Why won't you take this to PMs or to the general discussion section?

 

Wang Yi of Wei was the only one. Zhu Rong is completely fictional, as are all the named nanman. Meng Huo wasn't a nanman, but a han chinese leading nanmans.

This era is so intertwined with fiction from books/plays/video games/movies/random fables that it's hard for me to make out what actually happened sometimes, lol.

Anywho, yes, we should end this topic. It's a little out of hand.

I don't think Sophitia will be dead. I they'll pull a "well, everyone though she was dead, but then she was like 'lol, jk, I'm fine'"

Who knows, though? We'll have to wait and see.

You know what grinds my gears? Lindsay Lohan.

Sorry, I had to.

But... Yeah... *coughs* Back on topic. Natsu's badass.

 

Pats got some sick TC moves/frames. Im starting to like his style... A lot.

 

I read all the comments and its like 5 I LOVE IVY/NATSU then 2 This is stupid comments and then like 1 per page is like woo zwei. Well i can look foreword to my main not being overplayed :D

 

All I want is a demo to play. Watching a demo is good, but playing a demo is so much better. Kayane, you are so lucky.

I'm actually looking forward to playing as Zwei. If Raphael doesn't reappear, he will likely be my new main as well. Glad to hear he probably won't be overplayed. I don't like playing as the most used characters.

 

Zwei looks great gameplay wise, but I think I'll have to edit him because I think his costume looks gay.
