Guest characters are the selling point I guess
raped genre, special guestslop sellout edition
Every single guest character put in a fighting game this decade (Except Ronaldo and that DJ because that's just retarded) are cool and a good addition to whatever they got added. People sperging out about it are at least 90% performative as fuck.
imagine if SF6 got someone cool like Jotaro Kujo with heritage for the future mechanicsbut it's modern capcom so it's fucking garbage as is SF6
Street Fighter 6 is one of the worst fighting games I've ever played.
>>740436737This makes me think, will Tokon have guests? You might think they don't need it already being a crossover game, but nowadays everything has. They could get a MHA character since IIRC they have the MHA artist working on it, right?
>some hoe from a JRPG only millenials and boomers care about over Sakura and MakotoI'M SICK OF GUEST CHARACTERS AHHHHHHH
>>740436737are they gaming icons or just unc's waifus
>>740436737>we want the performative tiktok audience
I'M TIRED OF GUEST CHARACTERSI'M TIRED BOSS
Who will be the Guest characters in Virtua Fighter?
>>740437792If they do get a guest that seems the most likely, logical choice, yes.I would like Ochaco. Manga proportions Ochaco to be specific
>>740437956SF6 has more guests than Alpha characters and SF3 characters combined
>>740437792Marvel with shonen jump? Does it happened before?
>>740437995Needs more film grain
play mbaacc you faggots
>>740437882boththey just don't make these all time great female characters anymore. I guess 2b was the last one.
>>740437675retard
>>740437792The artist is Yuki Kato, Tokon looks nothing like MHA
>>740438274I don't like anime fighting games and I never will.
>>740437816>Sakura and Makoto>not characters only millennials and boomers care about
>>740437882They need Lara Croft now to both promote the new game and to almost complete the list of boomer big tit waifus. To actually complete it they need Ivy from Soul Calibur
>>740437675kys
>>740438442capcom has done official popularity polls twice this decade and they were #1 and #2 both times

>>740438331Explain to me in detail why guest characters who are not just literal real life people like the ones I mentioned are "le bad"
>>740438558it's gay and for browns retards
>>740438987Like I said, performative as fuck.
>>740438274I hate nu TM, i don't care if Len is back
>>740438558because of this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WePNs-G7puA
>>740438558What makes fictional characters good but real life people bad?
>>740438556basedfuck tekken
>>740436737>Endless guest character slop>But no one wants to be daring enough to make a straight crossover game that borders on fanfiction
>>740438558
virtua fighter's biggest problem is that the characters are lame as fuck and 6 is not solving thatpai's redesign and the new black dude look alright. that main character is not good.
>>740439515>"virtua fighter's biggest problem is that the characters are lame as fuck">blocks your path
>>740436737I hate all guest characters
>>740439515honestly this. it's just DOA without the over the top sexy girls.
>>740437792The Bat is coming
>>740439476Blazblue Crosstag already exists
>>740439168I said AACC not Lumina. Now start playing it.
>>740439515Auntie Pai looks crazy hot
>>740438274act cadenza was the first fighting game I tried to learnperhaps it did start me off on the road towards liking anime games, but outside of music and a couple cute girls I don't really find anything interesting in melty
>>740439350The only valid complaint I've heard about guest characters is that they clash with the game/setting they were put into. This is very true for Ronaldo and Ganacci, but not really true for things like Mai and Terry in Dix, Lucy in Strive, Kenshiro in CotW and so on.
>>740439995>Batman announced to tokon>Sales skyrocket because is The Motherfucking BATMAN.
>>740440415you don't like air footsies?
just started playing SF6wtf is up with throws in this game? if I press buttons I get thrown, sometimes I cross them up and get thrown before my feet even touch the groundI figured I can just throw and dash forward and press throw and it just worksI have no idea how to deal with it on the receiving end but it seems no one does that I playedHow the fuck do I not get thrown in this game?
>>740441658>How the fuck do I not get thrown in this game?If you figure this out, you'll win Evo.
>>740441658throws are 5 frame startup universal, stuff it with your 4 frame move or go for a throw tech
>>740436737>walks forward
>>740437675Agree. They're fun in a dumb way and that's what video games are all about.>>740438274Game's too old, I'm waiting for Twi-Lumina to play that chick in a granny skirt :)
>>740441713this have been my games ngl, I also picked Mai>>740441723I mean on wake up, no way you can mash it out, I've triedthese wake up timing are demented, why are they just perfectly lined up with something as simple as a dash forward
>>740438274Did they ever make concerto work on linux
>>740441451It's fun but ACPR already covers that for me
>>740442001crouch jab beats throws
>>740436737Kenshiro actually inspired practically all fighting games indirectly or directly so I can accept him being a guest character.
>>740441658You have to throw tech. It's not reactive, it's predictive. It's not like Tekken or something. Once you see the throw, it's too late.SF6 is a throw loop game, most characters get enough advantage off a throw to get a true 50/50 and force you to guess what they're gonna do. Getting thrown is the safer option because guessing wrong on a strike means you're gonna take a LOT of damage. But like I said, the throws loop into each other so it's endless guessing until you're right.
>>740437675Some of them are alright like Terry in sf6 and Ken in cotw but Tifa is a bit much and Ronaldo is just ridiculous. The bigger issue is losing real characters because the slots were used for guests.
>>740436737If it wasnt for memes nobody would give a shit about yujiro. I didnt even know who he was until Tekkenfags huffed major copium about him gassing him up. What a cucked franchise
>>740442143please tell me how then because I'm 99% sure it doesn't, unless there's been some fucky lag or something in the matches I've played
>>740442174>The bigger issue is losing real characters because the slots were used for guests.This is aggravated because the current big 3 games want to standardize 4 characters per season pass, and their players just... take it, and pay for it. Having 1 character out of 6 being a guest is not too bad in terms of "taking spots" Having 1 out of 4 is a different story
>>740442242you are unironically not mashing fast enough, most crouch jabs are 4 frame moves and they specifically beat throws. you can always neutral jump on wakeup too
>>740442342I honestly thought the last sf6 pass was a fake when I saw it cuz it has literally zero sf characters
can we please get out of this guest character era
>>740438274I am, I've been learning some WLen. I like doing her 2B whiff 5A 2B combos. I don't know how to get the right height for her 2B 5[C] dash 5A 5C route.
>>740442143>>740442242>>740442415Wakeup jab does not beat throw in SF6. Your options are tech, throw invincible DP or neutral jump.
>>740442020no but you can just use caster>>740442062I wouldn't consider GG to be an airfootsies game. You have air options but it's not quite game defining like in melty or arcana heart.
