You know, I really tried hard to not look at this thread, 'cause I hate spoilers. But, after some accidental reading on the plot elsewhere, I kinda gave up.
Hell, maybe it's just me, but even canon pairings don't fit right with me (Like Zato and Millia, or Slayer and Sharon). Guess it's the whole "I perceive the character as a fighter, not really as a human." Case in point?
I can't imagine Venom buying groceries, Ky doing taxes, or Baiken sleeping, you know?
Well, this game'll at least be worth a buy for the fighting system, but I'm a bit put-off by the storyline thus far. I've resisted watching any (more) videos of it, but I hear the music's goin' to be stellar, which is a definite plus.
EDIT: Ack, you're right Mitsurugi! D: Sorry-sorry!
