Btw if we get claw, i hope they remember this design, would be sick Alt 3

Would be a sick main costume.

Watching reaction videos, I'm surprised how many people though Bison was Sagat at first.

I suppose his face DOES look like an eyepatchless Sagat.

His will to power and strength is undying. Where you put him his nature is to climb the hierarchy and assert his dominance and power. I'm sure he came to a realization or two, and he might change the means to his ends but the ends remain the same.

That's what I mean.  That hopefully he's realized that getting 4 chuckleheads together and forming a paramilitary group isn't his best path to success.

I do wonder if Bison ever recreated Shadaloo, who would he replace Balrog with. I think Vega and FANG will always side with him.

I honestly don't think that's going to happen.  I think whatever is going on with him in this game is going to end up being transitional.  I don't know what he's going to be in the next game, but I don't think he's just going to reform Shadaloo and go right back to doing what he was before.

At best, his last defeat would have granted him some kind of epiphany.  At worst, he'd at least have realized that the thing he's been trying to do for the last 5 games always ends in failure.

Joe would be welcome, but reeeally doubt we would get him playable, would still like see him at least as NPC like we got Retsu

I think of SF1ers Eagle have decent chance to make a cameo, specially considering SF6 story will involve a lot Ken and during difficult times Eagle helped/covered him by hiring him in his company

Joe, Lee and Geki should have questlines like Restu(with Cody, Jamie and Vega's normals).  As should Dean from FF3.

Eagle, like any formerly playable character, shouldn't be relegated to a non-playable role.  He should come back as a real fighter.

Mike should be retconned to have been Balrog the whole time.

JP didn't turn Bosch. Ed's crew did. They were helping the rebels of Nayshall. Why would JP try to blow himself up.

Why would Ed's crew be turning people INTO Psycho Power monsters?  Their whole goal is to help Shadaloo's victims.  Not create more.

Bosch was voluntarily helping the Rebels.  Bosch didn't volunteer for the Psycho infusion, he was kidnapped.

but ironically they achieved much faster exactly what Bosch wanted... a way to become stronger fast, not only he got PP but his body got augmented too

Yet based on the story, he still doesn't get stronger as fast as the player.

Because secret SiRN Copy Fighter!

So that begs the question which Neo Shadaloo faction is making Bison clones like the one in the secret lab stage?

I'd say it's JPs faction.  Because the lab belongs to the same branch that turned Bosche.

Bison's theme

*sigh* Crap.

Why the fuck are Neo Shadaloo doing research and looking for Bison, exactly? 

I thought the whole point of the organisation is Ed and Falke breaking off into their own sort of "neutral" branch that is neither good nor evil but just going their way, and after the events of Shadow Falls there's kinda nobody to enact revenge upon anymore 

It seems to be two different groups using the same name.

Ed called the name of himself and his collection of victims 'Neo Shadaloo'(which is incredibly stupid if you ask me.  It's like a group of people who were persecuted by Germany during WW2 calling themselves the "New Nazis").

But then JP, seizing on what he viewed to be good branding, also started calling the actual remnants of Shadaloo 'Neo Shadaloo' as well.

Bison made Psycho phylacteries

The kids call them horcruxes these days.

I just remembered that a couple months ago, we had that leak that S2 was going to be Bison, Elena, Mika and Sakura.

What do you guys think the chances are that it might actaully be true after a fashion, and Mika and Sakura might either get revealed for S2 later, or are the first 2 characters of S3?

By the way Charlie died for nothing twice now while this is technically Bison's third return from the "dead" 

 

So much for the heroic sacrifice at the end of SFV story

Ah, but, if Bison wasn't really dead, is Nash?

Guests are'nt necessary negative in my eyes, and i say it when still i HATED hard Guests in other fighting games in the past

It REALLY pissed me off in the last SamSho game.  Where the game started wasting fully half of it's DLC Seasons on guest characters.  Some on some real "Wtf are you doing?" sources like For Honor or some Chinese mobile game.

We coulda had Gen-an, or Sieger, or Andrew or Gaoh instead.  But nooooo...

If the task of our avatar is to bring back his old memories, so we might get his old self again for the WQ.

Quite possible.  In the gameplay trailer, we see the interaction where he doesn't know who Bison is.  But in his reveal trailer, we see that scene of him trying to absorb the psycho drive in the Shadaloo stage.

The first is probably your character first meeting him.  And the second could be the conclusion of a questline you do with him to get him as a Master.  And absorbing the drive results in him regaining his memories.

You know, ever since Teppen introduced Ryu redesigned with a cowl the fashion sense seems to have spread to his rivals (minus Ken)

They're saving it for *gag* Violent Ken...

I would've much rather had Cody and Maki.

100% this.

Since the previous one got taken down:

I don't like the outfit, but his moveset looks rad.

"Do I resemble this man you call Bison? I shall take that name for myself!"

hmm, so amnesia, but still has  villainous dialogue

Great.  So we're just doing Seth's SF5 story again...but with Bison.

I know they dont care about it, but I really hope they give Elena a meatier storyline this time

Lol, nobody has a meaty storyline in SF6.

Does SF6 let you buy characters individually?  Cause I don't want to be an enabler for this guest character crap.

Well...that Elena design is great.

That's about the only good things I have to say about season 2...

Bison's redesign is bad.

And FUCK guest characters.  We only get 4 characters a year, and half of them won't even be SF characters?

Sakura and Seth i just don't want them, but think we will get both lol

I mean, it's pretty obvious SiRN is diectly linked to Seth.

But you would pick her in S2 as fourth ansatsuken rep with hado+srk+tatsu, knowing even just within waifus group basically anybody else would bring more variety?

I've already accepted that a shoto per season is practically an inevitability.

S2:  Sakura

S3:  Sagat

S4:  Sean

S5:  Gouken

S6:  Seth

S7:  Dan

Well, fucking Sakura won 1st place, polls most effective use is to find reason lose faith in humanity

I'm always happy too see Sakura return.  I always hope that, this time, she'll finally have the correct default outfit and be gym teacher Sakura.

Wait...does the WWE give everyone a sprite like that?

I'm just glad there's another lvl 2 Super now that's not some weird gimmick move.  I was tired of using Eraser.

Sadly, I gave up on using Ed's normals.  They're just too awkward.

Hopefully Dudley or Balrog comes out and has a better boxing moveset.

I love Akuma's Teleport throw for my CAF, because it's an awesome move that doesn't overlap with other inputs.

Guys, when you have some time, would you mind checking if Gouki mentions entering tournaments (or only the SF2 tournament) in order to find stronger fighters in the jpn version.

Somehow, I doubt he uses the phrase "The Street Fighter 2 tournament".

How would you even refer to that tournament in-universe?