>>740442143>>740442242They only beat throws if they hit at the same frame. A meaty throw will not be beaten by a jab I'm pretty sure.
>>740442164I wonder how he's going to react to being in a pre-apocalypse world with functioning toilets.
>>740442001>why are they just perfectly lined up with something as simple as a dash forwardBecause the game is designed to have easy meatiesAlso because there's basically no throw protection in this gameDon't ever do >>740442143, jab only beats throws in +1 situations
>>740442534? kenshiro was around for the world before it went to shit.
Just got destroyed by Anji in +R, holy shit. Bad players never play that guy.
>>740442460Do I need to post my ip and everything for it? I love Len but I really can’t deal with a game that actually requires discord and I dunno how often people are here to play it. I wish the Steam version would get rollback.
>>740442459oh my bad, sorry for the bad advice anon kek
>>740442143convinced all throw loop defenders just do not know how this game works
>>740442642nah he's just extremely easy, bad players love him because he makes them intermediate players at the same skill level they'd still be noobs on almost anyone else
>>740442671who's defending throw loops here, me? i just gave out bad information because i thought it was true, nothing else. i apologize. you can drive reversal wakeup throws right?
it's been a rough couple of years as someone who likes 2D fighters but does not like SF6 at allI'm too bad at games to play dead games without a population. nobody wants to play against a shitter
>>740442643>Do I need to post my ipyeah but so what?>dunno how often people are here to play itthere are actually quite a few anons, main issue is that most are lazy bitches and refuse to host on their own volition.
>>740437675guest characters are stupidif you can't get me to care about your games' own characters i will not play the game, no matter what glup shitto makes it in as a guest.
>>740439657Wolf was held back by his VA but he was always cool!
>>740438203thats jpeg artifacting not film grain you retard
Seriously though, why the spic music in the Virtua Fighter trailer? There's like 0 connection there.
>>740442816same, I'm also a shitter, if you want to play vsav I'll play you! I've been having a lot of fun with it, even as a shitter, the game is very fun to just hop in and do gatling combo
>>740442534Baiken was a guest character in SamSho 2019, living in a pre-devastated Japan, and she was over the moon. I imagine it'd be much of the same.
>>740442970South American people do love fighting a lot.
>>740442816>nobody wants to play against a shitterBBCFskullgirls+runder nightyou can find newbies in these games if you can stomach asking for games on discord, or else you are going to be in the perpetual cycle of not having a fighting game you like player ever because things are not gonna get better anytime soon
>>740442970Because the trailer was about the latino character. When they do the trailers for the rest will get different music, black guy music, white girl music, business lesbian music
can someone autistic make a list of all the guest characters in every fighting game since 2008
I think Virtua Fighter is about to replace Tekken bro. There is way too much money put into VFC. I already see a fuckton of Tekken players even the KR players being excited as fuck about VF. Holy shit VF is about to get it's first generation of 4chan haters
thinking about getting into 6 again is akuma top tier
The scene where Cielo shadow boxes with the murals of the VF OGs has more heart and sovl in it than anything in the past 20 years of Tekken
>>740443181There were VF haters since day 1 on 4chan. Even today on /vr/ you can find Soul Calibur 2 fags screeching about VF4Evo being "actually shit"
>>740442970Because Cielo is the new hero of Virtua Fighter, the Luke to Akira's Ryu, and Cielo is Paraguayan-American, so he gets Latin rap.
>>740443217akuma is always good, tiers don't matter in this game unless you're high master. akuma is a lot of fun in this
>>740443181tekken players have always been insecure about liking a ripoff. nu-tekken players however will be happy to abandon a sinking ship, as long as they are "winning".
>>740443217hes ok, terrys probably better
>>740443217Akuma is a shoto which makes him high tier at worst
>>740443229That one scene is so good it makes dudes who never fucking heard of Virtua fighter feel like they grew up with the game their whole life.
>>740443217best way to not get grab-looped is to fireball spam, yes.
>>740443030>skullgirlsmy man everyone who still plays that will annihilate a shitter with tech never before seen by anyone but the 10 or so players still playing that game
>>740443285Akira is 58 if the game takes in the current year. He probably will be the mentor character for Cielo.
>>740443229Apart from Pai's reveal, the mural shadowbox sequence was the absolute peak of Cielo's intro - honoring the legends of the past while moving forward.
>>740443181It feels so bizarre, I'm not used to Sega actually treating their other franchises like this. I'm used to them letting them crash and burn like Valkyria Chronicles.
>>740436737I blame Mortal Kombat
>>740443520>Rumor mill swirling that Phantasy Star Online 3 is in the works
>>740443520VF didn't have real new game since 2005. All we've been getting was updates to VF5. This big push comes from Sega cancelling a new GAAS IP that they wanted to invest $600 million into. The money went into a bunch of projects like new Crazy Taxi and VF which seems to be the biggest investment out of the bunch. If they flop it will be a return to the GAAS project.
>>740443305Tekken was always a bad ripoff and its formular got fixed by Soul Calibur. Literally a fossil that should have been put to rest ages ago.
>>740443520>sega and capcom have both announced big projects to revitalize their dormant series with big titlesgaming might be kino again. i hope we get a new final fight
>>740443287Even in 3rd strike?
>>740443779a new final fight has been leaked for years, idk when it'll finally be announced
>>740443812he's good in that game just outclassed by ken so you don't pick him
>see thread>launch the 30th anniversary soundtrack from VF2Yep time to discuss some VF.
>>740443229>t-thats... t-thats.... that's AKIRA>who the fuck is Akira?
>>740442534It would basically be just like Souten no Ken but in a modern city instead of 1930s Shanghai.
>>740443812hes A+ in that game, if the 3 broken characters didn't exist he would dominate
>>740443678You fell for retarded clickbait and you would hate it just as much as any other game nor released in your teenage years.
>>740443341Seeing a new game be genuinely appreciative and show love towards its origins is radical in an era where it's all about constantly keeping up with trends and escalating everything endlessly.
>>740443958sf6 world tour mode is basically a massive love letter to the entire series. i'm glad studios are realizing you can have a new protag but you don't have to belittle the old ones
>>740443902>Souten no KenWas surprisingly KINO for a hokutou prequel.
>>740443929Based first viewer
>>740436737>>740443229>>740443341>>740443475
>>740436737I started playing SF6 recently. Slowly going up the rankings. One thing I'm still very weak at is knowing when it is my turn. Some characters like Kimberly, Jaime and even Akuma just seem to string attacks endlessly. Another thing I'm not a huge fan of is the apparent discrepancy between the "force" of some attacks and how safe they are. When I see a character do an attack with a huge windup and hitstun, I always assume I can punish it, but more often than not they get in a jab faster than I can, or they get pushed back away. M. Bison and Sagat seem to be the main culprits.Fun game for now, though drive rushing turning every little hit into a huge HP loss is grating.
