Plus, Mori's team at ASW have done an adaptation before with Persona 4 Arena, and they let Atlus write that one, for better or for worse.

[up]I thought the story for Persona 4 Arena was pretty good.

Arena is pretty good.

Ultimax is terrible, and wastes all the potential Arena set up as well as throwing away the hints of connection to the first two Persona games.

I don't blame the writers too much though, as I think the problem was they were abruptly told to cut all refrences to previous Persona's and also to wrap up the story quickly from higher up because they want to wrap 4 down to focus on 5.

I've seen an analysis that stated that Ultimate suffered due to not only the main writers being pre-occupied with Persona 5, but also that there were 6-8 writers on that game, turning it into an inconsistent mess.

With a RWBY fighter, they would either do an original story that's non canon, or a retelling of Volumes 1-3, possibly with enough alterations to make it their own canon. Since really, making it a separate continuity that's still linked to the canonical events, albeit altered to fit the medium, would allow for the most freedom with what they can do with the characters.

Arc System Works also did Guilty Gear Xrd, didn't they?

You guys prefer 3D ls from Xrd 2D sprites of Blazblue?

So, I've done more thinking on RWBY characters in D&D/Pathfinder:

  • Jaune: Fighter
  • Nora: Bloodrager (Stormborn Bloodline)note 
  • Ren: Monk/Rogue
  • Pyrrha: Warpriest with the Metal subdomain
  • Glynda: Arcanist
  • Cardin: Fighter
  • Coco: Gunslinger (Siege Gunner)
  • Fox: Monk/Rogue
  • Velvet: Monk/Wizard(?)
  • Yasuhashi: Fighter
  • Qrow and Raven: Fighter or Slayer
  • Ironwood: Gunslinger (Pistolero)
  • Winter: Rogue/Duelist, with a few levels in Summoner
  • Sun: Monk/Gunslinger
  • Scarlet: Swashbuckler
  • Sage: Fighter
  • Neptune: Gunslinger(?)
  • Cinder: Pyrokineticist
  • Emerald: Wizard (Illusionist)/Rogue
  • Adam: Samurai (Sword Saint)
  • Roman: Seems like a Rogue, or possibly an Investigator to me.
  • Junior: Fighter
  • The Twins: Monk

Ozpin's very difficult as we haven't really seen him actually fight.

Ozpin is that one NPC who is helpful for you but will automatically kick your ass if you try to attack him.

Imagine if we got some "new RWBY charcters in the fighting" like Aeon from Judgement. Actually it would be cool if we got Future Jaune as the catalyist for the plot (Inspired by Dishwater's Design)

[up][up][up] Ironwood and Glynda are the descendants of Ozpin's old roleplay group.

Speculation.

The WoR episode on Dust told us that people can fuse dust with their bodies. Who do we think has Dust in their bodies?

I'm going to start with Ironwood. My guess is that for him to function with such an extreme split between metal and man, he's got to have lots of Dust fused with his body to make it happen.

Erm...

Penny is completely mechanical and doesn't seem to need Dust.

Neither does Mercury, who's got both legs replaced by prosthetics.

I highly doubt Ironwood needs to infuse himself with Dust.

#35393: May 23rd 2016 at 1:39:16 PM

[up] Take a look at Penny's broken body in the arena. There are Dust crystals inside her body - green ones. We have no idea how Mercury's legs mechanical legs work. However, since you bring it up, I include Mercury with Ironwood in my speculation - for a similar reason, although he at least doesn't have a split between man and machine that raises the question of how he's even alive.

@Will De Regio & Wyldchild I'd want to see Violent Penny as an alter character. Aka: Penny as essentially SFV Nash.

I'd be down with Yang having a mechanic similar to Lucario's, the more hits she takes, the bigger her buffs.

So I watched Chibi RWBY episode 2.

Oh man, this episode is way funnier than the first one. I found every one of skits hilarious. I feel that this episode was very Blake-centric. [lol]

Continuously reading, studying, and (hopefully) growing.
