You think that Power Rangers don't have a fanbase? The cult is there. Ryu and Chun were added recently. That should fix that "problem"

 

Skullgirls has been going for 10 years and still getting support.

Having completed Rose's Arcade ladder, it reminded me of a question I always had about her ending: Is Bison supposed to be dead? Or is he supposed to still be alive, but no longer a threat because his Psycho Power was sealed away?

 

 

I guess sealing his powers away forever could imply she intended to end him altogether. 

 

 

@N-Tactix@Miðgarðsorm

 

Does Rose mention sealing Bison's powers away in the JPN?

Yes, she does. The meaning is the same: it leaves to your imagination whether Bison is already dead or she implies he's not a threat anymore.

Really?  Not sure where that confidence comes from.  They weren't exactly nailing it with the stuff they were actually putting out at that time.  Can't imagine how the shit they actually cancelled would have worked.

There was a lot wrong with Infinite but the 2v2 isn't one of them. The way it works in Infinite is more fluid and chaotic than having standard assists. It was still very Marvel. Not being what you use to don't make it bad

Because it's not the same as 3v3, and the 3v3 is the thing people really like.

Or are we really going to pretend that TvC/MvCI were as popular as MvC2/3/DBFZ?

You just went on about how MvCI had all the same fast paced gameplay as MvC3, but it still bombed to shit.  And you're not gonna convince me all of that was ugly faces and missing X-Men.   Because the gameplay ISN'T the same when it's only 2 characters.

It has nothing to do with popularity. 2v2 is a perfectly adequate system that doesn't heavily impact how anyone would play those games. It's still all about filling the screen with a bunch of shit, insane moment and getting touched means losing a character. 

 

Yes, ugly faces and missing X-men had a lot to do with Infinite bombing. The aesthetics were ugly as fuck, fan favorites of the series were gone because of corporate politics between Marvel and Fox, The cast being heavily recycled from MvC3 with a larger MCU emphasis, story mode being trash, graphically looking like a budget title, having already finished characters as DLC (looking at you Sigma, Black Panther and Monster Hunter). The game has a load of issues that cause it to bomb that had nothing to do with it being 2v2. It's actual gameplay is one of the few things the games actually get praises for. 

[Darc_Requiem]

Popularity? If that's what you care about then MK is your game, I really don't give a damn about popularity. I was playing SF3 before it was cool. Never been the type to care what other games people. For me TvC was better than MvC3. I barely knew any of the cast and I had blast playing it. I knew who everyone was on the MvC3 roster, didn't make it a more entertaining experience. 

[Shakunetsu]

Capcom right now is in a very tough position now that everything that is crazy in MVC2 and MVCi had been implemented in DBFZ and they cannot compete directly from gameplay, popularity and graphics. It's like DBFZ is trying to nab the spot entirely and directly.

 

It's now like trying to be an MVC2 without the buggy stuff like the snapback combos or the need to implement a ratio system and have the need to have a low tier separate game.

 

Graphics standard is impossible for Capcom to compete with Arcsys technology, Yet I prefer them to have anime style because of flexibility but I'm not expecting them to go full-on like Arcsys because they won't dedicate more resources and time to the fighting games which is the least profitable IP in Capcom.

 

Arcsys is along SNK that their flagship IPs are fighting games while Capcom isn't. So this companies had all their resources focus on making their flagship IPs in the better position of all things they own.

There's literally no reason Capcom can't do the exact same thing as ArcSys with the graphics.  They just keep choosing not to.

It's not like it's a trade secret.  ArcSys has given entire presentations showing exactly how they do the Xrd thing.

Why go with the "adequate" system when you can just use the one most people prefer?

17 hours ago, Hawkingbird said:

Yes, ugly faces and missing X-men had a lot to do with Infinite bombing.

And so was only being 2v2.

 

We're going in circles here, but the bottom line is this:
Capcom Vs. Capcom games failed in the past, not because of a lack of Marvel/SNK/Tatsunoko, but because they lacked the mechanics Capcom Vs. fans loved(i.e. MvC2/3, the two most popular games in the series).  And until Capcom actually produces a CvC game with MvC2/3 mechanics, it's stupid to assume that the concept wouldn't work.

 

Edited August 14, 2021 by DarthEnderX

[Hawkingbird]

You're projecting your own dislikes as the general consensus because if you actually engaged in the disclosure when it came to Infinite you'll know that 2v2 wasn't a major issue people had with that game.  We can ask someone like @Psychobluewho runs Infinite events if you want a more in-depth reason as to why Infinite didn't catch on.

 

There's also no real demand for a capcom vs capcom. If you look at FGC circles you'll see there's a push to get another MvC2 re-release. Look at #freemvc2.

Absolute horseshit!  Maximillian is pretty much the face of #freemvc2, and he is ALSO a vocal proponent of Capcom making a CvC game.  Many of the fighting game youtube channels and podcasters want CvC, as the community is generally sick of the Vs. games having limited support/getting delisted due to their licensing deals.

