I think Darrius is pretty cool even though he might be a ripoff of Jax kind of. His fatalities in Deception were good to.

Because he is portrayed with.... racism.

How could Darrius be considered a rip-off of Jax? Because they are both black?

And IS there something racist in his portrayal? I haven't noticed anything.

He doesn't bother me. I have no problems with him.

Yeah, he's supposed to be like Williams in Enter The Dragon, I believe.

I don't understand that... Maybe I'll read your thread.

Darrius is only a slight ripoff of Jax. Mainly because in the beginning of Deception people thought he was Jax. Also his backbreaker throw was Jax's move in the 2-D ones. Oh and I don't know how Darrius could be portrayed in racism at all.

Darrius has a boring concept, boring story, and boring costume. And his special moves are nothing unique.

If Darrius is a rip off of jax, then Kai is too, and any black kak character you make is a rip off then?

I like Darrius, I like his story too, thats why hes in my top ten favorites (his specials kick ass)

Play Deception's Konquest mode again, notice how the leader of the uprising, the one insiting anarchy...is th ONLY black guy in the entire realm!

Darrius is my second fav. player behind Stryker. I think his specials are awsome and he is easy to use. His story is pretty cool too.

I am not saying Darrius is a ripoff of Jax just because he's black. I never did say that in the first place.
