GEKKA Report post Posted January 14, 2016 While I'm happy that I saw the new opening, it was... vastly underwhelming. That said, I dunno what I was expecting really. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Calamitus Report post Posted January 14, 2016 Well, i dont think ArcSys is rich enough to make 3 completely different trailers for a single game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zedar90 Report post Posted January 14, 2016 3 completely new openings within 4(?) months? I didn't expect that to happen at all. The opening was like I expected it to be. Nine's quotes in the beginning changed into quotes from Izanami(?). The summary is from Act 1 instead of CP. Nine's place is replaced by Izanami, and the images from Act 1 have been replaced but images from Act 2. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tokkan Report post Posted January 14, 2016 Also, at the beginning a hole in the embryo just exploded (didn't happen in Act 1 OP). All the character quotes are changed (Noel and Mu appear to have met each other...). "Exceed the Limit" became "You can not exceed the Limit". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Danaiden Report post Posted January 14, 2016 There are two more little changes which I have noticed: The embryo in the back ground during the scene with Rachel after Naoto has cracks everywhere (In the first opening it was completely dark) (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KmwsGeiV1F4#t=39s) Naoto has white hair and red eyes, so using Bloodedge, now when he fights Ragna Spoiler Act 2: Act 1: Also these are the colors which will be available during the XBlaze event which takes place from January the 15th till January the 24th: Spoiler Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JustaMaskedFreak Report post Posted January 16, 2016 Well, now that we have the possibility of Izanami being confirmed as a character on the roster, I think we can speculate a little about her gameplay itself... She is, as we remember from CP, a short character, what should make her normals lack some range, unless she has something up in her sleeve. And the fact of being death herself, looks like her gameplay would be like chipping away her opponent's HP, like a poison, or maybe even having some sort of Distortion Drive that is instant kill, like Elizabeth (Persona 4 Arena) Mahamaon or Mamudoon... and those giant orbs from CP Highlander Assault... Now, about Characters... we have all the main antagonists set up in these two acts, so someone gonna make its debut in the game for the act 3, and I don't think it is Jubei, because if Mori will add him, probably will be in the console release...

Volt Report post Posted January 16, 2016 Her being short doesn't really mean much. She can use magic, so she can put some artificial reach in her normals. I think she'll focus on space control considering those orbs in CP, maybe she'll use small versions of those. I just hope she's not too short to combo properly, because dropping a combo on the Arcade Boss does not feel good. At all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Poultrygeist Report post Posted January 16, 2016 What I want: Long ranged gorilla normals that involve skeletal arms coming through portals, attacks (drive or otherwise) that summon ghosts and skeletons/zombies, poison status effects What I'm probably going to get: Generic dark magic and yet another trap/setplay character How come they don't want me man?

Juraya Report post Posted January 16, 2016 Well regarding gameplay I´d rather say we can expect anything. Don´t forget that in the teaser she seems to have some kind of battle form, so we can´t really debate on anything, can we? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tokkan Report post Posted January 16, 2016 I'm half expecting Izanami to play similarly to A.B.A given the technique she apparently taught to Relius. However, I don't think there's enough info to continue with this discussion about her potential playstyle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SoWL Report post Posted January 16, 2016 All I can hope for is that she's not yet another Murakumo unit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Volt Report post Posted January 16, 2016 I just noticed, what's going on with her left foot in the picture? Looks like Phantom's Arm Bandage thingy. Freaky. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

By skimpy you mean that she's going to have patches of 2spooky skeleton and ghost shit where her skin would be right? Like a certain other Izanami? Please tell me you do.

GEKKA Report post Posted January 16, 2016 I'm hoping that she is wearing pants at the very least. It looks like a skin tight suit to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I imagined that line spoken in Will Smith's voice XD. But on the subject of potential things, that circular object behind her has me intrigued. My first instinct was to recall the nutjob Tira from Soul Calibur. But something tells me that, if this turns out to be Imperator/Izanami (even though it's pretty damn obvious she is), she won't be doing insane hula-hoop tricks and cackling like a loon. Just 12 more days though and we will get to see Act 2 (or earlier if there is a stream happening in celebration). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They should give her scythe, summons and traps, I bet Testament doesn't mind since he will never be playable again anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
