YOU HAVE NEVER BEEN GUARANTEED EVERY CHARACTER EVER MADE INTO THE ROSTER OF ANY FUCKING SEQUEL.
I literally never get mad at rosters because that’s how it has worked, that’s how it has always worked. Find somebody you enjoy playing or don’t play it. Its okay.
I imagine Darc yelling at everyone from his porch back when Soul Calibur 2 happened. “HOW DARE THEY PUT IN HEIHACHI, LINK AND SPAWN INTO THE GAME! WE COULD’VE HAD DIFFERENT, NEW CHARACTERS INSTEAD!”
Pertho, I played SF3 in the Arcade when the only returning characters were Ken and Ryu. I don’t care if every character returns to the roster. I never said that. I’ve never been one of those people. The issue I have is with Guest Characters. They are the literal definition of a wasted slot. Any slot taken by a character not from that games universe is a wasted slot. Give me a new or returning character from the actual franchise. Not guest characters. if want to have a bunch characters from different IPs make a crossover game. That’s what sub genre is for.
