Is Nova the only case of that or are there other examples?
this was the picture that LITERALLY MADE ME AN ASS LOVER
holy fuck
I think i heard that some Capcom crossover had a character to promote their series that would end up cancelled or something
i'm still salty about ghost getting canceled
At least Nova's mission pack was alright.
I can't stop myself from gawking at her thighs in the mission select. [spoilers]
Are the 3 packs worth 15 bucks?
I enjoy the "hero" gameplay that the sc2 campaigns focused on, although a lot of it was incredibly simplified.
BBBBBBBRrrrrrrrrrrrrrRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAP
The mission variety is solid. Worth it if you like to achievement hunt/replay R.T.S missions.
I find it quite sad that in most media she's in Blizzard really pounds in the reader/player's head that Nova is just a regular ghost and she is outclassed by Sarah "The Chosen One" Kerrigan in every way
Ingrid. She was supposed to be a character in Capcom Fighting Evolution which got cancelled so they ended up shoehorning her into a port of Street Fighter Alpha 3 for the GBA with some crazy backstory about how she's from the future and some kind of sun goddess that's also the true owner of Bison's psycho power and supposedly could rival Gill for story level power tiers. That's to date her only actual appearance though, as a joke character in an obscure port that wasn't very good anyway.
She's no regular ghost. She's the best active ghost by far. She's just a distant second to Kerrigan since Kerrigan was so stupidly powerful even as a human that the confederacy rewrote the psionic scale just for her and put implants in her brain to drain her powers to a controllable level.
Well Kerrigan is practically an in universe demi god and part of an age old prophecy which is kind of hard to match up to for your average Terran anyway.
He means pretransformation. If you read into the books, it's revealed that Kerrigan was OP even as a human.
She was also in the PSP version, which is a significantly better port. I think she was also in that awful Capcom Fighting Jam.
She was made ugly-er in the Nova Covert OPS mission pack.
One user posted pics and the first thing you'll notice is the manjaw they gave her.
Strangely enough, her model in HotS was not touched.
That somehow doesn't really surprise me. I think I've read up on that backstory on her Starcraft Wiki page though so I might have already had reason to suspect that.
She was never in the GBA version of Alpha 3, only on the PSP one. Capcom Fighting Jam was her first appearance.
Can you confirm that ?
Fug you're right, GBA port added Jun, Maki, and Eagle. PSP kept those and added Ingrid.
Why the fuck is 3 MAX still stuck on PSP, I want to play that shit online Capcom.
They did make her face less attractive for some reason but she's still reasonably hot.
Could you post some pics?
Outside of it being a moba, hots and its devs are pretty good compared to the rest of nublizzard.
Just google it/watch some footage on Youtube.
Just did.
The body is still fine but her face is not just a little less attractive, she literally has the face of a fatso.
What the fuck were they thinking?
Aren't they aware that she got popular because of her pretty face and her booty and not because of whatever lore she carries?
Fucking nublizzard.
