MegaMan Legends 3 is REAL, AND IT'S SPECTACULAR...LY IN 3-D

[Flame]

No it isn't, at least not on my pc. The only image the blog with the name poll has is the usual one of her =/

They fixed it.
Too bad.

The new hair would do her a lot of good, I think.  I didn't appreciate how they shortened it after the poll was concluded. 

I would have been fine with her winning of she at least stayed with the same hair. She DID look nice. Instead, they changed it to give her a big forehead and make it worse. ugh.

[borockman]

It grows on me though. I should try to give her more chance.

[Flame]

I cant get used to it. I really dislike big forehead characters. I cant explain why, but I just really don't like her current design.

[Hypershell]

I know what you mean.  Nothing wrong with liking a character who actually has bangs.  To me, big foreheads look cute on kids (and I mean LITTLE kids, not 14-year-old MegaMan protagonists), and dignified on the elderly.  That's it.  Otherwise they look blegh.

They fixed it.
Too bad.

Blast.

A cookie to Vix for preserving it for us, then.

I think now would be a good time for me to create a dedicated Legends 3 image folder on my comp, rather than shoving it in with the rest of my MegaMan stuff.  Also still need to save those summary images they posted for the NPC event.

Hm, that particular 'redesign' of Sephira/Aero was actually a piece of fanart by Score, a member of the Capcom Unity forums.

I knew I'd seen that before; just couldn't remember the artist's name.

Same here, but that saves the argument then.

[Flame]

I could have sworn it was one of the redesigns before they landed on the last one.

More specifically, Score drew it, Ian colored it (from what I've seen Score seems to be more adept at colored pencils; reminds me of myself years ago).

It's on his DeviantArt page.

I like how they updated Sephira's design to shorten her hair. Won't stop people from complaining that she looks like she belongs in a Pokemon game instead of a Rockman game. 

[Flame]

She looked more Pokemon before, TBH.
And yet, I'd rather her look like a pokemon reject than the way she currently looks.

Actually it looked a lot more Pokemon (and stupid) with the original hair, I would be fine with that other design.

Fans recently selected Aero to be the game's new heroine. Now Capcom is giving fans a chance to select her voice. Yes, this is the latest user contribution component for the 3DS Mega Man Legends revival.

Capcom had three voice actresses audition for the role. You'll get to listen to some samples from the audition and select the one you think best fits the character. The catch is, Capcom isn't revealing the voice actresses names or past work, so the decision will be based exclusively off the samples.

To take part in the Japanese voice actress vote, visit the Japanese dev room (login required). Voting will be held through January 11.

In other Legends news, Capcom opened a Japanese page detailing the Legends series as a whole. Visit this page for a look at the series and its characters.

The page lists the following features of Legends 3:

    * Uses Capcom's MT Framework tools (this was mentioned in a recent development blog post)
    * Will have a number of new characters, starting with the user-selected Aero.
    * "Free Running" has been powered up. You'll be able to run through a massive open field that has height variances. The abundant reactions, sub events and gimmicks that have won the series favor are being powered up as well.
    * The game will have a variety of fields, including massive unexplored ruins.
    * They're currently looking into multiplayer elements.

Possible multiplayer and "massive open field" really caught my attention. Can't wait for sum screens!

[Align]

Multiplayer elements is gonna be trading or something equally inane. Just you watch!

You'll be able to run through a massive open field that has height variances.

So... it's Ocarina of Time?

[Hypershell]

I'm reminded of ZX Advent and our massive excitement at converting some energy...

All Legends games had height variance.  That said, it's nice to know that Capcom, unlike the rest of the world, doesn't bury their heads in the sand when something old happens to actually work.  Nintendo could stand to remember that with Mario Kart.

Hopefully this IS the new official take... or at least the general direction. Looks infinitely, WORLDS better. Makes me feel like there is less going on here. STILL not simplistic enough to be Legends, but hey... beggers and all that.

Thanks for addressing the FAIL of the FAIL CHOICE, Capcom.

[Hypershell]

A new year brings new localization.  We went from Aero, to Sephira, back to Aero again.  Because, you know, Aero being the Japanese name and four letters long makes it superior.  Obviously.  >.>

I'd like to know where the hell these people were when Capcom came up with the term Megamerge.  *shudder*

[Zan]

I really wonder what you're referring to here.

[The Great Gonzo]

Damn purists. >.>

The only good thing I see in this? If the English fanbase continues to reject all localization changes, there'll at least be enough consistency between the two versions to make debates easier, and there won't be as much arguing over terms.

Hopefully.

[Hypershell]

A bit of wishful thinking there, I think.  Especially since we already got the "be careful what you wish for" lesson in localization with X6's Maverick names.  Not that I minded, but much bitching and eyebrow-raising went on with the rest of the internets.

I was referring to Superdee and Algin's comments about multiplayer.

Sigh. I have to remember that this is the Megaman fandom.

Hey, at least it's not the Sonic fandom...

Word.

Aero's model is complete



Personally love the cel-shaded look. Was instantly reminded of Wind Waker.
