#YES.

I have the most fervent love for Nightmare and The Evil Sword that borders on fanaticism.

A Dreadknight hellbent on the subjugation of everything good and an endless thirst for mortal souls driving him.

What's not to love?

Even Soul Edge's looking at her completely baffled how it ended up with such a whiny master D_D

Groans

Have they done anything else with the series after that?

A Superb Villain5 votes

No.

I am conflicted; on the one hand, I need more Nightmare in my life, on the other, nothing new means no further disappointment.

Two things I'd like to see return to Soul Calibur. A new version of Chronicles of the Sword (Soul Calibur 3 was my favorite for its vast customization options (because I don't want to just make copies of the characters, I loved the extend staff) and the single player story line beyond the regular fighting mode. I'm disapointed that I never finished it) and make Kamikirimusi an actual character.

Mock me if you must, but god damn it she was my favorite character! I loved the design and I am a fan of the Kanabo.

Edit: I also enjoyed Lizard Man, but I couldn't play his two weapon version at all.

I honestly miss SC2's weapon master mode. Be it those weird fights, dungeon crawling or simple knockout phases.

Collecting all the different weapons and outfits was truly a blast especially with all the lore tidbits.

Man I absolutely loved that mode. Nothing like playing Nightmare and beating people with an oar

Say what you will, I miss SC3 Chronicles of the Sword mode. though I do miss playing as Spawn in SC2 :L

I wish... Saddly after that unholy mix of a crappy solo campaign, horrible new "protagonist", and some rather awkward, uncomfortable moments between said "protagonist" and his sister, I think the only thing they can do now is pull what mortal kombat did and go back at the beginning... there is this on the wiki, but I have no idea if it's 100% or not.

And again no Kamikirimusi. Le sigh.

Meh, I wouldn't read too much into it. I don't think there has been an official announcement and making the wielders of soul edge and soulcalibur named Cain and Abel seems a little... redundant, for lack of a better term .__.

...can we just go back to nightmare?

That gauntlet looks familiar...

Welp, now we know that Veigar's look isn't original anymore.

Ckecks off box on list titled "Things to do to ruin Veigar's image"

Hah!

Pyrrah Ω - 2012

Veigar - 2009

Granted, Nightmare was conceptualized well before that, but it's still apples to oranges; mutated arm compared to an over-sized gauntlet.

My favorite Nightmare move is straight up punching people with the arm. It's savage, brutal, and a good reminder that he's the weapon, not the sword (if we go by the lore in which Soul Edge possessed the empty armor after Siegfried stabbed the sword).

A Superb Villain1 votes

His mutated arm produces some of the most gloriously brutal moves in the series, whether it be lifting someone off their feet and slamming them to the ground or outright choking them to death.

Of course nothing beats Soul Calibur III where he catches Siegfried's blade with his bare hand. The look of "oh shit" was priceless.

More appropriate for League, but it lacks a certain grandiosity.

And I have an obvious bias for all things evil, of which Helmet Bro is not.

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhauser gate. All those moments will be lost in time... like tears in rain... Time to die.
