Recently I've been imagining what a SoulCalibur VI: Arcade Edition / Fated Retribution / Special / whatever might look like. What I'd like to see most are more stages. Hypothetically, if they added four new stages, every character could finally have a stage that "fit" them: Other than stages...

Pssssh. A ninja with a mechanical arm? That's a bit too far-fetched for SoulCalibur.

There are certainly serious SC fans, but there's a great many more casual fans. SoulCalibur VI sold quite well from everything we've seen. It's probably outsold UNIST and Blazblue Cross Tag Battle. I doubt Samurai Shodown will sell as much. But compared to other fighting games, only a few...

I hope now people will stop with the "Namco hates SoulCalibur" idea. A close cousin to the "Harada is secretly trying to destroy SoulCalibur because it's not his series" conspiracy theory. How's this for a crazy idea? Once fans show Namco that they're serious about the game, maybe they'll treat...

Yeah, I did specify single-player. Namco tried this with Combot in Tekken Tag Tournament 2. It was cool, but not very fleshed out. (Both because the mode was very short, but also because you were a robot without flesh. High humor in this post.)

I still think they should bring back Necrid's shape-shifting weapon and use it as the basis for a single-player campaign. It would allow players to build their own custom movesets from the game's 2000+ individual moves. There's the potential for an insane amount of customization and replayability.

I mean, a surprising number of people believed Vergeben, so this really shouldn't be news.

In a shocking display of good taste, Raphael doesn't strip the clothes off his adopted daughter:

Not sure how I feel about this change. I wanted RE nerfed, but GI is a mechanic that makes SoulCalibur fun.

OKUBO

Top 8 of SCVI @ Final Round will be starting soon, on a different stream from yesterday. If you're curious, here's the character usage breakdown for Top 24 (and if a player used two characters, I counted each character as .5): Astaroth - 4 Xianghua - 3 Maxi - 2 Ivy - 2 Nightmare - 2 Seong...

Top 24 of SoulCalibur VI @ Final Round starting soon.

Or maybe Azwel is simply using a metaphor to describe Amy's past. You know, how she's never had any agency? How some dude just picked her out of her old life, put her in his mansion and dressed her up in pretty clothes? How she's almost entirely without emotion? Calling Amy a doll is the...

OMG they're setting up a Street Fighter crossover! M.Bison sent Amy back in time to get Soul Edge it all makes sense now.

I love the leap from "doll" to "clone."

But I didn't say SCIII:AE. I said SCIII. They're very different games.

Pretty ironic that Amy didn't have a 2P in SoulCaliburs III & IV (only recolors). But in VI she's the only SC character with a 2P.

That's because only real men like Rock. And real men don't cry over their favorite characters not showing up in a video game.

That seems like splitting hairs. Bamco was willing to trust the series to a guy who wanted to take risks. Isn't that a risk in itself?
