This has probably already been brought up but the game looks pretty polished. Considering we already got gameplay footage, how long do you think the wait will be? August 2018 seems likely to me. But also, we have no idea how much more work they need to do.

I could see them going for holiday sales with a long promo cycle revealing a lot of characters throughout the year. Considering that there’s a pretty good looking UI in place and there seem to be three characters ready to show off (one we still haven’t seen), I wouldn’t be shocked if they launched a little before holiday season.

Yeah Q4 is possible i think as well, though i think they'll try to avoid the end of the year, many games in the past suffered with low sales cause they put their release amoung the Fifa/COD/BF, September maybe, but i hope it will be before.
 
I don't know about you, but one of the stages I'm most looking forward to and hoping to see recreated is Voldo's Money Pit stage.

And I personally heard late 2018/early 2019 was when it would release as I said before. But we'll see. The aversion Okubo had to saying a release date means he knows it still has a ways away to do everything that they aim to with it. So I hope they don't rush it out. They can get by on that DBFZ money from the sales that's gonna have for instance to hold them over and not feel pressured to put SCVI out earlier than they should.
In general, Bandai Namco is a lot stronger financially than they were when SCV was made and didn't have a natural disaster throw development and resources for a loop to throw a game together in only a year. They've been working on SCVI for longer than Okubo said, but the development hell delay happened and shifted around some of the leadership for the game.

I'm actually not.... this time.
 
To quickly touch back on the stage thing, in particular recreating The Money Pit.... I hope they combine aspects of both SC1 and SCII versions for the stage visually.
Depending on if they made it a tiered stage (which they should) they could use SCII's Ordinary Pain for the top level.
And SC1's Sweet Illusion (which is just a more dramatic version of Remembrance, the stage's theme version) for the bottom level.

I hope they put a big effort into the character faces. I personally like the most the ones from SCIV. Ugliest faces were in SCII to me. Awaiting to see more in SCVI.

Very likely getting the reveal of the new guy in the very least when it comes to character reveals. If more than one, then him and Kilik.

Maybe we'll see on Friday new gameplay on a new stage - Kilik vs his rival. And a teaser for long-awaited and returning female character - Taki. That's my scenario ;)

I honestly always though that Taki was as much as iconic to SC than Mitsu, Ivy or Sieg. But i guess Daishi wasn't sharing the same sentiment lmao

Taki and Sophitia are as iconic to the series as them and are mainstays of the series. I think literally anyone but Daishi would've kept them in every game.
