Gee Godzilla, why does Toho let you have TWO gigabash collaborations?
>>22601389Xilien hands types this post
>>22601427Precisely! Ever since planet x had taken over twitter, we control the toxicity of its website for our own benefits! We could even cure internet flame wars if we wanted to today
>>22601375I fucking wish the multiplayer is alive, refunded this months ago. Props to devs still making contents though, they're clearly losing money with only like 100 players
So it's rumored that they tried for Gamera but Kadokawa told them no. How stingy do you have to be to say 'no' to something fucking TOHO said 'yes' to?
>>22601577More than one person likes Gamera, anon.
So who do ya think will be in the other 3 slots? I feel like Mothra will be a shoe 'in. I'm hoping King Ceaser gets in as well.
>>22602154Well, it is called the "Nemesis" DLC, so I'm assuming there won't be any allies of Godzilla, only foes. I suppose Mothra could count as a nemesis, but she's usually considered more of an ally, so who knows. Ghidorah's already been unofficially confirmed (I can't imagine who else would be associated with golden lightning coming down from a stormy sky), and the first wave already gave us Mechagodzilla, Gigan, and Destoroyah, so those three are off the table. Megalon? Hedorah? SpaceGodzilla? Passion Republic did pick Camearra of all characters for the Ultraman DLC, so maybe we'll get a lesser known Godzilla foe, like Monster X, Titanosaurus, or Gabara. Maybe they'll surprise us with an inclusion from the MonsterVerse and give us the Female MUTO.
>>22601375Godzilla pretty much dominates the entire genre. There's a huge power gap and demand. Exposure and success will do that to you.
I'm surprised Evangelion hasn't appeared yet. Feels like Eva crosses over with a lot of shit. Most recently, Shin Megami Tensei.
>>22601554It means the franchise is fucking cooked if they don;t even want that little exposure they may get from this tie in. They're phasing Gamera out again.
>>22602534For what it's worth, it's at least on their radar as a potential franchise to add.
>>22601554Kadokawa is not the best at making business decisions
No Satisfied Fans!
>>22601554Gamera’s moveset is literally perfect for a fighting game how are they this dumb.Same with his rogues, can you imagine getting to play as Rebirth Guiron
>>22601375I hope pacific rim, especially Cherno Alpha got in.
>>22602570Gamera was quite literally number 7 on their list of most influential shit, only outdone by shit like Overlord or Konosuba
>>22604369Like, imagine not using the character with more named attacks than Godzilla
>>22604409Anon that's not influential. That just means they've put out enough Gamera since 1965 that it managed to hold on during Kadokawa's deluge of nonstop isekai shit making way too much money. They've got the little asterisk there telling you that list is comprised of all titles since release year.
>>22604524Forgive me, I have a poor vocabulary.
>>22603914>A bunch of FOTM Isekai? Have all the budget >An animated revival of one of the only two Kaiju franchises to go toe to toe with Godzilla? Have a PS2 and a ham sandwich.
>>22604369>Same with his rogues, can you imagine getting to play as Rebirth GuironShowa Gamera / Legion or Iris / Zedus / One of the Rebirth kaiju would've been such a perfect line up.
>>22605337Showa, no. Heisei, yes.Personally, the ideal lineup would be>Gamera (Heisei G1 with G3 as his S-Class)>Gyaos (Super Gyaos S-Class?)>Iris (Uhhhh)>Guiron (Rebirth)
>>22602173I am hopeful for space godzilla. I want to see what they do with his crystal creating ability. Megalon won't be likely because they already have to crab/beetle monster with claw hand. 2 internet bux on megarius.
>>22605644I get angry whenever they bring back Spacegodzilla for the 50th time.He's lame as shit and there're a million cooler monsters to use
>>22605675>for the 50th timeI didn't know showing up in 2 games and having a few comic appearances added up to 50
>>22606354You get what I fucking mean. He's lame as shit and Biollante is the only cool Heisei monster
>>22605675>>22606450He's a very "video game-y" monster, though. He's got the "evil doppleganger of the hero" thing going for him, combined with all his crazy powers... It makes sense that he always shows up in Godzilla games.
>>22606538Yeah but he’s also lame as fuck
>>22606597Sure, but there are only so many Godzilla monsters to go around, and there are even less "big bad final boss" monsters to choose from. You can't use Ghidorah or Mechagodzilla (and, to a lesser degree, Destoroyah) EVERY time you want a big Godzilla villain.
