Last I checked, champions don’t bitch and moan every time they lose.
Champions of moaning do.
Anyway, this seems like a step forward, releasing DS3, but the PSX port is ungood…
When you’re as good as Sanford is at all the games he is, he’s earned his right to bitch and moan. And if the nigga thinks the game is ass why can’t eh say that?
Just ignore Sho Nuff. He honestly believes you need to be good at the game in order to call it ass. I mean, he could say the opinion of a game is subjective or everyone has their own preference but no, if you don’t like a game, it’s because you’re ass at it.
Surely if you liked the game, you’d play it and get good at it but guess that makes too much sense 
Real talk
Morrigan is ass
ASS AND TITTAYZ
but liek srsly
I’d like to see Darkstalkers in the capable hands of Arc System Works I believe they can do the series justice better than present-day Capcom can not just in gameplay but in design and aesthetics as well
I don’t see why people think Aksys making the game would automatically make the game good. I don’t doubt their game-making abilities, but I don’t feel they’d get the feel of the system right; it’s different from DS. I’m not sure if the old Dirty Beret guys even get their hands on with the games anymore or if all of them work there (if they do, though, correct me).
Aesthetically… eh. I don’t like to bring up old topics that end up just spiraling into pointless debate, but their stuff truly is more “anime” and doesn’t match the feel of the DS series. Not saying Capcom would do an amazing job right now either, but if I were to see a new game, I’d want it to be from a more capable Capcom.
You mean the Capcom from back in the 90s?
I’m not even sure they exist anymore.
Of course they don’t. But who’s to say someone with a good vision takes over the project (not likely right now, but it’s possible)?
Point is, I don’t think letting Arc work on it is the best idea. Could work as a good game, but I don’t think it would be Darkstalkers.
I believe old capcom empoyees now work at aksys. I heard someone say that.
If you haven’t played the game at its highest level your missing out on the point of a competitive fighting game.
I dont respect the opinions of people who just bitch and complain about things without knowing whats up in a game.
This is true. Some old Capcom (and SNK) employees also work at Dimps. Though I don’t think that alone means they make a new game
Not really their either working at Crafts & Meister or Arika. or they’re retired.
Akiman and Bengus were responsible for the artistic design of Capcom’s arcade games from Final Fight to Street Fighter Alpha and neither of them work in the industry anymore. Bengus did all of the character designs and main illustrations for DarkStalkers. None of the pseudo-2D art coming out of SNK and Arc Sys (their artists trace over 3D models) is in the same league.
Bengus did some art for MvC3 if I recall correctly.
There’s also the matter of whoever drew the Darkstalkers character cards in UMvC3, Demitri’s card looks like official art for a DS4.
EDIT: Someone said on Cross Assault Ono confirmed/teased SF5 in the next 4-5 years and that his team is working on a “special project” right now. It is most likely Darkstalkers.
Yeah, he did a piece of promotional art for MvC3, but he didn’t work on the game.
Capcom would be insane not to hire him to do design work on DarkStalkers 4, even if it’s in a freelance capacity. Just having him sketch characters and levels on paper would be a tremendous improvement over allowing Dimps to handle the design work. They can do the grunt work, but they need a real artist to guide them or else we’ll end up with Man Hands Morrigan mirror matches on Volcano Stage 2.
Ditto, I really do hope Capcom gets in contact with Bengus to help out with DS4.
I personally hope the visual style they go for looks something like this:
Just remember, this is Capcom. When you think it’s Darkstalkers, it usually isn’t.
Lore question: If we were to see an older Anita in DS4, would this mean older Cecil would play a big role too? He seems to be about the same age as Anita. He also has the power to take over the entire planet with a Phobos/Huitzil army, though he doesn’t seem malevolent at all.
I have a good feeling this time.
I said this last time too. 
I thought it was foreshadowed Cecil would become the ruler of the Earth in the future.
I could get behind an older Anita in DS4 though, her ending with Dee was a big tease.
Ace’s genuine excitement makes my heart melt haha. I’ve been more excited about DS recently now that I’ve learned more of Lei Lei’s pendulum stuff so I ordered the softcover Tribute book(already got the Graphic file and the hardcover tribute is kinda expensive). There are so many awesome ways for DS to be drawn or modeled that it boggles the mind.
boggles
I guess this comes down to how badly you want Sprites(even if they aren’t 100% sprites). I’d totally be willing to give 2.5D and 2D a fair shake, but Capcom doesn’t make sprite stuff anymore and the only good looking stuff they have is coming from Marvel vs Capcom.
