I know alot of people don't go to the video thread that really enjoyed The 1st dead fantasy, as well as his other joints.

Well he released part II today....Nothing but pure ecstasy.

Jesus Christ, Rinoa fucking DESTROYED them. :rofl: As it should happen, DOA girls would get fucked up by Final Fantasy girls. They better call Ryu or some shit, he's the only motherfucker that could run with them.

It's pretty good. I like a lot of the ideas featured in the videos, but the action lacks impact for the most part to me. Seems like everyone's no selling everything. Hogan's got nothing on these girls.

But Rinoa is wow. Fucking broken.

He went totally overboard on the choreography for that "Haloid" thing he did. Don't remember the first "Dead Fantasy" that much, but hopefully he's toned his shit down by now. Cool stuff, regardless.

Ok since a discussion on it started I need an explanation. Monty said there's 5 more episodes coming. One of each of those separate fights...but there was only 4 tecmo girls (the axe girl is from Ninja Gaiden isn't she?) against 5 FF girls. What gives?

And I really really really want to see Hitomi destroy Tifa's face.

One more girl? Tina or Lei...something, I guess? Or someone else from Tecmo?

Okay, to be honest, I don't like this one on one thing. I want them all together wrecking each others shit. One on one is too boring to follow up the crazy shit that has happened in DF 1 and 2. Hopefully for the last one they all come back together for the final showdown.

edit: i just read up on it, all thats said was sorceresses have human life spans. ultimecia having the griever necklace, rinoa's features AND no depth or background in the story besides her castle waiting outside of the field are all evidence that she is rinoa, not to mention the creators story telling style (open ended to a certain point), think about it... why the hell will they give up the constant debate about ff8 by stopping the arguement :confused:

In game evidence + normal life spans = Ultimecia no go.

Ultimecia, from far away future where sorceress are persecuted. FAR AWAY future. This is stated in game (Edea mentions it, after she is de-possessed, I believe), no speculation at all. The only way for the Ultirinoa theory to work is if sorceress had extended lifespans/immortality.

I haven't played in years so I can't remember the other parts of Ultimecia's story, but they are there, mentioned through Edea and I believe Rinoa. It is quite sparse though. I don't know where you got the Griever necklace from, as far as I know she's never had it, all she does with Griever is summon it from Squall's thoughts and then BEASTIALITY it. The castle and the field are whack though, and since Ultirinoa is no, it's more a red herring or perhaps they wanted to play into the whole fate/hope theme, whereby the baddie takes over the one sacred place for them.

I don't know about S-E's intention of speculation (or anything else, including field/castle thing). In fact, they seem fond of clearing things up. Maybe a bit too fond. *points to FFVII extra games*

This is getting lengthy, and I'd rather not derail this thread too much. :sad:

although whats been revealed in ff7 has confirmed all my theories on it and expanded them.

maybe the whole rinoa ultimecia conection has something to do with reincarnation :wonder:

as for this dead fantasy saga, very good! although tifa is the only one who has officially shown to be consistantly fighting at this pace and even faster

The new ninja chick from Ninja Gaiden Dragon Sword perhaps? I'm lost as to how there are four Tecmo fighters versus five Square fighters. Unless episode five is a final battle of the four Tecmo fighters versus Angel Wing Riona.

Oh and while the action is all kick ass n' all. The fact that no one gets hurt takes away from the drama. I mean even when the potions came out, Tifa just used them for drunken boxing. Be different if they were all running away to rush a bottle down, or for the DOA girls, shoving strawberries and rice balls (items from survival mode) down their throats. Because with out the fear of death...

with the electric shank thing that he hit her with in the chest? I wonder how it would have gone if he didn't have that equipment. She probably would have done better had she not got caught off by 'bench assist'. Not to mention that during Advent Children the only ones who were using materia were the the antagonists. There's so many powers that the Final Fantasy girls could use at their disposal. For all we know one of them could be holding Knights of the Round or Eden but monty hasn't even started bringing in possible summons and shit yet. This movie was the first time we actually got to see some reeeealy smart spell usage...Fuckin haste going down the cliff? That shit OWNED.

