Hypothetically should another darkstalkers game ever be made, what would you want from it?

First the team.

Art/Character design=Ayami Kojima

Music=Michiru Yamane

Note: This team worked wonders in the the Iga Castlevanias.

Devs, programmers, storywriters= The original Darkstalkers team

Basics…

6 button system

Dark Forces return but no overlapping ones.

2d 1080p HD sprites and backgrounds

Speed similar to Vampire Savior and 2 life bar system returns

Music played by live instruments (orchestra, electric instruments, etc.)

An extensive storymode with voiceacting by top actors

Every character would have his/her own stage

GGPO Online with double blind ranked matches

am not sure if this thread will be locked or merged, but, anyway, here it goes:

what would be ideal:

2D animation with detailed HD sprites on par with Skullgirls
good voice acting by experienced actors and 2D animation
music as you mentioned with original tracks or HQ remixes
GGPO or any other custom network code allowing good netplay
gather the original experienced team or some of them, since a lot would have been retired or left
player support and testing

what will happen:

bad 2.5d animation and design ala SF4, MvC3, SFxTekken
bad voice acting with bad CGI in-game animation like in SF4, MvC3, SFxTekken
crap music remixes and trash tracks like with SF4, MvC3, SFxTekken
bad network code like with SF4, MvC3, SFxTekken, plus you’ll also pay a monthly fee for PSN and Xbox Live
gather inexperienced or underpaid developers without many demands to reduce developing costs and experimentation
capcom will not listen and do what they want with irrelevant patches, just to say they update the game

Please reread the FGD rules. I believe there’s a Darkstalker thread you could resurrect that might be a better place to embed this conversation within. :slight_smile:
