SC VII when?
Thanks to mashen 8, never ever
>>719606092tekken needs to fail for soul calibur to come back
>>719606092After DOA7 which is after VF6That's my hopium
how big did her tits get again?speaking of fanservice 3d fighters, i should replay bloody roar
>>719606092Why are you torturing me like this anon ;_;
>>719606092intentionally buried so tekken can be the cash cow bamco fighter (they failed)
>>719606092they should do soul calibur extreme beach volleyball first
>>719606092Please kick my little thing and laugh at its size Ivy !!!
they ruined that franchise with the stupid cinamatic bullshit
>>719607893>cinematicWhat do you mean?
Soulcalibur feels significantly better to play than tekken because you don't have to use unintended mechanics to move around and the game feels satisfying from the getgo so it's easy to hook a friend in for sessions.Get rid of reversals and supers, pretty much the best 3d fighter at that point.
>>719606092When stops being the most successful 3d fighter and more beloved older brother to the series, and when okubo goes back to namco to push the idea for a new game. Never.
It's kinda weird, but I'd be "fine" with the series ending with V. It wasn't good, so it would be understandable if they just decided to shelve it.But they eventually made VI, and it's an amazing game. Even with the small budget, you could tell the devs really had passion for the series. And it was very well received and sold well. Not getting another game in these circumstances really makes me mad.
The last one sucked because no voice chat and the text chat was ridiculously censored.
>>719610252>voice chatwho cares>text chatwho cares
post more ivy
6 was bad so probably never. Porting 2&3 to modern consoles is far more important.
>>719611807you first
>>719612038>6 was badWhy? I liked it
>>719606651about thiiiiiiiiiiis big
>>719612038nah 6 was basedmy only major regret with it is that bamco still hadn't figured out how to do rollback
WHAT A THRILL TO SEE A HUMAN ON THE BRINK OF DEATH ABANDON THEIR SENSE OF REASON FOR DESPAIR OR HOPEHA HA HA HA HAIT IS LIKETHE SWEETEST NECTAR TO MEHE HEI COULD NEVER GROW TIRED OF THE HUMAN RACEHA HA HA HAEH HACOUGH
>>719606092I hope eventually
There's definitely room for it in the current market
>>719606092never because they'll have to tone down the male gaze and it would be too obvious. . . plus insert a trans bait character or make an old character one lol.
>>719615814They didn't do it with VI, so I don't think they would do that with VII. Didn't people criticize V because it toned down the default outfits too?Also it's kinda funny how SC flies under the radar when it comes to horniness, I'd say the series it's only second to DoA in that aspect.
I have nothing to add to the topic except my appreciation for Ivy's tits
>>719606092A bro from ny kenkyushitsu is there. Namco still has the fucks who made Unknown and they're still deathly afraid of tits. Also, having a meta where a bunch of guest characters would fit better in soulcaliber over tekken would be good.
>>719617081>Namco still has the fucks who made Unknown and they're still deathly afraid of tits.bro a dev team from Edmonton whose last game gigaflopped isn't going to be involved in the development of SC
Is rather have Pokken 2 first. It's been 10 years. (Same devs that made SC made Pokken)
>>719617081They just buffed the Tekken women's tits by 5% so maybe there's hope
>>719617464Wrong gif goddamut
>>719617297The people in Japan who greenlit them for that much fucking money, and greenlit that dumb live serfvice game are. >>719617513Definitely a favorable sign. But that's still a long way from fucking Ivy, Taki and Voldo.
>>719606292Tekken already failed but I doubt it's gonna bring SC back.
There's no chance of SC getting desexualized because it already happened once (SC5), it failed horribly, almost killing the series, and 6 actually went back to the extremely sexualized females (not even getting into the custom character parts, jesus christ)
>>719617747You could see Taki's nipples in the most recent game, I don't think there's anything to worry about
THE SOUL NO LONGER BURNS :(
>>719619175That was pre-prude western value pandering japanese mega corporations. Look at square with Tifa. Jap companies censor themselves to pander to feminist western ideals now.
>>719617790This, fuck Harada
>be brat>get sc2>god these fucking grabs are cool>link spanking ivy gifAnd that's how I learned to jerk off
>noname55
>>719606092I don't want current bamco to touch SC at all.
I'm going to post a lobby in 15-20 minutes. I'm cooking soup in the meantime though, so expect me to take breaks and there's gonna be a longer break in about 1:30 hours when I gotta add some more ingredients.
steam://joinlobby/544750/109775242655510497/76561199021052341
>>719621515it's funny how many stories like this there are
>>719616145>>719619175Even SCV hardly toned down returning character designs expect for Ivy. It's true that replacement characters were more covered up than their predecessors, but there was also Elysium in the game.
