Here’s yet another new series of posts even though nobody bothers reading the fighting game related articles on this blog. Why do I bother doing it? I dunno really. I mean it’s either that or watch Smoky Thrill a couple more times and while that’s certainly a Sunday night I wouldn’t mind spending I think I should buckle up and just go with it. So here we go, the Melty Flood series. I asked braindead to help think of a name so blame him if you don’t like it. So anyway, here’s what I’m gonna do. MBAACC ver.107 is hitting the PC at the very end of this year. I’m gonna take every character that’s going to be in the game (31 confirmed for now) and write up a little introduction to each and every one of them including all 3 separate Moon Styles. If you’re completely new to MBAA and don’t know what the Moon Styles are, they were a systematic change in which each character was given 3 different playable versions which the player gets to select before the match. That’s essentially 93 different characters I’m covering so you’re probably asking why am I doing what seems to be so daunting. Well it’s very simple. The Melty Blood series is of course my favorite fighting game series and it holds a very special place in my heart, so I feel the least I can do is introduce more people to the series and help them get started so what better to do that with than Melty Flood? Great, got it? Let’s dance.
