Topic: What abilities/moves do YOU want to see in LoS2?

[jestercolony]

Okay, so with all these new facts and tibits coming out for Lords of Shadow 2, I wanted to start a new topic that is based around the overall abilities of Lord Dracula. What abilities and moves do you want our good ol' Prince of Darkness to have during it's release? I personally enjoyed the combat system of the first game (I actually wrote a guide for it, but took it down some time ago; but I plan on doing a huge CV walkthrough project just as soon as I can get my hands on a PSP to play DXC again.)


Here is what I want to see -

 - Mist Form
 - Bat Form
 - Wolf Form
 - Teleportation (Hellfire)
 - Ultimate Form (final form)

Anything you guys want to see?

- Hellfire
- Soul Steal
- Dark Metamorphosis
- Demonic Megiddo
- Destruction Beam
- Fatal Rain
- Bloody Storm (?)
- A spear (He is a impaler right?)
- Bat swarm
- Teleport (that can be used for dodging AND to acess another areas quickly, like a library card)
- Familiars (bats, wolfs and all sort of monsters or humans to be manipulated)
- Dracula's creditcard (like Batman's creditcard)

I thought that this thread was supposed to be about LoS2, but what you guys just described were all the abilities of the Dracula from the old cannon. This Dracula is different. I like what I saw in the demo, but I think that they can be taken farther (and from what I hear, they will be). Here's what I would like to see:

- Elemental properties that give certain skills special effects as well as enemies that have different elemental resistances and weaknesses that can be exploited
- Mist form to avoid enemy attacks and transverse certain areas
- Buffs that enhance your weapons (examples: void sword heals you more, demon claw attack speed increases)
- Combos will your weapons that end with a devastating finishing move. (example: after a combo with the void sword, Dracula stabs the ground with it and a bunch of void blades come out of the ground attacking all near by enemies as an AoE finisher)
- A passive survival ability that increases your speed, strength, and defense by 10% when your health drops below 10%. Sort of an all or nothing scenario like something you would expect from some one when they are cornered and they are mere inches away from dying.
- A double (or maybe triple) jump
- Teleporting short distances when climbing structures

The ability to turn it off without having to get off my couch.

It's about what we want to see in LoS2, not about LoS2. And if they want to see old school stuff, what's the problem?

[Pfil]

I want every ability ever seen from Dracula and every ability ever seen from Alucard, and some new ones if possible.
It could be cool to be an all-powerful Dracula that blasts everything in his way.

[Lelygax]

I want to see a move where Drabriel turns men in women, like Dmitri does.

[Neobelmont]

Cookie Monster form  Not a puff of smoke.

[Kingshango]

Any form of flight, weather it be momentary or not. Even levitation is acceptable.

Would you accept super jumps or warping between to nearby points like over a large gap?

[Maedhros]

A double jump is something that will happen near the end of the game, that's for damn sure!

I want to see some sub-weapons, some magic, like Hellfire or some shit... that would be cool.

Super jumps are fine.

A double jump is something that will happen near the end of the game, that's for damn sure!

Double jump has been confirmed from one of Destructoids previews IIRC.

[Inccubus]

-Wall Crawling, fuck ledges and pits and fall damage this is supposed to be the king of all vampires.
-Teleportation, see above.
-Demon form modeled after old canon.
-Wolf form.
-Bat form.
-Mist form.

Unfortunately, I don't see us getting anything more than "Legacy May Cry".

[Shiroi Koumori]

The dragon form for more than one stage.

[Munchy]

The ability to jump/fly/whatever some platforming parts without invisible walls interfering.