I've always liked how Ivy looked too. Like fashionably. I know it's just strings but the colour, texture and shapes are all really pleasing. >>719614759Like here, it seems messy, but you see how much the asymmetrical design adds to her shape and balanced compared to the symmetrical top right set. You can really see it when the old website censored her with the extra fabric, it completely fucked up lines from her face to neck to tits. I'm always kinda amazed with DoA's various lingerie and swimsuit designs but they never quite feel entirely erotic or characterful. Sexy, yes but not I. The same way really good shape, lines and colours can do for a character.Voldo, also, is an extreme example of this and why Voldo's most recent design with the tailcoat looks kinda messy. He needs the tight rings, he needs the insect like segmentation of his costume. The tailcoat and breastplate are too human and connective which ruins the entire effect of him. Even his older furry jester costume was segmented around various parts of him that twist and move. Also Aeon best boy and did nothing wrong.
>>719609086>Soulcalibur feels significantly better to play than tekken because you don't have to use unintended mechanics to move aroundSC2fags still say its the best game in the franchise in terms of everything.For competitive players, shit like step blocking made it more fun.
>>719624026i like her hueg tiddies
>>719624026I've always thought that SC's character designs were better than DoA's in general. DoA's designs are just too generic most of the time. The textures are too smooth and featureless on everything from character's skin to their clothing. Too few different colors on clothing most of the time as well. Ironically, male characters in DoA were better designed than the female cast most of the time because they weren't afraid to give them distinctive features. Female characters in DoA are prohibited from straying from the idea of the most conventional kind of beauty imaginable and it just ends up making them look bland in the end.
>>719624576 SC2 is still the gold standard, no question. Step blocking, guard impacts that actually *felt* satisfying, and movement that didn't feel like you were stuck in molasses. It had that perfect blend of fluidity and depth. Later games kept trying to fix what wasn't broken with stupid gimmicks like reversal edge or armor breaks. SC2 was pure-every decision mattered without being shackled by cinematic fluff. The only downside was that it spoiled us forever.
The soup is ready now. No one joined my lobby in the meantime.
>>719628231sorryyour soup looks nice
>>719608178Probably the rock paper sicsors button from 6. Yeah it's not good or bad. Just don't know what they were going for. I usually just dodge and that works 90% of the time
>>719627665Yeah as much as I liked 3 that game had an insane amount of balance issues. Those guest character and custom cas's could rape in a matter of seconds
>>719615105Truly, the greatest.
>>719614759Is ivy a freebleeder?
I still don't know how SC6 turned out as well as it did. It was quite literally a breath of fresh air when you compared it to the big boys like Tekken and Street Fighter at the time.Though I hesitate to use the word soul, you can tell a lot of effort went into it and it felt like they wanted to make a good send off (considering they thought SC6 would be the last entry) if nothing else.
>>719623254>>719628231Im sorry for that, maybe one day when someone will make SC2 playable in Fighcade
>>719630810I can make an SC2 room in Dolphin too.
>>719630983Sorry dude, either you go back playing SC1 or suffer with delay based netcode until some slippi dev will inject SC2 with rollback
>>719631305I can play SC1 on Fightcade too if you want to. Just say something so I know who to challenge.
>>719631625>I can play SC1yeah, but i never played a 3d fighter before...
Soul Calibur hasn't been good since 3. These are very bad competitive fighters so they need fun single player modes.
>>719606092I have like Ivy in like 20 different outfits thanks to customization... so many gallons lost to her...
>most fighting games are shit>but they all have the best designed and coolest characters
Let's wildly speculate about guest characters.>Maelle and/or Verso>Ghost of Tsushima / Yotei>Yasuke and that lezzer>Clive(?) from FFXVI>random gatcha cunt>random Elden Ring/Nightreign cunt>onions Kratos>the Lies of P twink>random chink game cunt (wuchang or the monkey?)
2>3>1>Edge>6>5>4
>>719632241>onions KratosSC character: You've returned... what changed?nu-Kratos: I've become better man...
>>719632027>These are very bad competitivego watch your e-retards online no one else gives a fuck about your retarded ass
>>719632402I am saying the games should be more casual and not cater to competitive play dipshit
>>719632027>These are very bad competitive fightersGood. I don't want those sweats stinking up any fun online lobbies.
>>719632241Wait... red haired french teen fencer with a brother compress Maelle is already in the game, isn't she?
FUCK >>719632849*brother complex
>>719632345two concurrent threads weren't enough for a spic like you, I see
Make SC good again>No more cheesy guest characters bringing in noisy characterfags from jewtendo or whatever other anime shit is flavor of the week>No more CAW so those same retards can't just shit up the game with their own bastardized translations of those same characters >No more Unrealslop, use a real proprietary engine again>No more cutscene hypebait super meter moves
>>719632187Characters are literally all a fighting game has, they HAVE to be good. FGs don't have a real world, quests, monster hordes, plot worth anything, etc. It's 100% characters.
>>719632975you mad?
>>719633208Unironically a Tekken X SoulCalibur game would bring the franchise back
>>719635031A whole cast trying to use their fists against a cast armed with weapons would be monumentally retarded. Heihachi as a gimmick novelty was one thing, and he was not high on the tier list.
>>719606092>try to pick up 6>nobody around my skill level to fight against>try joining discord>only a single guy to play with>he stops playing whenever cyberpunk releasedThis happens with every fighting game I try to get into
>>719635446Boils my piss that he got in instead of Cloud because of licensing fuckery.13yo me would have actually gone ballistic.
