Character Roster is culturally uneven

As men in this day in age, we must sleep around to learn how to walk. It's our genetic and civil duty.

Sleeping around is something I can't tolerate. It's a cool childish fantasy every foolish guy dreams about, yet I won't bring myself to do that. Why would I want to sleep with ladies I'll never meet again? Or why make create unnecessary drama and/or inherit a bad disease?

In the long run, my definition of a real man is one who holds himself accountable for what he does. Sleeping around imho isn't ideal, and if one doesn't know why there's the bible. We weren't built to just have sex with everything. Being a single bachelor for a long period of time just seems.....lonely.

Eventually, I'd want to settle down when I finally feel it's time to. Until then, I ought to keep it clean and find my precious other half. Not until I stabilize myself though haha.

You sure are using complacent wrong. Complacent would be not to change things like remaining a noob/scrub in SCV.

If you really want to know who is complacent, it's you my fickle and petty friend. You think it's okay to be butthurt over something silly like "not include a black dude in SC series". I'll be totally honest, if they suddenly put Zas back in the game, you'd probably chirp happily like some of my ignorant acquaintances I know.

Sorry if I'm jabbing you, but I'm no beat around bush and petty person. I'm someone who prefers to be straight up and get to know you flaws and all. If you can't handle that, then why waste both our time?

I hold myself accountable, sleeping around doesn't change that. If anything, it's the best way to hold yourself accountable. You want to meet the "one" and settle down. How are you going to do that without experience? Whether the ultimate goal is to find someone to settle with or is to find more. Hitting on women, having sex, dealing with women, knowing what you like, this all comes from experience. I feel like you'll be doing yourself a disfavor by not upping your knowledge game. What if you find a girl you have a big crush on but don't know how to talk to her? It's kind of like soul calibur, you need to lose a few times before you learn how to win. Practice makes perfect.

Now if a girl didn't like how I did sex with her in marriage when it was purely love yet lust on her end, it's a lose lose situation. I know I'll run into bumps, but I refuse to fornicate until marriage. That just tarnishes the relationship. By allowing myself to allow it before hand just wouldn't sit well with me.

That's why I have to pray a lot, be me, and work hard at it. I know I may not get what I want, but I want lady who is genuine in looks and personality. By taking sex out of there, it's a test for both of us. Do I genuinely love her? Does she love me genuinely? Stuff like that.

I agree I need to go through hardship to get what I want, but I won't fornicate.

So your definition of love dismisses sex? Without sex within the definition, love is pretty much a-sexual. Meaning your definition of love should fit with anyone, not just women. If you say you are attracted to a girl and want to have sex with her. Whether you have it or not, sex will still be included within the relationship. Since it will dictate your actions. By choosing not to have sex when you want it, you are ultimately giving sex more power than it would normally have. Which can be a perversion in itself. If you fantasize about sex, you might as well have it. Unless that withdrawal of what you want is somehow strengthening your bond with god. And if it is, I still don't agree with it. And since this is now a religious issue also. If you want me to stop talking about it I'll politely drop it. But you seem like a smart and chill dude so I don't think I'm offending you.

Pocky Yoshi I think is the ONLY person on the internet who actually admits they're a virgin, and gives reasoning for why it's a morale choice. =]

I read Pocky's post and I was like "WTF?! This guy is defying all internet stereotypes that internet people say!" It's usually all about some chubby 12 year old explaining the "game" of how to seduce women and how to play CoD while having sex! xD

But in all honesty I agree with Pocky, the only thing in life you can really cherish truly is your relationship with your family and a loving mate. If you go through life with this mindset that all you derive from life is rolling around in bed with an attractive stranger receiving pleasure, then it's an eventual empty feeling.... Someone you actually care about gives you happiness, not just timely pleasure...

Are you saying someone can't truly cherish sleeping around? Meeting new people is the spice of life. Experiencing new things. The average person doesn't go to the same place every year for vacation. Or eat the same meal everyday. So why sleep with the same woman for the rest of your life? Also, most people who try looking for the "one" end up divorcing 3 times. Divorce rate in America is crazy high.
 
My biggest gripe was the change of tone in comparison to past games:

SB-SCIV: Historical/fantasy setting with numerous cultures all across the world represented, with some anime influence.

SCV: Generic shonen anime up the ass.

Please, the shit is started with SC4
SCV compared to SC4 got some things worse and some better, overall i can even say it's slighty better
SC4 got star wars horrible shit, Star wars stage, many ridicolous bad chara designs to push on teh fantasy button or westernize shit
SCV got horrible cast, horrible cast and horrible cast

Artistically the last true SC (and probably the best under that pov) is SC3
SC3>SC1>SE/SC2>>>>>>>>>>>>>SC4/SCV

I truly want believe in Hoshino, but honestly more than the director a lot depend on what perception they have of SC audience
And if i must think what kind of audience have SC.... well RIP true SC

Or maybe Hoshino will surprize me and show to have steel bowling-size balls like Ono did with SF

The Series has only dropped 3 cultures, Middle east (Kinda), Native American and Fillipino. The statement I made is true, unless you count Korean as different culture than China or Japan, despite the large similarities. If that was done however, one could draw lines between Spain and England as completely different cultures, despite their Large similarities. The only way there could ever be true world representation, is to include every single culture the world currently has, all 250+ of them. I would talk about How shitty and Generic Mitsu, Slutsuka, Xianghua and Talim are, But thinking or even hearing anything about Talim pisses me the fuck off.

If you've ever been to Japan or China. You would know how stupid that statement is. Same with the Spanish being the same as English thing. There are huge distinct differences. You act like they speak the same language, listen to the same music, eat the same food, and have the same customs. Genetically you could say these cultures are extremely similar since it's true. Culturally, well............. I'm not sure why anyone would say that. You need to stay in school.......
 
I'm slightly confused as to why people think that Spanish and English cultures are similar? :):):)

Also why should there be such a drama about where characters are from? Characters are characters and that's that, do you honestly think that PS think "Oh, let's not include _______ culture because we want to be racist"?

Well you acted like SC5 didn't add anything. Ezio is a much more culturally rich bonus character than the Star Wars characters.

I was referring to the games' feel. I was saying that SE-SCIV had a feeling of a historic/fantasy blend with some anime elements incorporated while SCV felt like a generic shonen anime world.

SC5 feels more anime? Care to elaborate? Because I'm having a hard time seeing that.
 
I really don't see why people hated the art in Soul Calibur IV, the Gothic and gloomy feeling was a nice set, considering everyone was an walking tragedy....well everyone but Mitsu and Algol....well Algol was but I dislike him.