Edit:
This is hot sex as usual! Of course, the fantasy girls would totally own...there are many more and magic/abilities/materia/overdrives/summons/etc.etc. is too much.

^^ It was hastega noob

oh yeah..cause it affected everyone on the team so you gotta add the aga or eda in there.

Her biggest problem against him was that when he started to move as fast as he could, she couldn't keep up. He was simply too much for her at the speed he was using.

even as a guy who has only played FFX-1, i can still see that there's no way that Tecmo girls could even hold a candle to DEM FF HOES.

the only way that the creator of this could possibly even things out between the two groups would to have made this about the ladies of KOF vs the ladies of DOA because there's waaay to many reasons why DOA could never fuck with FF.

Thanks alot I'm glad you guys liked my movie.

A little secret about the whole 4 on 5 thing is that I still have one open end to add ??? character *cough Ninja Gaiden 2* who probably hasn't been released yet.

About them coming back together at the end in Dead Fnatasy VIII? Very likely.

Really the best reason for spillting them up into singles was just that choreographing a 5 on 4/5 fight was a logistical nightmare, not only. My laptop was goingt o have an anuerysm. Plus now I can really mix it up a bit.

Amazing video. Your work has got better and better.

I would like to know which Ninja Gaiden character you speak of, but I presume it's a suprise and/or we have to do some research.

The Final Fantasy girls seem a little broken in comparison to the DOA girls.

wow...didn't know you actually posted in here. That's awesome as hell. And I don't doubt that choreographing that fight was a pain in the ass but you managed to do it. There were so many things you had to keep up with and animate at one time that it was crazy! Every time I see one of your vids it somewhat inspires me to try to do things a bit better but my comp is not well suited at the moment..:(. I do have 3 questions for ya though. The scene with everyone going down the side of the tower. How long did it take you to get through that part of the animation if you remember and was any of it influenced at all by the cloud vs. Sephiroth scene in Advent Children where they were falling down and fighting in the debris? Are the techniques you're using to make this series different than when you did Haloid?

Edit: after watching it again...which scene was the toughest for you? I'd imagine it was either the Tornado tussle or the tower scene with everyone falling.

Let's see the fallign sequence came actually with the song. It felt like a jump, so I had to do it.

I guess both the falling fight in FFVIIAC and in DMC3 were sorta an influence. 'cept my original plan was to not only be falling and fighting. But for them to be chased by and avalanche of debree and having to fight to stay away from it or trying to toss the other team into the avalanche etc. Except I don't know enough or have enough resources to simulate such a thing for such a constant amount of time that I knew I had to cut it.

Hardest technical scene woulda probably been any one scene with all 9 characters on screen at once. I seriously had to buy a suped up new computer just to actually having a workspace in which I could keep them all visible at once. And even then it wasn't 100%. Like I'd seriously crash just by making more than 6 characters visible consequetively. (Has something to do with the texture caching bla bla bla) So like I wonder if there even is a scene with all 9 on screen at once? Like the "separate ways" scene as I call it where the 4 FF characters split of in 4 direction and push the 4 DOA girls into the pillars of light, that scene was split up in two parts with matching cameras just to get it done.

Hardest Scene to do would've probably been Rinoa's long drawn out entrance. I built here model myself, so I really wanted to show off how great she looked. So I wanted a lot of facial and had to keep rendering out a preview and then figure out if I was happy with it. On top of that I set the render to some madly high quality and you can really see it in the detail once the highres version is out this Sat. Some really sharp shadowing and rendering.