>>719635446>A whole cast trying to use their fists against a cast armed with weapons would be monumentally retardedwait till you see tekken 8
Taki is best girl
>>719632241I for one would love Zabuza, Trunks or Kuwabara. You know, because Bandai Namco owns the rights to make games with them in it.
People would 100% still be playing 6 right now if it had rollback and cross play. But unfortunately it released in that transitional period just before those both became standardized.
>>719632241since it's bandi/namcoZoro
>>719632241If one came out in the next few years I would figure almost certainly Onimusha what with the new game. Or a Monster Hunter hunter
>>719639495True.
>>719639803Why don't they just do a 2.0 patch and make it happen?
>>719640283bamco doesn't really give a fuck about soulcalibur
>>719620331That "most recent game" came out seven years ago.
>>719640534no it wasn't that long ago haha
I tried getting back into SC6 and damn. I forgot how fast paced this game is. Anyone got some reccomended combo videos for Kilik and Setsuka?
>>719640883bro...
Is tekken 8 actually a failure or are people just exaggerating? Sure i know there's controversy about the recent patches, but it sold well, didn't it
>play SC2>have loads of fun due to 0 cinematic shit and gimmicksCurrent fighting games suck so much ass, Tekken 8, SF5. Shame we "have" to play the newest ones just because they are new.
>>719643574i like cutscenes supers :)could do without all the slow motion though
>>719643698I hate the SC supers, but I guess I could live with it. But why the fuck do they have to give the losing guy a free bar besides prolonging the match? Just let the better guy win already.
>>719643574And combos used to be like 5 hits max back in the day. Then you'd get right back up and back to fucking fighting.Now the average combo is 15+ hits and lasts 30+ seconds.
>>719643574>>have loads of fun due to 0 cinematic shit and gimmicksstop playing them like i didnew fighting games are shit and no worth playing
>>719643574This. And I don't know if it's just me but 2 feels the fastest in terms of its movement. It feels so easy to side step in the game. Inputs also feel snappier than in any of the games after 3. Same thing goes for Street Fighter 3.
>>719643572It's okay. But it definitely went in the wrong direction.Full super meter EVERY ROUND AND rage arts at low health.Every character has stances and installs, Every move has insane tracking so sidestepping is completely worthless,Most moves are + on block so you're rewarded to just mindlessly mash and be ultra aggressive.BattlepassesShit customisation. No fun content or modes. It's ok if you like Tekken I guess but it could have and should have been better. What else 3D is there to play? It's this or nothing really.
>>719644471>what else is 3Danything?we dont have 2d fighting games since blazblue nearly 20 years ago
>>719644274Yup. That's why modern fighting games pad out the healthbar now. Look at any Tekken 3 tournament back in the day. A simple jab to chip off like 8-12% of your opponent's health. Now it's more like 3-5%.
>>719644601Do you not understand what a 3d fighting game is?
>>719644601He meant 2D as in 2 directions. He's right. We don't have any other 8 directional fighting games. You have DOA 6 which came out 6 years ago and barely sold.
>>719644406Balancefag shit started after 2 so the game gets slower over each installation.
>>719644975yesanything that moves the camera around like sf4 sf5 sf6 tekken sc the ugly shit thats the new kof and whatever else
>>719645023VF6 is the last hope
>>719606092Did you spam Harada's Twitter asking for a new SoulCalibur? Oh you didn't? Maybe you don't really want it, then
>>719645140Tekken 9 is gonna be his last game so he's not gonna bother with SC.
>>719645140why would i want a sequel to a game when the last 3 are shit and the only thing in common with the franchise its the names?>oh here's sophia>not . is its daughter and completely different!
>>719645024Maybe 4 and afterwards. 3 still felt just as fast since it was a rehash of 2 but it was a lot more broken in terms of both balance and on a fundamental level. Memory card corruptions and variable cancel glitches made the game shit for both normies and sweats. That's where SoulCalibur died if you ask me.
SC6 is literally the best game in the series though
>>719645269Maybe if we're lucky we'll se a re-release of SC2 HD Online
>>719645794>unreal plastic people and gay supersLolno
>>719643572It's not a failure people are just saying anything to find a bit of cope about a possible new SC. it's a game that rivals 4 and tag 2 in how much of a shit game it is but it is still a success even if much less so than t7 now that SF didn't fuck up this gen.
>>719645794if i wanted cutscenes in the middle of combat i would play uncharted
>>719645794It would be if it actually had good singleplayer content. Multiplayer netcode is shit. This game is only good for locals.
>>719606092Nobody bought SC VI, so never.
>>719644601>>719645074Retard
>>719645074
>>719645991It exceeded expectations though
>>719645919I liked the singleplayer...>>719645991Wrong, it was considered a success sales-wise even with Bamco's crazy expectations for their games.
>>719637574Does the demake put Cloud in the running for the next SC?>>719639608Zabuza would be a wierd but good pick, since he's light on jutsu.Trunks would be a powerscale issue but he could work with the right story nerf.Kuwabara would be great. I can picture his weapons so clearly.>>719639814There could be a style transition issue but Zoro would actually be great.>>719639918I'm not weeb enough to know if the timeline works with Musashi. Can see it working really well though.>>719639495Pic just for you
>>719606092wholesome knight lady when
I want Lu Bu in the next one. Or a SC-like with all historical characters instead of fictional
>>719646632Bro, your Hilde?
