Soul Calibur VI: General discussion

They should give us at least one match of gameplay for each character when they get revealed.
BandaiNamcoBR: The secrets of the stage of the story will be revealed in #SoulCaliburVI Which character will you discover before?
Me: I really wanted to play with Seong Mi-Na but until now no confirmation, so I can only wait ...
BandaiNamcoBR: Keep an eye on our page to keep up with all the news.
I hope I don't take a report for this... :sc1min1:

@LisaK soft confirmation for mina? I like the sound of that. I need to get ready to squeal like a rabid anime girl on speed just in case then.
 
Welp, considering the event going on, i'd assume this weeks reveal would be characters that would generate the most hype and attention from the tournament players or people associated with / interested in that. Going off that, my guess is Hilde, Setsuka or Tira. Perhaps all of them if its going to be a big reveal. I definitely would not expect them to reveal anything like CAS, story or single player related.
 
Bird of Passage is no joke

"New members are recruited in the form of orphans kidnapped by members of the organization throughout Europe. The children are thrown into a dungeon together and denied food. Eventually, when at least one child has died of starvation, food is provided for the others. Eventually, the children come to realize that the death of one of their own allows them to eat and survive. The end result is one surviving orphan, who becomes a Bird of Passage member."

No wonder she got problems. Poor Tira.
 
Still doesn't give her the right to destroy a family. I'd hate to think she'd end up going to Japan and messing around with the Mishimas' ancestors.

You mean like when the Tekken FB confirmed Anna for T7?
 
Well because of her, one of the best girls is forced to fight for evil people and dies, some boy becomes a smug POS who commits genocide on the wrong people, and makes someone into an annoying moeblob. Plus even in III she was really obsessed with Sophitia...

Guess that shows how she’s a great villainess. Especially with the scheming.

Yeah I do like Tira as a character in the series, and I look forward to having more of her background explored in SCVI,

I've always been curious about her since she was shown fighting Raph in the intro cinematic of SCIII but it never was part of the story. Did she end up confronting Raph later in the series? Is she responsible for killing him/making him Dumas?

Here is the post VSFighter podcast, featuring myself, Silent Joel, HolyCarp and Hyrul. Its my first time directing something like this, and didn't plan it time wise all that much so it is a 2hr40min long one. Because of how long it is I have took the time to timestamp it, if you are unavailable to sit through it all.
Something to hold you guys over till Evo starts lol
0:56 - GI/RE
31:49 - Sophitia (HolyCarp)
44:19 - Siegfried (Silent Joel)
1:03:34 - Xianghua (Hyrul)
1:19:55 - Zasalamel (Andyroo)
1:50:10 - Ivy (HolyCarp)
2:06:37 - bits and bobs from other characters.(all)
2:29:00 - random final thoughts

That is much more Soul Edge's (and its creator's) fault than Tira's. And Patroklos being too stupid to realize he is wrong has nothing to do with that, his fault is his alone.
 
Come to think of it we don't exactly know where Edge came from. With Calibur I think it's implied to have been Excalibur once?

And it's effects seem different on each user.

  1. I guess that those who willing use Soul Edge and are genuinely evil like Cervantes don't see many physical effects. They may look a little sick like Patty's infamous kill.

  2. You can be less willing and have certain intentions without being a complete monster but it's easier to malfest like Raphael. Still its changes seem to vary as Raphael's malfestation is infectious. Gets confusing if you assume Viola is Amy since maybe it changed as she got older to developing magic. Maxi, Yun, and Sophitia in IV ended up turning red and getting echo-y voices in some of the Stories. Age prevention seems to be one of them as seen with Tira and for a time, Voldo.

  3. You could be of a weak willpower that the sword can easily influence like Siegfried and Pyrrha. This gives a more monstrous appearance to comply with breaking the wielder into becoming the ideal body for the sword. But why does Siegfried get fancy new armor and Pyrrha doesn't?

  4. Ivy and possibly Amy/Viola have platinum hair and are known to have blood tainted by Soul Edge (Ivy was a product of rape for SE to have a host while Amy got infected healing Raph.) Still how do you explain Maxi and Pyrrha who have SE tainted blood? Maxi didn't age and Pyrrha is kind of borderline loli for being of modern college student age even though Ivy's body matured? Did she (Ivy) go through puberty early or something?

  5. Evil Seed effects as seen with Kilik make you insane but it seems to persist. And who it affects seems random.
