I voted "A". For the children!
[September 27, 2013]
When I first saw design "A" of Call on the Mighty No. 9 Kickstarter, I was inspired to draw a quick sketch of her. I have no idea what her two giant pigtails does, but to me, it looks like a jetpack. If it's some sort of a weapon, I can't imagine a pose she would do to attack her enemies: turn around and shoot? Anyway, I haven't vote yet, because I'm still deciding. I want to vote for "A", but something tells me I shouldn't.
My opinions on all the Call designs:
A) I prefer plain jane characters over fashion characters. But that nerdy face she has seems like something that's not good for combat. But sometime the character's appearance can fool you, so she could be deadly. Who knows?
B) Looks pretty cool with those LED screen under her hairs. She look like a very strong supportive character to Beck. If only she wear a pant or skirt, then she's perfect. And would've gotten my vote right now.
C) Just like a female version of Beck who can transform into things, but that unicorn pet of hers kills me.
D) Did Keiji Inafune designed that? I can't imagine seeing it in-game side-kicking with Beck. Dear, GOD!
E) I'm not into girly or fashion things, but I do love looking at them as in an art form. This design looks pretty cute with her pony tail on one side and a hat on the other. She seems to be a flight attendant, and having a plane in the game sounds like a right thing to have.
F) Looks way too much like Roll. I was going to vote for her since her design grew on me since Comcept released it earlier this month. But after I saw that one sketch of her taking her jacket off, I felt disturbed.
G) It's nice to have a robot as a maid with that innocent face, but she doesn't seem like something that we would like to see in combat - Cinnamon from Mega Man X: Command Mission embarrassed me in battle when she runs up to an enemy then run back to her spot, so, yeah. But, like I said, sometime the character's appearance can fool you.
H) I don't know what kinda job for that outfit she's wearing. So...I don't know. I have no thoughts about it. ._.
I) Same thing as the G design.
I was going to do a quick sketch on the other designs, too. But drawing/painting takes so much of my free time, and I don't do this as my main hobby anymore. Only when I'm inspired or motivated.