>>719606092I want nothing unless they look as good as the SCIV modelsSCVI looked like trash
>>719632241John wick
>>719646083a draw in a paper is 2da figurine is 3di hope that helps you understand the difference between 2d and 3d
>>719646116>I liked the singleplayer...I didn't. You can't customize starting lives in arcade mode. There's no survival mode, weapon master, time attack, or team battle. Those were things I played to death in SoulCalibur 2.
>>719620331Look at the Setsuka DLC and tell me they wont try to censor the next SoulCalibur.
>>719646930Extra puffy
>>719647620>>719619175
>>719646930Nah you're full of shit. Ivy had an actually attractive face for the first time in franchise history.
>>719617464>>719617513They all still look the fucking same, who the fuck cares if they have bigger tits when it's the exact same body and they all have same face
SCV was great but no one wants to admit that.
>>719648525>Ivy had an actually attractive face for the first time in franchise history.Oh so you're just insane, that explains it
>>719632241Eve from Stellar BladeCloud or SephirothRyu Hayabusa
>>719606092After Tekken 8 and frankly most modern fighting games, I do not want SC7. And I love SC6. I just want good netcode for SC2 or SC6.
>>719645841Bamco re-releasing anything? Not their style.
>>719645991It’s the third best selling in the series
>>719644471VF5Revo is right there
>>719651275Ryu would be tight but Namco and Harada absolutely hate Koei Tecmo and seethe about it to this day. They accepted an Atelier Yumia collaboration with Tekken 8, and while Tecmo put in the effort to make a full new costume, a DLC level, and a new boss fight, the only thing Namco did for their end of the collab was put a jpg of Atelier Yumia on a t shirt and a single strand of hair as a customization item.
>>719635031I've always thought that Zasalamel (well a reincarnation of him)would be a really fun character for Tekken , give him a supermode where he gets 8WR and the sythe.
>>719632241Is there even a point to being excited or speculate about a guest character anymore? The time when Soulcalibur did it, it was special. Now it’s just every fucking game on the market. The only thing that would get people raise an eyebrow if it was something not from a game. If they were smart they would look into the most common created characters are based on, so that choice is probably Guts from Berserk.
>>719632241some jet from ace combat
I've been playing sc2 on my switch 2 a lotI wish I had friends to play withis a gamecube controller a good way to play sc2
>>719619175>6 actually went back to the extremely sexualized femalesdidn't stop the series killing itself anyways LMAO
>>719652006Guts would be pretty cool, would actually get a slight reaction out of me.It would be even cooler if they did what Smash did, like Cloud AND Sephiroth. Add both Guts and Griffith. That would truly get a rise out of me like Sephiroth did.I guess its sort of similar to Darth Vader and Yoda huh. That seems proper given how Good and Evil is prominent in this series with Soul Calibur and Soul Edge.
>>719647547I really liked the RPG-ish mode, and the story mode. Survival would be cool, not sure why some games don't include it, seems so easy to do. The arcade mode works kinda like a time attack mode in VI though.
>>719654481because there's more than sexualized females to a gameit helps but it wont prevent a shit game from being shit
Which SC games are worth emulating/pirating if I just want to oogle the jiggle physics?>in b4 just watch them on YouTubeNo I want to be able to control the "action" myself. Bonus if I can zoom in with the camera.
>>719656256I spent like a good hour or two chimping out just looking at Ivy in 6 when I first tried her out.
>>7196562562,3 and 4
>>7196562561+2 are the best ones so those ones.
>>719656256VI
>>719648818 Lmao you say that like SC3 Ivy didn’t have peak early 2000s dominatrix-energy with that smug smirk and dead-eyed stare. SC6 just softened her up to match modern art style, but she always looked like a BDSM boss fight. You're coping if you think VI made her "actually attractive" instead of just more palatable to modern weeb sensibilities.
I'm pretty sure many of you never actually picked up SCV(because your main character was deleted), but the Character Customization was some genius designed system, that later got copied by "illusion" and many other gamedevs for the next decade or so.The Customization got so degreaded in SCVI, people were simply going for mods day1.
>>719653902Hell yeah
Harada already explained why we're not getting another SC anytime soon. It's a long but good read.https://x.com/harada_tekken/status/1805489285875089826?s=46
>>719658192>explainedyou mean "twisted the story to fit his own agenda"
>>719658282Why do you say that? And what's the "real" story then?
>>7196562562 and 3. 4 if you have a beefy machine that run rpcs3. Idk how good SC4 is on Xenia.
>>719658192literally no one except 20 IQ people believe in Harada after what happened this year bro
>>719648525and every model looks like ass>>719657527I dropped it quickly because the game got simplifiedEveryone did more damage to cover the fact that everyone has less moves
>>719656256ii and iii are cute with their janky upskirtsiv looks fine v plainly looks nice but has less characters
>>719614759Her red costume with the red tights is pretty cool.
