So, possible acquirer:
Coming Community Death Battle is Raven (Post-Flashpoint) or Raven (Teen Titans) vs Marceline Abadeer.
- Disney - Did Rooster Teeth shows look like Disney friendly at all? Will there even be positive synergy? Also doubt Disney would do it, considering they are still recovering from the FOX buyout
- Microsoft - Can potentially revive Rooster Teeth Games
- Amazon - No Amazon Prime exclusive Death Battle
- Electronic Arts - Uh no thanks.
- Some Japanese firms - depending on which firm. Doubt objectivity.
- Some "other" firms - worst case. With foreseeable political influence.
Coming Community Death Battle is Raven (Post-Flashpoint) or Raven (Teen Titans) vs Marceline Abadeer.

To be fair that was a long time ago. They're treating Mojang and Bethesda better.

Any Japanese firms you have in mind? I'm keeping an open mind about that one due to RWBY's popularity in Japan.

If psychonauts 2 would be good I would trust Microsoft more, as they're already gave enough money for double fine to leave some content in game, which already gives hope to me.
Rare from one point is example of not good situation, however they can use budget good. There's good amount of games which Microsoft supports and which are good. New Metro game was pretty good.
S. T. A. L. K. E. R. 2 also is pretty hopeful, hellblade 2(if I spelled game right), and etc.
- 10,748

Also KI slapped
- 15,706
- 11,448
Yeah. With that and letting Banjo into Smash, it's clear Microsoft is at least trying to make up for the past with Rare.

KI had success despite odds being against it
- 22,760

Speaking of KI
im trying to speculate here
S5 had three 3D fights
S6 had 5 if you include the SFM
S7 i wont bring up given it had 20 episodes
we had Yoda vs Mickey for SFM and soon Mikasa vs Blake for 3D
so if we follow this season
hoping Liu Kang vs Jago would happen to be in 3D but doubt it'll happen this season

so 4 3D fights and SFM this season

- 10,688

i'm guessing 4 3D fights and 2 SFMs
- 10,748
- 17,698
The average for each season is like 3-5 isn’t it usually?
- 3,794

I may sound like a heretic, but i would be ok with Liu Kang vs Jago being a sprite fight, only if they will not mess it up like Sub-zero vs Glacius

Fight Game Matches are generally a waste of 3D matchups IMO
There are exceptions like Ryu vs Jin and (to a much lesser extent) Goro vs Machamp, but the former was a torrian thing which gives it way higher animation standing. Sorry-not-sorry but i'd prefer my 3D animations to be with matches that do a better job at taking advantage of those mechanics
Like you can talk about how heihachi vs geese had good models or whatever, but at the end of the day Blake vs Mikasa is gonna have a lot greater of a need for 3D environments.

Possibly
Focusing from
S4-Four 3D Fights
S5-Four 3D Fights
S6-Four 3D+SFM Fights
S7-Four 3D+Two SFM Fights
And you sound like a heretic
Jago Sprite is ass and unlike Heihachi who had at least some decent one's
I don't see how Fight Game MU are a waste for 3D
If you can make GoroChamp look like Gold imagine what you can do for Liu Kang vs Jago
- 15,706
- 11,448
Captain Falcon's sprites are also ass and we all know how Falcon vs Cage went.
- 22,760
- 49,480
Eh good point
To me it wouldn't gel with me that Goro was the only Character from MK to have a 3D fight
- 10,688
- 4,810
DB does custom sprites all the time
I'm gonna keep it real with you chief, GoroChamp wasn't that good.
- 3,794
- 8,837
What about this one?
Or how about not using custom sprites at all and just use their original sprites from the games?
- 10,688
- 4,810
Jago's OG sprite is so bad tho, most of KI's sprites are
- 3,794
- 8,837
Eh, i kinda like Jago's sprite from KI2 because it just has charm
- 3,794
- 8,837
DB's custom sprites are always hit or miss tho
On one hand we have Ryuko's sprites and on the other... Zuko's And Todoroki's sprites
- 22,760
- 49,480
Not all of them are good
It is considering it's one of the only Fights from last season that was worthwhile
Eh looks ass tbhWhat about this one?
Or how about not using custom sprites at all and just use their original sprites from the games?
This is why Jago vs Liu Kang should be in 3D
- 22,760
- 49,480
Ryuko sprites were from Grand Summoners
The only one you can say was customize was her Shinpu& Kisaragi form
His sprite existed for awhile tho but yeah
- 10,688
- 4,810
Leo vs Jason, Cable vs Booster, Obi-Wan vs Kakashi, Beerus vs Galaxia, Wally vs Sonic, Winter Solider vs Red Hood, Sabrewulf vs Talbain, Red vs Blue, Hulk vs Broly
There are fights that deserve the 3D treatment much more and I will die on that hill
If you put it in another season, maybe, but this is not worthy of it over its contenders
- 3,794
- 8,837
Oh, i feel kinda dumb now lolRyuko sprites were from Grand Summoners
The only one you can say was customize was her Shinpu& Kisaragi form
Well then as an example of good custom sprites there's Static and Crona
- 15,706
- 11,448
Static's sprites are probably from a MUGEN character. Crona's are almost certainly custom, however.
- 22,760
- 49,480
The only good parts of S7 I should say
Maybe not this season due to MUs like Cloud vs Link 2, Galactus vs Unicron and Cole vs Alex being obvious ones and deserve it more
Next season easy it does given we're going back to the 20 episodes format
- 22,760
- 49,480
Static were mostly puppet Animation
- 3,794
- 8,837
Nope, Static's sprites are custom too
- 15,706
- 11,448
Damn, Static's puppet sprites are REALLY good, then.

They/Them- 21,389

Got any specific MU in mind?
- 15,706
- 11,448
Steven vs Star is the most likely candidate.
- 3,794
- 8,837
Star vs Steven, duh
XSOULOFCINDERX

I don't really for that MU. Never really got into those shows.
- 15,706
- 11,448
Well it's better than having Genos vs War Machine as the animated fight.
- 22,760
- 49,480
what they said
while it's possible they could save it for the second half they may get it over with the teased contestants besides Link vs Cloud to make the second half unpredictable
