History PlayingWith / GuestFighter

* '''Exaggerated''': The roster of ''Destiny Duel II'' consists of 30 characters, out of which only 5 characters are original, the rest are guest characters from ''Generic Fighter III'' (Again, Darrin and Stella), ''Cruisin' and Bruisin' in New York'' ([[BoisterousBruiser Nico Forelli]] and [[ArrogantKungfuGuy Xian]]), and even non Fighting Games such as the ''Tales of Troperia'' series, which are all [[RolePlayingGame RPGs]] (featuring their classic RivalFinalBoss Claidheamh), and ''Super Troper Land'', a Mario-styled PlatformGame, among others.

* '''Parodied''': Darrin is a CreatorCameo, who paid a lot of money so the developers included him in ''Destiny Duel II'', because he wanted them to make him a Badass... And he got what he asked for, they made him "Bad" and a "Joke".

* '''Downplayed''': ''Destiny Duel'' I - V never have had guest characters, and Darrin ocasionally appears as a background NPC, but finally, in ''Destiny Duel VI'' Darrin appears as the only guest character in a cast of 40 fighters.

** It's made clear that the rules and gameplay of ''Destiny Duel II'' are different from those of ''Generic Fighter III''; because of this, when Darrin makes his guest appearance, [[CantCatchUp he's at a very low level compared to the rest of the cast]], and he gets demoted to JokeCharacter status, [[TierInducedScrappy keeping fans from choosing him]] in TournamentPlay.
** Alternatively, when Darrin makes his guest appearance, he's at a very high level compared to the other characters, so he becomes a GameBreaker, gets banned from TournamentPlay, [[TierInducedScrappy gaining the hatred of his fans.]]

* '''Played For Laughs''': ''Destiny Duel II'' is LighterAndSofter compared to ''Generic Fighter III'', so, when an [[UpToEleven Ultra]] {{Badass}} [[TheStoic stoic]] [[AntiHero Darrin]] makes his guest apearance, he finds it hard to adapt to the [[{{Camp}} campiness]] and silliness of this new setting, [[HilarityEnsues with hilarious results]].

** [[TheRival Fred]] appears in ''Destiny Duel II'' as a [[DownloadableContent DLC]] character by popular demand. He doesn't have a prominent role, even a chapter in the Story Mode of the game. He just doesn't appear anywhere within the story. But he's not exactly a guest character because he's part of the world of the franchise after all.

* '''Justified''': ''Generic Fighter III'' and ''Destiny Duel II'' take place in the same universe, so, both games donating Guest Fighters to each other comes as no surprise.

* '''Discussed''': "Did you know that Darrin was invited to compete in the new Destiny Duel tournament?"
* '''Conversed''': "Darrin, you have been chosen to represent your region in the ''Destiny Duel'' tournament. Do you have what it takes?"

** Alternatively, Darrin returns again as a guest character in ''Destiny Duel IV'', where it's revealed that he was slacking off, and did nothing to improve between games, whereas the other characters were training, and caught on with him. So, this time, he appears as a BoringButPractical Mid-Tier, and regaining the love (Or hatred, depending of your interpretation) of his fans.
