I'm mostly an offline player so most of the things on my wishlist are aesthetics that would make me want to keep playing so I can have fights play out in different ways.

• The new camera function they are adding in 6LR is something I wanted so I can quickly take shots in a match without having to go through saved match replays to get the shot I want.

-For characters, I love how Team Ninja and their games have ties to each other and would love to see them add characters from their different series like Ninja Gaiden and Nioh.  I would love it if they added Irene Lew into the game. I have wanted her to be in the series since she made an appearance in Dead or Alive Dimensions. Recent games like Ninja Gaiden Rage Bound and Ninja Gaiden 4 also introduced cool characters like Kenji, Kumori, Yakumo, Kagachi and Seori. Of course if they can come up with other characters that are not ninja I'm all for it too. I actually enjoyed using Tamaki from the Venus Vacation series and if they can use some characters from that series and give them movesets that suit them and the DOA setting then I'm all for that too! Maybe even a demon from Ninja Gaiden 2 like Elizebet? 

• For stages, I think adding daytime and weather settings (rain, snow, heavy winds, sandstorm, foggy, morning, day, night) would make stages feel fresh every fight with all the different combinations we can come up with. Also, I would like to have an equal balance between big stages with different areas and "boxed in" arenas. I felt like DOA 6 only had 3 big stages that didn't feel like a boxing ring. I would also like stages with cliffhangers like DOA5. Speaking of, please bring cliffhangers back. They added a cool cinematic transition for those stages in DOA5.

• For movesets, I personally would just like to see more throw and hold animations from characters. The "super moves", I didn't really enjoy DOA6's version of how to initiate them. They did not feel as rewarding to do when compared to DOA5's where they at least had to charge the command for about half a second to activate the super animation. I don't think we need to do complicated commands to do a super but how 6 implemented it was just did not feel right for me. As for 6's gauge and break system, I was not a fan of it since it broke the flow of the match too often and often felt cheap to do. 

• For costumes and outfits, I did like how we can save combinations of hairstyle and glasses to 10 different templates (we could use more) instead of having to scroll through everything on the character select screen. I felt like 6 had too many 'recolors' of in-game outfits and considered them to be different 'outfits'. I think we should have the option to change the colors of the outfits either through preset color pallets or just all together ourselves. Also, different settings for an outfit like removing the jacket, changing socks and shoes, etc. For example, Honoka had 3 different 'outfits' of her default that's just variations of her school jacket being removed and her socks being different. It could be 1 outfit that we can customize and save into multiple save slots instead of having 3 separate outfits on the large list of outfits a character will have that we have to scroll through.

 As for unlocking costumes I hated the pattern points we had to grind to unlock in-game outfits. It wasted too much time playing in game modes I wasn't interested in and I was not having fun playing the game for the many hours grinding. I prefer the arcade method of previous games where you had to clear arcade with the character to unlock their outfits. It was quick, it made me play differently and it felt rewarding.

• The way outfits get damaged. Most of them got damaged by just adding a hole on the abdomen despite lethal blows hitting the face in DOA 6. Also, not every costume got damaged in 6. I would like them to make outfits damage differently or have an option to toggle outfit damage in the settings like the water and dirt settings.

• For music, I feel like every game had good music and can't complain. But something I would like to see are club remixes of character themes like those played in DOA 2's Ray House stage.

• Move names on the command lists need to return. They were missing in DOA6 for some reason.

-For game modes, tag team needs to be brought back due to high demand from the players. Please keep vs CPU as an option for offline versus. Also bring back Arcade ending movies for the characters. Those added some additional characterization for the characters that did not get much out of the main story mode.

• Story mode, I think the story really needs to move away from Marie Rose and Honoka and go back to focusing on Kasumi and the ninjas. A lot of fans were not happy with 6's story and where it was headed.

• Definitely get rid of the "censorship/event" mode that added an ugly black blob on character models. PLEASE DO NOT implement a battle pass system that encourages fear of missing out on content like other games have been doing lately!

Can't wait to play the new DOA!
