Assuming you mean Javascript’s limitations? Not really, although there are more sophisticated languages that will compile to Javascript (see Typescript for a recent example).

is there some low-level generic type code you can use for those?

Comment on A (Fighting) Game of Thrones by Narutaki

This is a fun idea. I’m not much into fighting games, but I like seeing how characters from Game of Thrones would work in such a setting.

Other character suggestions:
- Arya (how could you forget her!?) should definitely be on the list, she is small and quick and her sword style is more the fencing variety.
- Daenerys using her dragons somehow would probably work.
- The Hound whose major weakness is fire would also be interesting against fire based characters.
- Robert who is more of a brawler than a swordsman would add variety.
- Drogo who was already in the image.

Why am I not surprised the guy who made the hit among the pretentious “games as art” crowd said something of that sort?

Also, I bet these two and/or their defenders would disqualify your first two examples of good Japanese games, because fighting games don’t have deep, engaging plots and single player offerings.

only problem with Musou is that everything is so damn stiff.