>>740444064>a massive love lettershould've missed it between ken losing his wife, money and reputation and the entire world trying to gaslight me into thinking luke was always the top dog of the world.
>potentially old Jackie I-I'm n-not ready bros....
>>740443229It's fucking peak. It's incredible how you much soul it oozes.Also plays perfect into the new protagonist serving as new to the series players perspective to the history. He looks at it with respect and wants to reach their heights.
>>740444193>Fun game for now, though drive rushing turning every little hit into a huge HP loss is grating.i'm hoping this gets scaled down eventually, such an easy change too.
>>740444126It's very different (and Kasumi's winrate is bonkers) but I did enjoy it too. Honestly, Kasumi would be as cool if not cooler than Kenshiro proper as a guest in some of these games. Especially with how much bullshit his manga adds to Hokuto Shinken as a martial art.
>>740443404skullgirls has 113 people playing right now, thats about the same as every other 2d discord fighter in existence, you can join the matchmaking discord and ping newbies right now to play if you really wanted to. i'm giving you recommendations based on games that i personally play regularly, it's either that or you keep wallowing on the genre forever.
>>740444223For me I felt most shat on when Birdie came back for SF5 but he was a fat slob because Ono is a fucking gay bara freak who loves fat hairy grotesque dudes.
>>740443890Akira is that one Bajiquan practitioner from that 3D fighting game
>>740444146Cielo is legendarily based.
>>740444146This is all in his mind, which means onlookers would just think this guy is retarded or schizo
>>740444146
>>740444223luke is barely around after the opening tutorial though. the whole world is filled with quests and dialogue that cover the entire series. theres a gamewide questline where you deal with retsu from sf1 and another with carlos miyamoto. you face sheng long in world tour and he's the hardest opponent in the game. its based
>>740444284It won't. People like you keep buying it, no one playing is leaving, messing with a formula that works is too risky when it doesn't lead to more sales. They won't change.
>>740443761To be fair, Namco poched someone from the VF1 Team to help create Tekken(Namco vs. Sega Arcade Rivalry) & DOA1 was made on Sega arcade hardware. Dead or Alive & Tekken are VF's bastard children.
>>740443181>DNF Duel>KOFXV>Lumina>CotW (pre-shitty guest character duo)Literally every fighting game this board hypes up as "X game killer" dies on the spot.
>>740444223Ken falling for a crypto scam while JP uses Ken's money to bomb not-Nepal would have been a fun and interesting story shame we had to follow whatever the fuck the Avatar was doing while that was relegated to a comic nobody read
>>740444514>and he's the hardest opponent in the gameHe's a joke character who is high level but his AI basically just throws fireballs. He's almost like Dan in unseriousness.
>>740444146same vibes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BbaaI5xf4y8
>>7404431813d fighters are not really popular outside of tekken, and tekken players ONLY play tekken so idk, that sub genre is doomed because the players are genuinely subhuman
>>740444369Best guest character ever. Project Justice is fun as hell, it's a shame CFC2 was basically dead on arrival.
>>740444331>Kasumi's winrate is bonkersExpected nothing less from a esteemed Hokutou successor.
>>740444284The slime shit is working EXACTLY as intended, and it's the main reason casuals flock to this game in droves. It is literally never ever getting better.
Surely Soul Caliber will get a worthy revival next, right guys...?
>>740444786>the main reason casuals flock to this gameno its not, the reason is the graphics and the netcode
>>740444146>The little chuckle he does to himself and the extra second of appreciation when it's Akira's turnsoul overload. like seeing an old friend
>>740444831namco will probably pull out of fighters, and honestly thats a good thing
>>740444514>you face sheng long in world tour>has a mohawkyeah nah
>>740444786Alright fine keep the jumpscare mechanics can we at least get rid of the throw loops
>>740444831Witcher 3 is getting a new DLC. Anything can happen now. I expect SC7 with a Criri DLC.
>>740444786most casuals do not know how to do drive rush intentionally
>>740444064I enjoyed the throwbacks it had, especially as a Breath of Fire fan. It was a neat little RPG experience. The main meat was wasted potential though. Nothing happened in the main story, no new threads were introduced, nothing moved forward, especially now that Ingrid retconned everything to where literally nothing happens. The start of the story and the ending are now the exact same. Relegating all the fighters to their own little corner and never having them enter the main story also sucked (aside from small snippets with Cammy, Juri and JP). It's actually impressive that we have three newcomers and 2 of them never even appeared in World Tour while Bosch is basically a non-character despite being your "rival".
>>740444831I remember Harada saying that Bamco people who could make Soul Calibur or were interested in the franchise were all promoted or moved to positions where they can't make another one. Even though it's a series that sells a lot even at its worst.
>>740444906People were cheering for throw loops at CapCup. Daigo has defended their existence on stream.
>>740444858Really nowYou're telling me if 6 played exactly like either SFIV or SFV but kept the (disgusting) visual style and admittedly much better netcode than its predecessors, it would be exactly as successful as it is now.
>>740443229>>740443341>>740443475>>740444240Trying too hard, and i couldn't give two shits about tekken or any other fighting games you faux rage baiting tards percieve as being shit while you're all based facing watching CHINGER CHANGER dood glaze the ever living shit out of yet another game he's being paid to shill on his channel.
>>740445028yes, i am saying that. casuals love street fighter, 4 was one of the biggest casual games of all time on release if you were around for that. 5 suffered from a terrible launch and bad word of mouth and terrible netcode
feel like shit i just need my nigga rog back
>>740445040>>>740443229 (You)>>>740443341 (You)>>>740443475 (You)>>>740444240 (You)Thanks bro
>>740444831I am as big a fan of the series from Soul Edge to Soul Calibur 3 as you can find and honestly at this point I rather get a Penis Vacation spinoff than another plot stalling meter spam turd with bad online, the same models and faces since SC4 still and more retarded mechanics on top that ruin the original RPS system that just worked.
>>740444940Good we really need some fresh blood in the series. We should return to a more adventure focused era of Edge and the first Calibur.
>>740445132I don't understand Balrog fans. Is it the charge moveset? The long normals? I always hated the weapon break mechanic it seems intentionally meant to keep him low tier
>>740444223I hate that this is never resolved. I thought the player teaming with Luke, and Ken and others to take out JP and clear Ken's name was gonna be like the main fucking story. No you just fucking dick around and do nothing until Ingrid resets everything. Fucking waste.
