I want to see a new formula too, but I really doubt Monster Hunter is the right way to go. I might be biased because I don't like MH at all, but I don't feel like it'd fit the series at all, it simply feels like the opposite of how an anime, over-the-top Senran Kagura shinobi would fight. Mind you, I love Deep Crimson, I consider it better than the Versus games and I vehemently disagree with anyone who calls it a step back, a waste of time and/or resources. It probably wasn't the best in the series, economically speaking, but I don't feel like it was a waste of anything, and the series could really shine by taking some inspiration from it. And I dunno, there are some girls I'd like to see from New Wave, but I find most of them somewhat forgettable and I feel like they wouldn't add anything to the series. If anything, they'd probably detract screentime from the other characters, until no one gets nearly enough time on screen. Dude, we need to have some virtual coffee/beer together.

I'm not sure how I feel about a Hunter-esque formula for this series either. It seems like an interesting concept if they expand on the Yoma, but might be problematic and awkward for the standard Shinobi duels that are more common in the series. I think a focus on multiplayer might hurt it a bit, but I personally love the idea of co-op being expanded upon. I've not looked into New Wave much, but i think it would be really interesting for them to take a multiplayer approach with the added New Wave girls. It's not like they NEED to be story factors, though it would help, and it could create some nice variety so everyone can play a style they like... or just play their Waifu, either/or, I guess.
I personally would like to see it take a multiplayer approach with a mixture of the Versus games and Deep Crimson. Say what you will about sales, or a "step back", but to me Deep Crimson is the best game in the series, even if it has some minor problems (most of which I'd blame on the lack of camera control). If they refine DC gameplay with some of Versus, and made it co-op battles with other Shinobi and the occasional Yoma boss, I think the game would be solid gold.

Cheers to both PurpleFortune and mongi291 , after re-watching some MH Gameplay, that doesn't fit the series at all. I guess I was just sorta thinking that since it's been a solid 2 Years since I'vehemently seen those games. Edit: Holy shit that autocorrect is terrible. I'm keeping it unchanged just cuz of the new word I invented "I'vehemently"

Idk. While I do prefer the current format, I wouldn't mind of 7even ended up being Monster Hunter like. This would be especially good when fighting Yoma. And if they want to add ninja esque things like hoping from buildings or something, it could work too.
As for New Wave Girls, tbh I'd want them tbh. Many of them are pretty interesting. Plus if you count the ones that'll likely be in anyway (like the New Hanzo, New Hebijo, Gessen Middle School, Zodiac Squad, Tengu Squad, Arc Angels, & probably Maisen Squad due to Shiki's international school plot), you might as well just add the rest. Plus as a DW/SW fan, roster size isn't a problem for me
Just hope they start revealing things about it asap. If this game is a bug project, they should start revealing things now. Even if it's just Yumi & Asuka gameplay.

Y'know what would be sick though? A system Like MGS Revengeance where you have stealth and the musou gameplay rolled into one with different missions.

Hey, if SK7 has more of a story focus, I'll take it regardless of gameplay style, honestly.
As I said, I am on the fence of a Hunter-esque style, but it's almost entirely because I think it might be awkward when fighting other girls. A Hunter format for Yoma would be great (As long as they don't make the combat as slow as MH, maybe something closer to GE, pace-wise). As much as I like Deep Crimson, the combat system feels like it creates problems in some bosses like Orochi or Mikami. Plus I just really like the Yoma concept and would like to see them expand upon it.
I should play New Wave so I can remember who most of those teams are. Even if I barely know who they are, I'd love to see them add New Wave girls. Modeling and programming might take a while, but on the bright side, Senran Kagura isn't some super technical fighting game, so they won't have to spend like an eternity programming move sets? If nothing else, perhaps add them into the game after its release, as (hopefully free) DLC or via game patches.
I'm perhaps too hopeful.

if they were more consistent with the series, there would already be more factions in place. Burst introduced the first two factions then Shinovi introduced and added two new factions then time and money was wasted on the cooking game (which could have been a sequel that added 2 more factions) then they took leaps backwards going back to 3DS and SK2 lacking even Shinovi's new teams. it introduced Naruku and Kagura but they weren't even playable. very short sighted game compared to Shinovi. they could have introduced at least two new teams. Estival added a faction, but the story could of involved at least one extra faction if it was a more serious and well designed scenario. then Peach Beach Splash is another not so serious game, that's not even action, didnt add any new full factions and the water gimmick misguided the scenario. they could have introduced 2 new factions if they were consistent with the mainline they would only have about 4 to 5 teams to catch up on now instead of 10+ imgtc.com/i/AqT2Wv6.jpg

You know, just because the first two games introduce two factions each, it doesn't mean that every following game should do the same. As a matter of fact, that's a horrible idea.

I'm on board with bring the New Wave factions into SK7 if it's built to be co-op, so there are more options, more fun to be had. If it's designed to be multiplayer then I would be fine with an awkward dump of new playable characters. Alternatively maybe sprinkle new factions in as DLC or updates as I said, to make things slightly better.
If they had tried to introduce new factions with every game, I feel like it would very quickly lead to a huge narrative mess. I feel like the games before this added new teams at a reasonable pace, and who was included in which game did well enough to prevent problems. I highly disagree that Deep Crimson was a step backwards in any form. If anything it was a step to the side, not backwards.

If the other factions are JUST DLC, I have no issue. BUT, making them part of the story clouds every other characters spotlight, Making each character more and more insignificant to make way for New Waves Girls.

Personally I think the best way to go about the New Wave crowd would to just... not involve most of them with the main story? As I said earlier, it's not like they need to be major story factors. Simple solution; Add them for varied playstyle, have them as cameos at most in the main story, and maybe give them short Arcade style story modes like fighting games (think the Shinobi Girl's Heart missions) so we get a bit of insight into their character without drawing attention away from the those in center stage.

I like the sound of that, Just need Kumi in that arcade mode and we're all set for me to say I love 7even.

Adding NW girls wouldn't really take much spotlight from the other girls. They could still make the original girls stand out while having the new girls get introduced. As a matter of fact, that would make all of them expand more together
And yeah tbh if they were to add them now, they don't really need to add any more after (unless it's guest) and could just continue to put all those girls as the focus for the series
