Kyo's entire personality is that he's an rear end in a top hat, he's just not a murderous rear end in a top hat like Iori. Like Yuki's appearance in the Sacred Treasures ending in XV is the only time I can think of where he's not just being a giant piece of poo poo to his girlfriend.

Oh and he has magic hand powers. And he acts like an uninterested cool guy. The tie is the least of his problems. he's just zoomer iori i don't see the problem

Also most of the SF5 newcomers are cool. Like Ed and Falke are the only real half baked ones, and even Falke at least has some fans. Ed probably would too if he had not had a shitload of problems that they slowly fixed. Probably still has some.

SF's biggest competition as 'the fighting game casual gamers know about and plays' are Tekken and whatever poo poo the MK team have poo poo out this year and this art style does not pull them apart from those two.

I do like the idea of a psycho power swift boxer in the SF2 style that's functionally very different from the Rog and the Duds. Playing him though is...ehhhhhhhhhhh

Playing him though is...ehhhhhhhhhhh The psycho pulls and such were also cool ideas, but like with Falke, they never really landed on a totally consistent identity and character for him. The up kick thing also looks terrible, surely they could've found a better animation. Falke ultimately fared better because she's got pretty strong neutral tools and combo damage, but she's just nothing as a memorable character outside of gameplay.

Most of the SFV suck rear end. Particularly the ones that are supposed to play like the old characters but are completely new characters visually, those suck extra.

The one I'll always agree with the sentiment on is Abigail, throw that weird pinhead gently caress in the trash and bring back the boy Hugo.

SF5 was a mess. But they did support it well and cspxom had made some absolutely amazing games since then, really been on a roll. So I'm optimistic about this new one! This is the first one for decades without Ono too. Reiley posted:Simply put, Street Fighter is for the straights.

I've never minded the design of Shun'Ei. I don't know much about his lore, but he always struck me as a teenager stretched way too thin with his responsibilities, and his outfit reflects that. Nice clothes for school, beads for temple, pant leg rolled up for part time job as bike courier, hand wraps for martial arts training, and of course headphones. He feels like a very busy design because he is a busy person, and it's not supposed to fit together. It's like the gig economy of characters. His gameplay fits this pretty well too imo, hyper-mobile with unique movement options always rushing around everywhere. I have no idea if any of this matches his lore.

It's so weird to go 'SF5 dlc was worst than base' when it comes to designs, because SF5 base designs were garbage . I don't even like SF5 all that much, but it's the game that gave us G, Akira, Zeku, Menat, Suit Urien, Hawaiian Shirt Oro, Blanka-Chan, Rose and Lion Mane Akuma. There are some great characters in that roster from a design and gameplay standpoint. J.A.B.C. fucked around with this message at 13:20 on Feb 22, 2022 |

I cannot overstate how incredibly un-cool the Abigail design is compared to Hugo.

PaletteSwappedNinja posted:Iori has always sucked, is the problem This is Cursed For SFV, I loved Menat, G, Zeku, and I have a soft spot for Falke though I also think her white story outfit should be her main design, and she should have more complex stuff like Venom in Guilty Gear. Necali is neat but story wise a huge dissapointment, and Rashid owns. Kolin is fun to play and I like her coat Abigail is a trash design and we could have had Sodom or Hugo Ed's art makes him look smaller and wirey and more interesting, where as in-game he looks like a roided up Leon Kennedy Luke is just meh to me at this point design wise I will never forgive V for dumpstering my girl Juri though TulliusCicero fucked around with this message at 14:24 on Feb 22, 2022 |
