.

[Rhiya]

The circle is complete.

Daisuke has influenced Mike Z has influenced Daisuke.

[syzm]

Seeing May should rule out the chance of Bridget having grown into a big burly dude.

[Starlight777]

Bridget confirmed for aging backwards like May.
