Which character would you want to be?


If you had to be a Soul Calibur II character, who would you pick? I'd probably pick Link.

Oh, I have so many favorites... and three I loathe... (Those damn sisters-- Cassandra and Sophitia-- and Raphael!)

I'm a girl, so I'd say Talim, just because she is AWESOME. She may be little, but she is effin' quick and deadly with those elbow blades of hers! For a second choice... I'd probably go with Ivy or Seung Mina. Mostly likely Ivy, but only if she gets rid of that dorky-lookin' captain's outfit.

If I was a guy, I'd love to be Cervantes. ^_^ Or Maxi. I'd say Kilik, but I know a friend of mine would take dibs on him first. I like to play Yunsung, but I wouldn't want to be him. With that red hair, he makes me think of Kuwabara from Yu Yu Hakusho... (Odd, I know.)

And I have to defend Heihachi. Don't get me wrong, I'm not a conneiusseur (sp?) of Tekken. I've played maybe three matches and seen about half of the anime movie. But Heihachi is pretty wicked, and considering he doesn't even have a weapon, he has to be tough. ^_^ He's not a favorite of mine, but damn useful in the Weapon Master mode when you want to kick some @$$. \m/ Rock on, Heihachi-san!

Pure wonderment here... why is it that Maxi's, Yunsung's, and Nightmare's "alternates" are completely different (hair color, for example), and no one else's is?

Id be either charade of inferno which strangely enough no one mentioned...

reply

I'd be Talim, or Cassandra

Talim is swift with two blades, my best characters always have that attribute, and the two weapons.

Cassandra has that cool horizontal slash, then the vertical slash thingy lol

reply

Gotta be Raphael. He rules.

I would be Link too because Link is the coolest!!!

reply

I would have to be Nightmare because he looks so cool, or Tristie of weapon master mode because he lives forever (also i think he would look like shun out of vitua fighter)

reply

If I would choose whoms skills and fighting abilities I would want, it would definetley be Taki or Ivy.

but as a guy, I would totally like to have the physical appearance of either Yunsung or Killik.

reply

Well, being a gal, I'd have to say Cassandra (I love her 2nd costume) or Seung Mina. If I was a guy I'd be either Voldo, who's my best char, or Nightmare. I might be Link too, just for pointy earness lol

reply

I'd be Yoshimitsu. He has some friggin' crazy moves, and I love that flag!

reply

Xianghua
or Talim

if i were a guy, link or nightmare

reply

Not that I would want to be him (I want to be the Fried {Siegfried for you people who don't know, and for those of you who say that the Fried isn't in SCII, you haven't been paying attention enough), but I would be Berserker. He seems like a big loner whom nobody likes. That's me.

reply

Yoshimitsu, he kicks a$$!!!!!!

"But Heihachi is pretty wicked, and considering he doesn't even have a weapon"

He has no weapon? How can a character in a weapon-based fighting game have no weapon oO
I own the GC-Version with Link, but I thought Heihachi (who I know from Tekken very well) has got a weapon like...a katana...well, at least that would suit him...so what can you get for Heihachi in Weapon Master Mode? Nothing? ._.

And for the Topic...well, I really like Voldo...yeah, he's ugly und freaky and such, but imagine a dark alley and Voldo who's crawling at you with that really freaky on-all-fours-move...reminds me of The Exorcist, where the girl's crawling down the stairs in almost the same way like Voldo did...that freaked the hell out of me...

...and before you could fight him, you would die on a heart-attack...yeah...I love that freak :D

reply

Heihachi uses gauntlets for defense, but aside from that, he's weaponless

reply

i would love to be Ivy, then i would *beep* myself the whole day!^^ lol

or Cervantes or astaroth, because they're sooo cool

reply

Tied for first: Necrid & Nightmare
Necrid can use all of the weapons and Nightmares just a crazy evil badass... Plus, If I was Nightmare... I'd never have to worry about losing my soul to a big eyeball sword if I ever came into contact with Nightmare AKA Siegfried...

Voldo & Kilik also cool too... But their not as good as Necrid, Nightmare or Spawn.

