Why Wyald?

[Aya]

(Before anyone says anything I own the game but on console) so I have been wondering why Wyald is a playable character, it just is a bit dissapointing and I was wondering if there was any reason for his inclusion in the roster. We have such choices from the actual main cast, Farnese and Isidro may not be very capable fighters but they are main cast and in the game with models as support fighters. The most obvious replacement would be Skull Knight, who wouldnt wanna play him even his horse is in game for a full cosplay of him. But instead we get a minor antagonist who has no role in either the 97 anime or the golden age movies for being so insignificant and imo hes not even that great in the manga. He also imo has possibly one of the dumbest looking apostle forms, Lord of theives or the count wouldve been a better playable option (for their apostle forms, wyald is obviously a better character than lord of theives and the count. Also he doesnt look boring in human form like these 2. Thinking about this more i realize i completely forgot grunbeld is in this game that wouldve been an amazingly awesome apostle to play as and his human form model is already in game with a perfectly useable set of attacks as a player character). I know wyald is slow and tanky but we already have zodd for that which means he makes hardly any sense for gameplay either imo. Also im not saying this before playing him, i actually am at the last few missions in the story mode I just got the berserker armor. I also have reached floor 61 in endless eclipse with all 8 characters aiming to get to 100 after i complete story mode and unlock it. (Update beat the game and ran wyald to floor 100 next up the other 7 characters gotta get dat 100% completion femto skin)

The Skull night would be difficult cause we dont know what he can do, and Wyald does have a transform, which is ok

Skull knight has shown a decent amount of what he can do actually in game as in cutscenes. His normal attacks are obvious sword swings at a slower speed but still decently fast based on the small sword size. He could even be another transform character plunging the sword down his throat and getting access to his behelit sword, which when cutting could have the visual flair of splitting dimensional holes. Speaking of which his death blow could be cutting a dimensional hole that sucks in all enemies around it and then closes on them brutally slicing them in half.

Wyald may not be great for gameplay (I haven't unlocked him yet but I am looking forward to it), but he was certainly an interesting character in the manga. I wasn't fond of his Apostle form at all but his creepy image and reputation stuck with me. I'm actually Excited (hah!) to play as him, but maybe I'm messed up.

Because Wyald being absent from ANOTHER adaption of Berserk would be downrigt criminal.

Yea, most plausable theory I heard was something like this. That how he gets shafted from so many adaptations that they decide to put him in this game.

Have to agree, there were a lot of better choices, especially from Band of the Hawk members. Still, I have to admit I'm enjoying the hell out of the game right now.

Too bad the games been out for a year in japan, and since this game was ported to us a year later no further dlc is planned most likely (update i was mistaken its only been 3 months i only looked at 2016 to 2017 instead of the specific dates maybe more dlc is possible since it hasnt been that long). Hopefully a sequel is made and we get skull knight then. We also badly need a sequel for one huge reason, the berserk game on dreamcast covered the hawk of millenium ark, the game on ps2 in japan only covered the hawk of millenium ark, the anime from 97 covered the golden age and a tiny bit of the black swordsman ark, the movies covered golden age again, the new anime covered the conviction ark and its second season is going to be for the hawk of millenium, and this game itself covers all 3 of those arks aswell and nothing further. The golden age ark and millenium ark are too over exposed (and convictions been done twice in a row now with this game and the anime) we need a game or anime taking place after these arks, it is really unfair that so much of this story is hidden in the manga. Even though the manga is amazing, who prefers reading to having voice acting, animated action, good performances, music and just all that good stuff a animated version of something has that if done right makes the original material better. I understand the manga has amazing art i agree the art is beautiful and amazing and just perfect, but i just cant ever prefer a manga to an anime unless the anime is trash of course. The new anime 2016 is garbage compared to its manga equivalent. A garbage anime is worse than the manga but a great anime thats done perfectly like the 97 berserk will always be better than the manga becausw it enhances it (even though they cut the story a bit, but i cant say thats a bad thing because they were able to make cuts without destroying any characters development or ruining the storys pace or flow.) imo.

I can finally play as Griffith/ Femto, what more could I wish for?
I remember being super disappointed that the Dragon's Dogma Berserk DLC wasn't included in the PC version...it is actually the main reason I gave up on buying it.

But sure, Isidro would have been a better choice if they were really deadset on not making Skullknight playable.

Oh ♥♥♥♥ guess i was just ignorant i looked at the basic release date 2016-2017 i thought this games been out a full year october to febuary 3 months huh well i ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up im willing to admit that mistake im a dumbass XD. I only assumed this because it usually does take a year to get something that comes out there first maybe more dlc is going to come i doubt it but it would be ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ amazing id pay 10 dollars for skull knight alone.
