Hey there everyone!

Okay, I've got a question: Why do you all think Hsu Hao is one of the most unpopular characters in the franchise?

I've got Deadly Alliance and I play it Easy cause the Xbox controls are unbelievable--they routed all movement to the d-pad, come on--and I'm a giant pleb too, and the only person that I can use to beat Moloch is Hsu Hao. In fact, he's the first character I finished Arcade mode with. He's got some neat combos, his weapons, though they're recycled from Kano, are still pretty good for stringing together hits, and his fighting styles are easy to grasp on to.

That leads me to ask, why do you think Hsu Hao is so universally hated? Is it his design? Is it just because he's so mundane and uninspired? Personally, I think he's one of the best fighters on DA's roster, but as a character I think he's really bad. He just doesn't have the fantastic essence to him that other characters like Drahmin, and that leads me to my second point.

Why do you think Ed Boon dislikes Drahmin so much? I think that Drahmin has a really awesome design and his only real flaw is his fighting styles, but with some tweaking I bet they could be a lot easier to use. Besides, I mean, who doesn't want to play as a demonic warlord with a metal club on his fist? Seriously, that's just so kickass to think about.

Well, what do you all think?
