They didn't have nylon pantyhose in the 1500sSo what exactly is she wearing?
Women didn't dress like this in the 1500s.wtf?
They also didn't have hair dye, leather for her belt or swords yet either, what's you'r point?Also is it SoulCalibur, Soulcalibur or Soul Calibur?
>>12450963It has always been Soulcalibur, yet it feels so wrong.
>>12450921it's silk.
>>12451114>post-Inferno fight silk stocking feet sweat scentI love fighting games.
Japs tend to this things I can't even describe itNo one else would make some shit like Samurai Warriors or Dynasty Warrior
>>12450963Leather is really ancient thoroughlybeithood?
>>12451291yeah but not thousands of years ago in the 15th century
>>12451292Pretty sure it was, a quick wiki search mentions 7000 years ago in China. I'd be surprised it wasn't also common in Europe by the Antiquity. Think of the roman sandals
>>12451292>>12451296Also, medieval armor plates were held together by leather straps, there's no reason they didn't do leather belts either
>>12451303Cows live to about 60 years old idiot you think they live for thousands of years?
>>12451307Leather isn't living tissue you think they wear living cows they make leather straps while the cow is still alive you nincompoop
>>12451313I will conseed that you're a dolt. Leather isn't thousands of years old like cheese and milk aren't thousands of years old. You must be born sideways you fruit.
>>12451317I will accept your thinly masked concession on the basis that you're a pathetic wanker looking for gooner content but instead is settling on brushing your ego by deliberately lowering your reading comprehension to toddler-levels in an effort to drag an anon in a very low effort bait and you know that by leather being thousands of years old i meant leather making was developed by humans a few thousand years ago and that i didn't imply that leather fucking evolved to grow on trees a few thousand years ago you fucking idiot.
>>12450963>>12450971I’ve always gone with SoulCalibur because it just looks right.

>>12450921I love Cassandra. Her 1P outfit in every game is based off of a different modern stereotype. SC2 looks kinda like a cheerleader, SC3 is a regular school uniform worn in a messy way, SC4 is sukumizu, SC6 is a bunny girl outfit where her bow acts as bunny ears. There's also unrealized concept art showing her in nurse outifit. Her Soul Edge look (which is limited to 2D art) is the only one that doesn't seem totally out of the time period.
>>12451845kek
>>12450921Body paint
>>12450971Same with "Seong Mi-na". Thats a mi-no from me lmao
>>12450962Ivy is cool.

Dunno how to to feel about this series peaking on the GCN with Link
I've been spending too much time on /vg/ and it is balm for the soul to come back to a board that's sort of for grownups and see a waifu-related thread in which every visible character, every single one, is obviously postpubescent.Okay carry on then
>>12452254You heard him, no Amy allowed in this thread
You heard anon, here's some more waifu-age waifu.They really didn't have to give Sophitia and Cassandra nylins or thigh-highs, but they did, and they shaped my youth.Same can be said about Ivy's... everything
>>12451779imagine the smell
>>12450921>>12453079Greece was part of the Ottoman Empire at the time, yet they worshipped the old gods.
>>12452114WRONG.She's hot
>>12454516Soul Edge Official Fan Book ~The Chronicle~ says that Sophitia's beliefs are very much an exception among the Greeks in SoulCalibur's universe. The great majority of 16th century Greeks are Orthodox just like in real world history. Ancient Greek temples are crumbling and are being scavenged for building stone. Hephaestus says that she's the only one who can receive the gods' oracle because no one else can hear their voices anymore. This was sort of soft-retconned in SoulCalibur, where it was revealed that Hephaestus did in fact talk to other Greeks and created 24 holy warriors in total (Aeon "Lizardman" Calcos among them), one for each letter of the Greek alphabet.Cassandra doesn't hear Hephaestus's voice and it's unclear how much she believes in the gods. In Soul Edge Official Fan Book ~The Chronicle~, she seems to be reassured by the prospect of her sister receiving the gods' protection on her journey. When Sophitia comes back she's the only one who believes her about the oracle. However, in SC2 she seems to blame Hephaestus for the misfortune that befell Sophitia and her children and goes to the Shrine of Eurydice to yell at him. It's unclear if she received the gods' blessings as well or if it's just the divine weaponry that she stole from the temple that enhances her fighting abilities. It's also unclear whether she has the same healing powers that Sophitia has.
>>12456127>Sophitia believes Cassandraif that's a reference, nice.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cassandra"was a Trojan priestess dedicated to the god Apollo and fated by him to utter true prophecies, but never be believed."
>>12456214It's actually the opposite. Sophitia told her family about the reason and purpose behind her journey and Cassandra was the only one who believed her. That's what the SC2 website lore text. But they clearly made references to mythical Cassandra earlier in Soul Edge Official Fan Book during Cassandra's meeting with the travelers. After one of them lifted up Cassandra's spirits by saying that Sophitia may have gone on a quest ordained by gods and that gods protect their heroes, Cassandra's newfound hope is described as "seeing the future" where her sister comes back home safe and sound. Curiously enough, that didn't fully come true. Sophitia was wounded and unconscious when Taki brought her back.It's also a theme in SC6 where old timeline Cassandra tells new timeline Cassandra about the SC5 future where Sophitia dies and her children experience other misfortune. Preventing that future becomes new timeline Cassandra's goal from that point on.

