I never understood that. Blanka is one of the worst Street Fighter designs, and kinda racist on top of that. In a game of cultural stereotypes, the one from Brazil being a literal monster is a bit poo poo.

Blanka isn't from Brazil. This whole discussion is stupid.

Sagat has been a good guy/anti-hero in everything except SF2

I would also Vega is a pretty offensive stereotype, he's an effeminate bull-fighting flamenco dancer who wears a matador sash/boots and squeals/yodels incessantly.

Capcom just made him as an alternate future "what if?" character to show what he'd be like if he succumbed to the Satsui no Hado.

I think it's stupid that they put him in SSF4. I mean they already explored the possibility of him fully in Alpha 3, what possible thing is there left to see with him? Put a real new character, not the same one in different clothes.

Of course the same applies to Oni.

Now don't be elitist. Everyone in this thread gives at least a modicum of a gently caress about the characters that they play, and you do too. If all the characters were just metallic polygons with different moves you think anyone would give a gently caress about the game? I mean seriously, be honest here.

Alright well here's the deal. Unless you post a thread about your upcoming game with details, images, etc, you forfeit the right to bring it up at all. Don't mention it, don't hint at it, don't reference it, don't talk about giant anime babes. Got it?

Okay, I'm being completely serious here. Do you honestly think anyone who doesn't have a giantess fetish will play it? Don't you think people would feel a little uncomfortable playing a game like that? Regular porn games are bad enough.

It's the kind of thing you'd only play if you were doing something like MMO Roulette/Second Life Safari/whatever. Like that one vore MMO or that fighting game with farting anime girls or Furcadia.

So I was thinking of making my own fighting game based on the Windjammers IP where you can only perform specials and supers if you are in control of the frisbee.

If there are any indie studios developing a fighting game in need of a designer who doesn't actually contribute anything meaningful, I am accepting.

I hate to agree with Cabbagepots but Evil Ryu and Oni do really feel like a waste of character slots. Evil ____ could be a cool character concept but they're way cooler when it's someone else with the same fighting style rather than the same person and, more importantly, we already had an evil version of Ryu. Throw anyone else in there and it becomes awesome, who wouldn't want to play as Evil Guile ("Charlie, what did shadowloo do to you!?") or Evil Zangief (Someone truly deserving of the name Oni)?

The problem with Oni on the other hand is that his character design and playstyle don't line up at all. Everything about him visually says "I am the biggest baddest evilest mother fucker" but all of his attacks are tricky gimmicks. I'm fine with that playstyle but make him look and act like a tricky gimmicky character; he could be a kung-fu clown, a Dickensesque street urchin, the ghost of Go Hibiki, whatever, go nuts with it, but that synergy between flavour and function is important.

Ken is actually like a cargo cult stereotype. He's representative of a Japanese social group of teenagers called "Yankee" who were called so because they acted in a way that uptight old Japanese men thought was stereotypical of those evil Americans. Basically they listened to loud rock music, got into fights and dyed their hair a horrible shade of bleached blonde. The brash, arrogant, martial arts master Yankee with a heart of gold is a really common stock character in Japanese media from around the time Street Fighter was made.
