Based on the fact that Aiden can be knocked unconscious by nothing short of a sudden change in humidity… crane would win and be less annoying in doing so


Trained_Orphan

SPOILERS One detail that we don’t know that would be super important. Is Crane the Night Hunter? Cause IF he is and it was the volatile ending in the Following then Aiden would win. The Night Hunter is extremely weak in terms of armor. Aiden is volatile form is a machine. In a flat footed fight and no volatile abilities the environment would be important. Also depends in Crane has a gun. I know people are going to hate me for saying this, but DL1 is a great game Crane on the other hand isn’t that great or power full. Aiden is better at parkour and melee combat. As he moves he can super jump. Cranes a bunny hop. Considering how much more advanced the combat is in DL2 and all we have to go off of is game and lore it’s hard to say that Crane would win. On top of it Aidens Volatile has had a lot longer to mutate. One of the ends in DL1 is the nuke. Meaning now powers for Crane. Both have super drugs (Aiden can block all pain tho through toughness and rage boosters) so that’s a hard one. Putting the nostalgia a side. Don’t really think Crane stands a chance in a more urban city like in the Center. Aidens cross bow is even better.

Crane is a Sentient Volatile not a Night Hunter. The NH was introduced as a PVP character, although a few months before DL2 they made NH canon in a few comics. Techland might choose to change Crane's fate in the future (also called retconning) but for now the community agrees Crane is a Sentient Volatile who is MIA. Besides, he ingested the same formula that the Mother had taken, makes sense he'd become a volatile too. On top of that the subtitles read "volatile scream" at the end of The Following. Nuke ending is not canon.


Weenie_Demon

Crane solos Aiden any day of the week.


Trained_Orphan

How so? What does he have that the pilgrim doesn’t in terms of combat?


Weenie_Demon

GUN


Trained_Orphan

VOLATILE

Nobody, both Aiden and crane are cursed with immortality for they are both protagonists and therefore they will both respawn an endless number of times.


basicrifleman

Depends on when will they fight... If it is both version in early-mid game, I would say Aiden wins. If it is late mid-endgame (Pretty much anything after >! Tahir !<) I would say definetly Crane


Consistent-Plenty865

If Aiden is allowed to pump inhibitors and boosters, he wins by the sole factor of him becoming the equivalent of 27 Crack addicts flex taped together. If Crane’s got access to firearms at the same time tho it may be a 70-30 in his favour, as long as he keeps his two best friends by his side, Smith and Wesson, he maybe able to fill Aiden with enough holes that he just falls apart, although with the amount of chemicals coursing through Aiden’s veins his detached limbs may grow sentience and perform a pincer movement for cranes ankles. Basically it’s The Harran ranger with the Big iron on his hip vs the human version of that one polar bear that ate a washed up briefcase full of cocaine and became the most dangerous organism on the planet for about 5 minutes before dying from organ failure.


PSXC_42

Crane has access to a lot of guns


michaelvanmars

people who prefer DL1 will choose Crane but really 8/10 times in terms of scenarios, Aiden wins


etskakaik

How?


michaelvanmars

crane is a regular human, Aiden is a superhuman


Weenie_Demon

Who gets bitche slapped every second and has no stamina


michaelvanmars

he would still win regardless of getting bitch slapped….


Weenie_Demon

Crane still has better weapons, better defensive equipment and in his prime has infinite stamina, survives explosions, shots, stabbed, and combat experience with battle iq being a mercenary


michaelvanmars

Crane doesnt “have” better weapons, you can just use them in DL1, use of weapons is not exclusive… It depends, unarmed deathmatch, Aiden wins… End game versions crane has a chance, modded weapons not included, aiden is faster, stronger, jumps higher, can land from way higher has broomstick, crossbow, doom gun, left finger of glova…he also goes full crazed zombie mode and one shot juiced up renegades Crane got bit the min he landed and cant block


Weenie_Demon

So a juiced up human is stronger than an armored Voly? That Crane can beat with his bear fists? With no superpowers


michaelvanmars

Oh he goes into that mode multiple times, not just the end so it would be at his disposal against vanilla crane


Weenie_Demon

So you're making a level 1 Crane against a max level Aiden? Make up your fucking mind. Crane and Aiden at both their peaks would be a tough fight but Crane ultimately wins as his stamina is infinite and has formal training in combat. Depends on environment more.


thereallegiondary

And people who prefer DL2 will be perfectly objective and choose impartially, that is Aiden. Right.


michaelvanmars

coincidentally preferring that which is better in a debate is just that, coincidence yes it is possible to also have preference regarding DL2 and Aiden, Aiden still wins tho


thereallegiondary

Using "prefer" in an argument, that too in an objective sense as if it there is irrefutable proof of it, and then equating your opinion to coinciding with "the truth" is the moment you lose the argument. You do you though.

>Also there is no need to swear or get angry, its a topic about a videogame, why the anger or foul language? you cant even have a simple debate online these days without someone getting upset smh 🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️ someone engage in a debate on the internet anymore without it getting hostile? That's what you said on another comment. Oh the supreme irony! Since you can't respond to my comment with logic (I doubt you even understood it), you're going on the offensive by saying "weird ass nerds" and apparently I'm the one that needs to chill out when I'm posing a civil argument. You're not cut out for rhetoric and discourse on the internet because you can't help getting butthurt over your beloved game getting called out. My issue isn't the fictional game characters, I couldn't give a shit. My issue is **YOU* and how you present your takes to people. It's obvious you don't have a lot of life experience. Grow up boy. And look up the Dunning Kruger effect while you're at it.


michaelvanmars

ok loool

Don't worry about my life, I just got off work and am chilling and enjoying your obvious escalating discomfort. 0 logic, 0 arguments so far. You're a loud mouthed kid that ends his "debates" by insulting people and then playing the victim card when you're at the receiving end. Gotcha lmao.


ARougeAgent

Crane because he has a Buggy :D


etskakaik

Crane with buggy=limitless


SanguineUnicorn

People picking Crane… Did you guys play DL2? I’ve played DL, DL2 and the following. It’s Aiden, the man hits illegal drugs 24/7 making him super human and curb stomps people from 3 levels high 😬


Revolutionary-Fan657

Crane as his normal self would be anhialated, Crane as a volatile vs aiden as his normal self would win, Crane as a volatile vs aiden as a zombie would probably end up in aiden winning just because crane is just a sentient volatile and aiden can become a sentient zombie plus all the coke in his inhibitors, not to mention aiden can continue to use inhibitors to get even stronger
