Ain’t much of an utopia if you’re the only person in it.
The only thing that ‘canonically’ happened in VSav was that Morrigan and Lilith became one. Not even the outcome of their fight is made clear, just that they became one. Despite all the shit going down in VSav, this is the only thing that officially happened. Just like in VHunter, the only thing that officially happened was that Demitri absorbed Pyron’s power, stripping away his vulnerability to sunlight. And VHunter was a retcon of the original Vampire, so nothing happened in that game.
While it’s pretty likely that Jedah is dead - he was dead before hand. He’s the Lord of Resurrection - like a metal version of Jesus. You can’t keep him down.
I was working on a Beats of Rage mod based on Darkstalkers, using a lot of the lore from it. The main villian I was going for was Galnan Voshtal, one of the three Lords of the Makai along with Belial Aensland and Jedah Domah. He was also the oldest of them, the most cunning (using just about anything as a spy, as he was able to take over the nervous system of just about anything - earning him the nickname “The Brain of the Makai”), and the most brutal. He died several thousand years before Darkstalkers even happened, but he definitely has the ingredients for a great final boss. I personally would imagine he’d look a lot like Scion from Red Earth - especially seeing as Scion’s second form was a giant, menacing floating brain, which would perfectly fit “The Brain of the Makai”.
I don’t recall anywhere hearing that Anakaris, Demitri, or Lord Raptor died. It’s implied through Victor and Donovan’s endings that both of them died, but most of the endings will likely not be considered canon. Bishamon (the monk) also defeated the armor and sword who posessed him in his ending, but again, the ending may not be canon - and even if it were, it was heavily implied that the cursed duo were still at large.
And hey, even if Donovan and Bishamon (Armor) don’t show up, we might instead have Anita and Bishamon (Monk) as playable characters. That could be badass as hell.
Isn’t Oboro Bish supposed to be the monk in control of the armor/sword?
It’s implied in Bish’s VSav ending that the armor still lives on and will come back some day as well.
I don’t remember Anak dying anywhere either. His mummy form is what he uses to travel through time or something (EBound-style? No organic form). Zabel got blown’d up in his ending, but his head stil talks, so who knows. I thought I remember it being implied that Jedah wiped the floor with Demitri at some point, but then again I don’t know any specific moments.
Considering Zabel was still talking after he got blown up, I’d say he definitely is still around. The only thing I can think of that might imply that Jedah fought Demitri is that Demitri is the final boss when you play as Jedah. Personally, I wouldn’t consider that to be evidence of anything - they just likely didn’t want to have Jedah fight himself and they thought Demitri made the most sense as a final boss.
Oboro Bishamon is the monk in control of the armor/sword - but seriously, that was lazy as fuck. I wanna play as the monk, not a brown version of Bish.
Can the actual monk fight? Be interesting if he could.
Dude, he’s a monk. Of course he can fight. Has anime and cheesy martial arts flicks taught you nothing?
But he’s one of those sissy peaceful monks. I’m afraid Wolf is the closest we’ll get to cheesy Hong Kong Cinema…
(Being facetious for anyone who get upset at me calling pacifism sissy. Because it will happen.)
did VS have button dashing or stick dashing
Its stick only.
Even peaceful monks at least know self-defense. You can’t tell me he doesn’t know how to whoop ass with that big ass stick of his. Plus he probably has some, like, holy magic and shit. Nakoruru was was as peaceful as religious folk get and she was God Tier in CvS1.
Stick dashing.
Sokaku, anyone?
People feared caltrops when I played FF3.
I want this to be about a new Darkstalkers as much as I wanted to enjoy MVC3 and UMVC3, but this is Capcom, so…you know…

On topic: You’re all going to bitch about it not being VaSav, and continue playing on GGPO.
The world keeps on spinning.
Its just a trademark renewal not proof a game is being made. The only part that is being done is what ever is in the imagination of the future game director for the project the producer just tries to make that a reality. and all of this is if it gets the green light and enough funding.
I feel like stirring up some trouble.
"Vampire is 2D [sprites]. If they use 3D instead of sprites I feel they will lose their souls."
and that is a quote from one of the creators of the darkstalkers/vampire series.
^Damn. That’s some really harsh shit.
Where is that quote from?
One of the volumes of All About DCC.
Ah, thanks.
The DCC website has a massive amount of info, but it’s all in Japanese. It would be amazing if there were some way to read all of this accurately.
So much info…
How recent is this quote? I’m guessing it’s not very recent and he probably wouldn’t be able to say something like that if he worked at Capcom now…
