In some respects I think Street Fighter V looks better than 6 (Ryu looks much better in V) but in some cases 6 looks leaps better than V (Alex's character model for example)
>>735498323I liked that german rap song
>>735498323I loath "realistic" Street Fighter. so no coincidence that Street Fighter Alpha is my favorite look and SF4 is my favorite looking among 3DSFs.
>>735498323>Street Fighter Alpha is my favorite lookMine too.
This is the game I'm most excited to see with DLSS 5 after watching all those AI videos of fully real, not realistic, versions.
>>735498323I like 2D street fighter.
>>735498323Sprites
sF has looked like shit since 4. 2D or fuck off, Crapcom. Same goes for souless fucking 3D Marvel vs Capcom.
>>735498323i much prefer the 2d street fighter games and how they looked in sf4.now the sf models are a little dated but i always liked how colorful they looked. no the same happened to sf like it happened to mk where all the colors are fucking gone.
>>735498323What do Ryu's pits smell like after a match?
>>735498323SF5 looked like fucking clayfighter, a complete and utter failure of graphical design
>>735498323The semi-realistic characters in 6 look horrible.
>>735498323With the exception of a few botched characters, SFV looks SIGNIFICANTLY better than 6Characters in 6 look like absolute shit; the realistic textures do not mesh well with the Street Fighter designs at all, it looks genuinely fucking repulsive.
>>735498323I like the more cartoony and anime look of SF in the 90s but I don't think any 3D game has captured it very well. SF6 probably looks the best of those though it still has many weird looking issues, overall probably the better looking 3D game. Still a long way from the sprite based games though.
>>735498323'realistic' is just for lazy jeet frauds to drag and drop textures from an online library with. Older games had artists that were actually good and needed to learn how to draw and paint for the style and theme.
>>735505162RE engine was a fucking mistake, Capcom has gotten way too lazy with the face cap and body cap
>>735501887
>>735498323SF3 third strike. Hugo is the patrician choice. But yes, cartoony all the way
>>735506381>excited for Oro to be released in SFV after the letdown of Birdie being obese and not having his cool throwing animation and the botched animations for Alex>Gameplay reveal>I can only see the fucking asian unathletic mocap artist struggling to move instead of the Godlike hermit OroNever played the game again and SF6 only revealed to became worse.
>>735498323I like 2D Street Fighter. People bitch about how SF6 can look like shit, but every SF game in 3D looked like shit in a lot of ways. Capcom just can’t do it.
>>735506493how does it look worse than sf iv which came out in 2008
I like when street fighter had less black and trannies characters design
>>735508154Ken and Sakura look worse.Literally everyone else who is in both games looks miles better in V
>>735508383Everyone looks worse in 6
>>735501887its only really ken who looks like shit
4 looks amazing. 3 is cringe and full of "forced soul". Most of the character animations are way overdone
>>735508525YepCammy and Chun-li in particular make me so sad, how do you fuck up your main girls so bad?
I don't hate the characters in 6 but the colors and stages are kinda lame. 5 is all around ugly. 4 is the best looking 3D game.
>>735508383is this supposed to prove sf4 is better?
>>735508864No, it shows how SFV looks the best out of all 3 games.
>>735508383Yeah like I said IV is miles better
>>735498323Gay sex with Ryu.
>>735498323All SF games have been cartoony, from 2. to alpha, to 3. to 4 and 5. The realistic style of 6 doesn't fit with the rest of the series.
>>735498323I would like to like SF6 but 100+ GB install for a stupid arcade beat em up is way too much. Sorry but fuck you Capcom.
>>735508997>textures and tournament hypeSFIV>character designs and animations (with some notable exceptions, and the latter went to shit after that one guy apparently left)SFV>gameplay and contentSF6
>>735501809Imagine the smell
>>735508529Everybody bitched about Sakura's initial look when she first released so Capcom altered it in a later update/patch/whatever. So it's no it's just Ken, everybody got hit with the ugly stick... repeatedly.
>>735510879In what fucking way is the gameplay in 6 better than V or IV?
SF1 is shitSF2 sprites are charming but doesn't have any particular style (Final Fight beat em up arcade style aesthetics maybe?)SFA are nice to but too shounen anime for meSF4 is silly and is the 3D equivalent of SF2 having no particular styleSFV is the second best imo. It's a 3D equivalent of SF3s seinen manga style.SF6 is too "western" and feels kind of nigger-ishSo, to me, the winner is: SF3 (and CvS2) for it being 2D but still mature seinen style. It's "serious" but still creative and cartoonish anatomy like Hokuto no Ken for example
>>735510879>gameplay and content>you just press drive rush all day, almost no costumes and 2 less characters per year than sfvlolno
>>735511368IV was too rigid and reliant on 1F links, V had issues with the lack of unified system mechanics and stubby normals, 6 has none of those issues, so it's better.>>735511661I don't really care about costumes, and I'd rather have 1-2 good costumes per character and not have to buy more. Season passes being a worse deal is bad, but I was really only talking about the content of the base game; World Tour was great.
