mykka

I think its popularity is inflated online cause of several prominent streamers in the FGC like Max and Aris

From what I've found Manon is quite common in France these days. At least when I searched for the name, I found out its been consistently in the top10 most used female names for newborns in France for the past several years now

I doubt it. Ibuki was one of the best selling DLC's.

I dont think they care for these lists at all. They brought back Rashid and he's bottom 4, and they brought back Dee Jay, who was ranked pretty low in the character poll list from a few years ago (several WW too but we'll ignore those).

Judging by the character usage results, she's played more than several SF2 characters

I wonder if everyone will have a direct rival in this game?

People said MvC:I netcode was good, so we'll see.

I think Makoto, Sean and Ibuki will be DLC. Not sure they'll bring back the twins or Elena.

Just noticed the trailer on Playstation channel has over 1 million views, only the reveal of RE4 has surpassed it. The hype is real

The big feet are gone, so it makes her thighs seem even more out of balance. I think she needs more muscle definition, tone her up like she was in SFV

Apparently that guy who said 24 chars with Rose in the base was just assuming the italian character leaked was Rose. And his justification for 24 was because SF4 console version launched with that many characters, so he was clearly taking other legit leaks and making stuff up adding to it.

@DarthEnderXthat leaker was just copying what he saw elsewhere. The real leak actually did mention all the 7 newcomers, no elderly man mentioned.

Not if she's fighting the patriarchy

Out of all the newcomers, I'm interested in AKI and Lily the most. JP looks amazing too, but I'm not so sure he'll play that interesting. How many times can you reinvent psycho power?

I'm wondering how they will write Juri in SF6, she went from a villain, to a sort of anti-hero character, I wonder if she'll evolve further. Maybe that's why they're bringing in another female villain (AKI) since Juri is retiring lol, and Kolin isnt back.

MK11 was definitely explicit in its toning down, although MK was always more sexualized cause it was seen as SF's more "mature" for "adults only" fighting game. And a game so mainstream these days, where society's perception towards sexualized characters has definitely shifted, plus them being a western company, they were bound to fold. I dont think SF is anywhere near that level of censorship, if anything I think they just want more money to sell the sexy costumes as DLC. However I still think censoring Mika's super was dumb, she wasnt being sexual with her slap, it was just cheeky, no pun intended. One thing I do appreciate about SFV is they made the female sexy, while bringing out the muscle definition. I'm a bit disappointed with Chun, her definition seems to be gone in-game, hopefully they will tone her up. As for Ian, well I think he's just spewing out whatever the activists tell him to. I really had no idea there was this division between blacks from Africa and blacks from USA until I read the so called "diversity manager" on RE talking about how Kimberly is the first Black female in SF, but not the first black female. Apparently if you capitalize Black it means you're black from America. I swear these people keep inventing new stuff and lingo and expect the rest of us to keep up with their insane rules. No, Kimberly isn't the first black female in SF, period. That's just insulting to black africans, who share your skin color. Yes your experiences are different from a black american, but the same can be said for white americans and white europeans, etc. Just seems silly to me. More unecessary tribalism and division.

I think people wouldn't be so quick to criticize the pants option if Capcom hadn't gone through censoring her in SFV along with R.Mika's super. I feel like that has made people a bit more cautious about certain design alterations, as small as they seem, and when they see changes like a character being more covered up all of a sudden, or her breasts are smaller all of a sudden, they immediately think something else is going on. I have too much real life issues to be outraged by this stuff, but I can definitely agree that there is behind the scens pressure on certain design alterations. Personally, if I were to be outraged about Cammy's new default, it's that haircut. Wrong on every level girl.

So dumb. But at least that one looks fake. The Menat one that's all blurry actually looked legit to me.

So stupid that they would fake leaks. I mean post your artwork, but trying to pass it as a leak that has been legitimized is annoying.
