Posted by Paleface on July 23, 2016 at 12:47:05 EST in reply to So the KoF IX demo is out. This is KoF allright. Uglier than I remember, and somewhat floatier than I remember, but still KoF. I'm surprised they had the balls to include Sylvie Paula Paula as a character representative of the game. Not a big fan of her design, but at the same time she's got something energetic that I can appreciate. Her walking back animation is hilarious. This in stark contrast to the other newcomer Shun'ei, who has the lamest design imaginable. Although even he looks acceptable next to the Kingdom Hearts reject that is Meitenkun, another newcomer, who's on his team. Anyway, good to see KoF back. Graphically it isn't anything special and in terms of gameplay it doesn't reinvent the wheel, but it's good old fun. from Rockman Pocket.

That's good to hear! I'm not keen on some of the new animations and characters either (although some of the other new characters look pretty neat!), but the developer video and the smiles on the faces of people playing demos at fighting game tournaments convinced me the game would just be fun. Haven't played the demo much yet. Did you find the AI challenging? I noticed it's on a 5-point scale now rather than the old Neo-Geo 8-point scale.
