Soul Calibur VI: General discussion

Tira position on character select screen Source
Apparently, someone got an early copy of SC6 Deluxe and streamed an hour and a half of it
Found this on Reddit

Judging by the point the stream starts there's no opening intro cinematic. Just straight to title screen like the beta. That's a real shame.

And no proper select screen on arcade mode? Why oh why would they do that? Its not like they haven't already made a beautiful select screen for vs. The asset is made. That really dampens the whole atmosphere for casuals. What a waste. Looks like arcade mode was an afterthought.

I still can't wait for the game but got to be honest this is pretty disappointing.
 
But then Yun-seong only sets out on his quest because he wants to be like Hwang, who he idolizes, and he takes Hwang's place on the roster because Hwang returns to the coast guard after the events of SoulCalibur, so again, Hwang is more important for this story, right now, and Yun-seong comes after. It's not impossible that Yun-seong makes it in, I'm not saying that, it's just that Hwang comes first in sequence is all.

I have my doubts that Hwang’s “importance” in the story is going to take hold when much of SCVI’s main story campaign so far focuses on the trio of Kilik, Maxi, and Xianghua. The inclusion of extraneous characters such as Talim, Tira, and Zasalamel have set a precedent for others outside of SCI’s standard timeline to be possibly included. Yun-seong is nothing but prime material to be considered when characters like Mi-na and Talim are intertwined with his own backstory. I have reason to believe he has an equal chance, if not slightly more, of making it in over Hwang.

IIRC, PlayStation has a built-in feature that disables any kind of recording or streaming on the PS4 itself on almost all games when going through start-up/booting.

Lizardman with axe and shield
 
I get the feeling that the season pass will be Hilde , Hwang and Lizardman due to placement , though it is just a baseless theory. Hilde can easily be by Siegfried , Hwang can be by Talim and Seong Mina while Lizardman can be on the right side. I think maybe we are getting scraps from the base roster they originally had planned.
 
Isn't that community made lizardman character?

Neat Artwork tho
No, it's not the community made one, that's here:

And it's not the one from Kilik's story, either, since that one was wearing a leather vest and different coloration, and this one is wearing armor...

So this is a brand new Lizardman, but that is definitely Hand Ax, which would be with the round shield, almost certainly.
I can't make up my mind if they're teasing us or trolling us.

That's his SCIV armor, as I suspected. In fact, the only thing different about this design is that he doesn't have his SCIV frills, which--given the CaS lizardmen--actually makes him less unique.

Barring some DLC revamp (which I don't think the community would take very well :\ ), I guess the ol' lizard's gonna sit this one out.

Not trying to give false hopes or anything but i do remember that they did same thing with Tekken 7, they released an Artwork that had Kuma in it while Kuma wasn't announced yet for the game at that time, and then the Bear (and Panda) get announce later. just saying.

Yeah, that's definitely his SC4 armour. It also looks like the illustration from the E3 story mode trailer could be the same armour as well if you look at his left shoulder and the armour on the back. Definitely starting to look like his inclusion in SC6 is reduced to enemy Lizzies using his SC1 moveset.

Yeah, I noticed that a while back and mentioned it in the Lizardman speculation thread. For a while I just tried not to think about it. Wanted to hold out some hope for my favorite character and all that.
