Does the eagle reveal disqualify a new lovecraftian character?

Between what?

Eagle and Lovecraft

There is not, but @DescartesTruth really wants a Lovecraftian XD

I would love to see one too, but not in Eagle

If / when we do a Lovecraft-inspired character, it’ll be pretty obvious it’s a Lovecraft-inspired character.

Eagle is not that character.

@TempusChaoti after Eagle’s release, will we have news about a possible season 4? or future characters or KI’s future in general?

I know that this implies NOTHING at all, but kinda reminds me something…

This was the first hint we got about Eagle, besides the novella. This reunion with the Nez Percé, which later was posted, served also for building Thunder’s new costume

After that(your post), I was pretty sure about Eagle making it into the game. A part of me wanted this third post season character to NOT be Eagle, since I was so sure he will come later, with even more characters.

Again, I don’t want to get early conclussions, your statement neither confirms or denies anything, but it “clicked” a similar line of thinking than when you mentioned the “Eagle reconsidered” post

Please could someone show me an example of lovecraft char ? Is it a kraken monster or a sherlock holmes look alike ?

@TempusChaoti

I’m curious about that myself.

Some examples, including Cthulhu(first), Yogg Saron(Wow Lovecraftian boss), and Nyarlathotep(last)

Just thought I’d point out that one of those is a Mind Flayer/Ilithid Savant from D&D. A pretty popular monster that wears the Lovecraft influence.

On topic: Until the developers directly say “This iteration of KI is over so we won’t be making more stuff for it”, no character archetype is off the table. Whether it be on a new season or a sequel down the line, there is a possibility it could happen.

Honestly lovecrat are really gross and I would greatly prefer other archytpes in KI

I understand your reservations, but all things considered I trust that the KI team will design it to be palatable within the KI sensibilities. Honestly I was a bit concerned about the presentation of Kan-ra and Hisako that KI would contort into something I wouldn’t be able to play or enjoy while my 4-year-old (then 2) was running around underfoot. Thankfully though that was not the case, and I have faith that a lovecraftian character will follow suit.

last pic remind me of monster from The Thing. :smiley: I love it!

Joanna Dark, Wendigo and Sharkman > Lovecraftian IMO

(psst you know what would fix that? a fourth season with all of them)

One thing certain: If we won’t get Lovecraftian in KI2013, he will definetly be one of the first announced characters in sequel, demand is too high.

Honestly, them being bipedal makes them “not strange /alien enough” for me (from dayv0 pics, even though those are all classic Lovecraft style references). Would love to see what Keits and ig would do with a 6 foot Shuma gorath archetype!

Yaaaassssss that’s some cool ■■■■, can you imagine in ki!!

This makes me happy. Glad Eagle’s not that character, but also glad that you guys might be considering more characters at this point. With Rukari saying that there won’t be a season 4 announcement at E3, it’s easy to start wondering what the future holds beyond staying tuned. :slight_smile:

Really hope we see something like this guy in the near future:

Or maybe this guy:
