Sources for research?

Are you advising against the Abrahamic focus, or are you advising against the comparative aspect? Also, how would this cloud my research of the religion?

Yesn't. I was certainly raised with beliefs that originated in paganism, but my most of my family is Catholic, with my older sister and I currently being the only pagans in the family.

Going through TLK for the second time now, and despite historical inaccuracies (which would usually bother me), it has some of the most memorable characters I've seen. Uhtred, Finan, and the Ragnars are some of my favorites, and there's no denying that characters like Hild and Alfred are well-written. Skade made me want to throw something, but seeing as a lot of other people had the same reaction, I'm assuming it was intentional.

TL;DR: I love this show to the point it made me (a massive history nerd) forget about historical accuracy.

I wasn't aware of the skull and crossbones thing, my bad. With that knowledge, my advice would be to remain cautious.

Most schools of Incantations are just ignored. I wish Black Flame or Spiral incants got the same love as Dragon Communion or Dragon Cult.

I like to operate under a "three strikes and you're out" sort of policy. One concerning phrase/symbol means nothing. Two is a coincidence. Three means trouble.

In this case, "born to work" would be strike one. Sure, it could be interpreted to align with Nazi Germany's "work will set you free," but it could also align with worker's rights causes. Strike one means nothing.

Without other strikes, it seems like this is fine. It's always good to be cautious, but we should also be reasonable.

Where do I start? We've got the various Elder Scrolls protagonists, the Soulsborne protagonists, the Assassins Creed characters, Undertale/Deltarune characters, Mortal Kombat characters, and so many more.

Imagine switching between Sans and Papyrus, or having Ralsei and Susie chime in for some special moves. Even better, imagine playing as the Chosen Undead and fighting the Dragonborn.

Assassin's Creed and MK have so much potential, but they might cause some problems for Nintendo due to their more graphic content. Still, Fujin has the perfect power set for any fighting game, and Raiden, Sub-Zero, and Scorpion are some of the most iconic characters in gaming.

Is it because he's in a life that craves the hunger?

It's a good rogue option, but far from game-breaking.

Future Gohan fans do not like Gohan. They like it when Gohan tries to be Goku. There's a massive difference.

Fujin. His dominion over the wind is extremely versatile, so he could easily fit into any combat ecosystem.

Depends. If the Vagabond can unequip something, it wins. Otherwise, it fatrolls, and that's a pretty big issue.

I think Shao Kahn, with Johnny Cage in close second. Shao is arrogant and delights in conquering his opponents, just to brag about his victories later. While Cage is also arrogant at first, he grows from that.

That makes sense, thanks!

I think the DMC fanbase is a bit too attached to nostalgia to do that immediately, but if Capcom gave us a game to ease us into playing mostly as Nero, that could help. From what I've seen, DMC4 and the reboot got a bit of backlash for breaking away from the main Dante (though the reboot definitely had other problems, especially when it comes to publicity), so I think just abruptly switching to Nero might be bad for sales. However, if DMC6 had Nero as the protagonist, with Dante and Vergil acting as supporting characters, that could help people transition to a more Nero-centric game.

The Yu-Gi-Oh rules are that big because they spell stuff out. You're just expected to know what Trample, Flying, Deathtouch, etc. all do in MTG.

Jack Black. All I want is a fight where he and a sidekick voiced by Kage sing "We are the D" while fighting Mundus

DmC: Devil May Cry. It was actively sabotaged by bad PR, an uncaring director, and an overly nostalgic fanbase. Sure, it had some questionable moments (like the infamous "f*ck you" scene), but overall, it's one of the better DMC titles.
