At one time during KIWC stream, Max was talking about is work on Season 3 and he said, at least that is what I understood, that there will probably be 8 characters at season 3 launch!!! Am I the only one who heard this??
If that’s the case, how many characters do you guys think S3 will have? I feel 4 chars after release woul be a fair number.
I think 3 characters at release; rash, kim wu and the arbiter.
really hope for at least 4 characters, 4th one being tusk of course.
But i dont think so.
They did anounced (on ign) that season 3 would launch with more characters than season 2 did.
Season 2 launched with 2 characters; tj combo and maya.
So we can expect 3 characters and we can only hope for more at launch.
Anyway kim wu, rash and arbiter is a good start together with all the changes.
I think even if they have more characters in a nearly finished state, they will still aim for 3 or 4. Nothing keeps interest in the game than releasing a new character every month.
1- 4 characters, but the Arbiter not among them
2- 5 Characters, with the Arbiter among them
Why? Because I don’t see S3 releasing with more Guest characters than original KI characters. With that in mind, and knowing that Kim Wu and Rash are the most finished characters, it’s also a good idea to show as soon as possible a brand new character. This is the first time we see the Arbiter and Rash in a fighting game, and although Kim and Tusk surelly have new movesets, they are “heritage” from other game, but sure IG wants to go nuts with a new character from the scrach, and this is a golden opportunity
Since Kim Wu, Rash, Arbiter are the only ones revealed at this point, it is clear to me they are the furthest ahead in production and will be there at launch. We may only hope for more.
I think people banking on Eyedol being among the cast are very naive.
We also already have Omen, so yet ANOTHER Gargos minion seems overkill, and honestly, puts me off a bit.
I think we’ll get:
Kim Wu
Rash
Arbiter
Tusk
New character (perhaps vampire)
Gargos
New sibling character (likely Mayas sister (also perhaps vampire))
Honestly, he’s just too silly of a character. His design was terrible, is gameplay was not interesting… just a bad character. Ken Lobb thinks so too, he doesn’t add anything to the game. Also the fact that the entire new story revolves around Gargos as the ultimate enemy suggests that they skipped the whole Eyedol thing… THANK GOD:P
Thank god? You should not say that because Season 3 is not finish… I mean what if they really bring Eyedol back and you’ll still hate him? No, I don’t think so. I believe IG could remake Eyedol’s design, gamplay and etc.