You trying to present that as an either/or situation is straight asinine.  And fuck off with your "you're projecting your own dislikes as the general consensus" when you do that exact thing one sentence later.

Maximilion Dood obviously.  WoolieVersus of Getting Into Fighting Games.  Both are vocal supporters of it.  And the comments of pretty much any Eventhubs article on the subject have plenty of people that do as well.  That's just off the top of my head.

Yes there is a presentation, but it wasn't how the backend develop, Yeah they could also possibly do that if they tried too

 

And I do agree that they keep on choosing not to because it's cheap and won't cause them a lot of time. It's about convenience, priority and time not preference.

 

What I mean of being impossible is about the resources and effort the fighting game division is allowed to wiggle into by the higher ups.

Akuma continuing to have the lamest quotes in this game.

 

Thank you for getting this. I take it that you’re getting from the arcade mode right now?

[Doctrine_Dark]

Yes, I am. Unfortunately Oro only has a default win quote, so I couldn't get any for him.

 

Kolin to Oro: "Your one or two hundred years mean nothing compared to another I know."

 

Oro to M. Bison: “Psycho Power, eh? Impressive, but the way you wield it leaves much to be desired.”

M. Bison to Oro: “Some legend you are! Pathetic!”

 

Oro to Rose: “Look too far ahead and you may miss your very first step.”

Rose to Oro: “I may need your guidance again when the time comes, Master Oro.”

 

Oro to Dan: “Hahaha! You are a barrel of laughs! I wouldn’t say you’re good, but you’re certainly amusing!”

Dan to Oro: “Senjutsu’s got nothin’ on Dan-Jutsu! And by that, I mean Saikyo-Style!”

 

Oro to Honda: “You’re quite agile, jumping and bouncing around like that. Sumo wrestling seems fun!”

Honda to Oro: “You really know how to throw your weight around! And I know a thing or two about that!”

 

Oro to Kage: “I do not feat death. It is an old friend of mine.”

Kage to Oro: “Bwahaha! Death’s finger is reaching out to touch you!”

 

Oro to G: “I don’t know who you are, but you appear to be the manifestation of a natural disaster.”

G to Oro: “I know I can count on your support, as I represent all people of Earth! That includes senior citizens like you!”

 

Oro to Falke: “Hmm..So Bison is to blame for this. Fear not, child. You’ll be just fine.”

Falke to Oro: “Don’t worry about it. It’s fine.”

 

Oro to Sakura: “You’re a student of Ryu’s, you say? I suppose that makes you my grandstudent!”

Sakura to Oro: “Wait, you’re Ryu’s master now?! No way. Nah, I don’t believe it. You can’t be. Nope, nope, nope.”

 

Oro to Menat: “So, what does your crystal ball say about my fortune today? I’m no doubt a lucky man! Oho!

Menat to Oro: “Master said that there is much about you she has yet to see.”

 

Oro to Ed: “You’ve picked up some bad habits, and don’t know how to properly wield your power.”

Ed to Oro: “No mercy, even for a geezer like you! Now get the hell outta my face!”

 

Oro to Juri: “You actually intended to harm an old man like me? That’s a scary thought! Ohoho!”

Juri to Oro: “Next time, I’ll make it so you can’t use either arm, gramps!”

 

Oro to Akuma: “I have surpassed you, and it will take more than a hundred years for you to catch up.”

Akuma to Oro: “Weak!”

 

Oro to Alex: “You’re rough around the edges, but you have potential. See me in twenty years and I’ll train you.”

Alex to Oro: “You’re past your prime, old man.”

 

Oro to Ibuki: “Of course Senjutsu seems similar to ninjutsu—the former gave birth to the latter! Oho ho!”

Ibuki to Oro: “Hey, you look a lot like someone I saw in my ninja academy textbook...”

 

Oro to Rashid: “Rashid of the Turbulent Wind, eh? I would you’re more of “the Light Breeze.”

Rashid to Oro: “what’s “Senjutsu”? Is it trending? I bet it gets mad views on streams!”

 

Oro to Laura: “Judo is all about the hips. You have to move them like THIS and THIS! Are you watching?”

Laura to Oro: “That Senjutsu thing you got goin’ on is sweet! You gotta teach me your old-man moves!”

 

Oro to R. Mika: “If I were a pro wrestler, I think I’d be a crowd-pleasing baby face, don’t you?”

R. Mika to Oro: “I’ve gotta learn to throw people with one arm, too!”

 

Oro to Zangief: “You do have some impressive musculature. I’m quite proud of my calf muscles. Look!”

Zangief to Oro: “You have good skill, tiny man. But no strength! Gahaha!”

 

Oro to Chun-Li: “So you pursue Bison, too...He certainly commands a lot of hate, doesn’t he?”

Chun-Li to Oro: “I fight for justice and to protect those I care about.”

