Jocelot Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 Aww shit, the 'post-evo emptiness' hit me as soon as the credits rolled. FUCK. It came on fast this year. I dunno how pathetic this makes me sound but Evo weekend is literally the happiest I feel all year. Phantom_Miria, Mattatsu, Doctrine_Dark and 5 others 2 6 Quote Link to comment

-PVL93- Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 I'm not enritrly sure Aki translates well into 3d from concept art and her udon comic self. Not in a realistic style anyway. I kinda hope Capcom does an update similar to SFV where you have a selection of shading/filter for the character models Quote Link to comment
delete_me Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 I think she looks excellent in 3D, certain elements like the hair came out very convincingly, particularly when it makes her look through the small gap with only one eye from certain angles. That part is really well executed IMO. What I don't like is that they just copy-pasted Juri's personality for her. That's extremely lame and there are more ways to portray female villains than with this overused "unhinged" thing that's so popular in anime. I was hoping for something more subtle and silently threatening. Oh well, hopefully the gameplay looks cool. Pair of Rooks and Nym 2 Quote Link to comment

She's just FANG with tits + Juri psychotic characterization. Was hoping for more in that regard but hopefully at least her gameplay is cool And because she's a waifu you know Capcom will print all print all kinds of fetish costumes Quote Link to comment

That's not exclusive to Juri. If her dialogue is peppered with sexual innuendo there will be a case for it. I'm hoping she can do theatrics that come off as intimidating rather than goofy.

delete_me Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 Yeah, but you don't see Balrog going off in a high-pitched laugh after punching someone. We haven't seen much of AKI, arguably, but if a modder had replaced her character model with Juri's in this clip I would never have questioned the legitimacy. I would have wondered about the poison but that's about it. I hope the way she's portrayed ingame and during her Supers makes her come across more distinct. -PVL93- 1 Quote Link to comment
CESTUS III Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 AKI surprised me pleasantly I love they did'nt gave her just hot anime girl with white hair, but pushed her aesthetic into albino look with eyebrows and eyelashes... make clear how the FANG poison training put huge stress on her body (getting The Witcher vibes lol), plus that psycho smiling face at 0:41 lol It's nice design detail that while surely she got lot of that poison during her training, she still did'nt had to go through same shit FANG did... her hands did'nt got "mutated", and seems rather than be able to produce poison with her body these little chains on her forearms are soak in it and send it to her artificial claws (wonder if this mean unlike Fang her poison may not be infinite?)... guess either FANG did'nt want to ruin her hands look (he have to conceal his own hands with sleeves) or he invented these metal "gloves" to compensate the fact she did'nt got same amount of years he got to train the poison hand (let alone she may not survive it, survival rate was said to be very tiny) I like also her facial features feeling very chinese, and also her ultra slender builtwith long neck and fluid movements (combined with reptile scales dress) giving her a snake look Could care less about her because would have needed that slot for 99 other things, but i have to admit she's very very well done for what it is Only super small thing that bother me about her is they could have done it without histerical bitch laugh, we got Juri to cover that, would have much prefered her to be just a whispering psychopathic... the part when she explain how poison is going to fuck you up was nice Phantom_Miria and TWINBLADES 2 Quote Link to comment

Well, it's a guttural laugh from him because his voice is deep. It's typically followed by some sort of insult that's usually "chump" related. Quote Link to comment

Vhozite Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 (edited) Is anyone else bothered by the lack of drive reversal at EVO?

Not in a realistic style anyway. I kinda hope Capcom does an update similar to SFV where you have a selection of shading/filter for the character models I think she's translating very well. Her hair somehow looks good even though it's one of those hairdos that always look weird, and she is obviously designed to look off-putting between the white face makeup that leaves her face featureless, small eyes, how lanky she is, and also the fact that she's nuts. The style of SFVI isn't realistic anyway, it's still very anime-inspired stylized with highly detailed character models. Also, I don't think she's necessarily reminding me of Juri. A.K.I. looks like is supposed to be a lot more unstable and unambiguously evil compared to Juri, who kinda goes between being a sadist criminal but also helping the good guys in V. I haven't seen anyone talking about this strangely, but A.K.I. has a big snake theme going. Quote Link to comment
