That's not true. If you choose to customize a character, and then choose to customize the colours of that character's 2P, you can see there's a clear difference in quality, especially with all the shadows. Technically, there's 2 versions of every 2P in the game. One version which is a single model and is in higher quality, and the CAS version which is in individual parts. The single model version also detailed variations for armour break.

Oh yeah Link was the man. If memory serves he had this one grab that tossed guys behind him, so if you were at the edge of the arena with a little risk you could get real easy ring outs. Not to mention how cool his projectiles were.
He may have been a little overpowered but I don't care, I mostly play against the CPU anyway.

As long as my main man Siegfried is there I have no qualms. I've been knocking the schtauffen out of opponents with him since he was just a wee nipper in SoulBlade.
Damn it, that was really good. lol
This may be the first time I spend more time using the 2P costume than 1P. Because Hilde's is pretty damn awesome.

There is an alternate version of Pyrrha called Pyrrha Omega that is literally just Sophitia in terms of moveset.

Can't wait to see how they managed to screw Raphael further this time around.

OK that may be true. However I still feel there's a difference in quality between the 1P outfits and the 2P outfits.
She looked to have some Cass moves as well...don't know who's closer to Sophi

I was under the impression that the female edgemaster variation is sophitia. elysium or something.
btw how does the new main character play? the son of sophitia? another sophitia/cassandra/lizardman style character? I think it is getting out of hand with those, if true
and: is this coming to vita? I know there is a rumor about a 3ds version, but i am not sure about vita

Oh! Very nice OP.
Yes, and you can select any BGM you want during the stage select screen, it seems.

Thanks for the kind words, guys. So glad that my first OT got to be for one of my favorite series. ^^
I like Mitsu and all... but it's true, haha! His path never directly crosses with the swords.
Yup, 50%.

Great OP!
Pretty sure I've read every page on this game on GAF and was not informed the game has 50 (!!!!) player lobbies, replays that autosave and ghost data based on top players. I did see endless pages on how this looks just like SC4 and constant bitching about Kilik. Thanks, GAF!

Now I just need to figure out which character bounces around the most...
But, at least, in the original SoulCalibur, his bio stated that his lifelong goal was to develop a way to defeat bullets. And he did that in the intro of SoulCalibur 2, and therefore I was happy for him
Kinda went off-track after that...Voldo.

You're picking SC4 custom characters who were especially made to look out of place though. Look at the story mode only characters or most of the customs seem in the Tower, they were mostly pretty decent, even if generic sometimes.
Here's a quick example. Azola, a story mode-only enemy who was based on a discarded design from Soul Blade. She was made entirely with custom parts:

Because in Soul Blade he was shot with Tanegashima. Still has that wound.
Then I don't know what happened but definitely something trippy as he was fighting Darth Vader last time I saw him.

Patroklos has an all new style, he is not like Sophitia or Cassandra at all. Lizardman (Aeon) also has an all new style, so he isn't like he used to be.
In other news, new gameplay videos:

Wow. Such a great discrepancy between 2D and 3D. Namco 3D team needs to do something.

No bullshit, he essentially said "Fuck looking for a magic shortcut. I'll become so badass that it won't matter what the hell my opponent is using." His only concern is finding a decent challenge and pursued the wielder of the swords to just to fight them. This is was essentially backed up when he fought Algol to a standstill using a plain ol' katana.But, at least, in the original SoulCalibur, his bio stated that his lifelong goal was to develop a way to defeat bullets.

I think it's more that the 2d version is a low res screencap and it's using a different colorset, but it's still hard to say.

Is that in his story? The only thing I remember right now of his new story is something about a guy calling himself his brother or something.

It's silly to me that people are like, "My out of place character isn't as silly as THAT out of place character."
Light Sabers or a random elf walking around holding a bomb over his head. All looks stupid to me.
Ezio is a great fit, though.
This is basically how I feel.
I dont get it. im talking gameplay.

Nice vids. Good play.
"I'm soooorry!
"Yeah right."
English voices still pretty bad mostly.
Im bitter about Takis removal
I dont care if shes 50 and I dont care if she still wears skin tight body suits.
I hope Natsu is just as cool. Im not too crazy about the way she looks.
Cameltoe to the knees.
Pancake boobs wiping the floor.
Ah I thought you were talking about appearances
I just wanted to post a couple of what her omega form looks like if that was the case.
I've looked at a bunch of videos of both and I kinda get the impression they both are primarily based on Sophitia.
From the moves I've seen so far I'd say that normal Pyrrha mostly has new moves, a bunch of Sophitia's moves and a few of Cassandra's moves. While Omega Pyrrha has very few moves, a ton of moves from Sophitia and some moves from Cassandra.
So omega is the closest you'll get to Cassandra in the game, but she still is more like Sophitia.
Oh wow, I cant wait... Ezio actually changed from "meh" into "well, I will have to try him out as well" category after that montage. Great.
