![]() ![]() Have I got that right? Also, anyone know where the gem that is SoulCalibur Legends fits into the above timeline wise? SC2 - Siegfried transforms back into Nightmare again at the start of this game/end of SC1/off-screen, but regains his freedom permanently at the end of this game, meaning he is a separate playable character from SC3 onwards? SC1 - Siegfried regains his freedom temporarily at the end of this game (both Siegfried and Nightmare are playable characters despite not yet being separate entities - rather, they represent different stages of the story within this game?) ![]() SoulBlade - Siegfried transforms into Nightmare at the end of this game The opposite of SoulCalibur II was true of SoulBlade, where Nightmare was just an alternate costume for Siegfried (albeit in a different slot, technically).Ĭlick to expand.So the Nightmare you play as in SC1 is the version of him directly following SoulBlade (in one of Siegfried's endings in that game) and the Siegfried you play as in SC1 is when he temporarily regains his freedom (which would explain why Siegfried is an unlockable character in SC1 rather than a starting character - if his appearance takes place after Nightmare's story)? Wouldn't that mean there are three occasions of transformation: It wasn't until SoulCalibur III (appropriately enough, where Nightmare was no longer Siegfried) until their movesets were vastly differentiated. They were practically identical in SoulCalibur originally, with only a small handful of different moves. They came up with the storyline of his being Siegfried again between SoulCalibur II and SoulCalibur III. Compare SoulCalibur, where he starts the game as Nightmare and is freed (temporarily) by the end, as you see in the events of his Soul Chronicle in SoulCalibur VI. The canon events that happened that led to this (Raphael piercing Soul Edge's eye, then Siegfried finishing it off, forming the Soul Embrace with Soul Calibur) were not shown in SoulCalibur II, so in and of itself, from start to finish, Siegfried was Nightmare in SoulCalibur II. I guess the reason why he's not playable in SoulCalibur II is because he started the game as Nightmare and didn't really get freed until SoulCalibur III. Only twice, at the end of SoulBlade and at the beginning of SoulCalibur II. ![]()
