![]() There are parts of his kit that feel sort of kitchen sink (why does a guy that can hit you from any range also need devastating 50/50 mixups?) but I respect what they're going for. Switching between three weapon types with unique attributes is interesting, if a little derivative considering what we've seen before, and he certainly feels like a final boss. ![]() In terms of playstyle, I like it well enough. Soul Calibur has always been fairly silly and cheesy at its core, and I'm happy they're really embracing it with Azwel. He's a total dick, but he's so effortlessly charismatic and over-the-top that I can't help but enjoy the guy's presence, and I think that's great. He makes Dampierre seem stoic and reasonable. It's like they took all the old fantasy/sci-fi pulp clichés, threw them in a blender, and made him the most theatrical-ass motherfucker in a series full of flamboyant eccentrics. He'd like the unholy deity of every r/askreddit armchair philosopher who thinks having a fedora and a STEM degree makes you some kind of misunderstood genius, except he's got magic bullshit gloves that let him juggle a billion different weapons and a fanatic urge for Ming the Merciless cosplay.