The torndao part looks hard but really isn't so bad. Kinda just have the characters doing what they normally do just que up a pillar of rock to be there whenver they supposedly land. It's so cheap but gets alot of response that it feels like cheating :D

Oh yea the secret behind the 5th DOA girl is that I was hoping the tmiing would be just right after the Ninja Gaiden II announcment that they would have a new heroine, that all I needed was just one screenshot. One image and I'd make her model and put her in the movie. Just to show how cutting edge I was :D. But as fate would have it NGII isn't coming out till like June, so whatever way Kairi meets up with aledged 5th DOA girl, fate also might work in my favor that the situation might not be totally what you'd expect. Afterall, it all doesn't have to be fighting. Really we'll see how it goes when the time comes. Right now my focus is DFIII and making the most awesome movie I can :)

The torndao part looks hard but really isn't so bad. Kinda just have the characters doing what they normally do just que up a pillar of rock to be there whenver they supposedly land. It's so cheap but gets alot of response that it feels like cheating :D

Oh yea the secret behind the 5th DOA girl is that I was hoping the tmiing would be just right after the Ninja Gaiden II announcment that they would have a new heroine, that all I needed was just one screenshot. One image and I'd make her model and put her in the movie. Just to show how cutting edge I was :D. But as fate would have it NGII isn't coming out till like June, so whatever way Kairi meets up with aledged 5th DOA girl, fate also might work in my favor that the situation might not be totally what you'd expect. Afterall, it all doesn't have to be fighting. Really we'll see how it goes when the time comes. Right now my focus is DFIII and making the most awesome movie I can :)

oh ho!? so you actually did that Rinoa model from scratch? Nice!!! :pray: I wouldn't have figured that the Rinoa entrance was hardest for you...but I did make a sort of comment in the other thread where something about the way she moved...didn't quite look right. Like I said I wasn't sure where to put my finger on it...could have just been the camera's constant movement fuckin with my head lol. Otherwise it's still better than anything i could have made (or a lot of people...especially by yourself). I look forward to your next vid aaaand maybe perhaps when this series is done or whenever it is that you have time and you're not beastin you could do a behind the scenes for GT like you did for Haloid.

I think kings of power 4 billion % out does this. Definitely in style points.

Maybe when it comes to giving a seizure from all the flashing lights and horribly small texts.

Not to knock it, I certainly appreciate the sprite work and all that games that it referenced, but I have disagree that it has more "style" than this, if only because it's difficult to see that style a lot of the time.

I know alot of people don't go to the video thread that really enjoyed The 1st dead fantasy, as well as his other joints.

Well he released part II today....Nothing but pure ecstasy.

Damn you. You used the exact same loophole I was going to use to post this in GD. :arazz:

That's probably why I took so long to reply to the thread. I'll make two long-winded posts since the creator in the thread.

Jesus Christ, Rinoa fucking DESTROYED them. :rofl: As it should happen, DOA girls would get fucked up by Final Fantasy girls. They better call Ryu or some shit, he's the only motherfucker that could run with them.

Too bad Ryu doesn't have boobs.

I know nothing about Rachel, but she at least does seem kind of fucked getting Rinoa one-on-one. Especially if Rinoa is taking her to Angelo.

LOL at 5:28. Full SA2 parry.

I think it was your post that made realize that. Otherwise, I probably wouldn't have noticed until like the 4th time I watched it.

And I really really really want to see Hitomi destroy Tifa's face.

Any particular reason besides wanting to see FF7 fanboys cry?

as for this dead fantasy saga, very good! although tifa is the only one who has officially shown to be consistantly fighting at this pace and even faster

Er...no.

Laz legitimately kicked her ass when she had no Materia because he did (IIRC).

Kinda of like what's going on right now.

If anyone has been keeping on the level of this fight, it's Hitomi--and I'm saying never having played DOA and never planning to--considering all she seems to have is monsterous strength and no magic. (Unless, of course, her supernatural strength comes from magic.)

