So does anyone around these parts do the thing where they take the SF5 character artwork and remove the backgrounds?

I don't have backgroundless versions of Dan, Rose or Eleven.

We still need a Season 6 so we can get Rolento, Viper and Elena.

But is that localization accurate?

I'm sure they meant she was a former student in some highschool in Italy. 

Funny.  But, like I said, another actually possible interpretation is that she is a fellow "former student" of the same master.

Bison's other half my ass! Where is LordVega? Someone call him in here let me rub it in!

Look, I get you're looking for a different outcome there, and I hope you get it, but "former student" is in no way clear, or conclusive without confirmation of WHO she's the former student of.

Yeah, Rose being Bison' horcrux was always a pretty stupid plot thread.  It'd be nice if they just quietly dropped it.

Wish it wasn't too late to do that with Cammy's clone backstory...

Yeah that struck me too @JustBrowsing. It implies that Rose was Bison's student.

Or that she was a fellow apprentice of the same master.

I'm surprised Oro didn't act like a perverted old man in Rose's story. That was one of his character traits in 3rd.

Eh, kinda.  He's not, like, a sex pest like Roshi.  He just assumes all cute girls are coming on to HIM.  Because why wouldn't they?

What if they add a new version of  storymode in-game(In-SFV) but set in alpha timeline instead

If they try and do Alpha without doing an anime art style, I will throw molotovs.

I think people are taking the "back to zero" in the literal sense.

I mean, when there's a series of games in the franchise called "Zero", it seems reasonable to do so.

I'm okay for an ALPHA remake but this time with SF3 characters joined with new characters from SF5 and SF4 characters around. 

And also uses ArcSys's graphical methods to look anime as FUCK.

I can't remember the poster, but I remember someone being interested in a prequel era SF game with young/younger version (Oro was still be a fossil) the existing cast. That I'd be fine with.

Not me.  I have just as much problem with "old generation of similar characters meant to replace the characters everyone likes" as much as I do "old generation of similar characters meant to replace the characters everyone likes".

Rare instance of the SF5 theme being better than the SF4 theme.

That Battle Costume is sweet.

Nostalgia Costume doesn't really fit the name.  I know it's an old Midnight Bliss form, but that's not really what the Nostalgia Costumes were.  I guess that's what happens when your actual Nostalgia Costume is just your default.
 

I don't think just having a pair of rabbit ears is a furry by even furrys' standards.

And as much as I like Last Blade, Hibiki still doesn't really fit cause LB takes place, like, 80 years after SamSho does.

SamSho is great. Probably my favorite game released of the last gen. But unless you grew up with that franchise, you'd know F all about it. In the case of SamSho with the For Honor collab, that's just a very strange hail mary. Don't know that it actually moved units or not.

I think in the case of the Arena of Valor character, I wouldn't be surprised if that was a business arrangement.  SNK being part Chinese owned and AoV being a big Chinese game.

I would only consider a guest if they don't baggage a whole lore along the character relationship with other character to somehow also exist in SF and their whole magic system from their franchise doesn't create any conflict the establish world building in SF.

A character is a guest if the continuity of their own game is separate from the continuity of SF.

So far, that's Ingrid and the EX games.

It USED to be Rival Schools, but now Capcom has rolled RS into SF's continuity.

I just don't want a crossover character. I like the fact that Street Fighter is actually Street Fighter and not discount Smash Brother's like every other fighter these days.

100%.  Adding guest characters is just an admission that you don't think people care about your own characters.  Leave the crossover characters for crossover games.

Samurai Shodown's DLC characters have been legit infuriating me.  Surpassed only by DBFZ.

I'm praying the last DLC character is a Street Fighter character.

 

Or Haggar.

Please, God, don't let the last S5 character be a Power Ranger...

That mid-air Shinku Hadoken animation though...comedy gold.

What makes you think they don't? The small roster could just be that's what they could afford.

I would have thought that, if they'd had access to all the FL characters, that FEXL would have...ya know, had some FL characters in it.  Instead of just being a straight put of every SFEX character.

Could someone clarify the rights issues over Fighting Layer characters. Given the situation with Capcom, I'd think they'd Arika property. I'd think their arrangement would Namco would mirror the one they had with Capcom.

Isn't the entire reason the game is called Fighting EX Layer instead of Fighting Layer EX because they don't have the rights to the name "Fighting Layer"?  If they don't own the name, I doubt they own the characters.

I wish Arika could get the rights to it's other Fighting Layer characters back, so it could start adding them to FEXL.

Then they don't know this board very well. We reached out to all of them in the past for a reason. It was because we wanted as @DarthEnderXwould say "everybody here." I miss that dudes sprite posts of like every SF character in existence.

And now I'm here because I think SRK died!

SRK officially dead now hopefully the missing guys will make the jump now. 

I did!