>>740445292i am talking about boxer because he is braindead to play
>>740445292lol, he's talking about boxer. but vega is sick too, mostly based on design. he has old anime swag
>>740444343Plus r has less than that usually and still ain’t a discord fighter
>>740445123Alright then.Personally I find the notion that SF6 being significantly casualized and simplifying both controls and approach to neutral NOT being a big part of its success silly as shit but sure.
>>740444767Well, genuinely, I don't think he loses once in the entire manga. The most he does is get injured or interrupted. I think his final fight with Kenshin is the only time he's knocked down, but Erika helps him up again.
I'm really looking forward to seeing how Kage will look in VF6. Wonder if Takenobu Mitsuyoshi will still be voicing him in the new era. NAMU!
>>740445416yeah i know, i just had /v/aggots that complain and complain and complain about muh fighting games when there are these games with dedicated communities that have true love for the game they play in their heart and just decide to not contribute at all
>>740444369God I've never touched Rival Schools but she was so fucking fun in SF5
>>740445492>hadhate*
I dread to think about what kind of twink death befell Lion in VF6
>>740444831>>740444940Found it. Warning: longhttps://x.com/Harada_TEKKEN/status/1805489285875089826
>>740445453were you not around in 09? sf4 was a staple of dorm rooms back then
>>740443929Guys like him can't seem to understand that hating on the game in every video doesn't bring in more money. More money means increased chances of getting nice things like Tifa. Less money means more gay rapists. He did it to himself.
>>740445567I've been playing Street Fighter since II, I am well aware that SFIV was popular and that Street Fighter as a whole IS popular with casuals, I'm just saying that SF6 being as retardedly successful as it is right now is obviously boosted by Capcom making it literally more accessible than ever, with 1 button supers even if that's what you want.
>>740445568Phidx hating on the game? That's the massive shill who is constantly optimistic about the next patch moving in the right direction if only we wait two more weeks. It's just that even he can't be positive all the time with the way the game is.
>>740445562Grown-up Lion won't sound like a dweeb any more, for better or for worse.
>>740445712i think its more that they leaned hard into the social aspects of modern online culture with stuff like the battlehub and having vtubers stream it. japanese sf culture is completely alien to the west though, they have tons of local grassroots events everywhere and encourage casuals to learn the game and are friendly to newbies. the western fgc is bitter and spiteful and lashes out at everyone, theres no sense of community here which makes it so fighting games just can't get as big here.
Not sure if it counts, but this just got announced. They say they'll overhaul the gameplay a bit, but I doubt it'll up to proper fightan standards. There are mods like Save The Earth Melee that kinda do that for other versions of the game tho
IF YOU DONT LIKE OUR SEASON THAT JUST MEANS YOU WANT MORE SF2 SHIT. JUST IGNORE THAT WE LITERALLY HAVE MORE GUESTSLOP THAN WE DO MOST OTHER GAMES
>>740446054also just ignore we have most of the sf2 cast in the game already
>>740444596Dead or Alive is, in a way, VF's direct child, since DoA1 was built on the bones of VF2.
>>740446054>that barren wasteland for alpha and 3wtf? Also wow sf4 newcomers were fucking ass all around.
Been getting into CotW again last few days, but yesterday and today I can barely find games. Don't know if it's the timing or if there's not enough active people at >10k rank points
>>740446054It's so fucking funny how Remy would an absolute fucking menace in every single other fighting game but because turd strike lacks the very basic fundamentals of the genre and any fireball is just a free parry for meter he just is forgettable bad.
>>740445891>i think its more that they leaned hard into the social aspects of modern online cultureOh yeah, that definitely helped them a lot as well. As much as people here seethe at VTubers I know they are extremely popular and it was a very smart move from Capcom.
>>740442642Ground viper makes a sizable amount of Anji players lose their mind
>>740446054this is genuinely so fucking disgusting i hate capcom so much
>>740446397It's not like I particularly like him but I really want to see him in a new game just to watch it play out.
Tokon bros how good are we. Green Goblin and Carnage was phenomenal. Can Ghost Rider team top it?
>>740446054More guest characters than Alpha, SF3, or SF4 characters even, absolutely sickening
>>740436737>yourPosting in legendary thread
>>740446014What guest fighter can we put in a Godzilla game?
>>740445562>>740445821
>>740446560Technically SF5 too since Luke was a SF6 character that got backported when they had to delay 6 and add more content to 5.
>>740446054Why Do they hate Makoto so much? She has skipped 2 games in a row now despite how outragously popular she is with players and gooners alike.She literally the meme tomboy template for fucks sake.
>>740446771Not going to lie, I thought this was Lee from Tekken for a second lol.
>>740446880In a game where everyone not named Zangief has a fast as fuck dash that they CAN activate from a normal, and everyone is also a bona fide grappler, what can Makoto even do to compete?
>>740436737More like >blocks my moneyI am not playing crossover guest character slop in the year 2026, fuck off.
>>740446714Gamera, Ultraman, King Kong, Some other mecha anime of appropriate size, Mazinger, Evangelion
>>740447031what, you dont like playing a character that will never return?
>>740447009Sweaty tomboy abs.
>>740444146Got damn bros I might cry. I never thought I would such a high quality Virtua Fighter after VF4. I can't believe they are actually putting this much money into VF of all things.
>>740447078Turns out if I buy Tekken or Street Fighter what I really want is Tekken or Street Fighter characters.
>>740447031>crossovers are... le bad!!Very original opinion Anon, I'm sure it's well thought out and not parroted at all.
Give it to me straight: is Eileen cooked in VF6?
Kill yourself loser you don't get a (You) for bait that shitty
>>740443181VF is literally everything what Tekkenfags hate about 7 & 8 minus the heat meter mechanics in 8
>>740446880>a "real tomboy">as depicted by the same people who described the "4chan tomboy"
I don't mind Bosch being a character, it was obviously going to happen, but if you're going to go with him they should have committed to it by making him the main character of World Tour and a character in the base roster, or the first season of DLC at the latest. That would have been a great way to establish a new roster member. Instead he shows up, eats a pizza, and dies and it makes him look like a joke
>>740436737You have the wrong Tifa up there. The Tifa in SF6 is the lame Remake Tifa.
>>740436737I realize I deserve it for playing a Capcom game but come ooooooon, why does SF6 have to get the least interested guest star of the three?
>>740447417whens a jojo character
>>740446714Bowser should be in one
>>740447204probably not. was she even popular?
