Story Mode, Additional SCV Images from Famitsu

As much as it appeals to me that Raphael would be more central if he were the new Nightmare (lol), I really hope he's not. I like him being his own thing, the deranged, pompous, fencing vampire.

Though, it is true that Raph had smoke coming out of his boots in the drawing. It's possible that the Raph they revealed is a specter-like presence (like Raph's soul or something) and that the new Nightmare is Raphael's body. I hope not, though. That would be really convoluted.

In any case, I'm glad they're putting more effort into the story. Can't wait for it's release.
 
I still think New Nightmare is Hilde's father. Why else is Hilde in the game?
Because she's awesome, has a very unique fighting style, and the sickest design in the whole game. Besides, you don't just make a new character and focus the game on it to just drop it right away.
 
I like Hilde a lot, I don't play her but she's the kind of characters I admire ! : she's a Princess, but very strong mind with good values like honor. She takes her responsabilities, she doesn't fear to take weapons and fight for her kingdom !

Also, Namco included her in the game to show the players that they are aware of their mistakes from SC4, and that they'll make a balanced game. So they totally relooked Hilde's gameplay and made everything to prevent Doom combo ! :)

Hilde is one of my favorite characters design/art wise. Never played her though. I think she looks better without the helmet personally but considering what we've heard of characters and their profiles I expect her to have some role in the story as well. I applaud Namco for taking a character that they had problems with and fixing her.
