    That was pretty obviously him on the front of the ship in today's new video, but how great would it be to physically have him in there as a bounty or a special event... or on a ghost ship. Anything. Rare history! And he just fits since he's, ya know, a skeleton pirate.

    I think I saw a similar post on reddit a while back. Would be a nice cameo.

    Would be awesome if encountering him pulled you into a side scrolling sword fight battle.

    @k7-issues I'd kill him with an exploding barrel from a distance lol.

  • K7 Issues

    @bloodfrenzy187 lol, I wouldn't even get close enough to plant the barrel. Just cannon him from the ship!!

    I was honestly hoping that they would put Capt. Blackeye from Banjo-Kazooie in the game. alt text

  • K7 Issues

    @orbisinfinitus They could have, I bet there's a bunch of little things that we haven't seen yet. I want to see King K. Rool on Gangplank Galleon as an emergent boss randomly in the game. That'd be kewl beans! (Wishful thinking though lol)

    Been saying this for awhile now. I even said it right to Rare on twitter. I really hope they don't limit him as a simple mantle piece. With so many other games doing great crossovers like Monster Hunter they have a lot of room to work him into the game as an actual huge enemy in some way.

    @tedakin Oof too bad this isn't even in the game now? spinal laugh in the distance

    Anything Rare wants to add to the game from their old games, I'm ok with. But MORE is better. Lol

  • Renoxius

    there's also a Joanna Dark figurehead and a Banjo figurehead that is planned

    Adam Isgreen from the Killer Instinct/Microsoft team mentioned on the official KI forum that he had spoke to Craig Duncan if he was putting in Spinal into SoT’s. It didn’t sound too promising though. I thought it would have been a great fit and honestly thought we’d see at least one Spinal reference in the game at launch.
    Fingers crossed for the future but it’s not looking likely.