>>740447078Looking at SF6 it seems like SF original characters are the ones who will never return lmao. Hope you're not a Fei-Long or Makoto fan
>>740447335>by making him the main character of World TourThey literally did that with Ingrid retconning everything. You give up your life to save him and he takes over what you did so they can use parts of world tour in the future and just say Bosch did it. That's why is alive and wins the tournament and has never met you before. He doesn't go through his psycho power arc he goes through a protagonist arc. His moveset will be based mostly on Luke because he never got his ass beat and quit Luke's gym. John Streets is a ghost forgotten by time.
>Pai Chan is a huge movie star in the VF world>who's Pai Chan!?It hurts.
>>740447078By that logic I would never ever play newcomers since half of them don't stick around, or like >>740447665 mentioned, I wouldn't even play a bunch of the classic characters kekIf a character is in a game and he or she is fun to play in that game, you just fucking play them. That is literally all that matters.
>>740447852Clearly her career has suffered in recent decades, a long string of flops sent her back to working in the kitchen
>>740447852There has to be a reason Pai is undercover as "Madam Sue," the owner of a rinky-dink Chinese restaurant in some SEA hovel.
>>740447989She's from a super rich family. Unless her father left her nothing as a joke she shouldn't need to ever work.
>>740447852time passes, people forget actorsdo you think any zoomer knows who Jack Nicholson is?
>>740447852You think a fat 20 year old would know Barbara Streisand today?
>>740437792Wasn't spawn hinted by the guy who created him?
>>740448081J6 has been sabotaging Pai's movie shoots for years, likely because they know she's working against them.
>>740447717>he takes over what you did so they can use parts of world tour in the future and just say Bosch did itI'm saying they should have just skipped the avatar stuff and done this from the beginning instead of doing it in a DLC cutscene most people won't see
>>740447645not him but she is my wife.
>>740448123He was?I haven't read a Spawn comic in decades but I unironically think his design hold up very well, and it's more or less perfect for a fighting game.
If Jeffry dosen't return does that mean the Devil Shark won!?
>>740446880tomboy means "looks like a boy". Has nothing to do with whatever retardation tomboy fags like.
>>740448309I genuinely think Jeffry is too popular to get cut from VF6. Not only is he a member of the OG 8, but also he's a pet character of the devs and has cameos all over the place. Remember that the single-player campaign is from the perspective of the four newcomers, so they're the ones playable. Jeffry is confirmed offering a sidequest chain, so he's at least present.
>Multiple threads Virtua Fighter is the main conversationYou fucking tsundere bitches... you're all hype for a VF game hahaAHAHAHAHAHA! Tifa is literally gone from your memory
We don't know how the new VF will play but as a series:>Only real defense is active defense>Constant actual RPS/guessing bullshit in its throw system that gets revamped every game because even the devs can't get it to work>3D movement is completely arbitrary "this move has to be stepped to this side" like and doesn't work outside of thatHow is this the series for Tekkenfugees? It's like they rolled up all their complaints and put in a series with shorter combos.
>>740446054very nice anon. BUTI'LL GO T.HAWK>applausesFEI LONG>more applausesBALROG>some whores faint in the publicAND VEGA>whole place collapses
Thoughts on Es?
>>740448774i love her fat tits, shes also my pocket pick when i don't feel like sweating with rachel so she's pretty cool for that too. i mostly just like her fat tits tho
>>740448661Retard did you not watch the preview?
>>740448661Don't forget that, at least in VF5REVO, all throws track sidesteps, i.e. are homing. Tekken players would have to get real comfortable with the idea that throws are a genuine threat in VF and core to the gameplay cycle.
>>740448847I also play Es and Rachel, and trying Relius lately
>>740448774Immediate breeding
>>740448872are you literally fucking me i also play relius too
>>740448774Fun to bait with, never played.
>>740448415>the real world definition of tomboy is not the same as the anime archetypeNo fucking WAYNext you're going to tell me that most Karate styles in fighting games are not actually proper Karate.
>>740448570>'s a pet character of the devs I was 100% convinced that was Kage.
>>740447852A random person isn't gonna recognize Maggie Cheung on the street
>>740448570people will get a fishing sidequest with jeffry and instantly fall in love with the character
>>740449029Kage, too, especially since he serves as a surprising source of slapstick humor. That said, Kage was also teased during the showcase, showing one of the developers working on his model.
>>740449118i'm hyped for kage and akira finally having a rematch.
>>740449090>Cielo catches the satan shark>it gets away>Jeffry shows up to investigate
>>740448937case on point
>>740448853No actually, tell me more
>>740437675Lucy is pretty meh in Strive and incites the >>740442174 issue. Long requested returnees like Raven and Robo-Ky are delayed or MIA, longshots like Kliff or Valentine get their odds decreased further, never-have-beens like Gabriel and Barack Robotma are shelved harder, and it's a big monkey's paw curl to how one of the biggest requests is wholly new characters

>>740449348https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AyxSIdfI4fQ&t=1242sIt was near the end of this upload.
Only MK should have guest characters since MK fans have shit enough taste to like them.
>>740448570it took me years to realize he wasn't a black guy
>>740437792Denji from Chainsaw Man would fit like a glove desu.
>>740443229>>740444146it would be great, if cielo's design didn't suck
>>740449603man i hope this game doesnt flop
Guest characters should never be paid dlc. You are literally paying money for an ad
i never got the complaining about roster slots because i never stick with a main between games, even in a single game i'll switch around a bunch. i know a lot of ppl only play 1 character in a series though and form attachments to them, but i never really got it. there are too many fun characters out there to stick to the same one all the time imo
Is VF5REVO good to get into the genre with? It’s on a good sale

what's the worst crossover guest character in modern games?Yujiro in tekken?Tifa in SF?Lucy in Strive?Saber in Melty?
>>740449801Yeah it's great but it only has a linear arcade mode outside of online vs.
>>740449810Also remove the tattoos
>>740436737not a single character from a good series there
>>740449895its ronaldo and it isn't close, clive is 2nd
>>740445484we saw him on a computer screen
>>740449950the RL people are obvious winners which is why I said crossover characters
>>740447204eileen only works because she's young, she's cooked
>>740449895Tifa in SF is pretty bad because nobody there asked for it. Tekken 7 had Noctis and Negan though. MK has had some real shit guests too
>>740449895All of them are great. I don't see whybpeople are obsessing over it ao much. Guests should be something out of the left field that you don't see in the base game.
>>740449896Is it hard? I’m quite retarded at every fighting game I’ve tried that isn’t Soul Cal
>vanessa and brad are probably gonefeels bad
>>740446880Sex with both
>>740446223Helps explain why the VF Characters fit so well in DOA 5, gameplay wise
>>740449895God there have been so many trash guest characters in recent years man. Smash alone could fill a whole book on how unfitting, undeserved and bad so many of them are.
