Lol Maximillian uploaded a Soulcalibur video within like two hours of mine... I wonder if that will help or hurt my SEO

Sometimes the giant unicorn horns make Nightmare look like a mecha :P

Lol yeah. Have you seen his Soulcalibur V concept art? There’s a very mecha-looking design where Souledge turns into wings on his armor.

obligatory "nm should have been a rapier wielder in sc5" comment but thats a whole other topic. very nice analysis! i dont know where i read it so this might not actually be canonical it could be fanon but i read once that the red hair in his sc2 design is just siegfrieds hair drenched in blood. if that is true, thats metal as hell lol. i kinda wish that we got another nightmare instead of pyrrha omega. it would have been SO cool to see what nightmare would have looked like on a female host

Great video, though I certainly have a few nitpicks. SCI Nightmare 1P is definitely not without his iconic Blue, though I don't blame you for not taking it into account in the moment since his CG render is basically devoid of it. It's definitely there in his in-game model though (the gold highlights would help a lot in later designs if you ask me) (i got nothing major for SCII nightmare, but his spine extending to form a tail bugs me and i hate it) for SCIII NIghtmare 1P... I never really bought the idea that it's an empty suit of armor. Zasalamel essentially helped create an artificial body for Nightmare using the several lingering around the Ostrheinsburg Chapel, while Nightmares memories did the rest of the work (hence why siegfried's scar is still there) I can see it being the case for his SCIV 1P, except it still has Siegfried's head (still evident by the scar), and even his neck (though the darker colors used for it help mask it at the very least. it's one of those cases where it's easy to miss, but hard to un-notice once you eventually see it.)

I really like Raphael's nightmare appearence, his vampire like helm is great and his new arrogant, sarcastic personality (he's Raphael after all) is a nice change to the nihilistic one from Siegfried.

@@Silvershire It has been confirmed by Namco-Bandai's Soul Calibur guide that Graf Dumas was in fact Raphael whose memories had been deleted and re-written because Soul Edge favored the Zweihander fighting style. He did retain some personality traits of his though such as his charm, charisma, manipulation skills and his knowledge in alchemy and sorcery.

I might be biased because Soul Calibur 4 was my first game of the series, but SCIV Nightmare is my absolute favourite design

Great video! Big fan of the Soulcalibur games so this was quite a nice video for me. Personally, I would like to see your ranking on all of Kazuya Mishima's costumes. You can see just how much I love Kazuya just by looking at my username and profile picture haha but anyway, I really love all of Kazuya's costumes, especially his purple suits as well as his overall character design, which is one of the main reasons I prefer Kazuya over Jin. Huge sucker for characters in general who dress in purple or have a purple color scheme and wear nice clothing.
@Silvershire2 жыл бұрын
Thank you so much! Kazuya will be fun to discuss because of how much variety there is in his costumes: formal wear, casual wear, karate wear, weird robot armor suits... I can discuss his Devil transformations, too. Plus, I’ll be touching on Tekken in the Yoshimitsu episode, so that would make for a good transition. I’ll add him to the docket and let you know once that video’s out!

I recently noticed that Nightmare and Siegfried's armours in SCVI have a dragon motif (and the elbows thingies maybe resemble a dragon's wing?), but I would prefer the unicorn motif, that they already have in their official images background. It's just me bitchin about nothing, but idc lol

Anyone else absolutely adore his SCIII look? Like it’s absolutely his strongest doesn’t imo, it’s got everything that works with the other designs and is yet subdued enough to not be too much Only issue I have with it is Phantom Soul Edge looking kinda mid, give it the OG Soul Edge and it’d be perfect

It does strike a good balance between his more grounded SCI/SCII looks and his monstrous SCIV look

Soul Calibur 2 P1 costume is an instant 10/10 for being iconic, no horn, and that red plume is majestic! I think there are other great outfits, but I don’t care for the horn, and no plume is just wrong.

Nightmare Designs Soul Blade: A bit blocky due to the PS1 graphics, but he’s close to looking like a demonic knight Soul Calibur: Looks great due to the Dreamcast Graphics. 2nd costume: Ok but the helmet could use some work Soul Calibur 2: The most iconic of all the Nightmare Designs. 2nd Costumes: great design to see Siegfried when he was the Azure Knight, although his hair could have been red. Soul Calibur 3: More of an update of his Soul Calibur 1 design. 2nd Costume: Ok but the helmet could use some work. Soul Calibur 4: More demonic looking as he’s not even human anymore. 2nd Costume: He kinda looks like Megatron from the 2007 Tranformers movie. Soul Calibur 5: A PS3/X Box 360 update of his Soul Calibur 2 costume. 2nd Costume: he looks like he belongs in either a Mortal Kombat game, a Darksiders game, Diablo Game or a Dragon Age Game Soul Calibur 6: Looks great given the PS4 graphics. Plus the cape is a nice touch.

Soul Calibur 5's Nightmare is my least favourite in terms of story and he should've stayed in his own body after splitting from Siegfried but man his design is cool. I wish he looked more like a historical knight instead of a mecha though.