>>719658192That was pretty insightful
I've only played sc2is there any reason to play the others
>>719643805Have you been asleep for the last 15 years? Fighting games have been adding comeback mechanics for ages because scrubs and casuals get pissed off if they feel like they can't fight back. >>719645024Not true. SC4 was the slowest and nearly everybody (except for a few redditors) complained about it. The PSP game, Broken Destiny, made it faster. I can't remember how fast SC5 was, but it was definitely faster than SC4.
>>719656256II is very charming, VI is the best looking.>>719659331They're all good games, maybe with the exception of V (haven't played it)
>>719659491but what's the point of playing the others if 2 is the best one
>>719659491>VI is the best looking.not with those copypasted butterfaces
>>719646632Salia will always be an NPC who lusts after Siegfried's cock.>>719648525Nearly all the characters in SC6 have the same face model as they did in SC4/SC5. You can literally get the same textures from those two games and slap it on their SC6 model with little issue.>>719659656SC2's faces look worse than SC6. Only nostalgiafags thinks SC2's faces look good because they don't remember how bad Talim, with her giant bug eyes; Sophitia, with her face that barely has any details; or Xianghua, with her long donkey-face, looked.
>>719659331No, which is why its annoying that no version of SC exists with good online play. They could remaster any of them with rollback and cover all lingering desire for the series.
>>719606092Just wanted to drop by and show some Ivy appreciation. We need more of this character in the world.
>>719659776unique face models > copypasted bullshitevery girl in sc6 looks the fucking same and they're all ugly
>>719659585Because maybe II won't be the best for you? You won't know until you try the others. Maybe you'll like the mechanics of a specific title better than II. Also they're just fun games.>>719659656I disagree.
>>719659901Every girl in SC2 looks different and they look even worse. I'd rather take SC6's faces than go back to the shit SC2 had. SC3's faces was a step up in every way except for Kilik's face.
>>719606292tekken is failing rn cause of SC
>>719659901Any time I see someone use the same face argument, it's always a retard from reddit or a tranny from resetera. Literally everyone was praising SoulCalibur VI for not having butt-ugly women when the game came out, but then the same retards who complain about having hot women in video games always call them same faces.This board is really going to shit if people here are unironically spouting the same opinion as those fags.
>>719606092Not happening cause the main guy behind it left
>>719660497Yeah I noticed it too, it's the same "argument" they use against DOA
>>719632849I just bought sc 3 and trying to unlock her is a pain in the ass. I found her one time in tales of sales and she raped me because im not good at yoshi yet
How am I supposed to play SC2 on gamecube controller with that god awful d-pad?
>>719656256>Bonus if I can zoom in with the camera.SCVI has free camera mods, nude mods, slomo hacks, and VR.
>>719633208>>No more cheesy guest characterswhat a soulless thing to wish fori hope you will get the newest Final Fantasy character in SC7. just to see little purists like you seethe
>>719660713Hate sc3 Raphael's look
>>719660714try not having the hands of a 3 years old
>>7196562561, 2 and the Arcade Edition hack of 3.
Why does Cassandra attack with her butt? That's weird...
>>719661081his dandy vampire look was a chioce
>>719661221she attacks with moussaka braps, very effective
>>719632241Demetrian Titus

>>719661129nta but the dpad on the gamecube is tiny and almost requires having the hands of a three year old. I actually use the control stick on Link Edition and then switch to the dpad for ps2 version of 2 and 3
>>719661464w-wow haha that's so w-weird lol
>>719661464sounds like a real scholar and gentleman
>>719660714Honestly, just emulate it and use a PS5 controller.
>>719610252Japaanese game started taking out voice chat for some fucking reason. The only FGs with it now are NRS game.
Ivy is hot and all, but you simply can't beat Taki.
>>719660714>>719661575use the control stick, it has an 8 way gateit's literally the best pad you could use for the game
>>719661808your harry is cropped
>>719660052>>719663165What's the use case of her outfit being like that?
>>719660892>>719656256 here, I got a lot more varied responses than I thought but I might go for SCVI if you could link the camera mod (Googling it only gives a Cheat Engine table with no tutorial).Otherwise I'll just emulate II and III instead since those were the most suggested and they both have a in-game character profile viewer.
>>719664290uuuuuhhh high mobility and low maintenance?
>>719665023Why not just fight naked then? Wouldn't it be more efficient?
>>719665220
>>719665220Ivy is a very stylish and fashionable person. It's also probably a tactic to distract her opponents while having a slight amount of protection.
For me, it's Tira.
>>719664290She's dressed like that because the snake sword took up a lot of memory, so the devs had to design a character with a simple outfit. A lot of different designs were proposed but the one they settled on was a dominatrix.The in-universe reason is because her snake sword is alive and skimpy dominatrix outfits gives her a closer connection to it. That's the actual reaso they gave in SC6.>>719664464SC6 comes with the Nvidia photo mode. The Cheat Engine script also has the ability to control the camera using numpad, but it also can remove some of the limits of the Nvidia photo mode. The instructions to use the cheat engine camera are out there somewhere, but I can't remember where
>>719612038My friend says 3 is shit is he retarded? Ive only played 2 4 5 and 6
>>719648525Nice try fag but Ivy always had an attractive face
>>719665898one of my favorite characters in SC>voldo>ivy>Tirayoshimitsu and mitsirugi are fine too
This design is good too
>>7196664344 Tira is the best but 6 is pretty good too.
