Shotos are the most popular SF archetype hands down! At this point if your hero is NOT a Shoto, you've already lost half the battle in the hearts of casuals. Let's be real!!

 

 

 

 

Yup! SF has the shotos and MK has the ninjas!!!

Ninjas are an aesthetic only.

Shotos are a gameplay archetype (but also can be an aesthetic). 

Many fighters since SF have tried to include Shotos in their rosters with varying degrees of success.

Long combos can suck my nuts still. Nobody got time for half of them.

I like long-ish combos, but only if there is something somewhat unique going on.

 

A combo being long because it’s a jump in corner starter dumping full resources is ok. Urien doing headbutt loops into a half a dozen mirror juggles is corny.

One thing I love about fem-Seth in SFV is that his V-Skill one gives him unique combos against every character, so even if his combos are long you’re at least possibly seeing something different.

Long combos usually take skill, dexterity, and good memorization and concentration, that's why I love long combos. In games like sf a long combo is what 5 hits? But yea sf isn't about combos it's more footsie related so I understand.

Looks like the big tournament near me will be running SF6 on PS5 version so time to get a PS5 pcb.

 

I was either going to mod the Brook ufb board I have with one of these https://www.brookaccessory.com/detail/12408031/

or

I'm going to hold out on one of those converters.

I wonder when they come out.

Yea but that's not the norm in sf, in sf5 yea you can go ham with some characters and vtriggers but it's still not a heavy combo game in nature.

Nah, I love cinematic supers. I do think the SF6 supers are an ideal length. The Supers look really good or def show the personality and flair of the fighters without it feeling too long. Some of the anime ones though can be a little too long.

[HeavensCloud]

I like longish combos but yeah too long and things can get annoying for the opponent.  Street Fighter Alpha 3 pushed it to the max in terms of combos and while I love that game, the infinites are obviously dumb.  Blazblue and anime games  which involve 30 hit juggles are not for me.  

 

And cinematic supers have never bothered me.  They happen rarely enough to be bothersome, and I think ultimate attacks deserve a nice cutscene.

Hate or not hate i ain't cappin'. 

 

While SF 6 does a lot of things good, the music direction is clearly not one of them in my opinion. I don't think there is a single track that i would like to listen to like i sometimes do with the older songs.

 

I definitely respect the devs for trying something new,but this ain't it. 

 

Hard pass on Gief's theme as well.

There had to be one thing SFV does better than 6.  Turns out it's music.  

 

I wish they went more in the direction of Tekken style music.  Tekken soundtrack has so many bangers.  

Edited April 7, 2023 by HeavensCloud

[Vhozite]

Yeah SF6’s music is not it so far. Rest of the game seems superb so of course I can overlook something like that. 
 

Strange since Capcom games usually knock it out of the park with music.

Edited April 7, 2023 by Vhozite

[Daemos]

If we’re lucky we’ll a change in music direction when the game is repackaged as SSF6 in 2.5 years. But yeah it’s so bad that Zangief’s new theme sounds good in comparison to most of the rest.

 

SF5’s music much stronger and impactful. The electric guitars just stay with your soul long after.

I think this is the worst character theme i listened for SF6 so far 😩

 

 

[ToreyBeans]

I dunno... I love the music from SFV (and the entire series as a whole)  just as much as next person, but I don't need classic tracks to enjoy the SF6 music. The hip hop influence I think is par for the game and the musical production value is actually pretty high, especially listening with my ear buds. Zangief's new theme feels very much like something I'd expect in a post SF3 world: hip hop beats, with a house sound all while having that Eastern European sound. I danced to it and it's a fun theme. I feel like all the returning characters definitely have great themes that fit each character differently. Terayama-san and company knows how to make every theme work.

 

As I've said before, we're likely getting classic remixed themes. The development team is looking to please everyone, so hopefully those themes will be packaged with the classic costumes. If not, maybe the themes will grow on some of y'all....? 

 

Decided to post the playlist so no one gets left behind lol

Tbh can't pick a worse one

 

Imho while i'm not a fan of SF6 music, it have some nice ones, but this Zangief one to me is straight bad

 

After listening them some times i like

It's not my story to tell, but yes he has said a lot of things to a lot of people. No respect for boundaries.

SF6 soundtrack is aggressively mid. Wild to me how they struck gold with Ryu and Jamie themes and it's all been downhill from there 

 

Even stranger how half of the themes can be fixed by changing the speed from normal to x1.25 or x1.5 

 

But regardless you can bet Capcom will add/sell classic ost packs and pc mods with will do their job even faster

It is going to be a busy year for fighting games. Between SF6, MK12, Granblue Rising, potentially Tekken 8 AND season 3 of Strive, the later half of this year will be wild.

The only thing MK games kill is their player base every 2 years.

Is there any actual evidence MK12 is coming? 11 came out only 4 years ago and was still supported 2 years ago. How long does it take them to make games?

David Zaslov, the CEO of Warner Discovery, casually  revealed MK12 on their last earnings call. Which caught everyone, Ed Boon included, off guard. Boon kept teasing whether the next game would be Injustice or MK. Zaslov just yanked the rug out from under him. Since Zaslov is the boss, there really isn't anything Netherrealm can do or say about it.

That was such a fucking bitch thing to do to Boon and his fanbase. Regardless of how I feel about the games, Ed Boon definitely cares a lot about his fans. Having the wind taking out of all the tongue-in-cheek nonsense that goes on in twitter to hype up the next game is bullshit.

 

Even more so when he made it fairly obvious that they wanted to support MK11 for longer but weren't allowed to.

 

Man...fuck all that.

[Vhozite]

Ah I see thanks. It’s a shame Boon got played like that. 
 

Knowing that I’m not sure how excited I am for MK12. I liked 11 much better than X, but there so many weird decisions over the course of the game that ended up pushing me away. Idk I’m at least curious.

[Shakunetsu]

Are you guys okay for SF character guesting in MK but not vice versa? Like Akuma, Mecha Zangief or Bison in MK?

I can honestly say I enjoyed NRS' MK 'trilogy' a lot. I played a lot of MK9, X and 11 and I think overall as a fighting game I liked MK11 the most.

 

MKX was the most hype but also the most bullshit. So many weird interactions and setplay situations that left you in situations that you literally had to guess, and a lot of it was just baked into the game. Like Erron Black's infamous 21122 string or literally anything Alien did.

 

I appreciate MK11 for trying to make a more "honest" game with less 50/50 situations and less juggles that do half your health into another unavoidable mixup. If anything I think MK11 went to far in the other direction and gave the player too many options when under pressure, it made it hard to mindfuck an opponent you had against the ropes. 

 

I hope MK12 carries on with the MK11 mindset, but just finds a better balance.

[TWINBLADES]

MK isn’t killing 6 MK has and will always be ass. I only tolerate it because it is a fighting game unlike smash.

I'm not okay with guest characters period. MK has an expansive universe with tons of characters. There are characters that haven't been in MK game in decades. Yet they keep wasting slots on guests. How about they make Mortal Kombat that has....wait for it...Mortal Kombat characters. Guest characters are the equivalent of a "cheap pop" in pro wrestling at this point.
