I admit, the idea of one of the nameless punks Ryu sliced up coming back and trying to kick his ass (and apparently coming pretty close) is interesting.

Plus Yaiba has way more of a personality than almost any other Ninja Gaiden villain.

[up][up]

From what I can recall, Yaiba only had the advantage because he already died twice in his fight against Ryu & Momiji nearly fell of a cliff & he had to save her.

[up]

I find that to be very subjective, but for the life of me I can't remember any antagonist from the series.


The whole reason why I want Yaiba to be in the DOA 6 is mostly to have more antagonizing characters. Christie is the only re occurring bad guy besides Rig & that's recently. The majority of the bass are dead unless they really are going to bring back Raidou, Tengu, & Genra/Omega. Although Raidou does have pretty solid chance considering he's a cyborg & his connection to Honoka (whatever the hell it is). You think Bayman would be one of the badguys considering his occupation but he really isn't. Phase-4 will probably get involve in some way or form but she's kind of repetitive being another clone of Kasumi. And I thought Kyo has it bad.

I will say it's high time for Dovovan to make his debut, it's been nearly over 2 decades & only a select few interact has actually interact with the Big Bad.

Donovan is unique among fighting game villains in that he isn't a fighter himself. His threat level comes from his money, resources, knowledge and preparation. Having him fight the heroes would just make him no different from any other video game bad guy.

You know what, that's legit. I rather have the opportunity to punch him in the face, but after reading your comment I would be ok if he wasn't playable.

I swear if Tifa doesn't show up this time

[up] You know that reminds me, as we're talking about fighting games and guest characters, let me tell you all a history lesson:

Two decades ago, we had a fighting game named Ehrgeiz. The protagonist was surnamed "Mishima" and it also involved an evil organization. Now, why is that important? Because that game had Final Fantasy VII guest characters in it.

Looks at the character page.

So not only was the main character named Ken his nickname was "God Hand"?

Yea, it was......something.

Not that I'm going to complain, but why would Tifa randomly be in DOA? That would be a major hassle for Team Ninja to get that kind of character.

I was going to say "boobs" but DOA isn't going for that crowd this time around.

She is a martial artist and DOA has had a Spartan before so Tifa wouldn't be too out of pl...

-runs to the Tekken 7 thread to bring that point up-

No, she fits in for sure, but from what I've been hearing SE is incredibly stingy about these kind of things. If anything else Tecmo might have more to lose than to gain. Then again, it's not like I know how much budget goes into these kind of things.

I'm kind of surprised to hear that given Kingdom Hearts borrows several Final Fantasy characters and... well Flanderizes the heck out of them.

Tifa wouldn't be hard to get like at all...

Its like you guys forget the whole intro to the current version of Dissidia is done by Team Ninja and Koei-Tecmo

I actually did, but doesn't mean it's any easier to use her. I would love to eat my words on that.

RE Tifa in DOA: I assumed it was because she fought alongside Yuna, Rikku, Kairi and Rinoa against Kasumi, Ayane, Hitomi and Rachel in Dead Fantasy.

Team Ninja help develop Dissidia NT, so Tifa inclusion wouldn't be all that surprising.

And honestly, I wouldn't mind seeing Monty Oum's fan work become an actual thing to play out.

Tifa in Dead or Alive might be the closest we get to seeing an ending to Final DEAD Fantasy as well.

Cleared that up.

I blame everyone but me.

I did a bunch of mental laps trying to figure out if you were making a joke about Final Fantasy 7 ending on Advent Children while Dirge of Cereberus left a bunch of dangling plot threads.

Then I realized you might have just meant Dead Fantasy.

Whoa whoa whoa go check out dead fantasy on youtube right now.

It was made by the late Monty Oum, aka creator of RWBY.

I had a lot of fun with that

Even during his last years, I don’t think he was going to go back to it, understandable with the projects he was on

Just a side work he liked to play with

Yea, it was really cool.

A damn shame it'll never finish.

I still think Monty Oum is one of the most inspiring men out there. Even if he's no longer with us.

I’ve always respected his fight choreography

I remember the buzz during one of Red vs Blue’s seasons where Tex comes back and she just stomps on everyone. Hella lots of hype all around that Oum was part of Roosterteeth

So what are the odds of Rachel and Momiji returning?
