There had to be one thing SFV does better than 6. Turns out it's music. I wish they went more in the direction of Tekken style music. Tekken soundtrack has so many bangers.

I like longish combos but yeah too long and things can get annoying for the opponent. Street Fighter Alpha 3 pushed it to the max in terms of combos and while I love that game, the infinites are obviously dumb. Blazblue and anime games which involve 30 hit juggles are not for me. And cinematic supers have never bothered me. They happen rarely enough to be bothersome, and I think ultimate attacks deserve a nice cutscene.

At this point, I think it's happening. The more I think about it though, I doubt we'll get new characters. They'll want us to wait for the release to get everything.

Open beta let's go. I missed the first one and was away for the second one. One more with all the characters please!

I don't know, The Legend of Chun Li is one of my all time favourite comedies.

I was about to pop off if Nemo won it all with Gill. Alas, it was not meant to be, but it was still one of the best SFV tournaments in a long time. Chen, Ultra David and Yipes on commentary was a nice touch.

Just this one

KOF fans finally get rollback for XIII. "New Fatal Fury FURIOUSLY in development" lmao.

That tweet from Hitbox is kinda cringe. Why don't they just release a firmware update like the snack box:

Damn dude. I got my Karin up to level 86 and I've been playing since release. Your Cammy is maxed out.

Hell nooooo......the newcomers are amazing. How dare you throw them in with Luke.

You can tell that the guy wanting online tournaments basically started competing during COVID. He really doesn't seem to recognize all the benefits of offline tournaments.

And he's getting all that off a st.LK. Like Ryu in 5 also does a crapton of damage but he has to land like solar plexus to access it.

Drive reversal seems a lot less important than Vreversal in 5 since everything in 6 is negative plus there's other defensive options like parry. The only time I saw drive reversal was in that Honda/Lily match. Honda used it against Lily's condor spire because it's + and she gets free pressure afterwards.

Tokido's Akuma highlights were some of the best SFV matches. His match against' Punk's Karin in the EVO final and against Mena in the Capcom final as well (even though he lost). Tokido just needs to be on Akuma, his results with Urien and Luke haven't been the same. Looking forward to his imminent return to Akuma in 6.

Not a fan of evil shotos but I will say when done right they can be hype. Loved Daigo's Evil Ryu and Tokido's Akuma. Watching people get Raging Demon'd never gets old.

I honestly completely forgot about Akira lol. Wouldn't mind seeing her back she was a unique character with flashy stuff like those slow motion rival schools air combos. Think they could a lot of cool stuff with her in 6. Laura is interesting too but I feel like there are already a lot of female command grab characters that kind of fit her function. Down the road maybe....

What do you guys think about SF5 newcomers getting into 6? Personally I'd like to see Menat, G, and Lucia make it in at some point. I know the odds aren't great on Lucia but the other two have a decent shot I think.

I wouldn't be against it but they'd need to spice him up a bit. SF4 Fei was super boring.

Funny thing is that guy is on gamefaqs which is like the very definition of toxic.

Keep guest characters out of SF unless it's from the same universe. I'm glad Capcom has resisted the temptation not to follow in the footsteps of some of these other companies. Guest characters are a short term cash grab that hurts the game in the long run. They actually make me not want to buy the game.

Yeah I started with charge characters in 4 because I was switching to arcade stick for the first time. Started with Vega and then Bison. Charge characters are just easier than motion characters as a beginner, or as in my case switching to a new type of controller. The last charge character I played was Leona in KOF. Admittedly, I haven't played a charge character in a SF in a long time (unless you count Necalli but he was more of a hybrid than a pure charge character). It's not something I'd rule out in 6 though.

I can't get enough of these.