>>719665220i would absolutely play a game with ancient greek battledress, even if it was just dudesstabbing someone right in the floppy dick would of course be a critical hitand then the persians show up, all wearing pants, going "what the fuck" and go home
>>719666434this is my favorite of her looks
>>7196658986 Tira nearly destroyed my dick.
I still haven't done story mode in VI, is it worth it?
>>719606092Never. And it might unironically be a good thing.Look at how awful Tekken 8 is. Would you really want those guys to make a SC game? Because the SC team was cannibalized by the Tekken team. Those who didn't join are gone. The SC dream is over. Hold onto the good memories. Reinstall 6 and have fun with friends.
>>719617513I want to marry reina
Did Bamco fix Tekken 8? Maybe if it doesn't recover we can get a SC game next... maybe... it's not impossible...
I keep forgetting they put Haohmaru in 6. Looking up screens made me kind of nostalgic for when I played the older games in the series... Great memories with 2 at the arcade, and beating my friend who went to tourneys and was mad obsessed with the game, lol. Does 6 have decent singleplayer like the previous entries? Loved weapon master.
>>719669975Yes, 6 is the most fun I've had in singleplayer in a modern fighting game. It's not quite as feature packed as 3, but it's still pretty good.You have a general story mode, then a character specific story mode (only one or two fights, DLC characters also get story), plus an arcade mode (no endings, that's what the character story mode is for)The big singleplayer mode is Libra of Souls. You create a character and go on an RPG-lite adventure, meeting SC characters on the way, doing side quests, purchasing equipment and weapons, etc. I think it took me around 30 hours to finish the first time around, doing all side quests and stuff. There's two different endings too. Then you have the usual character creation.You shouldn't expect too much from the presentation though, the game was made on a budget. The stories are mostly told through text like a visual novel, there aren't many cutscenes.
>>719668534>The SC dream is overNo...
>>719668534>Reinstall 6 and have fun with friends.I can’t the netcode is too ass that’s the problem. I just want a Soulcalibur with good netcode. I keep getting tempted to cope with SC1 on fightcade at this point
>>719606092No Yun-Seong no buy some.
>>719669431Better, they made Tekken 8 much much worse.
>>719668401It's the best story mode the series has to offer since, not only does it have a beginning, middle and end, but it also has one for nearly every character. Almost every other game prior only had endings and you had to get the start by either going on a website or buying a Japanese guide book.Unfortunately, it filters out casuals because it's presented in a visual novel format.>>719671869Yun-seongfags having autistic meltdowns on various forums for four years straight over Hwang getting in makes me hope he never returns.

>My favourite fighting game franchise got murdered despite selling perfectly fine
>>719673927It's a weird feeling. There's literally no reason for Bandai to not make another game in the series.
>>719674307They're too busy making DLC for Tekken 8 for the next 10 years as they milk the community dry with their live service slop
>>719674504>a new sc would have fomo battle passes like the new tekken Know what? I think it's better it stays dead.
I'd be alright with a battle pass that contains CAC stuff if it means I get a SC as good as 6 with improvements to the rough bits.
>>719675374Yeah and half the roster cut so they could resell it to you, and a shitton of cosmetic items also... oh wait, they kinda did that with 6 already. Never mind. FUCK BAMCO
They should focus more on the singleplayer, thats all most people care aboutYou may proceed to give me (You)s
>>719606092The day SCVII is revealed will be the day that Ivy not only had sex, but also got a kid...and a potential host for Soul Edge ending with her being constantly worried to the point of having sleep deprivation.
>>719606092I dont want it, it will have a heat system and more large scale cinematic attacks like SF. Tekken was ruined by that ideal and every SC after 4 was dreadful to play
>>719675616They already had lots of CAC dlc for SCV. The only difference between SCV and SCVI is that the former sold a bunch of original shit whereas the latter is mostly stuff from SCIV, SCV and the freemium PS3 game
>>719675535>I'd be alright with a battle pass that contains CAC stuffI wouldn't.
>>7196759476 was better than 4 and 5 though
>>719676028That's because you dont play video games, just buy them
>>719675738That's not really an unpopular opinion when it comes to SC.
>>719676103What
>>719676046Reversal edge single handedly makes that false
>>719676272RE is a literal non-issue unless you're a turbo retarded shitter
>>719676583Nah, even after tweaks it still makes the game worse than any other SC on its own
>>719676704No.
>>719676874I guess I'll just say defending RE makes you a turbo retarded shitter then and reversal edge this conversationBut I don't mean that tho anon, I don't get that heated about opinions
>>719676704That’s a retarded conclusion to have. You can just say you get hard walled at bronze in something like SF6 and save us the time,
>>719677016Reversal edge DOESN'T FUCKING EXIST PAST TURBO SHITTER RANKS BECAUSE IT'S FREE
>>719677028No, a terrible conclusion would be defending a cancerous mechanic and bringing up the rank in a completely separate game.
would a butt attack actually hurt irl
>>719675738>singleplayerI will pay for a VR date sim mode.