>>735511948>6 has none of those issuesAnd instead it has significantly worse shit.
>>735498323They need to make a cel shaded Street Fighter with the Alpha art style Make it a prequel again too
>>735510406BASED
>>735498323they both look shit, 4 looks better than both
>>735498323Cartoony/stylised. They've gone too far in the wrong direction.
>>735512054Yeah I'm sure you were a big 4 and 5 advocate back in the day lil bro, you definitely didn't shit on them when they were current either, you disingenuous faggot.
>>735514684I didn't, you stupid zoomer cunt."""Street Fighter""" 6 is LITERALLY the only Street Fighter game (other than the shitty movie game) that I have disliked in my life.
>>735514852Whatever you say grandpa. Dementia must've come early for you.
>>735515018I accept your concession.Now go and watch a YouTube essay about why SFIV or SFV were bad so you can at least parrot some new "arguments"
>>735515158You're a bit stupid aren't you?
>>735500895The SF3 subseries are the best looking sprite-based fighters ever and I won't accept any arguments to the contrary. God, imagine a Darkstalkers game from that team with those graphics.
>>735501809Fried garlic
>>735515902>best looking sprite-based fightersCounterpoint: Red Earth.
Aesthetically, SF peaked in the Alpha/ SFIII/MvC era(s), but IV >>>> V >> 6.But I'm guessing this is a "stealth" thread for fags to lust after Ryu.
>>735508383The harsh lighting doesn't help 6 at all.The models look worse, but that cold, hard light amplifies it.
>>735498323Ryu is the only character who managed to look good in SF6. Everyone else makes me think of picrel. >>735500895/thread
3 had the best style, I'm talking about character portraits and voice lines.Voices are aggressive, something one would expect from a fighting game.
>>735517031>Voices are aggressive, something one would expect from a fighting game.What an... odd and disingenuous sense of praise.
>>735508383I look at this and still think sf4 is the best. It's funny how fucked the lighting is on SF6 training stage. Lighting is crazy in SF6
>>735498323there's some kind of happy medium between 4 and 6 i hope they can hit, 6 veers into the uncanny valey at times and 4 looks kinda awkward and blocky 5 is just all around disgusting. They would never do it but we're at the point where you coul faithfully recreate 3rd strike portrait style using 3d models and some crazy fuckin shaders that be cool
SF hasn't looked good since part 4. SF5 is around the time when Capcom decided all of their games needs the most boring UX design. MH World, SF5, RE7, all generic, boring UI design like someone making a minimalistic WoW UI.
>>735498323everyone in sf6 just looks hideous meanwhile everyone in sf5 looks like they're made of rubber but at least the weird ass proportions look better
>>735508383is 6 just that washed out and bloom? Juri looks good in all 3
>>735498323I want them to go full anime with the next one
>>735519293yeah 6 is very washed out looking>>735519360that probably will never happen because capcom has been pushing more realistic visuals with all of their games
>>735519360Like >>735519523 said, Capcom is all about face scanning, body scanning and realism now. It looks absolutely retarded in Street Fighter but it's here to stay. If anything, 7 will be even more uncanny than 6
>>735519360fuck no, guilty gear is already there for you
>>735498323how the fuck is SF6 realistic? show me a single person as big and buffed and with same proportions as these characters.
Street Fighter 6 looks like an ass (in a bad way). I used to be a huge Street Fighter fan, but I quit and never really got into SF6 (played a few hours that's it), and the main reason is the butt-ugly artstyle and lackluster OST. I don't play games that have shit aesthetics, even if they are sequels to games I enjoyed. Street Fighter 5 and 6 back-to-back being shit games ruined Street Fighter for me permanently, I don't even call myself a fan anymore.
>>735498323Neither are realistic or "anime"; The last "Anime" Street Fighter was SF4. That's the peak anime style in 3D. Fuck off newfag.
>>735521361Retard.>>735521213Are you pretending to be retarded for fun or do you genuinely not understand what people mean when they say SF6 has a more realistic visual style?
Dogshit 6 Killed Fighting games. You are not a real fighting game player, you can't do combos, you can't play neutral, you don't have reads. You are retared zoomer twisted by trannies and their dogshit gameplay into thinking you can actually play fighting games.You are a fucking retard mongoloid that killed the genre. Also probably black.
