Soul Calibur VI: General discussion

Nakoruru

There are a lot of good choices to pick from Samurai Shodown but for me personally ATM I'd rather have Earthquake so we get another big guy to the roster and finally get a kusarigama wielder. If it's got to be a cute girl then pick Cham Cham. Not only is she a unique design but her weapon is a boomerang and has a pet monkey as an assist.

Well in Ogre's case the way i would handle his moveset might be a bit different than Tekken. First off i would use the snakes as a sort of partial True Ogre transformation on individual attacks, similar to what Algol does i suppose. I'm not put off by martial arts in SC. That had to exist from a long time ago in history as a concept.

Nakoruru is quite literally the best idea possible in terms of relatability and possible moveset. Her abilities are not to ridiculous to where she has to be stripped and gutted as a character in order to work. If anything she would be slightly upgraded in that regard for this game making her fans excited to see her play. The bird "gimmic" is a very simple mechanic idea that has not yet been explored in this game but allows some interesting flight attack options. She hits like... a perfect sweet spot.

Definitely not popular however.



Kunimitsu, pretty sure you could make the whole outfit.

Mind if I add some fuel ti the fires of your imagination by pointing out there is even a mechanical precedent to most of her moveset? Cervantes has screen wide dashes, and Yoshimitsu has aerial assults and fkying, so it wouldn't be anything too different not to fit... And she would be right at home in the presence of Talim, for instance, concerning story and whatnot...

Hwang!? It’s a plate full of sausage as it is.

I would pick Setsuka over 2B in any situation really I’m just obsessed with battoujutsu it’s one of the coolest techniques to exist (especially when exaggerated)

If they rework Cassie like they did with Mina again I’d opt for that.
And as much as she isn’t more important than Raphael Amy was hella fun to play as.

Those girls can appease to casuals too.
I know SC is struggling but I despise this handicap we put on the franchise by say it needs guests to survive.

The woman in this game kick ass.

C’mon Setsuka I want more “hurry up and get back up here”

Oh i know, but i think she would get a couple more options than Yoshimitsu though because she probably wouldnt have any other "stances" besides flight. I think i've seen her throw the blade from flight at one point right?

If that is something she does, they could also consider blade throwing and bird retrieval from ground as a mechanic as well. That i doubt she does in her own game but its not something to ridiculous to suggest her doing so here.

Plus i guaran-damn-tee you everyone will be completely overjoyed to make CAS Ainu with hawk pets. She would be like... a much better Zwei samurai.
 
Why does everyone ignore Black Panther or other marvel / super hero stuff? They have a lot of males and females who use weapons, and some (not many, but some) would work in the setting.
 
Maybe we should all think of the worst possible stuff they could announce so that Cervantes and Raphael being the final reveals for the game will actually seem like great news.

Here's my attempt. They'll have a huge presentation at TGS announcing all of the following:
  • Lizardman and Hwang are officially announced as characters for the base roster! ... But they're both mimics.
  • The full season pass is finally revealed: Tira, Raphael, and Cervantes, with Jar Jar Binks as guest character.
  • A new game mode is revealed: Gacha Pachislo simulator! You beat up a gigantic Pachislo machine until it falls over. Afterwards, you'll get a prompt to pay 20 USD in exchange for a loot box. The loot box has a 10% chance to give you CaS armour pieces and 90% chance to give you Voldo or Olcadan fanart.
  • They proudly announce the next project for Project Soul. They'll be assigned to work on a huge, new season pass. This season pass will add new costumes for every character, additional stages, and a ton of characters: Amy, Setsuka, Cassandra, Hwang, Lizardman, Viola, Hilde, and Li Long. This season pass will be for Tekken 7.
  • At the end of the presentation, Harada will step forward and present a speech. His entire speech consists of him laughing maniacally for 10 minutes straight. You can still hear him laughing as he walks off stage.
  • A few days later, 8warun.com will be shut down as no one is visiting the site anymore due to losing all hope in the SC franchise.
So, if I have this as expectation, then literally anything will be positive news.

Didn't he say that that's not the best ? lol

Anyways, can't find that many good skill project videos of SC3 Setsuka.

I can't imagine how hype she'll be with the new systems & mechanics of SCVI.

Ive been wanting setsuka in since they announced the game. My post was in response to having vets return over new characters like 2B and blah blah
 
Dissidia said:
Too many new characters is also a bad thing. Look at Tekken 7. I might be in the minority saying this, but They added around 8 new characters...only half of which I feel are fully fleshed out.

IMO 4 characters is the max to add in a fighting game at a time.

New characters can be great, but they just took the wrong approach with theirs. The whole concept around their new characters was to get new people into the game, so they dumbed down the movelists. Some of those characters only have 40 moves! They're just very incomplete.

There are so many interesting concepts that people come up with that could be great, but it just takes a lot of resources for them to make these characters from scratch and their mindset behind how to create loyalty and interest with those characters is completely backwards. Like with what PS is doing, they should 1) give them either a prominent backstory or role in the story, and then 2) give them a full and unique moveset to the series.

Plz no.

I understand, i really do because i used to feel the same way. Definitely during SC4 i felt like that but at this point, somebody aint getting their waifu anyway. My favorite is Algol so... yeah. If PS knows they are going to piss someone off, they might as well try to rake in as much attention and money for the series as possible.

Even if they manage to get most of the popular characters on DLC, you'll still have a large group of people that will be pissed about their favorite character locked behind a paywall. The attitude towards guests is a bit different.

Personally, as long as the guest fits and i like the moveset, i've got no reason to complain.
 
At this point i think we can all agree that Setsuka at 99% won't be in the launch roster. (to not say 100% LOL). Unless by some surpriseor miracle that the launch roster is suppose to be bigger and the character select screen we've seen was a placeholder that didn't men anything in the end, but yeah who knows.

Seems the game is very heavy focused on SC1 and 2 just like Okubo said very earlier, only expection goes to Zasalamel, which make a lot of sens since he's immortal, and very important to the SC lore. And that's it, he's the only chaarcter of base roster from other than SC1,2, well with Tira too but she's DLC and Okubo said she almost didn't make and Okubo pushed for her (and Huge thanks to him for this btw)

Now i think it will mostly depends on Hwang and Lizzy. If there'll be in base roster, then Setsuka will have high chances to be in SP since she'll be one of the very few unique characters left.

If Hwang and Lizzy are DLCs (which would be really weird btw), then we already have (or almost) our full roster base games + sp. As the one character DLC left will have high chance to be a Guest character.

There's also the possibility that i don't think about often, is that both Hwang and Lizzy won't make it at all, but would be too awkward since they were confirmed to be in the game in some ways by the Azwel leaker.

Man i would like them to tell us at least how many characters are gonna be in the game at launch, would make things a bit easier lol

Do it everyday, like me. He said the team's going to be paying attention to what the fans ask for, so DO IT!! Although i'm sure the season pass characters have already been decided on...

If this really works Dampierre would probably be the protagonist of the series ... Kappa

Kayane: Are you sure that you want me to ask people to spam you on twitter?
Okubo: Not Me!
Kayane: Who? Tell me who, and I will spam them
Okubo: Company Twitter :6:BandaiNamcoUS/SC:4:
