I could see them making Dark Force effects a spendable meter option like Ulatras from SF4 as the comeback mechanic. Slightly better than Ultras in that they are just big damage moves to throw out but something that can give you an edge if you’re down.
Not that I necessarily want a comeback mechanic but it’s likely inevitable.
It could work, but I personally prefer original creations based on horror characters than the actual characters. For example making Victor a knockoff and not the actual monster allowed them to add the electric attacks and body morphing. So personally I would prefer a cthulhu knockoff over the real thing honestly (wouldn’t complain if he did show up though). Would be a good final boss though, maybe that could be what that fetus Jedah was raising turns into or something.
Buffed Mummy, buffed Victor and slightly buffed Jedah. Make Talbain less stupid and continue with the cartoon horror. Restrict pushblock to piano technique with five buttons instead of six since most modern controllers use triggers which makes piano technique really hard to do fully. Keep the current stock system over rounds, keep supers barely cinematic and keep the gameplay fast paced.
Fix Gallon’s fucking Million Flicker (rdp nunchaku). Restore mp, fp, and ex versions back to Nightwarriors animation, and keep the lame slow flail VS animation for the jab version (for destroying projectiles). Vampire Savior RUINED that move.
Hell almost all the clothing is literally just painted onto the model itself, Cody is proof of this.

You can see the literal points in the model where they were just like ‘fuck it, each part of this shit is getting a paint job, then we’ll stick sleeves on the end’.
Viper is another story too, her model is SF4 is fucking atrocious.
Lei Lei is a hopping vampire and that was something that was BIG in Asia around the 80’s to mid 90’s. It’s distinctly Chinese: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jiang_Shi
Your original post made it seem as though the entire roster is made specifically for the Asian culture. You gave one valid example and the other is a reach. Hardly the entire roster or even approaching half my man.