>>740450105VF is a simple to understand hard to master game.
>>740449354>Lucy is pretty meh in StriveShe was so close to being cool tooHer quickhack is nice but it's generally suboptimal because it leads to a fuckton of meter penalty (worse so in 2.0)Hacks should have been part of her regular kit, with the quickhack super letting you instantly stack hacks on your opponent>>740449448Globally, the S3 survey had>Robo-Ky>Jam>New character (we did get Unika)>Raven>Zappa>Guest (we got Lucy)>HOS>Gabriel>Kum>AnswerIt varies a bit by region, but Robo-Ky is hella popular
>dont like cielo>stella is literally just a sarah cloneI hope the other two are good because I'm not feeling the new characters so far
Ingrid has always been a mistake
>>740449895we reached the lowest fucking point in the genre with COTW.>Saber in Melty?how could anyone hate this one.
>>740436737>how do we get faggot tourists to play our game?
>>740446880>seth's gimmick in sfv was copying moves from other capcom characters not in the game, like demitri, wesker, and the jojo fighting game characters>has makoto's axe kickbrutal
>>740450115If Lei-Fei isn't fully converted to Lau's style I'll riot.
>>740450189i know is you bison
>>740449448Raven regularly tops surveys now that gimmes like Johnny, Slayer, Baiken, and Dizzy are in. Although if you look historically, you can say Zappa had more pull than Robo-Ky until he got a boost
>>740445465put him in King of Fighters if Fatal Fury gets normal Ken
>>740449895ronaldo is easily the worst. that DJ guy could have been honestly kinda charming and wacky but ronaldo was so bad that people hated the DJ too
>>740450187I find Stella to be inexplicable attractive, hottest thing I've seen in years.
>>740449895what the actual fuck were they thinking
>>740450187That jeans s going super low and exposing so much of the tummy it almost starts showing vagina. Back in school all girls walked around like that, even in fucking winter.
>>740450189Do you think Gill could beat up Ingrid for us
>>740450264Why is Seth a transexual?Huhhh???
>>740450317I agree, I just hate these child characters that are literally just their parent, I need something to be different.
>Jacky returns>he's baldHow would you react?
>>740446054All I want is Cody, Dudley, Sean, Ibuki and Skullomania from EX.>>740446232Why do you think only Viper & Juri came back.
>>740450470She ain't Sarah's child bro. She will be a J6 clone. Like they always planned.
>>740450468they're the perfect lifeform, they're supposed to be beyond gender. after getting killed by juri, seth ended up in one of bison's doll bodies, which was modeled after juri apparentlythe better question is why the fuck are so many of bison's planned vessels female
>VF hype has me interested in checking out VF5's latest re-release, maybe try dusting off my skills for Crossroads>Game has kernel level anti-cheat and doesn't start unless you mess with your BIOS settingsholy fuck lmao
>>740450030ok its definitely clive then
>>740450305the DJ guy's animations are too jank
>>740450348Seeing this pop up made me so happy I quit Tekken 7 at the end of season 1.Before that I was "Ehh maybe I come back if they fix stuff" and then this just made me never even look at it in my library again.
>>740450468because nobody fucking likes seth and sex sells
>>740450470>>740450545I remember seeing the J6 logo (an orange diamond) on her jumpsuit, so I'm holding onto the idea that Stella is a J6 agent - either a clone of Sarah, or trained on Sarah's data.
>>740450348I think there should be exceptions like this, where it's just so goofy, out of left field, and so little room for synergy or a marketing push that it wraps back around to being acceptable. Hell, I'd argue there's also room to say that Negan would fit in with the cast if he was an original dude. Noctis was definitely the worse, more soulless pick.
BLACK'D
>>740450606Your system is from 15 years ago?
>>740450569Force femming Seth was SFV's greatest idea. And Bison is clearly trans
>>740450545>>740450658well i hope she doesn't just fight identically to sarah then, that'd still be lame. i never liked the kasumi clone in doa
>>740450606there is a variable you have to add somewhere that essentially tells the game you are using steam deck and let's you start. I don't remember what it was but yeah is annoying, google it
>>740450187how will she fight
>>740450478would send my sides into orbit
>>740450709The new meganigga must seek council from the original giganigga.
>>740450773they should have committed to fem bison
>>740442174>>740437675I always get a laugh when anons act upset about a character spot being taken by a guest in these smaller franchises.You're supposed to sell games like Virtua Fighter and Fatal Fury, but their casts are boring as shit and nobody cares about them, but as soon as some guest gets announced you get tons of people saying shit like>NOOOO HOW COULD THEY PUT TIFA IN THE GAME, I WAS TOTALLY GOING TO PLAY IF THEY ADDED FREEMAN/BRAD/etc. IN THE GAME, I HATE GUESTSLOP, PREORDER CANCELLEDAnd then when said dev puts said scrimblo in the game, surprise surprise, nobody gives a shit and the character is barely used and there's almost no playercount bump. Posers.
>>740450187stella is sarah's daughterthey actually have sex in vf universe unlike in sf universe
>>740449895I give you an objectively bad crossover character that I have a weak spot for.So extremely unfitting and an ad for some generic 7th gen action mashy tie in game.But his style was actually fun but only halfbaked like the CaS styles so it was just wasted potential he did had.At least throws worked on him unlike Yoda.
>>740450569>>740450773actual trash because it has a male voice
>>740450943the world is not ready, maybe next game.Come to think of it, we finally have confirmation that his soul is male
>>740450773Dicktator loves talking about sucking Ryu's essence all day it's hard not to connect the dots.
>>740450721More common than you think. Not him, but I used a 13yo Mobo+CPU+RAM combo up until last year, as that was enough for me to play most games, as most good games run light, and the few modern games I played got 720-1080p60 Low thanks to a modern GPU
>>740450902>the ritual of succession requires him to drink high led gasoline
>>740450187>I'm not feeling the new characters so farThey're VF characters, they're supposed to be uninteresting and bland.
>>740450721what if he does, why should playing a videogame require all these gymnastics
rashid has some sauce, is he fun to play? i know he isn't popular
>>740449895easily Lucy in strive, why would you pick Lucy of all Edgerunners characters
>>740450709 Fuck me they really made him super hot.
>Smash got Cloud and Sephiroth>Tekken got Clive>Street Fighter got TifaWho do you think got the best deal and who got the worst?
>>740451165Smash got the best, Tekken got the worst by far.
>>740437675What about MK's clownshow characters
>>740451157Because she was the strongest and most competent out of them all.
