If you're willing to end up with two sticks (and you should because then you have one for friends!) I'd say it's worth trying to get a second hand RAP4 for sub $70 to see if you like sticks first, before dropping $200 on a higher-end one.

Is there a trustworthy place to get second hand sticks? Cheapest I'm seeing it is the blue version on Amazon for $115, new.

You should get a lot of different fighters to know what you like then once you feel burned a few times you can start to pick and choose.

I beat my head against competitive sf5 for years and made myself even more insufferable to be around than usual. sf4 is great though, but I couldn't recommend it to anyone that doesn't already have an interest in it

Everybody thinks the game looks ugly

I honestly think SFV still looks good, even if some of the character designs are bad (looking at you, Ken's face). I do think SFV highlights that maybe Capcom should maybe move beyond characters' hands being as large as their heads, because I'm tired of being creeped out by Dictator's win animation.

The last of the Granblue fantasy Character trailers came out today.

All that armor :allears: And the entire roster really does look fun to play as. It will be a good year for fighting games next year.
The rest of the trailers are also on youtube.

I really liked Charlotta in the beta, but all of the character trailers we've gotten recently makes me think that we got shafted in what we can expect in the full game. Every new character looks like a ton of fun.

Does anyone own third party pads? I'm currently using DS4 for Tekken but I feel like upgrading. The Razer Raion looks good but what about the Hori/Dobe offerings?

The issue is more that capcom is really bad at posing the models/angling the camera so you dont notice stuff like that.

I honestly can't believe anyone thinks SFV looks good. Everyone looks like they're on steroids, super harsh angles, giant hands, etc. I do like some of the new character designs though, I just wish they were in a game with a different art direction/style.

LMAO Dragonball FighterZ loving owns. I have no idea what I was doing but I managed to shoot lasers everywhere at everything.

I read Frieza was a zoning character so I figured that meant a lot of special moves and fancy button inputs a la Peacock from Skullgirls, I didn't expect to be able to just mash A and B and vomit projectiles across the screen endlessly

Agree I just feel they'd look even better in any other game. But Menat is my favorite new design by far.

I like G but I'm not sure if I like the style of the character more than how he's actually drawn and animated. Still, G is probably my favourite addition to SFV.

i think G has way too much going on, you can't have magical moving golden geography tattoos and also be Abraham lincoln and also your whole body turns gold. plus I think he's really ugly ingame. they should have given him darker skin or changed the tattoo color, because shiny gold on pasty white looks gross.

I used to use only DualShocks for Guilty Gear, but I switched to the Hori Fighting Commander and I like it a lot more.

When they're not phoning it in (Falke) on the newer characters, the animators also have done a pretty good job adding a lot of character as well.

I think SFV is a testament to the problems that come with outsourcing. The quality of design and animation among the cast is wildly variant, even within the same release window.

Blanka looks like he got twice the budget they gave to Sakura.

Yeah, which I think helped to sell Menat and G (although I do agree that the moving gold tats is a bit much, which is why I stick to the Q alt).

And I gotta say, SFV Blanka is the first time I put any time into Blanka since the original SF2.

Yeah I'm not sure what niche is served when there's actively played and supported Tekken and SF games, the former that you can even just slap Street Fighter characters in

Feels like resources that could be better spent on Tekken 8