Oh and while the action is all kick ass n' all. The fact that no one gets hurt takes away from the drama. I mean even when the potions came out, Tifa just used them for drunken boxing. Be different if they were all running away to rush a bottle down, or for the DOA girls, shoving strawberries and rice balls (items from survival mode) down their throats. Because with out the fear of death...

I think the potions coming out were because Materia (or at least Mako) is consumes MP like a motherfucker. That and I vaguely remember the Gun Mage class taking very little MP compared to Tifa spamming stuff like Firaga to Demi2 combos.

As for the fear of death thing, I think it's more of a homage to the fact that you can be impaled, crushed by meteors and even have their souls crushed and then get back up and be fine.

Besides, One Piece is an excellent work of fiction that's pretty much devoid of death. Death isn't really that important, especially in fictional worlds where you can undo (except for story purposes, damnit Aerith).

It's awesome, but Haloid felt so much better to me.

Because they were lesbians?

Its really some of the most awesome stuff i've seen. I feel bad for watching it for free

Same.

If anything besides needless guilt, it kind of makes me want to do learn how to do this since it would be a consistent hobby and potential work (provided the economy doesn't completely destroy itself...haha...ha).

The only person Tifa fought at that level owned her the second he started to take her seriously.

Seriously.

with the electric shank thing that he hit her with in the chest? I wonder how it would have gone if he didn't have that equipment. She probably would have done better had she not got caught off by 'bench assist'.

Oh please. She got caught off guard by a bench. A bench! Really, now?

She would have been put up a much better fight, even without materia, if it wasn't for the "AC" in that movie's title actually standing for "Always Cloud".

Seriously, the only person besides him that got to do something competent in that movie who wasn't evil or dead or Rufus (debatedably) was Vincent, whose likely the 4th or 5th most popular character (after Sephiroth--sigh--and Aeris/Aerith and maybe Zack) and shortly afterwards got his own game.

Fortunately Mr. Oum doesn't have to worry about marketing ploys, which is why I'm not understanding the arguments of bias for the reasons that I gave Furry Curry (although he asked for none).

Her biggest problem against him was that when he started to move as fast as he could, she couldn't keep up. He was simply too much for her at the speed he was using.

Once again, this is correct.

Now that I think it about, it makes sense their speed game from Haste or something.

Now we have to wait till part 3.... sigh >.<

Yeah...but the wait for this one doesn't seem like it's going to be nearly as long.

This is the version I saw. lol at the guy saying "Thank god it's over"

http://youtube.com/watch?v=1rZE8UnWrHw

I will end him.

I will find him and end him.

lol that kairi goes from useless captured bitch to valor form crazy bitch

Ever a bitch, though, apparently.

damn, rinoa is broken.

wishing star, invincible moon, gunblade, angel wing + pinwheel assist for the motherfuckin win

Don't Wishing Star and Invincible Moon need Angelo to be present?

It's been a while since I've played that game.

That movie was awesome, man. Great work. :tup:

P.S. Keep making Rinoa wreck shop, it was thoroughly entertaining. And seriously...the DOA girls would need at least Ryu Hayabusa to win that fight. :rofl:

Shouldn't Rinoa eventually get tired, though? Especially considering that it's a Limit Break.

If not, then I Rachel really does seem fucked out of all of Tecmo's side.

At 2:52, I cant help but think of Ibuki's SA2.

Good video. :tup:

I think it's actually homage to Dante's Rainstorm, but I've never played a Devil May Cry game and both are by Capcom, so tomato tomato.

but I did make a sort of comment in the other thread where something about the way she moved...didn't quite look right. Like I said I wasn't sure where to put my finger on it...

It could have been when she turned around; her left leg was bent sort of oddly (to me).

But that's all that noticed "wrong" with her model.

Hey, he's getting this is on Spike TV?

Very nice, even if I don't like Spike.