>>740450943HOWHOW DOES CAPCOM DO I?Every single time I see Street Fighter concept art the design they picked as default ingame is always the worst out of all the pitches they made.Yes I am still mad about my cute tomgirl Abel getting turned into another roided up McBeefcake.
>>740450976IIRC they just asked for Vader and Yoda as a fucking around thing, were surprised to get them, and were just told that they needed to include Starkiller. Might be wrong since it's been a while, but there is a vid on it out there that details how it happened
>>740437675i hate guest characters so fucking much, glad you like that every game is fucking fortnite now though
>>740451210The only good thing about modern MK are the guest characters.
>>740451130there is an alarming amount of people that don't know the matchup. He is fun as fuck and the tornado catches midwits every time.
>>740451210MK crossovers were actually cool and fitting at first.MK11 was when it went overboard, but Spawn was still a sick choice.
>>740451048>and the few modern games I played got 720-1080p60 Low thanks to a modern GPUJesus but yeah that is about that cut off age where new hardware just came with it all pre enabled.
>>740450871naked hopefully
>>740451291zoomer detectedopinion discarded
>>740450871>game takes place in a fictional southeast asian country>she has a kris on her tieAlmost certainly Southeast Asian, probably does Silat. Funny coincidence that we're also getting Yasmine who does Silat and is from the Philippines.
>>740451334Spawn? What has he been in since SC2?
>>740451291It all dates back to Gon getting into Tekken 3. Since then it was open season for guests.
>>740451364how is that a zoomer opinion

>>740451258I disagree here, aside from Doll Bison I think the design for SF6 is the coolest Bison has ever been by a wide margin. Shame they brought him back just to job to Ingrid.

>>740450871>this is a fighting game character that's supposed to sell VFCI get that VF characters have no sauce, but why would you continue to make boring ass character designs? This is the time to overhaul the gameplay and visual identity of VF into something interesting for once.
>>740436737Reminder: Tifa is a jobber.
>>740451401No one knew who that little nigga was.Soul Calibur 2 made the big splash that made people aware that you can do that and then Brawl getting Snake specifically was what opened the door for unfitting zero sense crossover wank for everyone.

>>740451732>Secondaries don't deserve the be appealed to.lmao the whole selling point of the game is the story mode for people that don't like/play fighting games, casuals are the main demographic they're shooting for which again makes it weird that they'd continue making more boring VF designs if that's the case.
is this worth picking up right now or is it dead and gay
>>740451794I strongly connect this character to luvcheez spamming her in /fgg/ at launch. Never seen anyone else care about her ever.
>>740443217Akuma is braindead strong as usual with his one weakness being slightly less health. Even if he wasn't, saying someone is the worst shoto is like saying someone is the poorest millionaire
>>740452035Very dead and ultra mega gay with the anit cheat that fucked the game up.
>>740450721My CPU is less than 5 years old. This game is just terribly made.
>chile: isla>peru: azucena>paraguay: cielo>brazil: laura>colombia: zarina>mexico: lilyI feel like Argentina's gotten fucked here in this most recent wave of south american characters
>>740451952>Lili and Reina are the super faggot magnetsFTFYMy favorite thing to do is throw reinas to switch sides and watch their entire gameplay go to shit because 2% of them actually practice the right

>>740452136>Very deadwow
>>740449950>>740450305I don't know why people are so mad at Ronaldo. The KoF American sports team shows that using ball sports in a fight is not out of place in their universe. His gameplay is cool and when he was announced everyone was either positive or laughing at how out of left field he was like Negan anon said:>>740450701I think people only started shitting on it when Americans discovered he had a sexual assault case which I've not heard a single football fan ever mention even when shitting on him. Which is crazy since everyone is presumed innocent by default and his case was dismissed, which means everyone calling him a rapist is committing slander.
>>740451998Why are you asking then retard? Just play them in order starting with 1 then, there's not that many
>>740452158It's about the mobo I am pretty sure.
>>740452241>barret (FF7) and kinnikuman for KIlet's fucking go
>>740441713My only problem with this game is starting the round with a full 6 drive bars.
>>740447204>>740447645>>740450035Eileen's entire story is "I work in a Beijing opera troupe and learned Monkey Fist Kung Fu from my grandpa OMG Pai I'm your biggest fan let me fight you!"
>>740452241The FGC does not deserve a new KI and did not deserve KI.
>>740452363i hated negan too fwiw. it was less egregious though because t7 had a massive roster, but ronaldo was on the launch roster like sure his gameplay is cool but its just unbelievably faggot shit that he's in the game to begin with
>>740452306>everyone was excited for his mechanics >pros and casuals alike>fun and charismatic with one of the only catchy themes in the game>ignored in favor of lukewhat happened to jamie is a tragedy that needs to be studied.
>>740452287>the game is for new playersOkay so why would you make boring new characters for the new players
has anyone tried the steam controller for fightans
>>740452321The future of Tekken is Tekken beach volleyball.
>Talim from Southeast Asia even though she has heavy Filipino influences>Virtua Fighter taking place in Southeast Asia instead of just saying Philippines when it's obviously the PhilippinesWhy do they hate us so much my Filipino bros?
>>740452528Sorry no I am not trans.
>>740452506jamie is by far the most popular sf6 newcomer
>>740452589he didn't post a leverless tho??
>>740452512they aren't boring, they follow the same design principles of the series. You can dislike them if you want, like i said that's on you. New players will have to accept the series for what it is, not for what secondaries wish it was (tekken, everybody knows that's what you want).
>>740452595>above maiholy SHIT
>>740452506Jamie is popular >>740452595you just never see him at tournaments because he's absolute trash tier
>>740451258Almost none of those are fitting other than maybe the suit one. The fact that you like them and lolishota Abel, while hating roided up McBeefcake in the roided up McBeefcake franchise, means you're playing the wrong game. You'd love GG and UNI. Or that is what I would say until Ingrid broke steamcharts numbers and they announced Tifa, now I don't know what the fuck this series identity is.
>>740451291>every game is fucking fortnite now thoughI know it's VERY difficult to communicate without abusing hyperbole but please shut the fuck up.
>street fighter has fully embraces guestslopI genuinely hate this. I hate what SF has become. I know 99% of people disagree but I really fucking hate that this is the new Street Fighter. 3 bland newcomers and a fucking guest character. I think I'm done with 6. This isn't how I want SF to look. I know I'm being overdramatic but I'm genuinely distraught that this is the new norm and no one has a problem with it. This shit is fucking lame and people go gaga for it. It'd be one thing if it was already a precedent for SF, but it wasn't until a couple of years ago.