>>735508383WEG cammy is fucking awful and I'm still amazed anyone likes her SF6 incarnation
>>735521437Actually netplay did
>>735521479>netplay@grok explain
>>735521430>Retard; No counter claims.Just proof you are a newfag and unable to make a contrary claim. There is nothing Anime about SF5:6. You think some chinkslop from India is Anime now? LOL. Anime means "Japanese Animation."
>>735521456Her retarded looking expression and ugly brow completely destroy the character, yes.
Alpha 3 was the peak in every way
>>735521545Absolutely nothing in the OP post you quoted says that SFV or 6 has an anime style you idiot. Why would you deserve a "counter claim" if you are talking about shit no one said?
>>735508383The only one that looks better in V is Chun Li.IV looks shit across the board.
>>735498323I loved SF4's aesthetic desu. 5 and 6 legit look embarrassingly shitty, although at least 6 is artistically consistent
>>735521729Really now?"""Cammy""" in 6 looks better than either of the other 2?
>>735498323God how much i wish they kept using pixelart
>>735521724We know what they meant by trying to slip it under "Cartoony." (They mean Anime.) Because otherwise they would have just used "Cartoon Style." You are the retard.
>>735498323Capcom needed to hire arcsys to do the Dragonball Fighterz style where it looks exactly like 2D animation while managing to be 3D. If that can’t be done, I thought SFV was actually a very good direction, they just hired some absolute dogshit modelers for some of the characters. 6 is so goddamn ugly (plus the bizarre zoomer pandering) that I refuse to play it.
>>735508383The ones on the far right look fucking terrible
>>735521851>UUHMMM ACKSHUALLY I am right because OP actually means what I need him to mean in order for my "argument" to work!!kekOK retard
>>735521892Its called high-poly 3D cell-shading with bloom HD effects. Cell-Shading used to be how anime graphics were done in PS2 days most of the time for games like Dragon Quest etc.
>>735521892>I thought SFV was actually a very good directionSFV is the closest Capcom has ever managed to capture Akiman in 3D models so yes, it's the best the series has ever looked in 3D>6 is so goddamn ugly (plus the bizarre zoomer pandering) that I refuse to play it.SameFortunately (?) the gameplay is just as ugly and zoomerfied as the aesthetic so I know I'm not really missing out on anything.
>>735521995>Backtracking now.Go to bed faggot.
>>735521851>THERE’S NOTHING ANIME ABOUT THE STYLE!>they didn’t say it was anime>…YEAH BUT THEY WERE THINKING ITAren’t you missing the point of this discussion anyway? It’s realism vs stylized/cartoon/anime/not realistic whatever you want to call it.
>>7354983235 had the best models.
>>735522129lol I know what you mean about being grateful that the gameplay sucks. If it turned out to be the best SF in that regard I might be forced to tolerate its disgusting character design.
>>735498323I prefer SFV's more stylized artstyle but SFV was lacking in polish, both compared to 4 and 6
>>735522085The arcsys method is pretty much like what you described but they also exert a lot of control over the shading, to the point that they’re doing frame by frame edits. The shader engine just by itself is too ambiguous. Interestingly enough the labor intensive nature of the process resembles how painstakingly crafted pixel art was.
>>735522490I was willing to at least give it a shot at some point because I like Mai and SOMEHOW she doesn't look absolutely disgusting (even if she doesn't actually look like Mai) but then Capcom made it abundantly clear that all the slime shit is working as intended, it will never get truly better, AND they also plan to pozz all their games with Enigma Protector when they are too cheap to keep paying for Denuvo. Now I am not only not getting SF6, I am not doing business with them at all.
>>735521437>>735514852>>735511661>>735511368Found the diamond players.Sf6 is the epitome of fighting games. The system mechanics create a canvas to paint your own stylized strategies, carefully navigating a complex chess board of risk reward. Everything you do is a gamble since everything has answer. It's the most balanced fighting game to date - if you're still unironically hung up on week 1 "dur slime rush memes" I have news for you - you found the skill floor of the game and didn't even make it up the first step. Watch pro players emulate their careful play and maybe you too will find the 1200 master bracket. Or don't, and keep playing your jank imbalanced old games where players do the same shit over and over, because at this point, with SF6 breaking it's player peak of all time years after launch, your opinions clearly don't matter.
>>735522991>Now I am not only not getting SF6, I am not doing business with them at all.no one cares
>>735523213Cared enough to reply :)
>>735522779Not even the same thing. You are just basically shifting the light points for each frame to get the effect you want. 3D animation is for a profession million times less effort than pixel art. That's the main reason animated movies switched to 3D not because it was newer and better quality but because it was easier and cheaper.
