New character: Martial Artist
Durability 2/4
Speed 2/4
Melee 4/4
Firearms: 1/4

Traits:
Knuckley
Backstabber
Don't make me angry
Stubby Fingers

Ability:
By pressing RMB, character gives an effective but less powerful kick (6 damage) that makes NPCs fall (like falling from a slippery banana peel), similar to primitive lunge. The kick can also be upgraded so you can kick the NPC away from you. Martial artist's melee can be upgraded to 5/4 similar to soldiers (punches are faster and deals more damage)

this is just a custom character

quaint crag
#

yeah

runic venture
deep merlin
#

figure it out

runic venture
#

I dont wanna

#

Elaborate

deep merlin
#

weak defence

runic venture
#

I actually think the idea is alright

#

Would fit in SoR

deep merlin
#

Im not gonna pull the "i had this idea befoer" card but even then

This is just sligthy modified gorilla

runic venture
#

this idea is pretty good actually.

deep merlin
#

dude

#

this character

#

is a talking gorilla that stuns

runic venture
deep merlin
#

lets compare

#

how would martial artists differ from gorilla gameplay wise

#

how does vampire differ from cannibal gameplay wise

runic venture
#

vampire can play more stealthy if you wanna go for election as sucking someone's blood makes everyone else annoyed.

in comparison with the cannibal you gotta murder people constantly, getting in battles every 44 pixels you walk.

deep merlin
#

alright now

#

martial artists vs gorilla

runic venture
deep merlin
#

dude i know the differences from vampire to cannibal this is about why martial artists in my opinion is not a good option for a character

runic venture
#

It's a comparison

#

you just said you wanted to compare

deep merlin
#

dudes you know what i meant

runic venture
#

is there any other meaning I'm not getting?

#

marital artist and gorilla are both melee specialists, but the martial artist is capable of conversation out of the gate, and can have non-gorilla party members

deep merlin
#

yes

deep merlin
#

anyways gorilla is based on getting basically adventage on melee combat

runic venture
#

that's confusing

deep merlin
#

gorilla is strong and is based on getting adventage by the first hit on melee combat and then start mashin til kill, is gameplay is furter deepened by the addition of gorilla followers

martial artist is strong and is based on getting adventage by getting a bunch of hits to deal damage then til kill (or presumably, stun locking), the addition of backstabber and knuckler is basically "wait dont use the kick! just punch them!" witch basically again is getting adventage by the first hit on melee and then mash til dead, you have to other tools other than those pure offence ones, has no purpose other than being worse wrestler and again

this feels like just a custom character

and WHY is it a sequel character? none of its mechanics had anything to posible features of sor2

#

while reading more carefuly i noticed this is no longer a altered gorilla

#

this is a worse wrestler

#

think about it, the wrestler ability is based around dealing big damage and knockback while having a big chance to stun

#

and lacks any other adventages

runic venture
#

The wrestler can annoy people through picking up personal properties and while it's true they're both melee based characters the martial artist is way more focused on crushing specific people rather than ruining entire furniture filled buildings just to kill somebody.

It also appears to be (based on the ability) it is more "combo" based as the wrestler is usually chasing behind the person to knock them back but the martial artist tries to knock the target and then begin to end their life with punches and kicks.

Would be nice if the suggester could elaborate more on the character but this is all there is to it and it just works. the end.

implying uranium would elaborate instead of jumping towards insulting both of us for not understaing his genious

#

eric let's not

deep merlin
#

ok sorry

raw crater
#

thank you

deep merlin
#

that was fast

raw crater
#

also I personally think it's just missing some things

#

the only thing "unique" I guess? about this is the ability

#

and not much at that

#

everything else is just like how eric says, custom character-ish

deep merlin
raw crater
#

I feel like this would need something more

deep merlin
#

ima rewrite my old idea for the dropkick attack

#

wonder how can i turn that into a character

runic venture
