He's technical. Think a more hilarious Voldo.

lol voldo just gets freakier and freakier. I always put pants on voldo in SC4 and will do in SC5. That guy just disturbs me but I like playing as him, he's very unpredictable and leaves your opponent dumbfounded.

It's been a while since I played SC3 and 4, couldn't really tell in which game Voldo was harder to use in.

If not Bayonetta, why not her Umbran Sister Jeanne? I mean, technically, given the current time period of Soul Calibur, Bayonetta would have been sealed away long before that. We've never been told what happened to Jeanne during that time, so it could be possible for her to have at least witnessed the events of Soul Calibur, if not participate in it at some point.

And apparently, Ezio has also been dead before Soul Edge was even [i]created[/i], though that could be explained away as having SC5 be a program in the Animus.

So sorry about necro bumping this mods, but I thought it would be appropriate considering the new Soul Calibur V has just been released. I just got the game, and I definitely think it is a step back in the right direction from III and IV. Any thoughts guys? Personally I like Violas gameplay just cause its so different.

great, they're bringing more of this undead crap to SC5
[/quote]

More? The only "undead" in this game AT ALL is Inferno Cervantes, since it hasnt existed for a good while story-wise. Oh and Algol but he's another matter altogether. If you count Ezio, Astaroth, Cervantes, Sophitia Elysium, Nightmare, or Yoshimitsu as undead, you REALLY NEED TO PAY ATTENTION; none of them are undead. In-fact Cervantes is finally "alive" and Nightmare is just a living form of the consciousness or whatever of Soul Edge. Ezio gets a timeskip excuse because he's from another series. Or do you not understand what crossover mechanics is?

Oh and this game is amazing <3. Modified my character from what he looked like in the PSN Club Topic, I'll post a picture tomorrow or something.

I haven't even played it yet, what's it like?

Pretty awesome :D the gameplay is much faster and more fluid. The new critical edge attacks are super fun. Also character creation is AMAZING. You can change colors of weapons, add patterns to clothes, and they have a lot of new body effects as well including face paint.

EDIT: they only got rid of amy, cassandra, and talim.............

technically I think the Astaroth in SC5 isn't the same as in the other SCs, not anymore
[/quote]

Noooo, not because he's less than a year old because the old golem (original Astaroth) was destroyed, or anything... Oh wait what's this?
[center][i] Astaroth will return in Soulcalibur V, and it has been confirmed that this Astaroth is an entirely new golem, under a year old. It has also been confirmed that many more Astaroths are being made.[/i][/center]

Mainly Setsuka and Talim. They were my two best characters.

I was never really good with Setsuka, had better luck with Talim, though her being gone isn't too great a loss.

Cassandra being gone wasn't too much either, she and Sophitia were slightly OPed in SC4

I'm personally glad Rock was gone, he was by far my worst character to fight with

Well SC5 takes place at least a decade after SC4, so there's a number of new characters. And Sophitia's daughter, Pyrrah, is essentially her clone.
And wasn't Rock basically a clone of Astaroth?

17 year time skip, valid excuse. A lot of these characters are in the game, either in their apprentice form or their children. Also, Setsuka's gameplay style IS in this game. In the form of Alpha Patrokolos; while Cassandra is with Pyrra (her sister Sophita being Pyrra Omega; her likeness being in Elysium). Rock has always been a one off from the series since Soul Blade.

I think it's like 17 years later or something. And because of Pyrrah, it's not really a loss for Cassandra and Sophitia
