Soul Calibur VI: General discussion

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flail_(weapon)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nunchaku

The flail people are talking about is the ones with the longer shaft or the ball and chain.

The nunchaku is a very specialized form of flail not used in any way remotely similar the kind people are talking about. You know full well what people are asking for and that it's not remotely represented by the nunchaku.

Saying flails as people are asking for is represented by the nunchaku is as absurd as saying the great sword is well represented by a short sword.

Both are swords after all.

I will say that now that I'm reading the original interview in Spanish, the English translation posted here earlier is a little misleading.

The bit about "two stories" was in response to the question "Will there be a common story for everyone, or will each character have their own story?" This context makes it sound less like two different story modes and more like two parallel plot lines, one centering on Kilik and the other on Grøh.

All of this just makes the bit about Geralt's involvement more confusing, I guess we'll have to wait and see.

I believe the translation would be more like this (not a literal translation / In fact I doubt that spanish interview was original at all... I've seen it somewhere before):

There will only be one main story but this story will have two grandiloquent events.

Maybe that means two story archs or maybe like you said will just consist in two parallel plot lines (one could be focused on Soul Edge / the other one on Soul Calibur).
--------------

My two cents:

- The main story will be Soul Edge Vs Soul Calibur as always. It will involve Kilik, Grøh (+ the other unrevealed character) and... who knows...

- The other plot-line would be around guest character (Geralt) who would travel through time and space using a portal to fulfill a very special "Contract" encountering with every other main character that makes it in the final game.
Maybe he has some impact in one way or another but he will not be determinant for the ending (main story event) because he is just a guest for this particular game.

ok... you are right about that. sorry
but I still think it's a discussion completely no sense! we are talking about just a fighting game! That's really matters if all the characters are gay, straight, hermaphrodite?
sorry if I offended you, I did not want to speak to anyone directly... but to the general discussion!
for me, it is totally irrelevant and I don't understand the reason for this bother some people. anyway... that's just MY OPINION
 
I have the feeling Groh’s father might have a Knight Templar motif. I could see him with a mace (and optionally a tower shield unlike the tiny Alexandras). Something with Mitsurugi’s length but bulky like Rock’s maces. He may use some holy or even fire abilities.

He could be the SC version of a malfested for all we know. I’d think he’d have a design like this:

Minus the dwarfism most likely.

Warrior Woman should be a thing ideally. Probably inspired by the Dora Milaje. Not being racist, but Zasalamel seems more Babylonian than representative of African cultures but it’s a cool part of the former’s design. Don’t mean it in a racist way once again.

Kind of worried for a spear user too since Mi-Na and Hilde appear to be on the chopping block. Xiba got some but Kilik never got any.
 
What is even the point of Bangoo? Even Rock himself basically doesn't do anything throughout the series besides hang about un-played taking up roster space, why does he have this one random bit of apparently important backstory that's barely mentioned and connects to absolutely nothing?
 
I think it's a mix of that Bangoo would doubtlessly be a gameplay improvement over Rock and also the gusto Rock gives while shouting his name,"BANGOOOOO!!!".
 
It's so sad when a character is so bad that even some insignificant speck of trivia and backstory hints at a more interesting and better character, even though nothing about the other character exists outside some speculative fanart.

To add to this, the Xbox 360 port of SC1 was released July 2008. That was probably intentional to match up with the 10th anniversary of SC1's arcade release.

If SC6 will be released as early as July, I'd think they would do character reveals at a much faster pace.

I don't know...announcing a game to be released 3 months from now? After the few characters shown so far? Kind of unreasonable, if not silly.

They could be pulling an NRS with slowing down reveals... but July doesn’t sound too realistic. That’s less time than MvCI.

Marvel Infinite was a major fuck-up long before its arrival, because of it's short development time l0l
