Obviously this isn't representative of the whole For Honor fanbase but they don't seem the type who would play SamSho
Also imo he just looks generic. I got into assassin's creed because I liked Ezio in SC5, but I would never try For Honor because of this warden character...

what this from ?
Regarding the character designs in For Honor
• They feels more like a customizable avatar for a RPG rather than fully fleshed fictional characters
• Due to the base character being generic looking (so that you will push for cosmetic upgrades to the armor slots) you start by looking less memorable
• The lack of facial emotes due to helms/head gear makes it really hard to relate to the For Honor character other than a in-game avatar with a unique moveset.
• This is contrasted by characters in fighting games where they feel like genuine characters with their own cannonical motivations. Of course there are some fighting games where the characters are generic and are simply named after their fighting style, but those are less successful.
What Soul Calibur can adapt from For Honor:
• More grounded fighting styles. They definately have a strong western influence, with numerous western european and scandinavian weapon/movesets.
• For Honor minimizes the supernatural/anime fighting styles. I like how its clear that the For Honor characters are undeniably designed weapon first, which Soul Calibur ought to keep doing.
• The lethality of the execution animations (while not mortal kombat level). If the gore and decapitation were actually removed, a lot of the animations would make excellent soul calibur grabs and attack-throws. For example, something like Zasalamel's SC4 wrB attack-throw is sadly absent in SC6, but imo was really cool.

He claimed I wouldn't find proof of him downplaying COVID - 19. Isn't saying it's an excuse downplaying it's impact on the world.

So you were looking for the For Honor fanbase's reaction to considering Samurai shodown ?
Or the samurai shodown fanbase's reaction to For Honor's Warden as DLC ?
I think Soul Calibur is an intermediary between those 2 franchises. ...if anything, based on soul calibur's 3D movement and its more global diversity of weapon sets instead of being heavily japan based.

Tekken 2 was hugely popular, it was just outdone with Tekken 3, mainly because of the visuals pushing the PS1 system near the end of it's life cycle and the new character Eddy.

This dude has done some serious damages on some people, and i can totally relate and understand those people.
And yet, Natsu was fine.
Not her design tho, it was a bit too similar to Taki, and seriously Red as main color too? it really felt they wanted to remove Taki one of the most iconic Ninja in video games, and this is said not just by me but any random VG website from existence which is absolutely not okay. It's ok to like Natsu but honestly this is outrageous what they tried to do with her, and that was the problem, actually more than Taki not being in the game.
At least in the leaked SC6 arts Natsu was more unique and with cool design, and felt has a personality.
SC5 had it all, the good, the bad and the ugly of franchise.
Hope and faith, this dude never heard about those 2 words i guess.

They're definitely getting ready for a DLC release based on what's happening with the game's Steam database entry. I just wish I had any idea when it will get announced. Maybe Namco didn't get a memo telling them EVO is canceled? Maybe they're planning to fly out Okubo to an empty EVO stage early August and the only one to witness the DLC reveal is a stray cat walking into the venue.

and that's part of the reason why I liked her P2 costume more
I think it's better than her default as a whole.

Nothing bad with Natsu wearing red, it's a great color!

Natsu's spandex being red isn't the issue, the problem lies with it being the same shade as Taki's. Change that and you're half way there like this image here.
The other thing she needs is having designs exclusive to her. The fan artwork by Passion Republic did a brilliant job in this department, especially with the the bandana as it really suits her.

That passion republic Natsu design does look sick, i have to admit. I wouldn't mind her return long as she develops her own fighting style and grows a bit out of that annoying persona she has. Also, come up with something more original than her Naruto-esque story line.