 

Oro to Karin: “Ah, to be young and naive and concerned with things like nobility...”

Karin to Oro: “No wise person would try to best a Kanzuki one-handed.”

 

Oro to Nash: “You seek vengeance, eh? I won’t stop you, but I won’t commend you either.”

Nash to Oro: “Wish I could’ve grown old in peace, like you...”

 

 

Oro to Ryu: “Now then, as promised, you will become my student. Hm? You didn’t promise me that?”

Edited August 16, 2021 by Doctrine_Dark

[Chun-Li_Forever]

Chun-Li to Oro: "I fight for justice and to protect those I care about."

 

Sounds like standard Chun-Li introduction to Oro. Not sure if in canon Chun-Li actually meets the hermit. And if she did, would they have meet in SFV or in SFIII? If they did, I feel this is a good introduction to him on who she is and what she fights for. Nothing much to establish any relationships if any should come moving forward. But all in all, it's a safe win quote that stays true to her.

 

Oro to Chun-Li:" So you pursue Bison, too… He certainly commands a lot of hate, doesn’t he?"

 

Same as above, though this would be more along the lines of them meeting in the SFV lore because supposedly Shadaloo doesn't exist in SFIII. I feel that you can have both win quotes both Chun's and Oro's work as both as an introduction and a follow up introduction. Oro understands Chun's true enemy and why her emotions drive her to fight for justice. Pretty safe and believable quote if they were to meet. So it's good in my opinion.

 

 

 

Chun-Li to Akira: You have strong fighter instincts. How about training with me?

 

I feel this is where Chun-Li is showing more of her teacher side that comes into development in SFIII. Akira is much younger, and Chun-Li certainly has more experience under her belt. But she sees potential in the young fighter, and just like the win-quotes from Karin, Chun-Li's experience and training would only help Akira grow as a fighter. I like this quote. The last two have been pretty good with keeping Chun-Li's character true.

 

Akira to Chun-Li: Finally, I got to go up against a real Kung Fu fighter. I feel like I’ve learned a lot.

 

Same as above. A respectful notion between a young fighter and an experienced veteran. I feel some of Akira's kata's give off some stylizations of kung fu, so I believe Akira learning from Chun-Li would be such an honor for her.

 

 

 

(I'm pretty sad that Luke is the last time I get to overanalyze Chun-Li's win quotes. But it's been super fun all throughout!)

Oro to Gill: “I think you should focus on your wardrobe choices before trying to bring about paradise..”

Bold words from the guy who used to flash his dick in Third Strike.

 

Or maybe wise words: he's suggesting Gill to go all in and ditch the thong for good if that's the look he's going for.

Menat is likely talking about the events of Rival Schools' sequel: Project Justice. Akira gets transferred to an all-girl school  and her trying to settle in and her friend being the antagonist's sister is one of the key plot points. Daigo also undergoes a change very reminiscent of SnH in that game. 

[Scotia]

I've barely played Rival Schools so forgive me if this is a relatively obvious answer but;

Who is being referenced here? I've never heard of anyone from Rival Schools being fans of Ken and Alex.

Edge and Gan are the only characters that makes sense. The Masters Online Course is a running joke that started in Project X Zone where Ken advertises the Online Program much to Ryu's chagrin.

Hinata (main girl) takes Ken's online class. Just like Sakura she's a prodigy so she instantly learns Masters Karate and becomes a strong fighter despite having no martial arts background.

was kinda already in PSX special disk Nekketsu Seisyun Nikki 2

 

• Hinata had mastered martial arts from Ken Masters' online fighting school.^[4]
  • However, it's made clear in Nekketsu Seisyun Nikki 2 that the Masters style does not teach specific ways to embed flames into the attacks, instead it's something Hinata learned through her own talent.

Hideo has no ties to Ken canonically, he uses Shimazu style Karate. Batsu mentions Hideo in his winquote versus Ryu in TvC.

 

Hinata is the one who took Ken's online class she even has a fire tatsu.

It's seems to refer to her story ending. She ends up a girls only party at Kanzuki Beach.

Yeah, but Oro himself throws rocks around during V-Trigger II, hence my reaction.

Oh right. I somehow forgot about that. Guess it’s different when you use telekinetic powers as opposed to just batting them.

[Darc_Requiem]

Anyone know how accurate the general story translations are for Akira and Oro?

[Dragonfave723]

Apparently, voice actors for Ibuki has been recast in both languages.

 

[Doctrine_Dark]

Oro to Balrog: "Your punches lack strength. Perhaps you should put some more effort into your training."

Balrog to Oro: I don't care if you're old or only usin' one arm. You ain't gettin' mercy from me!"

 

Thanks for the catch @BornWinner I was dead tired. Surprised I ain't miss more.

 

Edit: I meant @Phantom_MiriaThe avatars threw me off.

Still must be tired since it was @Phantom_Miriathat pointed it out. 
 

Thank you for all of your work though! It always nice to see the quotes here after a character is released.
