why? this should be obvious as this was the biggest criticism SCV got from both critics and fans. SCV was really the only one that didn't really have a strong story mode.

also this guy has a really good track record for being rightso i trust him

But fighting games shouldn’t be too focused on story. Yes it was a bit of an issue in SCV for those who follow the lore but the game still played fine. And that is what I myself am worried about if they choose to do this. If they put too much work in the story mode there is a chance it could hurt the rest of the game.(And no I’m not saying story is a bad thing in a fighting game at all but it doesn’t need to have a heavy emphasis on it).

I’d rather play a fighting game with a weak story but solid gameplay than a fighting game with a decent story but mediocre gameplay.

While its funny to the majority of us, there has to be consideration of the political sjw nonsense that is attempting to hijack our society and culture.

Ivy in SC5 was more covered up than SC4, but then again certain people will complain just for the sake of complaining.
Bloggers posing as credible game reviewers would take advantage of this to act offended in order to virtue signal.

The hypocrisy would be keeping Voldo as he is, but Ivy is deemed too offensive now. They have a sexualized dichotomy that makes them both stand out and are both equally S&M references in the series and iconic at this point because of it. We can only hope they embrace that both are what they are rather than trying to shy away from it now, as to not offend people with Ivy especially.

(I'm not confirming either of them by saying this by the way, in case you wanted to look too far into it. Just conversing and adding to the conversation.)

I probably shouldn't be saying this, so I'm going to try to do it without doing it. The highlighted names and suspected FE character are being done for a reason. The character was boiled down to being one character by the source that suspected it is one. Focus on the bolded. You should be able to put together what I am getting at without any question of what I'm getting at.

Like Party Wolf said, a great deal of the information I can't share boils down to a select few at the moment that would know that information since they have been keeping the game under pretty tight wraps, all things considered up to this point.
I am only sharing the information that the sources feel are not "harmful" and can't be traced back to the certain group that would most likely know right now and be blamed for sharing it.
I said it already, but I wish I could share more. But this is a specific case where I simply can't yet until I have been given the clear and it not be as easily linked to a certain group that would know those things and have released it before it would have even gotten a chance to get out.

I see, thank you for the reply. If we get the fated reveal next month then I'll definitely be excited for "what you shouldn't reveal" lol. Thanks for bringing this to us anyway, if nothing else it's getting people talking about Calibur again.

Was that a joke? SC4 was unplayable, as in you couldn't block basic lows or break throws.

@Vergeben thanks for the leaks, I dunno if you can answer this but do you know how far along they are in development and when they plan on releasing SC6?

Well you are talking to someone who thinks sc4 is the worst of them all anyway even without taking online into consideration.
But compared to sc2 hd online its ok.

Now I'm back to leaning towards the guy talking complete nonsense. He's got one guy who told him about SC6. And then another guy who told him about SC6 on Switch and saying Link is the guest character. And then yet another guy who talked to him about SC6 who says a Fire Emblem character is the guest character. And despite the fact he's leaking all of this information (which is spreading to some big sites), some of these guys are still revealing new details to him.

If these people are legitimately leaking stuff to him, it's pretty weird they won't say with 100% certainty if the game will be at one of these shows. Companies make deals to show specific games at these shows months in advance.

This is probably just Geoff Keighley being bored one night writing silly stuff on an alternate account.

any word if Hwang will return as a playable character?
 
Let me break it down:
SC5 - best fighting system and online, best competitive SC, also has best CAS, but ultimately lacks content which created huge backlash
SC3 - best in terms of amount of content, killed by amout of bugs which fucked up fighting system, introduced CAS and still has the most armor pieces in the series
SC2 - most balanced SC (in terms of casual - competitive content), which makes it the favourite among lots of people
SE - the beginning, pretty fun game that created a basement for future of series. Also best intro.
SC1 - first true SC, from which series evolved further
SC4 - worst game in the series that excells at nothing
SC5>SC2>SC3>SC>SE>SC4
Fite me.
