“Freeform” is banned

From now on we will be removing the word “freeform” from the set of words we use to explain Determinance.  It seems that people think that means it’s a free-roaming sandbox rpg, as opposed to what we meant, which was that the swordfighting itself was freeform.

This was my favorite marketing slogan:

Unfortunately we had to drop that because, aparently, real Samurai don’t fly around distant planets talking smack either.

Maybe “Real flying space-samurai use mice to have complete control over their swords while duelling in a Soul Calibur-esqu fighting game” would be better.

Share this gibberish!

   yeah.. it was cool. Well. How about: “Real fighters don’t select one of their attacks and execute it?” Narh, that sucks, since(especially in japanese martial arts), you have these techhniques, and.. you kinda use them.

   yeah. But it isn’t the whole point.. yet. >:D
   But really. That kind of game mode would be BEST! Liek, you had only the moving buttons and shit, lock-on etc., but not freeform swordfighting at all. Only, and only premade moves. But you could have thousands of them, as long as you have enough buttons in your keyboard. That would make this the best fighting game 8D liek, arcade fighting game. And also, those dashes.