Anybody notice that Tifa and Hitomi recreate the last couple seconds of a spectacular Chun vs Ken match as they slide down the building? Parried Hoyoku Sen ft:wow:

You are pretty much the last person to notice....


Oh, which reminds me. The reason that Hitomi probably reminds you of early Buffy is because they both wear causal dress, with pants over more "girly" clothes, and both were hand-to-hand combatants with only super strength. (When did Willow come in? I'm not sure considering how little of Buffy I've actually watched.)

Of course, this isn't assuming that you were being rhetorical.

Onward! To questions for the Monty (in another post)!

Er...no.

Laz legitimately kicked her ass when she had no Materia because he did (IIRC).

Kinda of like what's going on right now.

nah...nobody used materia in the movie besides the seph triplets...and that's what Laz came and nabbed after knocking Tifa down. That's unless they were using some type of materia off screen that nobody knew about that they had before they reached that point.

I think the potions coming out were because Materia (or at least Mako) is consumes MP like a motherfucker. That and I vaguely remember the Gun Mage class taking very little MP compared to Tifa spamming stuff like Firaga to Demi2 combos.

thinking about it....I don't think those were potions. They were probably Elixars. Could be wrong but that's what I thought I saw on the bottle when they were first knocked out of their hands and rolled close to the camera.

Oh please. She got caught off guard by a bench. A bench! Really, now?

She would have been put up a much better fight, even without materia, if it wasn't for the "AC" in that movie's title actually standing for "Always Cloud".

Yeah...but the wait for this one doesn't seem like it's going to be nearly as long.

Well she didn't...quite get caught off guard by the bench. It was more so along the lines of her...umm....let's see...'getting the nunchakus thrown at her'. We all know what happens if you catch the nunchakus....

It could have been when she turned around; her left leg was bent sort of oddly (to me).

But that's all that noticed "wrong" with her model.

[/QUOTE]

no no no no...There wasn't anything wrong with the model...It was just something funky with the way how she moved when she first came in. Like I said I don't know exactly how to describe it and it could be and probably is just the way the camera was moving fuckin with my head lol. The only thing i can say is that it's just...very very slightly off.

It was a plot device.


There wasn't anything wrong with the model...It was just something funky with the way how she moved when she first came in.

I was talking about movement, not how her actual leg looked. It was fine, she seemed to move somewhat timidly in a slightly awkward when she turned around.

I think we're noticing different things, though.

All that shit while sliding down a waterfall of sand....

It was a wall of stone.

They wouldn't be able to stand on it (for so long) it wasn't all that solid.

I thought I saw an "X" on the bottle even though my monitor is an archaic one that's really dark.

And, Noooooo!!!!, you work for Midway? How did that...fate occur?

I'll check out the deviantart link a bit later.


Anyway, before I finally get into my own questions, I also want to give you (and your team) praise.

Not only for your talents, but for taking the time to do this, especially if you little time to begin with. I'm sure there are far more necessary things than attempting to please everyone.

Since pretty much everyone thing else has been said, I just want to say that immensely enjoyed the fight down the tower as well and all the little homages to other medias. I'm quite surprised that you picked Kairi, but she easily seems to be the most popular. (Turn down your speakers.) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Og71QEJsrI)

Anyway, I had three questions from a while. Let's see if I can remember them all in one. I think one was a minor nitpick and then the other two were larger questions.