>>22606676Hedorah is underused as fuck considering how thematically coherent he is with what Godzilla is
>>22601375Hope we get an Ultra kaiju pack or these devs go on to make a full Godzilla or Ultraman game.>>22602534Unit-01, Unit-02, Sachiel and Jet Alone>>22602154I'm gonna guess Hedorah, Biollante and Anguirus.
>>22606792I'll agree with that. You could get a really good apocalyptic story out of Hedorah if done right.
>>22602173Monsterverse is a no, Passion Republic is on record as saying they're too expensive plus they'd have to negotiate with both Toho and WB, which would be a mess.>>22602534Anno wouldn't miss the opportunity to have his characters hang with Ultraman and Godzilla again I'm surePlus we're damn sure not getting Power Rangers/Sentai in given the meltdown that franchise is having stateside
>>22607208>Plus we're damn sure not getting Power Rangers/Sentai in given the meltdown that franchise is having statesideYou're probably right, but you never know. Hasbro might up for not doing anything and letting Passion Republic do all the work.
>>22601577are you the same guy that shits his pants in every gamera thread?
Considering Passion Republic pulled a WTF character pick with Camearra, do we think they might do the same with the Nemesis DLC? Could we get something like King Ghidorah, Mothra, Rodan, and Gabara?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uG4NsMykNA4The first teaser after the announcement, showing off King Ghidorah's silhouette like they did in Godzilla vs. King Ghidorah. Also, I read that apparently it's been confirmed on Discord that the Nemesis DLC is only going to have two kaiju in it, which is disappointing, but whatever.
>>22610916Eh, that's fine.
So, since the Nemesis pack is only going to have two monsters in it, who do we think is going to be Ghidorah's partner in crime? Another villain? SpaceGodzilla? Or will this be "We didn't get Ghidorah and Mothra in with the first batch, so let's get Ghidorah and Mothra in now."
>>22612294Mothra hopefully
>>22607208>Monsterverse is a no, Passion Republic is on record as saying they're too expensive plus they'd have to negotiate with both Toho and WB, which would be a mess.That's a shame. Though I have trouble believing getting the rights to MUTO or Behemoth would cost more than getting the rights to Godzilla, Mothra, or King Ghidorah.
If we're getting Heisei King Ghidorah (and we likely are, as that's Toho's go-to incarnation of the character), could we possibly get Mecha-King Ghidorah as his S-Class form? Or will he just get bigger?
>>22615858Maybe Grand King Ghidorah for his S-Class>>22612492True but remember they're dealing with a company like WB who could be harder to work with than Toho
>>22615858I hope not. Showa Ghidorah all the way
>>22616666I would love that, but Toho seems to hate using Showa Ghidorah for some reason. Like in the IDW comics, even when Ghidorah is portrayed as an alien and the story involves the Xiliens and is set on Planet X, they'll still use Heisei Ghidorah. It drives me crazy.
>>22605675Shut up Space Godzilla is coolHe's got them Gunbuster shoulders
>>22616930Yeah, there's something so silly yet charming about SpaceGodzilla. He's got these two goofy-ass crystals jutting out of his torso but the character is taken so seriously.
>>22615257>Though I have trouble believing getting the rights to MUTO or Behemoth would cost more than getting the rights to Godzilla, Mothra, or King GhidorahI'd imagine the collabs came from Toho approaching Passion Republic rather than the other way around so they allow it as long as they get some percentage of the profitsI could also imagine WB being way more Jewish about it compared to Toho ironically enough, like the MUTOs are their exclusive characters therefore have their own licensing fees>>22616680> but Toho seems to hate using Showa Ghidorah for some reason. Like in the IDW comics, even when Ghidorah is portrayed as an alien and the story involves the Xiliens and is set on Planet X, they'll still use Heisei Ghidorah. It drives me crazy.I mean at the end of the day what's really the difference between Showa and Heisei Ghidorah besides having different origins?
>>22618630>I mean at the end of the day what's really the difference between Showa and Heisei Ghidorah besides having different origins?They have different heads (Showa has the curved horns and the manes, while Heisei just has the straight horns), but the most important difference is that Showa has the classic Ghidorah warble-cackle-whatever you want to call it cry, while Heisei has the lame-ass "We reused Rodan's roar for some reason" roar.
