Soul Calibur VI: General discussion

Low number of stages: is it possible when the actual game comes out we'll be able to unlock more? Could the stage select screen not show all the slots in game...?

There are glaring omissions that will definitely show up before launch as they have been in every game.

Like...
- Ninja stage or Japanese fortress
- Valentine Mansion or some Castle interior
- A Colosseum stage (in every game)
 
Tira is a four letter name.

I wonder about the names blocked by the banner above Zasalamel. It looks like it could be blocking 3 or 4 character timelines.
Forgot about her. But you'd think she'd be closer to Sophitia.

Hopefully the DLCs and CaS parts won't be futuristic only... I need more 1P/2P than a biker vest or a cosmonaut helmet...
Hopefully we actually just get 1p/2p anyway, and properly like the 2ps from SoulCalibur IV, not some of the messes we had in SoulCalibur V. SoulCalibur IV had 2ps, Broken Destiny had 1ps, I don't really get why it's such a big deal to include these things. Sure, the main cast has much more detailed designs than custom character parts, but I feel like, especially if SoulCalibur VI allows asymmetrical design options and more layers, it should be something that should inspire more intricate custom characters and improve the mode. Especially if there's only two DLC packs of custom equipment ever, I feel like that should imply that most of the parts should be in the game already.

Also wondering about the voice actors for customs. I could hear Kira Buckland as the Serious equivalent and Ian Sinclair for the Male Reliable Leader counterpart.
I'm hoping to see Michelle Ruff and Ali Hillis make a return, mostly.

I really hope that Inferno will not be a playble character. I hate stupid playable bosses. It'll be a wasted slot.
Quite the opposite, I'm hoping to see him make a return to his SoulCalibur I form where he was not only a mimic, but had his unique moves to make him more than just a mimic. It's definitely less of a slot waste than just a plain mimic like Edge Master or a half-mimic like Kilik. Elysium was half-baked but a neat concept with her modified moveset for Pyrrha Omega and her unique Critical Edge. If Inferno could have slightly modified movesets for every character, and keep his unique moves (perhaps only usable in Soul Charge?), he might could be the best mimic we've ever seen, and definitely not a waste of a slot.

Looks like it's Rock between Groh & Ivy. Who else can it be? It clearly looks like a four letter name. Only other possibility is Groh's father.
It looks a bit longer than four, probably Voldo, that extra letter really doesn't take that much space.
 
Going back to this:

It could be a 5 letter name with "I". "KILIK" is as long as "GROH". I even see "Voldo" fit in this space.
 
All i got to say is...

Watch the bonus character on the Season Pass be Talim LUL

They NEED to make Talim on the main roster or most people will be pissed and just not buy it. They should make Mina,Hwang, or Cassandra the bonus characters. Setsuka should be DLC.
 
well on this discussion I feel the the names from what I can guess is

Below Groh is Groh's dad
Below Ivy is Astaroth, Lizardman, and Voldo
And Below Sophitia is a probably Tira

But you gotta admit it would make PS a lot of money putting the "arguably" most popular character as DLC. I mean I made that post as a worst case scenario joke but yeah

It could make them money or it could backfire horribly. At this point SC is on its last leg, best not to upset the casual fans who won’t mind letting go. Let’s just hope Namco is smarter than that.

"most people" ?
I guess then those minimum 1,38 million people who bought SC5 (year 2013) are a small part of the SC community.
Where are the other multiple millions?
 
Looking at the dots, I would say the two above Nightmare are Lizardman and Astaroth, respectively, because Ivy, Lizardman, and Astaroth made up the group known as "Schwarzstrom", all in accordance with Nightmare. Astaroth is the one on the bottom, because that line is the only one that also lines up with Maxi.

The one underneath Sophitia is most assuredly Tira, since she has behind the scenes machinations with those same lines, and all of these have a coinciding shared dot under 1585. Tira's line also goes on to interact with Sophitia, which should be rather apparent why.

So the one underneath Ivy seems to relate to her, and be the bridge that leads to Siegfried regaining his sanity. Is it possible that maybe, just maybe, Cervantes might could turn around and be a good guy in this? Removal of the Soul Edge taint, Nightmare defeated, he reconciles with his daughter, aids in her research, and helps restore Siegfried in the same way that he has found himself?

Who is "most people"? I doubt it'll have much effect if she's base or not since she can at least be there. Also I'd rather Talim be switched with Setsuka as DLC just so I can have a main in the base roster :p
 
Would Talim fans be upset over her not being in the base roster?

Yes.

I would find that very cynical to put the number 1 of the popularity poll as bonus. Whoever is the number one.
They have plenty of options, all of them are less insulting for their fanbase.

Talim does not have an important role in main story , but I find her storyline super-badass : destroying souledge in the wind, return his humanity to Necrid, reconcile algol with his past by resurrecting the spirit of his son! OK this part is fan speaking :sc2tal3:

What people forget about casual fans is that they are replaceable, interchangeable and fleeting. They will come and go, these vagabond strangers, as the tide rises and falls. Rather presumptuous of you to believe that a single character is carrying this entire franchise, simply because of a few vocal fans.

"As though millions of pedophiles cried out at once."