>>735523105Found the propaganda bot working for Capcom. LMAO.>here's the corporate speech you have to push to cancel any naysaying.Eww. Only thing you faggots are painting on the screen are cumstains and slimeslop. The game is not good.
>>735523789I was about to reply to it but I realized there's no fucking way that's a genuine post kekAI-generated drivel
>>735498323Leaning too heavily into realism wasn't a good thing imo. I really like this games concept art and wish the game looked closer in style to it
>>735523789>>735523923stick with your unc games that hinge on players not knowing how to play the game at a high level for you to have fun (we all know you're the same people that hated playing against good chuns in 3s, good elenas and eryus in sfiv, and good karins in sfv).i'll be over here having fun with the rest of the world :)
>>735508383the SFIV models were so pretty and the skin had so much warmth. what's the point of better graphics if it makes the girls less cute?
>>735498323I liked the 2d games looks.
>>735498323sf5 looked better. people are stupid and don't understand that being more detailed doesn't equal being more aesthetically pleasing
>>735524745B-B-But le Banana Ken! And Alex!!! and muh clay!!
>>735521892Retard take only said by people who dont play fighters Those games only look good during cinematics
>>735524283
>>735525057Literally every single 3D game made by ArcSys looks SIGNIFICANTLY better than the vomit inducing shit that is SF6
peak 2d was alpha and peak 3d was 5. iii had more detailed/expensive spritework but the art in alpha was much better, similar to how 6 is more detailed than 5 but 6 still looks much worsei have no faith in sf7, both in terms of art and gameplay
>>7354983235 looks great when the did the models in house. The problem is half the roster is outsourced and looks terrible sans Ken who I am unsure if in-house did him they fucked up.
>>735500895this
>>735498323The EX and its follow ups are the only decent looking 3D street fighter games. 4 and 5 make every character look cobbled together from clay while 6 goes with trying to make cartoony stylized characters work with realistic lighting and details when that never shit never looks good. Even if I can appreciate the details on Cammy's ass, 6 just looks like Jump Force to me.
>>735512283where's this barefoot version come from?
>>735508383It's the more realistic hair that annoys me on 6. It clashes against their attempt at trying to blend real materials with exaggerated human anatomy.
>>735498323>>735498507Alpha had S-tier for style, yeah. Not just in the generic look, but in the designs themselves, too. 5-6 the base character design's been a little fucked.Nobody's going back to 2-d, but it'd be nice if they went full anime-cel like DBZF with an Alpha-style for a new one. But also stay away from that shit SNK's doing - someone needs to tell the saudis that the super-sharp outline/contrast shit looks like ass. Or however the fuck you say that in harambijimabajom.
SF4 is so fucking uglySF5 is a little better but not by muchSF6 looks cool.
SF6 is so fucking uglySF5 is a little better but not by muchSF4 looks cool.
>>735498323I like pixel drawn SF.
>>735498323Neither, I like sprites.
>>735521536Netplay let the worst of the worst socially inepts play the game and make the tournament environment worse
>>735524745sf6's attempt at "realistic" models is awesome, it has its own style, unlike shitty kombat and tekken. everything else is bad, tho'. stages aren't visually pleasing, almost everything from wt is terrible, and having npc's from this damn mode cheering in the background is even worse.... yet it's still way better than sf5.
>>735527075That and the INCREDIBLY detailed skin make it truly repulsive to look at.Who the FUCK thought we wanted to see skin pores, greasy skin, makeup, bloodshot eyes and a bunch of other shit up close and in detail? For characters that are basically anime character at their core?
>>735508383The art direction for V was unbelievably crisp. Colors, lighting, geometry, etc (even cammy's stance was polished and less awkward). It managed to integrate detail without losing the cartoonish side. The only thing I can see in this comparison that it is outdone by is Cammy's face in sf4. 6 on the other hand is a crime against humanity.
>>735498323SF6 looks amazing except for Terry.Why the fuck is he the only character who ugly weird?
>>735531193>Why the fuck is he the only character who ugly weird?I fucking wish he was the only character who was ugly and weird.Don't get me wrong, he is definitely fucking ugly, probably top 3, but the absolute majority of characters look like shit too.
Baby making sex with Akira
The only good thing in SF6 graphics is classic Cammy that got me horny everytime i play
>>735531732They tried to take it from you, anon.
>>735531930They can say stuff but they can't resist money
>>735498323So, whose dick do I need to suck in order to get the Season pass 3?
I think costumes 3 and 4 saved a lot of characters. Manon and Marisa especially. Many of the levels look phenomenal, especially Blanka's. I like 6 more now.
