Soulcalibur VI DLC Discussion Thread

Typically, I'd go for Tara any day, but Kari really won me over with her Kitana performance. Though realistically, Tara will probably reprise her role, assuming they don't recast her.
I think Kari was a good replacement for Karen Strassman as Kitana. I’ll miss her the same as I’ll miss Patrick Seitz as Scorpion but both were well casted either way with solid replacements (and Seitz does a decent job as Cervantes in this game).
 
Talking about Patrick Seitz, why he blocked Ooofmatic in twitter??
Oh the D...jpg
 
I has more MK stans than SC players in my twitter and they still complain about Karen Strassman absent from MK11. Kappa
Admittedly, Karen's one of my faves and I was initially disappointed when I found out she wasn't returning. But I feel like Mileena was her stronger performance so since she's not in the game it's not too much of a loss. I do kinda wonder how Kari would handle Mileena.
Speaking of Karen, part of me hopes her and the other SC4 voices get added to CaS. It's highly doubtful but it'd be a nice addition.
 
@SpellcraftQuill about Setsuka I don't know if she will gets one of Pat weapons, but if this happens this is my list:
  1. Ugetsu Kageuchi
  2. Ridicule
  3. Shiranamigasumi
  4. Sword Umbrella
  5. Hidden Bamboo
  6. New Weapon
  7. New Weapon
or
  1. Ugetsu Kageuchi
  2. Suitou
  3. Ridicule
  4. Shiranamigasumi or Yakou
  5. Hidden Bamboo or Sword Umbrella
  6. New Weapon
  7. New Weapon

  • Most Setsuka weapons have the same design of Ugetsu Kageuchi by changing only the sticker that is the case with Ugetsu Shinuchi and Sword Umbrella or a slight difference in the sword stem like Suitou and Yakou.
  • I would rather sacrifice these 3 weapons and give Setsuka two new weapons with a unique design and give to her one of αPatroklos weapon, preferably Hidden Bamboo or Hidden Sword.
  • Sword Umbrella is basically a low budget Iaitō, maybe it begin sacrified, but they always put a generic weapon like 'Death Scythe' / 'Circular Sword' and rename for something more attractive 'Harvest' / 'Steel on Steel'.
  • I noticed that they brought a SC 3 weapon that was missing in SC 4, in case Setsuka would be Shiranamigasumi, so I added her to the list replacing Yakou & Suitou.

Honestly, I think they'll go the same route as with everybody else's weapons, which would be CAS-able variety. My prediction would be:

1. Ugetsu Kageuchi
2. Ridicule
3. Medival-looking umbrella and sword (maybe with a sword handle like Alpha Pat's Entelechia), but perhaps this slot is already taken by Ridicule
4. Modern-looking umbrella and sword (probably some kind of Bond-style sword cane and a regular umbrella)
5. Goth-looking umbrella and sword (might opt for the lizard joke weapon from SCIV or make the umbrella look like the skin between the fingers of a bat)
6. Chinese-looking umbrella and sword (like some variation on the sword fittings and paper, maybe borrowing from Alpha Pat's Hidden Fang)
7. SCIV Soul Calibur umbrella and sword (as it's the most CAS-able of her assets - and properly built, unlike the other utterly hideous low-polygon models from SCIII and SCIV)

I'm afraid they'll not bring Shiranamigasumi back (loved the spiral pattern). Also, I thinks it's highly unlikely that they will remove the umbrella from any of her weapons. Just imagine all of her umbrella moves and winposes with just a scabbard. Would look very weird imo...

Maybe but not as bad as you think. Since Alpha Pat has already been a thing i think we should definitely get at least one option for that. It should be the same with Hilde and Yoshi too while i'm at it.
 
Some of Mitsurugi's poses look weird with non-katana too when involving the sheath. Plus generally anything done with Siegfried or Nightmare with their Large Tachi / Blade of Torment. I don't think that's the biggest concern they'll have. I could see Hidden Fang, Dainslef, or Hidden Sword coming back for Setsuka.
