Because unless they make every move different, it would be a waste. I don't want another Toon Link, or even Lucina, who just attack differently in the hit box sense and have no new moves. They could've incorporated Windwaker and Phantom Hourglass more into Toon Link, but they didn't. And they could've had some fun with Lucina's moveset, but they didn't. I don't like clones. Never have. Not when different, not to mention fan loved, characters could have taken their place. Like who you ask? Well...Mewtwo, Isaac, Wolf Link and Midna, Laguz (pick one), Shulk, and more could've been in the game but most likely won't be. Now hey, if he's in and he's different, then great, but something tells me he won't be. |
Every time someone talks about clones, I have to remind them, they aren't "replacing" anybody (not singling you out, just think this is a point that needs to be added to the discussion). They take next to no time to add to the game, as the main assets and animations are already there, and you don't really have to worry about balancing. All you need to do is basically recolor the model in Dark Pit's case (which they would do anyways), record some new voice overs and slightly tweak some of Pit's moves (or give him some custom moves as his main).
While I do think that he should just be a recolor and Toon Link could be a better character, I usually wont complain about them, because they don't take anything away from the game, just add something I don't really care about. If they weren't there we would just have one less character slot on the roster, because adding another character, or making a non clone character is so much more work.