Since my monitor is so dark, I'm just curious since I may not have noticed despite probably having watched the whole thing 10 times already, so I just wanted to asked: After Tifa realized Slowaga/Slow-All/Slowhatever, how did she move out of the way before Rikku knocked all the DOA girls into each other?
Oh, I actually just remembered another nitpick. When they're falling down the side of the tower and they come to that other building joint with the bridges, what is that supposed to be? I noticed that it didn't have a based when Rachel destroyed the bottom of the tower and I'm horrible at architecture and ancient civilizations, so I'm just wondering if there was anything that you drew from when you created that or had a specific purpose for what that was supposed to be.
Whoops. Another minor nitpick I wanted to ask about: Is there any reason that Yuna's Haste seemed to run out before the others? It seemed to have been gone by time she shot Kasumi to Hell.
Finally, on to a substantative question. Many people, even in this thread, have been saying that DOA is woefully mismatched against FF, and I can't really disagree since I don't play DOA. (Although I don't really agree that since so far, the DOA girls haven't really been using teamwork like FF girls have and are instead just covering each other's asses for the most part--there's a slight difference.) Anyway, what I was wondering was why you selected DOA to fight FF instead of, say, Soul Caliber fighting FF or Tekken fighting DOA, especially if you had troubles finding women with weapons. Was due to the availability of models? Due to popularity (which is somewhat linked to availability of models)? Due to personal preference (you've doubtless played a lot of FF and DOA alongside Capcom games)? A combination of any of those?
I was going to ask if Kairi was supposed to have an opponent in at all, but you said that she would later appear...provided everything worked out regarding her game's announcement. Due to that, my question has kind of changed into something of a (begging) suggestion should things not work out: If that woman doesn't get announced when she's supposed and Kairi's still supposed to fight, would you mind considering having Kairi fight one of female Organization XIII members (or was that only the Lightning woman?) or even one of the Keyblade Chasers (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k2RSnLYe0ms)? I doubt that it will work, especially since I've heard that metal is a bitch texture in 2D, much less 3D, and I'm sure that you had plans to bring everyone back together (though without Kairi, you would only have to attempt to have eight people on-screen at once, so maybe your computer won't go into seizures as much).


Regardless of what happens, I believe in your ability and I hope that whatever you do ends up working out how you (and your team) want it to. Fuck if it pleases everyone--you're far too nice. I can understand the sentiment of wanting to please everyone, but at best you're just pleasing most people since people are assholes.

Anyway, before I digress, I finally want to thank you for taking the time again to do not only this piece of art, but also respond to the thread.


P.S. Please find another job than Midway. Pretty please. :shake:

No, Haloid felt more "complete" with trademark special moves, good pacing, and believable over-the-top-ness.

DFII was awesome, but I felt that it was a bit excessive.
Also, not that I like or dislike Rikku, but she got owned in this one. You got to see Super Moves from Tifa, Rinoa and Yuna, but nothing equally as crazy from Rikku.

1. That scene Tifa was actually there still holding that pose and the three of them piled up would fly past her right over her head. As the project was coming to a close I was really coming close on the deadline. (I seriously worked 6 days straight minus going to work) Things sometimes slip past and that was one of them. I forgot to make her visible when rendering out the scene. But seriously there's more wrong with the movie than that. Being a good director also means knowing to cut your loses before you burn out on a project. I noticed that but knew with the deadline coming up I couldn't afford go back into that scene.

Believe me when I say that since you have good eyes, you'll see even more errors when the HD version comes out, and jsut the same I'm well awrare of them, but try very hard to not let them bother me.. The reason I can get anything done is the fact that I can say no to myself about some things that may be minor compared to the bigger picture.


2. The architecture of that kinda implies that the wall that Tifa threw Kasumi through was the end of that extentsion of the building. Kinda like a big lump sticking out of its side. Doesn't actually make sense. But you're the first I've known to bring it up. The real reason is that the initial plan was to have more and more towers appear as they descended, and by the time they reached the bottom it was like a field of towers that they could jump between and battle through. But tyring for that made turned out more difficukt than it was worth. Hence the quick cut and lame excuse. :D

3. Not that it ran out, goin back to knowing where to let thigns go. I forgot to put the yellow glo one her. The actions she took were still of haste quality, being able to rapid fire a massive field of bullets. But the glo would've sold it more.

