    No good at all, but I don't think that's what everyone meant. I think everyone (well at least I did) meant that they'd rather have a sequel featuring Nanaki as the main character instead of Vincent. Obviously if they made a sequel revolving around Nanaki, it wouldn't be a shooter.

    yeah, i think i may have misinterpreted myself at the start :-\ . sure he would never be a good shooter , but he's well deserving of his own game [my opinion] .

    As for Vincent being the main character in DC, I think it might work out pretty well. Nanaki would be a good main character for a game, but for a spin off I think Vincent was probably the best choice. Vincent had a lot of issues he tried to come to amends with and only partially succeeded, he is haunted by the many things he had no control over, these things plus the fact he was an ex-Turk gives him potential for a more in depth story.

    They never even got that into him in FF7 so i think they should have made DoC on another character like Barret.He was one of the stories characters and wasnt optional.Vincent is so wierd and ugly looking anyway.

    I bet a lot of fans would disagree with you on that one. Optional or not, Vincent had a lot of backstory to him, and helped flesh out the plot of FFVII. Barret, and own little personal story had closure, Vincent's didn't. Not to mention, many people are rabid fans of him. I think his design is quite classic to be honest.

    I dont know why he is so popular...and he only had one event that waterfall thing...so how is that a lot of backstory. It just doesnt make sense to me.

    I'm assuming they'll expand on that.

    Um, he has more events then that. Flashbacks to his past an what not. His backstory is there, but it is still rather mysterious, leaving it opened to be expanded on. Vincent never got closure to his end of the story, unlike most of the cast.

    yes his background is very in depht, if you use him you start noticing he begins to open up more to the group. he also begins to come to peace with himself throughout the story you just have to pay attention. actualy if you fight hojo with him he says (SPOILER)I was wrong Hojo... the one who should have slept... was you" if you think about whot Vincint thinks about himself that is a very powerful line. He was very alone and very tortured and never forgave himself even after Lutricia forgave him.

    While I can obviously see how he got some closure when defeating Hojo- that's the main reason he travelled with you- but I think there's a lot more nitty gritty in Vincent's past. A lot of it is intertwined with people from Shinra as well, who's pasts are mostly a mystery. (Reeve, for an example, is in DoC.) Maybe it's me, but I never thought Vincent was developed as fully as he should of been. He's so damn quiet most of the time, that he seems to fade into the background when put up against any of the other chracters.

    Exactly since he was so quiet in the story he didnt get much attention so why a whole game on him...

    because like Camanche and I have been saying, he was a very well developed charecter but never had any real closer and had a lot of mysteries in his backstory
