So, since we already know who the next two DLC characters are, thanks to the leak. Should we expect Yun-Seong, Setsuka, and Aeon as likely candidates for Season 2? It looks that way since those three were placed rather high on the popularity poll. =/
Well, much of the current page of this thread, and in particular the second half, have already engaged with this question, so that's a good place to start in looking for perspectives regarding your inquiry. But basically I would say that the short list is Lizardman (or more specifically an Aeon style/Lizard man hybrid, but leaning heavily towards the classic build, but with axe and shield), Hwang (or Yun-seong), Li Long and Rock (or another guest character). I make this prediction based on the current pool of untapped early-narrative characters and the fact that the first season was all female; I feel pretty certain Namco/PS didn't do this by accident and that there will be roughly parallel (meaning among other things, all-male) structure to the second season pass. However, it is possible that the second season will map a little more closely to popularity and the benefit of varied styles, with an alternative make-up of Lizardman/Aeon, Hwang (or Yun-Seong), Setsuka, and Hilde (or a guest character). My money is on the former over the latter though.