4. DOA simply because of the acces to models and how it was easy to pair up against FF. Yuna /Kasumi are sorta the mains, Rikku/Ayane are the secondary higher speed types, and Tifa/Hitomi were the stronger brawler types. There's more layered on top of that, but I never actually had plans to include Rachel/RInoa/Kairi. But the decision I made has certainly given me more avenues to make it more interesting.

As interesting and as much as I like SC, the characters are somewhat convuluted and require a little more hardcore audience.

5. By the time I get to Dead Fantasy VII, I'm pretty sure Ninja Gaiden II will be out and I will have played it. As far as other battles go, I can't really say where I'll be. But I do want to start doing some more original stuff eventually.

6. Midway isn't that bad. I'd say the problem is bad management. For example you know God Of War? Most of the team that made that game was from Midway, the same guys who did MK Shaolin Monks. Only hen they moved over to Sony were they able to make a hit game. So it's the higher ups and politics that really result in all of what's wrong these days.

I can't complain though, I'm pretty lucky to have gotten this far considering my last job before this was 3rd shift at Kinkos. :D

Dude I'll admit its a bad ass video which I'm sure took a shatload of skill to do, but speaking purely from personal opinion, its a little too over the top for me. Everything looks cool but there isnt a shred of practicality to be found. But again thats just me. The one super redeeming factor was the magic that the FF girls used. I thought that was killer.

wow...didn't know that...someone needs to kick midway in the ass and tell them to make Shaolin monks 2. And funny thing is that as soon as I mention something about mortal kombat a lil countdown thing shows up on ed boon's website. Are you helping at all with that lil project monty?



Seriously, with her training, she could have jumped on the bench or gone over it and Dolphin Kicked his ass.

It was a plot device.



eh...the ole 'catch *insert object* that i'm gonna chuck at you' thing has always been around. I'm sure she could have too...but she didn't..she swatted it away nonchalantly and ended up getting bzzzted. So...of course it was a plot device lol.
Tifa was probably gonna end up getting electric shanked in that spot regardless for plot device even if she happened to jump on the bench.

Edit:
i just watched haloid for the time.

i'm just speechless. :wow: :wow: :wow:

i've seen some crazy choreograph and editing on the internet. the classic xiao xiao videos, i've seen the crazy mortal kombat vs street fighter videos and i've seen rise of the mushroom kingdom.

i'm impressed by all of those videos listed above, but your videos just blows them out of the water. the editing, graphics and choreograph looks better than most games out.

*throws in SMBZ into that list*....man the wait for no. 7 is a killer..X.X and I'm wondering what Proxicide is up too...he doesn't have a website available to go too from newgrounds...

Monty, have you considered using Alpha-152 for the DOA side? She seems to be the only DOA character that could believably stand up to Rinoa in that form. Does Rachel have more under her sleeve(I don't play Ninja Gaiden)?

So you started with the FF girls and then looked for people to put them up against?

The Damned

Well that was prompt.

No, Haloid felt more "complete" with trademark special moves, good pacing, and believable over-the-top-ness.

DFII was awesome, but I felt that it was a bit excessive.
Also, not that I like or dislike Rikku, but she got owned in this one. You got to see Super Moves from Tifa, Rinoa and Yuna, but nothing equally as crazy from Rikku.

Ah. I can understand that. Rikku is doing the worst, but I kind of chalk that up to being more of a set-up gal since most of her "Super Moves" would be from Mix or whatever class she initially was in FFX-2, which I think was still Thief or something.

So most of her stuff is based on agility, which seems to be barely above a lot of the other people's levels, so...yeah.

Oh well. She'll probably do better 1-on-1.

(It's funny that Rikku is your problem though, because in a lot of fanfiction that I know she's written as a lesbian.)

Everything looks cool but there isnt a shred of practicality to be found. ....The one super redeeming factor was the magic that the FF girls used. I thought that was killer.

Not into the irony! It burns! :wasted:

Ye gods, what's with people jizzing over everything?

Keep it in your pants.