>>719677265With enough force on your chest, it probably would break some of your ribs
There's nothing wrong with Reversal Edge desu
>>719677406oh that would be just awful haha
>>719676272SC4's slow speed is something you have to deal with every second you play the game. You literally cannot ignore how shitty this makes the game feel.RE is a mechanic that filters out retarded casuals who only knows how to spam. Everybody else knows the strengths and weaknesses of RE and can easily deal with it, meaning that most people won't use it that often unless they're playing with a literal beginner. You can go multiple consecutive games without experiencing RE if you or your opponent isn't shit.If RE is so bad that it makes it even worse than the shittiest SC game, then you've only exposed yourself as a shitter.

>>719673927Soulcalibur is weird because it’s sales and ip in general would be an IP a lot of companies, especially fighting game devs would kill to have. And yet Bamco let’s it rot like a lot of their other successful ips because they have another one that is even more successful.
>>719678824That's the consensus, but you're always gonna find some contrarians on /v/
>>719679171Yeah, it sucks. Is there even significant overlap between Tekken players and SoulCalibur players? They're very different games.
>>719633208Goofy shit like this is what I love about SC. It didn't fucking need meters or soul crush or any of that shit.>hurr but den da peeple keep blockingThe back and forth blocking entanglements were the coolest shit to get in to with friends.
>>719677407Fighting games really thrive off of first impressions, and SCVI has an unbelievably bad one. I remember hating the fuck out of the beta/demo they put out and never even touched and game when it dropped. Ended up buying it on sale during COVID and playing quite a lot and warmed up to it.
>>719673684Glad I came back to the thread to see this. Thanks, anon! I'm off to pirate SCVI.
>>719645794>SC6 is literally the best game in the series thoughIt is an amazing entry. It's the best overall, but it's lacking in areas that past games did better. SC7 just needs a bigger budget because it is well known that SC6 was made on a tiny one.
>>719651501>It’s the third best selling in the seriesIt's way more than that. It is the third best selling in the series in retail alone. Digital sales were not counted and have never been revealed.
>>719648746>SCV was great but no one wants to admit thatA large portion of the core cast was replaced with inferior versions, character movesets were reduced, and guard impact was sidelined for Just Guard. Worst of all, side step had its frames increased to i20, making it incredibly dangerous to move. In a series where eight way movement is a core part of its appeal, why would you do that.No, SC5 was not a good game.
>>719682020lol
>>719676272>Reversal edge single handedly makes that falseReversal Edge can be ignored. It only gets spammed in low ranks.
>>719645794It’s the best game it was allowed to be given its context. The fact that SC6 wasn’t a dumpster fire and can be considered good period was a fucking miracle
Okubo... *coughs*My soul still... burns....
>>719683896>watching him on stage for Cygames related stuff now constantly hoping to mention Soulcalibur even though he literally can’t in his positionSad. Those Granbluefags don’t know the man they have
>>719682020Are you sure? The 2m number was from bamco themselves, not sure why they wouldn't include digital.
>>719617464The cleavage is still very poor quality
>>719633208But SC1 already exists
>>719648746No they completely ignored Talim
>>719686062>Are you sure? The 2m number was from bamco themselves, not sure why they wouldn't include digitalBamco does not reveal digital sales. Everything is based on retail numbers. It's no different to Sony where people kept on saying that Bloodborne only sold over 2 million copies, only for everyone to find out that in 2022 they had sold 7.4 million.
>>719617464>>719617513An improvement for sure, but still looks bad. Also I hate how every Tekken girl has basically same body.
>>719687318Yeah that's a pretty weird assumption to make based on this.https://x.com/soulcalibur/status/1417655554126663680There are publishers that don't reveal digital sales to third party trackers like NPD group; Nintendo and Take-Two come to mind. But bamco is not one of them. It's extremely likely digital sales were indeed counted. However, SC6 was also on gamepass for a year, so that probably dragged down its sales a bit.
>>719687912Well I tell you want anon, go and send a letter to Bandai Namco and ask if they do or not. I don't give a shit about sales, but you do.
>>719688113I can't, they got a restraining order after all my letters asking for SC7 and calling harada a nigger
>>719687667>Also I hate how every Tekken girl has basically same body.That's the price of having customization parts shared between characters, anon. It's like that for nearly 99% of games.
>>719688246Then send a letter under a different name then.
>>719633208>No more cheesy guest characters bringing in noisy characterfags from jewtendo or whatever other anime shit is flavor of the weekLink almost singlehandedly ruins a majority of SC2 discussion nowadays because it's always filled with Zeldafags who know jackshit about fighting games wanting to gush on about Link.>Best game in the series?

Dunno, but Link's projectiles are overpowered!>How do you step block in SC2? I dunno, I just love playing as Link!
