Soul Calibur VI: General discussion

I don't know if it's just the lower quality of the stream, but what's the deal with the background blur when characters get close to each other? Is this... A good thing? :P

Hope we get to see this tomorrow. It is also cool how they introduced stage dimensions on the character select like other fighting games.

Anyone know what that stylised infinite-looking symbol is at the bottom? Is it the back button or a round timer or what? In my head I'm thinking it would be cool if each stage has an infinite version that you can turn on by selecting this, kind of like the Omega-stages in Smash. But I'm feeling like it's probably just a timer of some sort.
 
It would be great if somebody could ask or confirm with the developers in E3 if the character select screen in the new build is representative to how many characters will be in the game. I hope we are getting more characters at launch. With this little roster, I'm guessing we're going to get something like this:

Can somebody explain how Twitter works? Did Okubo quote the mention of Talim in his opening tweet?

I think Raph is the worst character ever... I hope they don't bring him back....

The tweet he made, which was a reply to someone thanking the interviewer for mention Talim, was written to the first letter of each new line spelled Talim.

T-hank you
a-ll for
l-ooking
i-nto
m-y E3 interview.

I believe it would be a countdown timer to select a stage. But since it's local multiplayer, it's infinite.

EDIT: The same icon appears on the character select screen in the exact same place, so it's highly likely to be a select timer.

Mhm I figured it was something like that, didn't even think to check the char-select screen. Thanks.
 
About stages I'd rather have 10 stages well done and cyclic than 20 with a lot of look alike without day/night cycles.

If they put more stages it's absolutely and ultimately welcome. But at the same time Quality over Quantity always.
 
We could have a older Talim say in her 20s or so that came back in time. Or more than likely her Birth year will change.

I'll take and love any Talim though!

When Sieg`s life under this line, he will have blue fire effect. It seems that all his Lethal Hit move will be 100% active when hit the opponent.
 
When we have guest characters like Geralt, Link and Darth Vader, how can anyone even care about the story or the age of the characters...? Does SoulCalibur now forever exist in the same universe as Star Wars?

And doesn't character creation further debase story-based fantasies?
 
Could the two strange lines that connect to the small dot-like things on the Character Select screen possibly be..... 'next/previous page' buttons?

Nah. I wish, but if the '8 DLC characters' rumors are true, those two slots would have to be something else.

Though maybe it will be 'DLC' and 'CAS' character categories instead since there's no spot for those currently? Or maybe even 'Bonus' characters?

That Talim teaser was great and I hope you Talim fans are about to become very happy on Tuesday (gotta be!) ^_^

Bottom left corner is most assuredly going to be for CaS, and the hole in the middle is for DLC.
^ Then I see this and suddenly my 'previous/next page' theory feels more possible :o

23 characters at launch does seem wrong though considering they said they wanted more characters than SCV at one point, which I guess COULD include DLC but I would've thought they meant at launch (otherwise it's not REALLY more than SCV on a base level).
