This guy is so freaking brilliant
Why they're not using his awesome Brawl design and making him look like a western emo Star Wars character is beyond me. FFS. Things don't need to be dark to look cool, any of those Pit designs are using the Brawl design but making him look needlessly emo/darker, or too much like an adult. The game is called KID Icarus for a reason, Pit is an adolescent!!
Creating Pit like this will not bode well for Japanese sales, neither does Factor 5. I know it never did so well in Japan anyway, but his Brawl look is amazingly popular now. By doing this they instantly take away any popularity potential.
Angst is the total polar opposite of good. He looks like f***ing Anakin Skywalker with wings!
I don't care if it's concept art, if they had any brains they'd use his popular Brawl look, no redesign needed, that was already done.
EDIT: Oh, and the story of Pit as a fallen angel is total bulls**t. I hope it's not real. It's the total opposite of the way Pit is usually imagined. Why does everything have to be all dark and angsty these days!?
[cos of those frickin emo kids - Silver] ...In any case I don't trust Factor 5 at all with this project, it they are indeed working on it. It's not their area, I have no idea why they'd even want to take it. I looked at the list of their games, and oh dear, they'd be the last company on earth I'd choose to revive a mythological fantasy series.
I don't get the need to complain and go on like they've ruined the franchise, the final product (if it exists) hasn't even been officially revealed yet.
Saves me having to do it when the game "Kid Icarus: Pit's Gangster Adventures in Hell" (Fan translated to "Adult Satan: Lucifer's Epic Adventure") is revealed at E3 in a few months.
@ Adult Satan
Here, Pit, gimme summa that!
Remind me to never search deviantART for Pit fan art... stoopid blasted fricking paedo kids I hate them.
They ought to be strung up, it's the only language they understand but knowing them, they'd probably enjoy it.
PIT IS A 12 YEAR OLD KID FFS! HE'S A CHILD!! STOP PAEDOING ON HIM YOU DISGUSTING PEOPLE! ANYONE WHO THINKS IT'S A GOOD IDEA TO MATCH A 12 YEAR OLD BOY WITH A MAN SHOULD BE STRUNG UP!!! IT'S THE ONLY LANGUAGE THEY UNDERSTAND!!!!
There, I feel a bit better now.
I dunno who I hate more, Fail Factor Infinity or paedo kids.
The rabid fangirl is not happy.
Comments from old blog
OMFG a fangirl that DOESN'T like the yaoi Pit crap? There still is hope...
I search DA or even google and get that junk- it makes me want to kick a puppy off a ship.
(Old post? I know... but I just HAD to say something - being a fan of the games even before Brawl and also being a GUY fan of Pit and also having well over 200 screencaps of Pit on my Wii. Not to mention I'm going crazy over the ~delayed~ new game. The wait is gonna be painful, but hopefully worth it.)

Haha, yeah, I guess I must be a rare breed in that respect. Seriously dude, I was so traumatised the first time I saw that stuff I lost my appetite for 2 days, crumbs! Blech. Stupid fangirls.
I hope the new game lives up to the hype. It looks awesome in the trailer, but his voice! Oh dear God, his voice! Awful, awful!

UGH yeah the voice! They should have kept the Brawl voice actor.
And when I saw the fanart I nearly threw my beloved MacBook out the window! Instead I nearly spat out the apple juice I was drinking. I'm not searching for Pit anymore as I've lost faith in actual good fanart for him.
I hope it lives up to it as well, now that I have to wait more :/
— Eggplant Ninja 09/11/10I hear you, dude. I hear you. I don't look for fanart for any characters now. Most of it is just smutty paedo crap.
To be honest, I'm not too keen on the Brawl voice actress either; I think the Japanese voice actress did a much better job.
I just saw the trailer for Layton vs Phoenix Wright. OH MY GOSH!!!! 3DS is gonna be so cool!