My spicy take, they should partially keep RE in the next SC. Specifically, the defensive stance that deflects shit. Remove the RPS minigame that takes way too long for minimal interaction, have it just do an attack that gives a chunk of damage and maybe a knockdown, and make it lose to throws. Maybe let people choose to cancel it into a backstep after deflecting.The idea of an anti-mash defensive option that drops off in utility at higher levels is helpful in a weapons-based 3D fightan where mid/low mixups are very accessible and attacks have longer range. Good tool to help noobies deal with brainless mashers. Even at higher levels, it contributes to the meta by introducing RE-safety as a meaningful move property to give attacks different niches, which is nice for 3D fightan with huge move pools.
>>719688429SC females have different body types, don't they?
>>719689175>>719689175>have it just do an attack that gives a chunk of damage and maybe a knockdown, and make it lose to throws. Maybe let people choose to cancel it into a backstep after deflecting.Welcome back Focus Attack
>>719689175Geralt and 2B are my favorite guests in the whole series.
>>719632241>final fantasy charactersSorry, bud, they're reserved for tekken
>>719689485Nope. Each gender has the same body model. It's just that the some parts are different sizes (i.e., one character's shoulders might be slightly larger, or their arms longer, etc.) If you don't really get what I mean, just go into the character creator and adjust the size of your custom character's body parts. Sometimes the changes are so small that you wouldn't even notice unless you put the characters side by side, e.g., the Sword Demon NPC that Yoshimitsu fights in his story mode not only has a slightly different color scheme from his Color 2 outfit but it also has a slightly larger head.
>played the HELL out of SC1, 2, and 4 with my bros back in the day, absolute peak local multiplayer fun>decided to buy SC6 to remember the good old times>something feels wrong, I can't get into it despite trying to enjoy all the single player content and the shitty online >realize the missing ingredient is playing in the same room with my friendsTry to enjoy the good times while you're in them, lads.
>>719690318Haohmaru is amazing as well. They are all extremely high quality and largely fit into Calibur tonally. I mean, I love Star Wars, but a Soul Calibur game wasn't a great fit. If it was a pure Star Wars game with Calibur's fighting engine I would be all over that.
>>719689485 different breast sizes and bodies scaled up and down based on the character (amy and talim share loli body)that's it
the best SC game is still soul edge/blade
>>719689485>SC females have different body types, don't they?Yes. See webm.
>>719692356Man, I love SoulCalibur...
>>719648525I've never thought much of Ivy until I saw that model. She was always a butterface to me. Now she's just stunning.
>>719691547While I agree fighting games are even more fun with friends, it's not just that. SC6 simply has less soulI went back to playing SC1&2 after playing SC6 and I enjoyed them more
>>719692718>SC6 simply has less soulNah, you just grew up with the earlier games.
>>719693165I didn't grow up with SC1. I played it for the first time after playing SC6 and I still thought it had more soul

>>719693213SC6 had a major sovl deficiency in stages, and the base OST wasn't great outside the main theme. But the characters' movesets were easily the most fun they'd ever been and the VN character stories were fun.
>>719694184The game had a lack of budget/dev time because Harada hates the IP and wanted it to fail.Even so the devs managed to pull a great game (fucked by overpowered DLC characters, tho)
SC has a nice collection of babesyou can also use customization on them and not only that you can create your own... it's even funnier when me and friends played (couch) against each other and place bets on who's waifu would win the waifu brawl...

>>719615105>>719699251>Why was he "evil" again?No one really knows what the fuck his intentions are right now, but him reveling in the events unfolding does make him look like an evil bastard. His English voice actor is an 11 out of 10.
>>719681398Camera tools and nude mods should be fine, but the cheat tables might not work with a cracked exe.So you might want to check keyshops for a copy of the game ($5~) or maybe the delux version($14~) if you need the DLCs.
>>719700810I don't like Azwel, I think he devalues SE as the big bad of the series, Algol was first and was bigger, but you could argue whether he was badder or not. Also, he steals his gimmick of wielding both swords.
>>719628518>>719607893Shame because the move that initiates the clash is a cool mechanic (parrying all moves (with each parry also building a lot of meter) before landing a big hit, but it's easy to sidestep and some moves also break it so it's balanced), it looks cool in animation too, if that was all that reversal edge was then it would have been a great universal mechanic, shame they slapped a half minute long rps cutscene on top of it, like what were they thinking, even casuals don't like this mechanic the moment they figure out that it's all just luck
>>719700447Good taste on their part, but I'd consider tanned chicks to be different to 'chocolate'
>>719700972Well I do. You might warm up to him one day. I know I have warmed up to characters I used to despise.
>>719606092It would be a shame if SC ended before all the modern online standards became a norm, like good netcode, rollback, crossplay, fast matchmaking. Really hope bamco will give this series at least one more chance so we will have an SC people can always go back to. Also one without the RPS mechanic
>>719701151she's on the chart, it checks out
>>719699450her colour 3 should've had darker skin like Talims colour 4
>>719632241none of thosewhat are you talking about, SC has been the least gay out of all the 3D fighters. There have been no side characters, no gacha characters and no faggy woke nigger crossovers. Kratos also was featured already.More likely to get Eve, Wukong monkey guy, Bayonetta, Doom Guy.Well maybe Clive, because that's the only Playstation associated character I can think of
