NyanRider Report post Posted June 13, 2016 On 10/6/2016 at 6:54 PM, Kenji Harima said: I am afraid that Taro thanks to his abilities might become a mid-range zoner (similiar to Amane) or some combination between zoner and grappler (BlazBlue doesn't have that kind of character). In the first case we have several zoners: Lambda, Mu, Nu, Amane, Rachel and mixed one Litchi (I have excluded chars with projectile moves) so I think it's enough? The second seems to be little more interesting: Taro would be able to pull enemies by his strings from med/long distance and do some special throws, chain throws (depends from meter), shock them with electricity etc. However these "pulling-moves" shouldn't be able to block/cancel too easy. Another grappler who is potentially faster, more agile and more universal than Tager would be fresh. I like to have Taro ingame too and i want him to be Trap Zoner with mid range slow move. And 3 variable unblockable pulling-move special that unsave even in max range ( opp will recovery first) deal no dam but you can commbo off it with 50 meter or pulling opp to your set trap to continue combo or setplay. But grappler zoner are cool too. I think Killer Instict have one character like that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zedar90 Report post Posted June 13, 2016 BlazBlue Central Fiction's Japanese release date is October the 6th, according to Dengeki. Screencap in case of it being a mistake to mention now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kosmos badgirl Report post Posted June 13, 2016 So October like vanilla CP. I have zero hopes this will be released this year in the west, specially not with the amount of text the game will have. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tokkan Report post Posted June 13, 2016 Vanilla CP is weird to me because a lot of comments from voice actors at the time would imply the English dub for it was completed before the game even came out in Japan. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BB has a history of completing the English battle voices (and battle voices only) prior to the Japan release because the game needs to have them to be able to play with someone who selects them in another region later. Which I've always felt was silly, but that might be what you are thinking of? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Like Amanda C. Miller (Nine) did if I recall correctly, though at the time she couldn't reveal what character she voiced.

That's what everybody always said about every game, ever. I don't think it will be different from what any other BlazBlue was handled like. Edit: I wouldn't mind being wrong.

AchedSphinx Report post Posted June 14, 2016 Sweet. I'm glad we have a release date now but I hope the NA/EU version is reasonably close. I'm not hardcore enough to keep up with the series like I used to but I do want to see how Ragna's story ends this time around and I can't do that with the Japanese version. Here's to hoping Aksys pulls through. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Are you going to put the "Story" in the CF Plot Thread like you did in GGXrd??? I suppose that you will be one of the first on the forum who will obtain Japanese version.

Kan-Ra Another example similiar to my vision is Omega Red from Capcom's "Children of the Atom" or "Marvel Super Heroes". Generally Scorpion from the MK is an archetype of "pulling" characters thanks to his Kunai.

So if anyone wants to avoid spoilers, don't go anywhere near the story thread at release and press on my spoiler tags(will use them until at least the NA release).
