I was going to preorder (somewhere) anyway, so this is just mroe incentive to do so.
Even though I think the character is pretty stupid, I might start learning him just to beat up my friends with the dumbest character in the game.

I've been a fan of the franchise, but I'm finding it very hard to give a shit about this or Ezio. Or Soulcalibur V itself.
YES!!! Dampierre was the best thing about Broken Destiny so to see him again makes me a happy camper.
I agree with Char.. course, I loved Soul Calibur, played professionally (and failed at it on the national level, state level had more success.. but there wasn't many good Indiana players, lol) Soul Calibur 2, Soul Calibur 3 and 4 are considered none-existent in my book. I just want them to fix my Ivy character... Ezio and Dampierre.. meh.
It doesn't matter, this is going to be one of my rare "Day One" games anyway. SC II is my favorite fighting game ever, and I had a lot of fun with SC IV, so this is a no-brainer for me.

Its not a preorder character, but if you could read, you'd know that. It's a DLC character that's free if you preorder.

Not enough to make me pre order but Soul Calibur V is something I will buy if the online infrastructure is good this time around.
It's cool to see Dampierre finally making it into the canon! Although since he's a preorder character, I guess this means he won't be in the opening movie. :<
I told myself DOA5 would be the only fighting game I buy next year, but SCV keeps looking more and more tempting.
@lastdual
I know how you feel. DOA and SC are my two favorite fighting game franchises. I just hope they're released far enough apart that I can justify buying both at launch.

I apologize, it's so hard to read at work and sometimes I miss the details. So, you are telling me that this character will be available for everyone as DLC on launch day?
"The folks at Namco did confirm that Dampierre will be available sometime after launch"
From what I've read, that would make it a preorder character first and then a DLC character later on seeing as how you can't DLC it in the beginning unless you preorder it. However, this is all semantics and overall, character DLC is stupid no matter how you look at it

No worries, man. I apologize if I came off as abrasive; some people are just so eager to hate on everything.
Naw, I don't think he's going to be available day 1. I think it's going to be something similar to the MvC3 Collector's Edition Jill and Shuma thing, where when it DOES become available, people that preordered will get him for free.

He'll have to be on the disk in order to play online with him. Otherwise there would be a day one patch to allow players who didn't preorder to play against those who did.
Or they could have a popup when the other player picks him:
"DeathRoar666 has picked Dampierre. Please pay 600 Microsoft points to download him now."

Dampierre is pretty fun, and his finishing special was pretty funny in Broken Destiny. I must also say that I really enjoyed Kratos in that game too. He fit in pretty well. Far better than Hilda does..
