Bragging Rights Reward: Completing both sides of the game's storyline lets you duel all opponents on one save file.
It's particularly strange when compared to the Immortals, which have some fairly grotesque imagery fully intact. but its attack animation is still what is unmistakably Russian Roulette. Also, just like the real game and anime, Barrel Dragon had its revolvers turned into laser cannons. Most of them aren't even realistic guns to begin with, such as Barrel Rock's shoulder cannons or Cyber Commander's missile launcher.
Richard's Historical Villain Upgrade treatment is played up a bit more than usual here, his role assumed by the utterly vile Hei shin. Magician of Black Chaos is particularly poor, as not only does it have no effects, but one of its required monsters (Dark Magician) has only 300 less ATK than it. Some of the coolest and most iconic monsters in the game, commonly possessing high stats or unique abilities, but they take, at minimum, four cards to summon, and most of the stronger ones require powerful cards themselves.
also has a curious aversion to Insect Imitation, and will never use it. tends to ignore monsters that are far from the frontline, even if they have dangerous field-wide effects, such as Great Moth or Binding Chain.
Most others will pretend not to know, and walk right into your facedowns. As such, Pegasus is one of the few CPU opponents who doesn't regularly fall for the player's traps and bluffs, carefully calculating terrain and card effects before making his move.
Ishizu ( known here as "Ishtar") is on the side of the Yorkists.Subverted if you're on Seto's team, as he's a Graceful Loser who nonetheless vows to win the war. Due to limited screen time, Henry Tudor (Yugi) comes off as much more of a jerk, especially in the Lancastrian ending where he takes the credit for the player character's accomplishments once they head back to their own era.Subverted if you're on Yugi's team, where he's a manipulative villain again. Adaptational Heroism: On the Yorkist side, Seto is much less of a villain in this game than he was in Forbidden Memories, or even in the regular canon.