>>12459148BasedSophitia is takenIvy is second best girlTaki is disgusting jjokbariTalim is jailbaitXianghus looks like a trannyAnd Seong mina looks like she smells
>>12450921I'm convinced Soul Caliber is just a fetish game in disguise of fighting game. Every single girl is designed to cater to something specific for a man's erection.
>>12459948You are correct. Me personally, I find myself attracted to Ivy because of her big fat titties
>universe with literal magic and demons>Tights are where your suspension of disbelief endsThis alternate universe invented pantyhose in the 1500's or earlier as their timeline is not our timeline.
>>12459948And thats a good thing.

>>12464460>6'0" vs 5'11"
>>12464460I was like 16 when I first saw Talim, so I was the same age as her, and seeing that image made something in my brain go "Oh? OH...!" Amy also gave me similar feelings, even more so since I was always a big sucker for goths and emos.Ivy, Taki, Seung-Mina, those are all really good too, but Amy and Talim are more special to me. I'm so glad I'm tall, almost all women are short to me.>>12466369It can lend a certain honest quality to a game.>Yeah, we put hot and cute girls in there just like we like them, because it's OUR game.
>>12451845BUURRNNNNNN
>>12464460>his junk is pushing directly against her wombI know they were trying to do a Ryu vs Akum type of thing, but it clearly doesn't work.I'm almost certain the artist knew this and went for it anyways for kink reasons.
>>12450921Nothing, she just has African legs.
>>12468182Isn't it great?
>>12450963Officially it's Soulcalibur, but SoulCalibur is also okay. Soul Calibur is the name of the actual sword.
>>12450921Probably trousers made of wool like many peasants of the time. She's lucky to not be burned at the stake for crimes against God and decency
>>12468912I never realized it was the name of the sword. I always thought is was caliber misspelled because japanese but I'm assuming it's a reference to Excalibur. Maybe they thought calbur just meant sword and the Ex in front of it was just to make it sound cool. Because japanese.
>>12469345That's the sort of thing which does indeed happen, like how Neon Genesis Evangelion got its title "because it sounded complicated," and didn't really mean anything.
>greece is part of the ottoman empire>gigantic temples dedicated to pagan gods dozens of kilometers up in the mountains that are still in use despite greeks being christian by this point
>>12466432All the girls in SOulcalibur are babes, but Talim, Cassandra, Setsuka and Amy make me want to ride them till Kingdom Come
>>12471534The temples aren't in use. Per Soul Edge fan book, the Shrine of Eurydice looks like a pile of ruins when the Spanish adventurers come there together with Cassandra. This happens after Sophitia already received her oracle from Hephaestus and visited the temple before she set out on her journey. In the game itself it's described as having been "restored through her faith." I can think of two possible explanations. One is that nothing ever changes physically about the temple and it only appears as a beautiful and complete building to holy warriors. The other is that the temple was physically restored, but Siegfried came there, fought Sophitia, and turned it into a pile of rubble again. This is what it looks like when Siegfried fights Sophitia in his Edge Master Mode, but it's uncertain whether that encounter is canon. Siegfried cuts through some pillars to search inside them and finds Atlas Sword. The description that one of the Spanish adventurers provides mentions pillars cut by human(s) (as opposed to gods). I think that later games likely retcon whatever explanation is true. The Shrine of Eurydice always looks immaculate and is never referred to as "ruins" again in any of the SoulCaliburs EXCEPT SoulCalibur VI where the narrator says "ruins of the Shrine of Eurydice" once in Cassandra's Soul Chronicle (but the stage itself still looks extremely tidy). In any case, the number of individuals confirmed to have visited it during the time span of the entire series is probably less than a dozen. Only Sophitia and maybe Rothion use it to pray. That's hardly "still in use.">>12464285Too fat. My Cassandra isn't this fat.
>>12462426They rarely got it right, but I still dislike how they replaced the Priene Inscription of Alexander the Great on their swords with some meaningless scribbles from SoulCalibur IV onwards.
>>12450962>That move where she crushes the opponent under her foot
>>12450921That pantyhose traveled back in time to 1500s like Heihachi in SoulCalibur II. Cassandra just found it randomly.
>>12450921I was always a fan of Talim as a kid. Which sucks because while I got older, Talim hasn't. I just want to grow old together with my original waifu. Middle aged Talim when?
>>12475491Don't worry, 16 is legal in the Philippines.
>>12475491Legal in my state.
>>12475491She's not real, so you can just lust for her delicate 16 year old body anyway.
>>12450921Exactly, you can't blame me for anything, just look at the way she's dressed. It's so, so transcendent.>>12451369She got my attention the first time I saw her at the arcades in Toronto. https://youtu.be/jNYm5NhJPjQ
>>12450963^This.