>>22619037And the cool crest
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kp_7J9HDINcGet ready to "save the Earth" from the Smog Monster.
>>22621968Fuck yeah
Added to my wishlist
>>22621968Whew
>>22601375>>22621968FUCKING DAMMIT. It should have had Bagon
>>22623020Relax, anon. Rodan and Mothra aren't even in yet.
>>22623020Bagan fanboys disgust me. He isn't even the coolest unmade monster in his own franchise
>>22623020Who?
>>22623983>Gestures to Super Godzilla, Godzilla Studio Tour, and GodzibanHe isn't unmade, he's the obscure, rarely used character. He's the (OT era) Boba Fett of Godzilla.
I wonder if Toho charges the same amount for their unused concept monsters as they do with liscensing their official ones.
>>22624017He doesn't even have a cool design. Deathla is way cooler
>>22624032Deathla doesn't even have a design.
>>22624021For what it's worth, Toho does consider Bagan one of their "official" kaiju.
>>22624057Just from a description he's cooler.>>22624119People are acting like this fucker should be considered alongside Ghidorah as Godzilla's nemesis .Lame
>>22624139>People are acting like this fucker should be considered alongside Ghidorah as Godzilla's nemesis .Sure, that's silly, but there's nothing wrong with wanting him to show up more often in general. I'm honestly surprised he has only piece of merchandise to his name, and while he's obviously never going to be in a movie at this point, I wouldn't have a problem with him appearing in stuff like video games and comics.
>>22624220I have a problem with him showing up at all.God, you know what'd be the funniest shit ever?If Spacegodzilla, Destoroyah, and Bagan all show up only to get offscreened by Hedorah or Gigan
>>22624267Ahh, okay, so you're a Heisei hater. Alright, got it.
>>22624278The only good Heisei monster is Biollante
>>22624220he did show up in godziban for what it's worth
>>22624385Sure, and that was a nice surprise. I'm just surprised that Toho has this fully fleshed out official Godzilla-related kaiju and they never do anything with him. Like even something as minor as a Bagan issue of Godzilla Rivals would be nice.
>>22624946Because he's boring as shit
Kong won by the way, despite being younger and inexperience and no powerup
>>22625320Are you talking about the fight in Cairo? Because I would most certainly count the BEAST Glove as a power up.
>>22615858Would be cool if it grew the mane and turned into showa when doing the special move. Alternatively Kaiser Ghidorah, even tho no Monster X.
>>22625320if he couldn't properly knock out Godzilla or outright kill him, no he didn'tif anything Godzilla probably baited him so he could try and fire his new atomic breath
>>22626575Godzilla did get knocked out for a good minutes, long enough for Kong to drag Godzilla close to the portal. That Kong was not going for a kill too.
>>22627001Adam Wingard is probably going to say "Nuh uh it didn't"
I wonder what other Toho kaiju they're going to try and get into GigaBash in the future. Will they try for Mothra and Rodan eventually, once they figure out how to do flying kaiju? Will they include everyone's favorites, Jet Jaguar and Megalon?
>>22628605They don't WANT flying kaiju in the game. Rodan is a possibility since he can walk and maybe just fly as part of his super move but Mothra isn't going to be in there.
>>22621968My friend called Hedorah for some reason and I guess he was right
>>22628634>They don't WANT flying kaiju in the game.>Mothra isn't going to be in there.Oh? Have they said this officially? I know they'd have to figure out how a flying kaiju would "stand" and "walk" in the game, but I can't imagine them not being willing to try and figure that out eventually.
>>22628634Mothra can crawl.
>>22628848>>22628605>Mothra regular mode is Larvae form>Doesn't fly until S-Mode:^)
>>22628877You know, now that you mention it, considering Skorak, I wonder if a playable Mothra Larva would actually be doable.
I just want Gamera. I don't care what anyone else says or wants, I just want 4 Gamera monsters
>>22629662While I agree with you, it sounds like at this point we'll be lucky to get Gamera himself.
>>22629929I don't care if Rebirth wasn't the biggest success, people still liked it.Kadokawa, you get what you give with Gamera
>>22630389To be fair, Kadokawa saying 'no' to GigaBash is only a rumor at the moment. Maybe they said 'Yes, just not yet,' maybe they're still negotiating. Who knows?