Monty, have you considered using Alpha-152 for the DOA side? She seems to be the only DOA character that could believably stand up to Rinoa in that form. Does Rachel have more under her sleeve(I don't play Ninja Gaiden)?

Who is Alpha-152? The Spartan he used in "Haloid"?

hey guys the high def download of the movie is up...

Downloading as I post.

Believe me when I say that since you have good eyes, you'll see even more errors when the HD version comes out, and just the same I'm well aware of them, but try very hard to not let them bother me.. The reason I can get anything done is the fact that I can say no to myself about some things that may be minor compared to the bigger picture.

So to bring up it. I know you're not offended, but I can also understand the whole trying to not let it bother you part (which I would fail miserably).

It's funny that people say I have good eyes when I have like the worst vision ever without my glasses.

2. The architecture of that kinda implies that the wall that Tifa threw Kasumi through was the end of that extentsion of the building. Kinda like a big lump sticking out of its side. Doesn't actually make sense.

Architecture never makes any sense, so if you had just lied and said something else that sounded legit I wouldn't have bothered to attempt to double check since I hate architecture (despite it being oh-so practical).

3. Not that it ran out, goin back to knowing where to let thigns go. I forgot to put the yellow glo one her. The actions she took were still of haste quality, being able to rapid fire a massive field of bullets. But the glo would've sold it more.

Actually, looking at the HD version right now, she seems to still be glowing when she's firing the bullet field of doom, but not when she's attempting to shoot Kasumi beforehand.

Oh well. All these nitpicks are easily explained away even before most other people even ask for "the truth".

4. DOA simply because of the access to models and how it was easy to pair up against FF.

As interesting and as much as I like SC, the characters are somewhat convuluted and require a little more hardcore audience.

The DOA thing makes sense considering...well, eye candy.

However, and I apologize if this is mentioned in the deviantart account I've yet to look over, I still not really understand what you mean about "access to models" since I'm guessing it's more than talking about visual reference for the games that are in 3D. Do you access to actual data of some sort?

And as for the SC, even as a causal fan, I can sort understand that as well, even if it's just the whole Cervantes thing.

5. By the time I get to Dead Fantasy VII, I'm pretty sure Ninja Gaiden II will be out and I will have played it. As far as other battles go, I can't really say where I'll be. But I do want to start doing some more original stuff eventually.

Yeah, I can understand wanting to do original stuff eventually.

Ah well. I guess I'll just have to keep waiting for KH3.

6. Midway isn't that bad. I'd say the problem is bad management. ...So it's the higher ups and politics that really result in all of what's wrong these days.

That was actually what I was implying since it seems like a relatively insurmountable problem if the management is bad unless they leave or get arrested or die since they can't really be fired (provided they're up high enough).

But, hey, if it's working out for you than good luck.

Damned, Alpha-152 is the genetically enhanced clone of Kasumi from DOA4. Basically, a naked Kasumi made completely of blue-green translucent Jell-O.

And she'd get smacked down by Angel Wing Rinoa too, ROFL.

Genetically-enhanced how? More teleporting? Besides, obviously, her breast size no doubt.

I was kinda of figuring was a "Dural pretext" from the name, but I wasn't sure.

No, way the hell stronger, faster, and more destructive than Kasumi is.

..........*blinks*....sweet jesus...I had almost completely forgot that a random spartan had showed up in doa 4 X.X. Maybe she'd show up and help the doa girls out?...lmao @ thoughts of kairi going against the spartan. Doubt that would happen eh...it's an idea in case whoever it is that shows up in ninja gaiden 2 doesn't work out. That might be a bit of a stretch though...as I'm sure sticky grenades and sniper bullets can't stop tornados...>.>

Edit:...lol just noticed tifa was missing one of the bottles when the shot cut to behind her...definitely see what you mean by what you said earlier though monty.

The second one is when she jumps on the opponent's shoulders, hops off and double kicks the opponent into the air on the way down.
