You don't need all 8 the world warriors. Not all 8 of them are popular. The launch roster for SF6  has zero Alpha characters*, zero SF3 characters, one SF4 character, and one SFV character if you count Luke. 
 
*I chuckled when I realized I just typed Zero and Alpha in succession.

Really? 
 
Because if we look at the situation, here's how you can access SF3:
- Unofficial emulator with a pirated ROM copy via Fightcade, only on PC
- Part of a legacy collection with other classic SF games, with terrible netcode and in general shitty online environment 
 
That's not exactly ideal 

No Final Fight characters in the base roster is pretty egregious seeing how central Metro City is for world tour. Cody should have been a no brainier

I do find it odd that there are no Alpha or 3S characters, as Vhozite pointed out, but it does seem especially weird there isn’t one 3S character because that’s the most recent game chronologically.
 
SF3 was hit hard at the time for a few reasons (new characters, 3D fighters were more popular, arcades were dying, etc), but that was over 20 years ago now, and some of these characters are beloved now. I personally love the 3S cast, but I certainly understand they’re not as iconic/popular as the returning characters they added. I just hope some come as DLC eventually.

I would have taken any character from either Alpha or 3rd Strike instead of Luke and Ed to be honest.

That’s crazy seeing the Ryu SFV being used like this. Man it’s been 7 fucking years man lol 

besides
 
lily was shown years ago in this official art, she just never had a name yet
 
Hawk is playing with her
 

Hawkingbird's staircase right now
 

Friendly reminder the devs still haven't said if she's underage or not 

For a crack abuser, he shouldn't be complaining against a character hes had 8 months to lab against

Fuck I need this game to come out I legitimately do not want to play another video game 

I gotta give it up to these guys. They look like they legit love street fighter. Everything about it feels like its them wanting to bring something they love in a new light.
 
 

THEY GAVE MANON THE SOUL CALIBUR 2 ALT!!!! IM BACK ON WHITE WOMEN ALERT ALERT IM BACK ON WHITE WOMEN!!!!!

thing gave me ken
 
its obviously broken, send it hte fuck back

its always weird to me when I see people treating me like im some kinda big deal
like, I never stopped being the same guy ive been for the last forever

Seeing random people mention Evil Canadian will never stop being weird/hype.

Bold of you to think I know or pay attention to anything.
 
All I do is push random buttons and arbitrarily DP/flash kick...and it breaks people.
 
🙂
 
I don't see why anyone would complain about the crack, especially people who have been in the scene a long time.
 
Are people just forgetting how Japan got many games up to a YEAR earlier than the US?  During the SF4 days all of North America had to rely on a few cabs in SoCal and like 4 cabs in NYC.  Japan basically played for an entire year before the US even got a chance to play the console release.  For older games the time and knowledge gap was even worse since there wasn't nearly as much easily accessible and reliable info on the internet, and sometimes the US never even got games at all.
 
Shit will sort itself out in two months after release anyway.  These days people learn and share tech so fast any knowledge gap closes very quickly.
 
People are losing their minds but let's be real - FG competitive scene has never been 'fair' and it doesn't even matter.  The only people who will be able to rise to the top will be the ones who grind a ton anyway, with or without a head start.

Getting some of my gaming friends into sf6 and I was like just wait till your see this big fucker.
 
Edit: they loved the beta a lot more than i expected. None have any fighting game experience and that all had a blast. They got super hype watching me play against other randos. I was not a fan of 5 and I'm so fucking happy 6 feels this great. 

Looool Gief SPD damage makes me giggle like a child shit is outrageously high. Controllers will be thrown.