>>22630736They should've given Rebirth a bigger budget.The shit in the artbook shouldn't have been wasted
Gamerabros… our comeback is right around the corner… right?
>>22631085I want to hope
>>22631250Any more of this?
>>22631293The artbook for Rebirth is awesome
>kong didn’t even knock Godzilla out>Godzilla’s stomps would have killed kong if not for the soft sand underneath them>Skar king would have died from the atomic breath if it hit him directly
>>22623020Even though he was designed as the game's Godzilla stand-in, Rawa's got a ton of that Bagan energy, especially in his S-Class mode.
Today's the day!
>>22628634>they don't want flying kaiju in their game>proceed to put Ghidorah in their game???
>>22633543He has legs.
>>22633543Yeah, what >>22633573 said. They're fine with monsters temporarily hovering (Rawa and a couple other base roster characters do that), but Mothra and Rodan (well, Heisei Rodan, at least) would have to permanently be in the air.
Full Nemesis DLC trailer!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TGyIpzw8xy4
>>22633543You're not all there, are you?
>>22633623>LOL PRIVATEDdid anyone save italso there's something real funny about Rawa and Wooley being the only two og characters in the thumbnail image, Wooley getting the Mike Wazowski treatment too
>>22633796>>LOL PRIVATED>did anyone save itHuh. That's weird. I don't understand why it was even unlisted, it's two hours before the DLC comes out...
>>22633573>>22633616>>22633629You can see in the new trailer that he flies during all of his attacksHe might be on the ground to walk but he's pretty much airborne 95% of the timeIf anything this makes Mothra and Rodan being even more possible
>>22633856Having just played as Ghidorah for a few matches, the person playing him in the trailer was jumping a lot. None of his attacks are set in the air, unless you use them while jumping, like the other characters. Only one attack makes him airborne - When he fully charges his hurricane wind attack, he leaps up.
The full trailer is back up, as well as this brand new video showcasing all six Toho kaiju.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zG5XgCox2gA
>Heisei GhidorahAngry
Is this the final DLC, any chance for more Ultra stuff.
>>22634907How are we supposed to know?
>>22635293Die bitch
>>22635354Gamera is taking care of that for me
>>22633856Dig yourself deeper, why don't ya?
>>22635368Killing you?
>>22634907>Is this the final DLCNot that they've said. The devs want to keep this going for as long as they can and add even more franchises.>any chance for more Ultra stuffI don't see why not. Who knows when, though.
>>22635560If they do add more Ultra stuff I'd like to see Gomora at least
>>22635601Yeah, we definitely need a better selection of Ultra Monsters. Baltan is good, but who the fuck wanted Camearra? Gomora, Red King, Zetton, Eleking, King Joe, Tyrant, Vakishim, Birdon, Sevenger, Golza, Gan-Q... There's a whole world's worth of better Ultra Monsters they could've chosen from. And even if they wanted "evil Ultra," they could've gone with Belial.
>>22635611I'm fine with Camearra but if they did another Ultra Pack I think it being based on one series/movie would work well for example an Ultraseven Pack: Ultraseven, King Joe, Eleking and Dinosaur Tank(I think he would make for a fun pick).
Why no mecha? With how much Dynamic is whoring Mazinger surely they can get him.
>>22635650To be fair, there's only been three DLC packs so far, and they probably wanted to hit the big three or four (Godzilla, Ultraman, Gamera, Kong) before trying for others.
Huh. If Hasbro is open to this sort of video game crossover, this gives me hope for eventually seeing the Zords in GigaBash.
>>22635820Huh? There's no way this is real.
>>22635837Posted on the official Ark Twitter and confirmed by multiple Ark and PR sites.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YUEpVTJWXTsSomeone modded Hedorah so that he sounds right.
>>22628877>implying you wouldn't want to style on other players as a Larvae without even needing to go moth-mode
>>22635535No, dying
>>22636766Why do you seem to just get extremely fuckass mad the moment Gamera comes up in any Kaiju discussion
>>22635370you're being weirdly defensive about this, anon
Gigabash isn't even the Kaiju game I want. Never been a fighting game guy
>>22637305What game did you wanted?
>>22637433Something more experimental I guess?I have a pitch but it's really, really weird.
