Various data indicated that a massive power lay at the core of the disturbance. A being from a different dimension was attempting to open a portal into their universe. However, because Darth Vader had been observing the phenomenon from the start, he already knew the cause of the distortion. It soon became a constant distortion, and others began to realize that something strange was happening in the universe as well. As time passed, the frequency of the disturbance, as well as the strength of its effect, increased. The ripple came from a disturbance that sporadically appeared in one specific region of space. It was a very small sensation, but he did not dismiss it, and began an investigation in secret. See Vader's entry as Anakin Skywalker on Wookiepedia Soulcalibur IVĪ long time ago in a galaxy far, far away.ĭuring a battle between the Galactic Empire and the Rebel Alliance, Darth Vader, Dark Lord and right-hand of Darth Sidious, sensed a faint ripple of power. The former Jedi is completed by an emboding dark cape held together by a chain. From head to toe, he is covered in heavy black armor and kevlar fabric and a flowing drape, the helmet which features a skull theme and covers his entire face while also acting as his breathing apparatus after the lava flow of Mustafar nearly killed him from third degree burns in his battle with his former Jedi master, Obi-Wan Kenobi. ![]() He appears as a very tall man in his mid years. If so, here's a cookie for you.Vader's appearance is of legendary and fearful stature. But hey, I'm one voice among thousands, so maybe this helped you avoid a bad game (my opinion) or maybe you just like digitized scantly-clad women, few in-game options, and ripping your hair out in frustration. And in this critics opinion anything in a game that demands "cheating" shouldn't be part of the game. Reason 3: The adventure mode (which was fun for story, tutorial, and unlocking items) was removed and replaced with an excessively frustrating and repetitive Tower mode with ridiculous requirements for successful completion that not only frustrates even the most stalwart defenders/veterans of the series but also virtually demands access to a FAQ. Black screen, message that some stuff happened (never very exciting or meaningful) and then wham, end credits. A good example: Playing the apprentice, you get to the finale, and it looks like you're about to fight Darth Vader (I mean, he is a playable character so they could easily have made it the last fight). I believe we've all screamed at that screen if we've played the game. It keeps dragging you along with the small hope of SOMETHING meaningful being tied to your character (I mean, I did just fight a lot of people for SOMETHING) but yet, when that last screen comes, you get a lame "And they did some sort of cool stuff that you don't know about" message in white text on a black screen. Reason 2: While most fighting games lack an appealing storyline, this one goes one step further. Bottom line, there's no true character creation here. And so, OK, maybe I can't make original moves but how about a unique-looking character limited only by my creativity? Sorry, you can't, because the items you choose play a part in deciding your abilities, strengths, and weaknesses then you have to choose what the developers had in mind or risk a glaring hole in your defenses and/or abilities. Want to make an original move set? Sorry, you can't, you have to copy-paste from another character (I can't even make a male Tira -or even use her move set- without it waving it's hips about and behaving quite femininely). Reason 1: Character Creation - First name, it's a misnomer. But here's the low-down on why this game, for me and my friends, gets a 4/10. If you're looking for a button masher with a nice hair-do, then I highly encourage getting this one from a bargain bin. If it wasn't rushed, it sure as hell feels like it. I haven't taken the time to research if this was an actually rushed project, but the game reeks of it. ![]() ![]() One word seems to come up more often than any other when I ask anyone I know (most incredibly avid video gamers) what they thought of SCIV.