>>740452551They need to make some new models before that with not such weird looking shoulders.Everyone used to look different and unique in Tekken but in the new age it's just 2 bodytypes.
>>740452754the crazy thing is this isn't even hyperbolic lol. have fun playing on your neon vomit pacman tekken stage tho
>>740452595he's one of the very few characters in the game that doesn't have a dogshit 3D model so it makes sense I guess
>>740452363I don't think I saw that many people hating on him for being an accused rapist. That was always just tossed in as extra. He was always hated more because it was a blatant add by the Saudis, which is grubby and shill-y even without the Saudis being despicable
>>740452219No, original anon had it right. Nothing to do with gameplay, literal homosexuals are drawn in to Lili and Anna for some reason.
>>740452765what's wrong with guest characters?
>>740452765Out of all the things that make SF6 a rancid game that barely resembles Street Fighter, guests are what broke you.
>>740452765you can't shit on guestslop here bro we love pointing at the screen and pogging at tifa. yo is dat tifa from final fantasy thats crazy bro!!! the engagement is gonna be so sick!!!!
>>740452748>SF is not anime!!!Some things never change
>>740452162Colombia got fucked the most since Zarina is the equivalent of a weeabo but for Brazil instead. Might as well have been Brazilian.
A new Toshinden is the only thing that can save us now!
>>740452776>gooner admits tekken should be volley ball gamelmao
>>740452902You can't like guest characters here bro, we love sperging out fiercely at any and all guest characters.Yo, is that a character from a different franchise? I HATE IT! The entire game is now RUINED
>>740453037Yeah, Zarina is "Colombia (currently lives in Brazil)," which made Team South America into just Team Brazil with extra steps.
>>740452902I don't like them. I don't like that SF has a whole cabal of long dormant characters to use that are being sidelined for guests. I don't like the obvious transparent marketing aspect of it. I don't like the way it opens the floodgates for smash-tier rosterfaggotry and speculating on which random faggot from which random franchise will be unnaturally injected next. SF never had this problem before 6. >inb4 but ff! but rival schools!Same universe and it's been that way for about as long as those franchises have been around.
>>740452813>the crazy thing is this isn't even hyperbolicSo you're just fucking stupid then. Yeah, comparing Mai and Tifa in Street Fighter to a game with Thanos, Rick, El Chapulin Colorado, Tracer and Goku all on the same screenshot is perfectly valid and reasonable.
>>740450709>A black character in 2027 without the Killmonger cutShit, they might be onto something.
>>740452450>Eileen gets in the game>She's no longer a cute monkey girl anymore>Now she's a gritty seasoned warrior girlboss that swears a bunch and talks about how embarrassing it was in her past to be obsessed with Pai ChanI don't feel like people are talking enough about how weird it is that Virtua Fighter is getting the gritty realistic reboot treatment. In terms of mood and aesthetics, it's nothing like Virtua Fighter to the point I'm kind of wondering why this even has the VF label.
>>740452902they're ads, they're always overtuned, they're incongruous in the series, these games have big beloved rosters and they take a spot away from legacy characters, they're never allowed to be customized the same level as other characters, they never return again. i can go on
>>740453284>they never return againHaha...surely they won't just become mainstay like in smash...right?
>>740453198Every fighting game is like this now. You have nowhere to run.
tokido's jp is so ass
>>740453282>girlboss out of nowheresomething tells me you don't want to actually discuss the game anon.
If people want crossover characters in fighting games, then either go all the way with it and make games like Smash, MvC, or CvS. Or don't do it at all. Putting random guest characters into a game that's supposed to be that franchise's mainline flagship title is gay as fuck.
Guest characters are OK if they actually play by that game's rules and are from the same company
>>740453282VF was always a 100% seriouse game. Eileen amd Aoi are pretty much the only light hearted characters in it. Everyone else is dead seriouse even if the voice acting dosen't communicate it.
Ok, cool but where is my Goh EDGE KONO?
>>740453282>why isn't Sega appealing to the old VF crowdBecause there is no old VF crowd. So making it look like a Yakuza spinoff is the way to go.
gues characters are fine if i like them.They are not fine if i don't like them.Modeus for DOA6 fucking WHEN
>>740453284>they're adstrue, but weird to be mad now and not when they were adding Chipotle ads in-game>they're always overtunednot always, Terry was considered weak at launch. Ronaldo and Salvatore are weak. I don't remember Negan being overpowered>they're incongruous in the seriesno one cares about this anymore, people in this thread are gonna defend Ingrid saying the series has always been anime. If alien goddess fits, Final Fantasy martial artist fits. Hell, anything fits at this point.>these games have big beloved rosters and they take a spot away from legacy charactersthe newcomers are taking away more spots than the guests>they're never allowed to be customized the same level as other charactersSF guests have more costumes than they have in SNK's games>they never return againSF has a cast so big that the majority of them are never returning again and that's SF's own characters
>>740447645Not like there's a lot of votes but no
>>740453485They really are so obvious. You read a a bit and suddenly buzzard salad every time lol.
>>740453805Usage rates
>>740453745It really is that simple kek Mai is very literally the best thing that ever happened to Dix but the game itself is still dogshit so not even her can make me buy it.
>>740453709>Because there is no old VF crowd.Hey there are still like 200 salarymen at age +40 who play in some arcade cabinets while smoking!
>>740436737Tifa is the shittiest character there.
>>740453905will shun di be in the new game
>>740452580Be happy with Josie and Yasmine who made the Phillipines their personality
>>740453805I kind of hate how hard Goh appeals to me because I can not play his edgelord ass despite being a 3D grappler lover.
>>740453596>In VF5, Aoi wants to fight Brad because he knocked her out of the VF4 tournament>He pulled it off by hitting on Aoi relentlessly, throwing her off, and it's been driving her up the wall ever sinceI think this new VF will still have at least a little humor to it.
>>740453968well, it is indeed pride month after all
>>740453905Laubros... we got usage mogged by Aoi...
>>740453802>the series has always been animeThe series HAS always been anime. That does not mean that a magical girl/alien/goddess/whatever is a good fit, just like she wouldn't be a good fit in literally all anime series because that's just not how it works, but Street Fighter characters are indeed very much anime.
>>740453596>only light hearted charactersBITCH HES WILD
>>740453805>>740453905Akira being a Ryu lookalike is hilarious because he's so technically demanding and not really intended for beginners like Ryu, but because he looks like Ryu beginners will always pick him up
>>740453805>>740453905Aoi was my main in VF4Evo. So strange to see her became actually popular.
>>740453989Josie's personality was crying and taking BBC ( BIG BEAR COCK)Fucking lover her jiggly choco milkers and legs tho.
