LET'S FIGHTING!
No. You're missing the point. All the chars should already be unlocked from the start. That's what I'm saying. -_-
You already paid $60 for it. You should already have access to everything. When you buy a music CD, you're not forced to "earn" the rest of the tracks. When you buy a movie, you're not forced to "earn" the rest of the scenes. When you buy a book, you're not forced to "earn" the rest of the chapters. You paid for it, and you can skip to whatever part you want. I don't know why consumers have allowed the game industry to tell us that we still haven't earned out entire game when pay $60 for it.
Thanks. Now I wonder where those guys are getting the images from...
No. Hitomi is most definitely not tom-boyish. She still has your typical girly girl personality and attitude. Having a brawler-type fighting style and wearing tanktops doesn't make a tomboy.
Nope. If it's on the disc from launch day, that means that they already had the money to produce it which means they're supposed to make that back from the initial $60 you pay to get the game in the first place.
Also, I'm interested in talking to a lawyer to see if on-disc DLC is even legal. Or at least that a judge could be convinced that it shouldn't be allowed. Imagine if you bought a movie but select scenes are locked unless you pay extra. The public would never go for this and you'd best believe someone would be crazy enough to organzine some class action lawsuit. You already paid for it, so how can someone tell you that you can't have access to it? And don't try to say games are different cause it's the same exact thing. The biggest strike against the way how the game industry is doing this is the fact that you are never told that the content is already on the disc and that you are paying TWICE for content. The complete lack of warning most definitely should not be legal. At the very least, you should be legally required to state on the game box that on-disc content is locked until you pay extra.
That's EXACTLY what's happening here. Companies are not satisfied with making "only" $60 anymore. So on-disc DLC (and DLC in-general actually) has become the new scheme to hike up the price of games. What you used to get for $60 now costs $60 + $5 +$5 +$5 +$5 etc. I hope you idiots who actually support on-disc DLC like the idea of paying $100+ for a new game cause that's where the industry is headed if this doesn't stop. Next-gen, we'll be looking at paying $70 for a game off the shelve and then having at least half of its content locked unless you pay at least an extra $30.
Lol. Yeah. Because people actually say "I'M ONLY GONNA GET THAT GAME IF I HAVE TO MANUALLY UNLOCK EVERYTHING". -_- No. No one says that. Casuals love DOA because it's a casual-friendly game. Not because it has unlockables. Casuals don't look at the DOA name and say "OH I LIKE THAT GAME CAUSE I CAN UNLOCK THINGS". They look at it and say "I like this game cause it's not as hard as other fighters" or "THIS GAME IS FUN".
If you really think DOA5 would lose sales if all the chars are unlocked from the start... do us a favor and please never work at a game company. -_- Your view on how this industry and its consumers work are terribly flawed and your suggestions to your company would only serve to influence them to do more terrible things that are hurting the industry more than helping.
Nope. Unlockables aren't an experience. They're an illusion of replay value. Unlockables are thrown in as a cop-out to make you feel like there's more to the experience than is actually there. If they want to extend the single-player experience, then do it by adding more modes or at least one mode that takes a while to get through. (SC1, SC2, and SC3 all had fun extra modes that were fun on their own regardless of whether or not you were unlocking things as you played)
I have spent hundreds of hours playing Left 4 Dead 2 (which has literally no unlockables whatsoever) as opposed to just 60 hours for Resident Evil 5. (which has A LOT of unlockables) Why? Because RE5 threw in unlockables to artificially enhance the replay value of the game. Once you unlocked everything, you realized there wasn't much reason you wanted to keep playing the actual game. Whereas with Left 4 Dead 2, the game itself is so damn amazing and addictive that I just played and played and played for the game itself. THAT is how make a good game with replay value. Make your actual game worth playing again and again. Not this illusion BS with unlockables.
Yeah, that would be alright. I mean the principle of the matter that these things shouldn't be locked in the first place still exists. But I could live with a code to unlock everything. In a sense, even if you have to use code to access everything, that still grants you complete access to the thing you already paid for so I guess that technically satisfies my complaints.
YES THANK YOU!

Well as for the unlockable case i think they're nice in moderation. The difference between unlocking things in a book or movie, and unlocking them in a game is that the game is supposed to be an interactive experience. And as such, experiencing and actively working towards these rewards is supposed to be rewarding. It is pretty much all a mater of personal preference, but on a whole most people do enjoy unlocking things because they're kind of like little surprises sprinkled throughout what should be an already enjoyable experience.
For fighting games this could be entirely different.
And as for the DOA being a casual friendly game, i think DOA5 will change that. If what Lopedo says is true about it. Which could turn out bad or good for the players. I know some people will get frustrated over the skill gap that inevitably occurs with all fighting games when you reach the higher skill levels. But that could be even greater now and people might be all like "This game is fun to play around with, but once you encounter someone who knows what to do i just cant compete". And at this level that's where people stop playing / supporting it.
