Soul Series/Headscratchers: Difference between revisions

** Bear in mind that whenever you face more than one Lizardman, all but the first will have the joke weapon. They're the comic relief.

* Before you fight the final boss of Soul Calibur 3, Zasalamel says "I didn't come all this way just to die here." Isn't that exactly what he came there to do?

* Taki in SCIV. OK, it turns out Soul Caibur was not as good as Siegfried had been led to believe, but what was the point of calling him evil and ''killing him'' over it? Hilde had a legitimate beef with Siegfried and showed more compassion than that. Are we ''supposed'' to find Taki sympathetic for her story mode?

** My take on this: Hilde's not aware of Soul Calibur's true nature and how dangerous it is to let it roam free, so she only sees Sieg's acts. Taki knows from first-hand just how much danger SC represents, and is determined to see it destroyed. Problem comes with Sieg, who sees SC as a tool of justice and wouldn't let it be destroyed. Sieg will not give in, and Taki can't trust Sieg will keep SC on check (too risk a gamble). Plus, the likely chance destroying SC equals Sieg's death (since his soul has bonded with it), Taki's got no other known choice (yet) to resolve this than fighting and (directly or indirectly) killing him, whether she wants it or not.