Heihachi is incredibly gay. He isn't even like Ryu & shouldn't even be compared to Ryu. If I swing my weapon at him he defends it with... his hands??? Then, a second later he loses them... After they've been sliced off!!!

I would like to be either Maxi or Kilik. Maxi because he simply has really cool weapons and is very strong (by contrast, I feel like some skinny weakling, which I admit I am actually).

Kilik because he has a brilliant weapon and is very agile and quick moving. He also has a very interesting character history.

That´s easy!! I would totally be Ivy!! But.. I´ve never heard of Link or Spawn... I have this game, and I haven´t seen those characters.. do you have to cheat to get them?

SPOILER ALERT

I don't know about Spawn. I've never actually seen him in this game, I've always wondered if it's because I haven't unlocked him/her/it yet. It's very confusing. I think you have to go through the weapon master mode, or whatever the hell it is, to actually unlock some of the characters, costumes, fighting arenas, and new weapons. You can unlock quite a lot of things just by winning a few fights in the weapon master mode.

Apparently you can unlock Heihachi, from the Tekken games, as well but I haven't come across him yet. To play as Seung Mina you have to fight through weapon master as well. You also get to fight against the lizardman if you play through weapon master.

However, I think you can only play as Link in a particular edition of the game. I've got Soul Caliber II on the Nintendo Gamecube, so I think to play as Link you have to have the Gamecube version. If you have a version of Soul Caliber II on another console, I don't think you can play as Link.

It is a bit unfair if you ask me, but it's no surprise really considering Link is an Nintendo character. I don't know if the PS2 version has a special character or not. Link is only available on the Gamecube version.

But to be honest you aren't missing much in my opinion. Perhaps I am just not a Link fan but there is nothing special about him in Soul Caliber II. He isn't exactly the best fighter in the game. I think Ivy is the best, followed closely by Xianghua, Seung Mina, and several others.

PS: I think Charade is a bit pointless.

reply

Heihachi was in my game as a standard character... But that´s maybe cuz I have PS2...

Oh, so they mean that Link!! Now I get the picture!

Yes, I don´t see why we need Charade at all!! He´s just a stupid mimic, just as Mokujin in the Tekken series.

I agree with Ivy being the best fighter! I always get trouble when I meet her in battles. I often have to do it over again, because I usually lose against her. I´m almost always Ivy whenever I play, but that doesn´t stop the game from picking her as an opponent. If I fought against other people, like in the game, I would be very surprised if I had to beat myself as an opponent. Kinda bizarre...

In no order:

Night Terror- This guy is Nightmare/Inferno's Ultimate form, not to mention having the complete Soul Edge!

Nightmare- He's Inferno in the form of possessed Knight (Siegfried) or possessed armor (SC III Nightmare. He's still Inferno though.)

Inferno- This guy is the very soul of Soul Edge itself! Since it has the memories of all the warriors it had slain, it would also have the memories of where treasure is located, not to mention great fighting abilty! This goes for Nightmare and Night Terror as well!

Zasamael- This guy has immense knowledge, not to mention powerful magic. If he finds a way to somehow not experiance that "sinking into Hell" everytime he comes back to life, he will probably get over his suicidal urges.

Olcadan- This guy is a master warrior and is really strong. This guy believes in nothing but getting stronger and wishes to fight strong oppenents. Sort of like Misturigi, actually, but without the sense of a mercenary.

Edgemaster- This guy has been around for a very long time and is a master warrior. He also can go into an evil form.

Ende (From Chronicles of the Sword)- Another master warrior. I wonder what it will be like to live this guy's life.

Seigfried- A knight who, despite killing his father and turning into Nightmare, is a fierce warrior who would fight to the death.

Mistrugi- A war-like Samurai who only wishes to get stronger and fight a suitable oppoent.

The Cadet (From Chronicles of the Sword)- A powerful general who took out two countries and a rebellion with his forces alone, and then took out his own country due to its tyranical ruler. Is actually a very good person.
My version of the cadet single-handedly took out took out Ende and Strife, a possesser of Soul Edge, without using Soul Calibur.

Talim (sp?)
