any of the ryus

They're way ahead of you V_Dragon.

No, no that's too obvious. Let's say VampiricD.

Actually, despite the apropos Simpsons reference, I'm not so sure this is our friend.  IP traces back to the Czech Republic and doesn't appear to be a proxy, but a legit ISP.  I'll keep an eye out, though.

I am lost. What is going on? I thought we were talking possible character inclusions

[AuraChannelerChris]

AND speaking about character inclusions, more teams for each brand have been revealed.

Namco Bandai
Alisa Amiella & Soma Schicksal from Gods Eater Burst

Capcom

Frank West from Dead Rising & Hsien-Ko from Darkstalkers

Sega

Zephyr and Leanne from Resonance of Fate.

[Aeolus]

Son Of A Bitch MK2

I was just about to post that as well.

Ninja Edit: Anyways, that makes the previous predictions of Leanne and Frank West retroactively correct.

Ninja Gaiden Edit: Might as well provide the link.

Sega

Zephyr and Leanne from Resonance of Fate.

Without Vash though..... D:
...this is tragic.

[Kevadu]

Sega

Zephyr and Leanne from Resonance of Fate.

...this is tragic.

Seriously, Vash is what made that game good...

[cj_iwakura]

I liked all three, but yeah, you have to have them all. They complemented each other perfectly.

Raisins!

Zephyr and Leanne from Resonance of Fate.

Maybe he's an assist character for an ultimate attack?

Still not the same though since assists tend to speak less than the peoples they're assisting. :qq:

I can't imagine what they were thinking with that, when a game that relies on it's chemistry with it's only three main characters take one out of the occasion. 
 (spoilers:

Take out the emo-school-shooter ((lawl, LITERALLY!)), not Vash.)

The game references Resonance of Fate in a special attack.

Furthermore, it shows Alisa and Soma in action. Also, Frank West and Hsien-Ko are in fact a team.

For once I'm on top of things with this round of updates. Nothing particularly thrilling or unexpected about the roster update except for more SW dudettes, and the new mechanics sound like they were swiped from Endless Frontier (incidentally this sounds like battles either aren't going to let you field many units at all or they're going to take even longer than before and the general strategy will be reduced to cluster up and flatten everything).

My god do those field screens look goofy as hell. All the PCs are just standing around looking like derpy idiots when they don't have focus (i.e. 90% of the time). They might as well be uniformly colored disembodied heads set on a 2D grid at this rate.
