Rumor: focus group discusses possible Heavenly Sword 2 info

It seems a focus group got together, thanks to Chatter Inc., and talked about Heavenly Sword 2. At first, the questions were standard survey stuff -- nothing too meaty, just reactions to the first game. Later, though, tidbits were unveiled about possibilities with the sequel. What were they? We'll list them below, but if you hate spoilers, we'd recommend you turn your monitor off and bathe in clorox until all the pigment is gone from your skin.

  1. Heavenly Sword 2 will take place 10 years after the events in Heavenly Sword.

  2. The main character will be a male with martial arts background.

  3. The main character will be Kai, but she will be a more mature woman.

  4. The game will require you to master different martial arts styles before retrieving the heavenly sword.

  5. The game will, instead of button mashing, have controls that utilize an analog stick to go through weapons.

  6. The game will have downloadable weapons, characters, and enemies to customize your experience.

  7. The game will be more interactive with the environment.

  8. The game will have you on a storyline with replayable missions, as opposed to an open world.

It seems like it's all speculation, but we can kind of see how the game will turn out if they follow some of these ideas. Instead of being compared to God of War, it seems the game might turn more into a Devil May Cry presentation style. Just so Kai isn't so ... weird. Take this rumor with a basket of salt.
