Once upon a time, he was skipping three damn games. But Capcom cant stop sucking him off. I havent seen a more forced attempt at making a character the flagship character since Lightning. Doesnt Jill do the same shit as Chris? Wasnt she immensely more popular, earning her spot in Marvel vs Capcom before him? I dont understand why they are so terrified to use Jill. --- A show of kindness may not do much help, but a show of cruelty may do much harm. <cite>cuttin_in_farm posted [p:953957427] in Is Jill Va...

The japanese has a phobia with using female characters once they get to a certain age.

MadDewg 05/17/21 11:48:41 AM #16:	Drunk Cobra posted... Whoa. Is that why the Yakuza 2 cop lady is so young? Most likely. Hell the director of the yakuza series actually admitted that they were a little envious at ghost of tsushima's success. His reasoning is that sucker punch easily pulled off having a normal middle-aged guy to be the game's hero (along with the majority of the supporting characters being in the same age range). He was like had he or anyone else suggested to do the same for the main yakuza series (a older, age appropriate or not as handsome looking kiryu), the higher ups and shareholders most likely will always shoot it down, because in their eyes the japanese will only buy games with youthful looking major characters.
