Daishi_Odashima: Hint: Has something to do with the title I suggested instead of SC. RT @JakajanTiamu: Any hints to what will replace Fatal finishes?
… For those of you who didn’t know, he wanted to call this game “Soul Edge 2,” but Namdai rejected the idea.
They need to give these people movesets for unarmed combat. And do something realistic, like unarmed strikes when blocked by a weapon cause damage to the attacker. Blocking a weapon when unarmed causes damage. Parries/guard impacts become special throws/takedowns when unarmed, and don’t cause any damage to the performer, unlike just blocking. Parries/guard impacts against an unarmed opponent result in a reversal, changing from a parry into a weapon-based throw or short autocombo.
