kay. youre right. happy?

We had some discussion about this in a previous thread.

I'm guessing it's because it would be strange to have Chen in the background and as a playable character. Of course you can both play as the same character in fighting games, but it would be unusual that you have three Chens on-screen.

Plus it just makes more sense they'd use the dozens of Touhou characters that *aren't* playable as background characters, rather than the ones who are.

naa, Tasofro wants to create the game more shitty possible.

And let the chance go by to make the super cool effect of making dynamic backgrounds that change according to your character selection? (granted, only one char gets replaced/disappears).

Again, I'm not saying they'll all be playable. It just makes no sense that characters like Shou, who show up in the intro, would be limited to a background appearance. Specially when Miko will be joined by a close member of her group. Having only Byakuren+Ichirin in the buddhist is analog to having having a Miko+Yoshika combination on the taoist side. I'm noy saying it wouldn't be cool to play as yoshika, though.

It's true. I remember before MvC3 came out and Tron Bonne was in one of the backgrounds before she was announced, everyone was all doom n' gloom of course but she ended up in the game anyway.

I still doubt It's going to happen here though.

why is yukari so far away from chen and ran?

>>10909005
To maintain a sense of superiority over the rest of those present. I want to know why she's wearing a gloomy black ribbon.

>>10909005
Judging from what we've seen of other stages, they just like to spread characters all over them. God forbid they'd actually form groups that make sense.

Yukari sits on roofs.
It's what she does

It's completely new game mechanics-wise, of course there will be really few playable characters, probably even less than 10. So I won't be surprised that the characters put on the background won't be playable

but all the characters that already appeared in the background are unlikely too be playable anyway

It was not confirmed its just a guess. Some characters appear where they shouldn't and others don't appear where they should. It would be awesome is we were wrong.

There's some red in there

Random characters probably appeal in the background due to plot points, so I would have to assume the game is coded well enough to know which character is being played and which character isn't.
