ok so fucking check this shit out

a kid who was in the Tower of Barbs? Say waaaaat, there was no kid in the-

YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

baby grew up into a badass old man!

and if she ain't the Death insurance gal then she'd have to be-

its kinda hard to tell cos they both have very samey faces and people are supposed to be aged up with weird ways in this game? Like why is the baby fucking an old ass man but the Jackals look like they might be around the same age as him????

(Jackal Y doesn't look wrinkled here???? His hair might not even be grey, its hard to tell)

like everyone should be super fucking old compared to the former baby... but also this is supposed to take place before Deathverse, where Jackals X and Z look the same age as they did in the original game? (The devs seemed to have implied that DV was still canon in a recent video?)

but wait.... neither of them have the same eye color as the lady in black, but who else could...

wait

OH

I can't believe it, it fucking tracks

it works, black tattoos all over her damn body. she seems to have kicked the mushroom habit and got her sanity back

Now her? I really really want to say she gotta be that elevator lady right?

everything on her face adds up, she just let her eyebrows grow in and got a bit of a tan

so this is really interesting, this guy? Originally he was Admiral Honda, the weapon maker that popped out of your wall in deathverse

he looked a lot like the old man baby's dad:

(see the mutton chops beard?)

but for Inferno they've merged him with this motherfucker:

so now we get a new horrible creepy doll guy

then theres still that water buffalo looking guy tho? no official art of him yet

...................oh no.......................... theres no way right? but that fashion choice....

if it is Meijin then i know exactly why they'd fucking give him a new face: avoid drama with Suda51

he's pretty much the same guy as Master Gida from the menus in No More Heros 3

(even the DeathDrive game console comes from those games originally)

so yeah i'd get why'd they'd do this since Suda pretty much disowned LiD and wants nothing to do with it anymore

so let me see, then if they're bringing everyone back then...

Yeah we're still missing Death insurance lady, Naomi Detox and Jackal X? I don't think he's gonna come back again as Bryan Zemeckis, but it would be funny if he was still kinda chubby and wore a lot of bling.

I don't think these two are coming back:

this character is actually Belongs to the creator of “ZeroTale” is by @carlosloquendo and I hope you like it so actually he’s gonna be right part of my own series Deathverse but it’s difficult to draw him so I did as my take version of Error505

Art by me (my take)

As far as people can tell, GungHo maintains the rights to at least some, if not all the characters. Some argue that Meijin appears in TSA and NMH3, but it can be argued that they aren't the same characters, as they don't even have the same names.

He goes by "Meijin" in Let It Die, but Master Gida in TSA (and I think NMH3). While he has a very similar appearance in TSA, I don't think it would really hold up in court. But that's just my opinion.

Also, I assume at this point many Suda alumni are aware of the ways Suda has dodged copyright issues when he wanted his characters to make some sort of appearance in games, if even in spirit.

Anyway, no I do not believe he retains any rights to Let It Die nor it's characters, and has chosen to completely sever ties with that game (it's not even included in GhM's portfolio on their website).

The Death Drive is also worth bringing up since it connects NMH with LID more than anything else, but it's worth considering these games were made and released when GhM still had ties with GungHo. At least, in a legal sense. I doubt this console will have any relevance in Suda's future games as he continues to leave it all behind.

I'm not even sure if the Death Drive is brought up in Deathverse, but I don't really care for that game.

Just between us (and anyone else that happens to be reading this), my low-IQ brain likes to think Deathverse looking so shiny and clean is an analogue for the dirty, raucous punk rock vibe Suda provided with his games. Without his influence to stir the pot, that filthy little soul I loved is completely gone and we're left with a squeaky-clean, pitiful MP-only game that has already diminished to a microscopic player base.
