Fatal Fury Heroines: Terry Bogard

[Kim Foster]

According to the game, she's actually Terry Bogard, the male main character of the franchise transformed into a woman to fit into the all female cast of Fatal Fury: Heroines.

There is a reason, revealed in story mode, why the cast is wearing skimpy, revealing costumes...

Guess they'll have to change his nickname from Buster Wolf to Busty Wolf. Certain advantages in Fight! probably aren't applicable to this game. :D

First of all, I am frustrated by this game in general, only because I am interested in all fighting games and I'm not sure I can adequately respond to the sideways glances of my wife and sons in getting this one.

Second, I am not at all bothered by a female Terry character.  BUT I AM bothered by them insisting that it actually is the real Terry.  I don't think any story reason is going to convince me otherwise of this.

Third, SNK characters are probably my fave characters in any series and Terry is my favorite among those.  Thus, my difficulties.

If it helps, Terri Bogard is  the 'real' Terry Bogard in the sense he was transformed into a female form through the machinations of the game's BBEG not because he has always been a woman inside or out and the situation is temporary.  Its referred to as real in that it really happened (Not a dream sequence or a "What if!" as comics used to say). That's the impression I got from the description and trailers. I guess it was done to keep up the tradition of having Terry in Fatal Fury games (and because its a little funny) even if it was supposed to be an all female game. And if they'd done Joe they'd run into some issues in the states...(Add a breast wrap  maybe? :D)

I have no problem then with gender swap shenanigans, but they could still do some annoying stuff with the story.

Then again, maybe I'm putting WAY too much on this story in the first place...

I'm not sure from what I read if the game will be 'canon' (as much as that means in fighting game franchises). I don't think it'll result in many lasting change except maybe some saucy jokes an sight gags. lol

I think they missed a golden opportunity of retconning a daughter of Terry and May into existence as a female counterpart to Rock Howard.

Still better than Arcana Heart.

Terry and Mary or Terry and Mai?

Mai will never betray Andy, never! xD

[Christopher Peter]

I assume he meant Mary.  Someone else said they could have just used Alice also.  

I haven't heard great things about it.  It's still on my radar to get at some point, but I'm a little worried about how fanservice-y it looks.

[Doresh]

Yeah, I'm not entirely sure why I turned Blue Mary and Mai into a DBZ fusion, but I somehow did o_O

And at least they're also working on a new Samurai Shodown, so it's not all cringe.

[Alejo Gabriel Marello]

I would love to see a fan art of May :)

How could I simulate a character who can 'charge' their attacks so even
Basic blow do "chip damage" if blocked but can still be evaded to avoid
damage.

[Alejo Gabriel Marello]

Hi Kim.

The Element that you need to do "chip damage" is Always Does Damage.

In order to Power Up and make other moves to have the Always Does Damage, you have some options:

Taunt (Element Addition): it will allow to use the Always Does Damage on the next Special Move.

Buff: with this element you can add Always Does Damage to all special Moves if you have enough Elements.

You will need to add a custom Element for allowing those to work with Basic Moves, but that's it.

Huh, I thought there was a way to temporarily add Elements to your Basic in RAW...

But the above would cover still being able to Evade/Dodge attack to avoid even 'chip' damage?

[Alejo Gabriel Marello]

Regarding your question, the RAW  does not allow to avoid 'chip' damage by evading, you will always be damaged from Always Does Damage Element.

However, said Element had been revamped for 2nd edition on the way you expect.

Temporarily Buffing Basics: I think that the only way, on RAW, is using a Buff that increases Str. That way the damage of Basics is increased, along with non-ranged specials.

[Alejo Gabriel Marello]

Hi Kim,

just reading through Round 2 stuff... on page 18 it indicates that Adding Elements to Basic Moves is a good example of a technique. That means that you can use it with the Temporary Technique Element, that way the special move grants you the option to add a specific Element to all your basics by spending extra Control when using it. Always does Damage is not the in the suggested Elements list, but it doesn't means that you can't use it for a character with the Director permission.
