Literally every piece of artwork used here is better than what they put on the cover of the game.

Steam really is Capcom's worst nightmare at this point.

Yes and no. V-Triggers were pretty bad but they were a once-per-round occurrence. Whereas Drive Rush is pretty prevalent, whether it's having to deal with the opponent using it or yourself using it to get in or extend combos. It's always either happening or in the back of your mind and (in my opinion) overshadows every other aspect of the moment-to-moment gameplay. I've never felt that way about any other SF system mechanic except for Parry, which coincidentally I also disliked.

Chun is probably the best of the bunch. I wish Capcom weren't scared to play around with default hairstyles on characters like that 

I know indie fighters are a bit hit & miss, but this looks pretty nice: 
 
 
 
Fantastic art style and I'm surprised the idea hasn't been done before. They might need to add some depth of field because right now foreground and background kind of mesh together a bit, but it's a really promising early build.

Cheap bastards should have put it all on the cartridge though. Still don't really see the point of a retail release that only accommodates half of the game.

Just saw the news about Floe, that's really unfortunate. He seemed like a genuinely nice guy who always distanced himself from the puerile drama that often happened in the scene.
 
But at the risk of sounding tactless, it also emphasizes how important it is to have a healthy lifestyle even while participating in a hobby and community that doesn't often align with it.

Indirectly they're always involved due to the Saudis owning SNK and owning some Capcom shares as well.
 
But despite that link, a fighting game tournament is the wrong place for activism (as are art galleries for that matter). If your actions start to annoy people, then they stop caring about what is essentially a noble goal. It's the same trap feminism fell into a few years ago. But I realise it's also a vicious circle, because doing everything by the book doesn't lead to change.
 
Anyway, that's my SF6 post for today.

I'm not a developer either but the only way for it to work would be to keep the data from every previous iteration hidden in the code, right? I can see why they don't necessarily want to do that, that's a lot of extra QA work per patch for very little (in their eyes) benefit.
 
I wonder though if UE4 had some toolsets to make this easier which would explain why SFV had the feature while 6 doesn't.

They fixed that one already. I think it was in the first bug fix patch. They addressed it pretty quickly. Capcom seems to pretty good about addressing critical issues this go around.

Didn't they fix that in a previous patch?
