R1 Hate

Post by Tolby »

Or maybe its just R2 love. I had written this long bawfest, but I'll narrow it down to this.

R1: only the most essential characters with maybe a couple of bones thrown. (Mistral and Silver Knight. The latter would have been a terrible tasting bone had he not sunk to and even worse pathetic state than in GIFT)

R2: Same as above with tons of bones thrown.

Alkaid (Guess can be the Mistral)
Silabus (The Silver Knight, just for number sake)
Saku and Bo (could have been one or even none considering the lack of R1 characters)
Kaede
Azure Kite (Guess is ok because of Helba)
Zelkova (Or maybe this is the one that ok because of Helba, certainly not both)
B-st Haseo (Guess is ok because of Cubia)
Midori (Maybe they thought of Albireo, but he should have been in anyways. They should have though Karl)
Sakaki

Cut the fat. Kaede, Zelkova, Midori, Sakaki, at least half of Sakubo

Or give us BT, Bear, Karl, Crim, and random .hacker like Ryoko.

I can't believe I'm in full agreement with you here. I would've rather had Gardenia or Rachel than Silabus.

I would've so wanted Gardenia in the game.
Then again, since R2 is latest to Link, I guess it was in their best interest adding more of what the young people are familiar with.

Oh and about Bear. I mean Bear needed to be in this game.

He might have only really been in SIGN as a central character, but he was a central character. He was like a father to both Tsukasa and Mimiru. He had relationships with the entire cast, was wise, we where given good insight to his character he was important. He definitely deserves to be in it over a lot of the R2 characters that were chosen.

I also feel fairly strongly about the "random .hacker". Yes its "random" because alone none of them were all that important. They had development and history thanks to guidebooks and e-mails, but I admit they weren't that important. But if I was Tokio I would love to chill out with a random support .hacker instead of just Blackrose and Kite. I would love them too of course. I would feel less strongly about this if they had cut all the G.U. fat like I said before though.

As much of a G.U. fanboiy as I am, I agree. I'd gladly trade Tabby, Silabus, Alkaid, and Sakaki for Crimm, Bear, Maybe B.T.....

Hell, I'd trade those 4 for Crimm and Bear alone.

I completely forgot about useless Tabby. Theres another one. I guess shes there to thicken the roots lineup but shes a Mistral as well.


I noticed Nova too, that annoyed me actually. Chimney is back with his R1 design, so should NOVA.



Also, I second Henako as random npc on the field. Though one random random with a new design for partner would be awesome. 1/2, Henako, Butt Rice. One of those as a UPC would have been cool.

In all seriousness, some of the NPCs DO deserve to be there more than the characters that were chosen....

The least they could have done was make the playable characters equal from both eras but there about 7 more from R:2, I was angered by the R:1 playable character selections.

the 2:3 ratio makes sense, there were simply more characters in G.U....

True but there were more characters in R:1 that were more relevant than some of the choices from the R:2 characters.
