Soul Calibur VI: General discussion

Excitinggggg!

I'm gonna throw some fists if Hilde isn't one of those. I can't play her for jack, but I can appreciate the concept and design.
At least Rock would need some major reworks to be unique. Yun-seong/Hwang maybe, too.
It would be super sweet if they were free, but I won't expect anything. Just hope it won't take forever.
 
I'm all for Setsuka in Season 2!! :)

but they need to actually reveal the upcoming characters. or at least tease with a vague outline/shadow.....lol.

just do something to get us hyped up and excited for the future.

I actually preferred aPat. Not for design (used Setsuka CaS,) but for the way he flowed forward instead of jutting forward then back.

Main differences being things like the 2143Ab animation.
 
"SNOW" = DLC7 (Snow=Setsuka)

no one said those are characters, everyone is getting too exited for nothing as far as we know those are the code names for CAS parts.

They're referred to as characters. They also have 2P profiles (though it's probably just a second colour as rest of the cast).

We don't know anything beyond that, though. They could be clones using movesets of other characters. They could all be mimics. Or it could be an elaborate hoax by Namco to try to fool dataminers.

If you recall, i suggested that possibility in the case of Cass and Amy but you were convinced that was not the case. Is this situation here a lot different?

Yeah, I think so. The news about Cassandra and Amy were posted all over the place and I saw people even tweet about it directly to Okubo, so Namco would be aware that information leaked. This is the first indication I've seen of Namco trying to obfuscate game assets. The dev team was probably asked to make sure to use codenames for all other characters after Cass and Amy were discovered. And then there's the chance that they purposefully added this only to fool people, but I think it's more likely these characters are real.

And because of that, you think it would be silly to assume the codenames share any relation to the actual character? Like for example "Stone" = Rock? We should assume they would be smart enough not to make it so obvious?
 
Consider the following:

In Japan they use code names for characters they are developing for example, the bosses in Street Fighter 2 are code named boxer, bull, dictator. I would not be surprised that these placeholder names are actually their prototype names.
