at this point the only people who want a new vampire are fans of the look of the series or haven't been paying attention to capcom for the last decade. it serves no audience and shouldn't get made tbh. luckily it has less than zero chance of existing.

i think even roty knows capcom isn't up to the task
i want it but i have very little faith in Capcom these days. would feel better if they'd stop choosing Dimps
if MVCi doesn't deliver the FGC is in for some rough waters ahead

nah, just people who play capcom games
This, for like multiple reasons. My favorite one to talk about, visual design.

Try to imagine a Vampire Savior made by Ono.
Just for a second.
Just for a second.
I mean it kind of ruined that itself?
A lot of the visual design for stages and characters in those games are largely disorganized and I can only see a handful of those characters actually being sell able in a regard.
I'd sacrifice atleast a moderate amount of people for Rugal being the next guest character for Tekken 7

no one has confirmed. namco pr purposely dodged the question at a recent event. my guess is they have a timeline to release all that info and are holding off til then.
Didn't Harada say he wanted Geese?

ppl that want a new vsav or love it are the same ppl that think 3s is the best capcom fighting game ever made
Throwing epithets at VSav players like that is really goddamn rude. There may not be enough interest to justify a new game, but your comment was completely unnecessary.

people that want a new vampire aren't vsav players, it's ok

[QUOTE="God's Beard!";232657227]Ah you're right. These games have a ton of naming conventions going on.[/QUOTE]
Yeah. That whole series is a mess with what games were in it and what the differences were.
All that post took a LOT of rechecking to do. Good fucking luck finding a Darkstalkers game with the entire roster. Its a damned mess with all the "add it, remove it, exclusive it, dont rerelease it" stuff that went down.
Game series is great but man was it ever just a mishmash of roster fluctuations for some reason. Hard to keep that shit straight. Most folks have never even seen DEE.

- Darkstalkers 1 or Vampire the Night Warriors in japan
- Darkstalkers 2 or Vampire Hunter in japan
- Darkstalkers 3 or Vampire Savior in japan
Suddenly Japan only simultaneous releases only a few months after the 3rd game.
- Vampire Hunter 2 Darkstalkers Revenge (which omits all new cast from the 3rd title but has Oboro Bishamon and Shadow as secret characters, as well as Marionette )
- Vampire Savior 2 The Lord of the Vampire (has all the cast from the 3rd game that were added plus Donovan, Huitzil and Pyron but it OMITS Jon Talbain, Dark Talbain, Sasquatch and Rikuo and also has Oboro Bishamon and Shadow as secret characters, as well as Marionette )
- Darkstalkers Chronicle Chaos Tower for PSP and Dreamcast or as it was called in japan Vampire Chronicle for Matching Service (DC) /Vampire Chronicle: The Chaos Tower (PSP). Lets you play as all previous Darkstalker cast (I think. Oboro Bishamon and Dee are things I'm not sure on) and it lets you choose which moveset you wanna use for them from any of the previous releases.
- Vampire: Darkstalkers collection hits for PS2 in japan only. Has all the previous games like Chaos Tower did, but also Arranged Versions of all the Vampire games. Plus it adds the secret character DEE THE DHAMPIR. Fuck you America and Europe. Japan only gets a Dhampir.
- Darkstalkers Resurrection or Vampire Resurrection in japan. Rerelease of the first and 3rd games with GGPO. No Dee plus I think the Vampire Resurrection game version of Pyron, Huitzil and Donovan Baine are not included in Vampire Savior but Oboro Bishamon and Dark Talbain are playable.

WWE is paying Namco to block it, we're getting New Day's unicorn horn instead.
vsav players mind their own business and dont start every fighting game related sentence with "Well I've played 3rd strike on ps2..."
also if harada gets geese dudes a fucking deity
Huh. This would be useful because of emulation. and lol at the sheer idgaf of "DEE the Dhamphir", that's the old Mike Bison Capcom alright. does he have a really wide brimmed hat?
The PSP game is great, but a PS2 game emulated on PC gives really easy 2P options.
All the updates after VSav were only available on very specific platforms, and all of them made changes to gameplay that the remaining players found distasteful. Had Capcom actually committed and made and official fourth game with an arcade release, things might be different. Instead we got the disjointed mess of slightly modified re-releases posted above.
Also, Dee was a headswap of Demitri. He seemed like a pretty lazy character in a lot of ways.

i must be the only person who likes Krauser
Where the heck did all the awesome character modelers from MVC3 go? Those guys were the GOAT.
Yeah those models and that art style are super dope and will stand the test of time.

Yeah, it sounded like all Capcom did to a series that was heating up was find a way to completely divide its player base starting at the vampire savior release date since thats when they suddenly pop out two other versions and all have different roster.
How the hell was that ever a good idea? What was the logic behind that?
No wonder fighters died off for awhile given the level of fatigue they were creating in their various titles.
chainsaw feet are cool
And helldunk. Shit helldunk is the most Mahvel super. If you could combo into that, I know I'd go wild in the crowd.

I don't think i've sold a game in a while, now that i have money of course. I did sell SFxT but I regret that sort of... Online was pretty much dead on PS3 (should rebuy it on PC).Yamazaki, Vanessa and Rock...
Shouldn't have sold KOF
I usually don't sell multiplayer games
And when i do i rebuy em
Probably same case this time

I wish that all these people that seemingly want a new Vampire would just go on fightcade and play Savior, it's a good game!
