Add copyright legislation to the checklist of issues Travis has nearly sh*t on

Travis Landing and the No Extra Heroes sequence each turned 15 this week and, to have fun, franchise creator SUDA51 shared some distinctive data about his murderous mascot. Even longtime followers of the franchise resembling myself have been shocked.

My Japanese is awful, however I can learn the language nicely sufficient to acknowledge the characters “Ru-Ku” within the picture above. That interprets to English as “Luke”, which alone would have been sufficient to make Lucasfilm’s attorneys foam on the mouth. Studying by means of the blurb is somewhat more durable for me, however per a confirmed A.I, translation from NMH tremendous fan Travis Dies Each Day, the total textual content reads:

“Trendy Jedi Grasp ‘Luke’. Danshiya ‘Luke’. His actual identify is Travis Landing. A geek and a thug of the hitman enterprise, I’ll tackle any boring killing. There isn’t any creed in any respect. I am going to the mall 4 instances per week. In different phrases, for those who don’t have work, you don’t have time, and also you don’t have associates.”

“He runs danshi [boy?] with home made sabers. All [of] his weapons, Naomi is making. He’s presently ranked eleventh within the UAA rankings. Fanatical fan of Japanese anime, particularly the witch system is a favourite. Now I find it irresistible. I really like T-shirts.”

Anybody who’s performed the sequence is aware of that this isn’t too removed from how the precise in-game dialogue would possibly sound. Aside from the gun in his left hand, and the overt announcement that Travis is, in-fact, a Jedi named after Luke Skywalker, all of this might, plausibly, have been official!

And wait a minute, wasn’t SUDA51’s firm rumored to be engaged on an Aliens sport? That franchise is only one diploma of authorized separation from Star Wars! Possibly gun-toting Travis with this Skywalking nickname nonetheless has an opportunity of constructing it.
