Xiba Non-Gameplay Discussion Thread

I hate how some unreasonably popular person/thing uses something that has been around for ages and when someone else uses it they immediately associate it with that lame shit.

Ex Xiba: hairstyle=Roxas Kingdom Hearts. Not to mention that Twilight BS with Raph and Zwei
 
People can have muscle before 18 LOL
I was in full training (kickboxing and gym) from 14 to 20 and at 16-17 i was more broad build than i'm today
The dude is supposed to be somebody that train all days since child,he's a fighter not some pussy anime boy

Stop your crusade against being badass,lol :D

Yes but normally, a person who is 16 is no where near as muscular as a person in their absolute physical prime, around 20 - late twenties early thirties.

I think that not every character in this game needs to be badass, and don't bring up Z.W.E.I because while he doesn't reflect it in his 3d render its what they are going for in both of his concept arts.

The women in soul calibur need to be injected with a little bit of the bad ass that this dudes biceps got, see hilde for a decent fighting game woman, and SOME of the men should be toned down to make it a bit more realisic. Not everyone in wars back then was in tip top shape, some skinnies and fatties went to war as well. Don't see why all girls must be hookers, or five, and men must all look over twenty and have the muscles of an Olympic athlete and thor.
 
The dude at right is Frank Mir 6'3 (191 cm) 260 lbs (118kg) the dude on the left got 17 years :D

Now whine about Xiba being too much big for a 16 years old

note I said normally, not always, but still... Really?.... why does every male in the video game universe have to have the body of a god...

Yes, but normally, a person don't train to fight for his entire life
SC is about fighters,not common people
If you train all days and you're "height: 164cm weight 59kg" with no fat you're like that or probably even more built :D
 
well I guess he shouldn't look like this, given that he was raised in a monastery. all these martial artists usually end up looking very lean and ripped, especially asians who are predetermined to be lean most of the time as opposed to the people gatsu posted.
 
His 2D looks fantastic, reminds me of Goku kinda or an asian Luffy kida.
His 3D is okay. His hair needs some fluffing up though. His skin is pretty pale and his body doesn't match, he looks like a kid.
I am a kilik fan I hope Xiba will be more faster than Kilik was in SCIV. He has that ugly ass Justin Bieber look to him but it'll pay off. Xiba and Lexia gone hit it off sooner or later.....
His art doen't. His Render does, the hair is too compacted and a little stiff looking.
So, its Ok for girls to look masculine (Ivy)...
Who said that wasn't a problem? IVy was created to BE sexy. All of a sudden, she turned tranny.

I'm inclined to agree with this. Although I don't think we should try to use what people actually looked like during the time period as a reference for realism. Nothing in SC is like it was in the past (SC gives the impression that shirts didn't exist in the 1500s).

Anyways, now I want to know why Xiba likes eating while balancing on his staff.

1- Bingo,is about artist style. Plus there more ridicolous examples(see Yunsung on steroids,lol),is strange people get mad for two muscle instead complain about the orange faggy wig :D

2- so dogs can't steal his chicken :D

well no I agree with the general opinion on his hair, but I think that it will be revised just as pats was.

however I think he is merging a little to much with the all muscle all the time deal. seriously he is young it is the PERFECT excuse to break that stereo type...
 
The size isn't a problem (only in TV land are teenagers short, height is actually at its peak then), it's that the rest of the body doesn't fit with it (shoulders)
