Why does it feel like Streetfighter is finally coming back home? With the disaster that was release SFV in the rear view mirror we are finally getting back to the roots.

you people say this every time a fighting game gets a sequel
WE'RE GOING HOME BROS
then it's whining for a few years until they unveil the next one
Stop generalizing Black person, a lot of people were wary of SFV since the beta dropped and realized what watered down garbage it was
You can play pick and choose and find examples of people not being happy with any sequel to any game so your moronic post is technically correct but at the same time if you've been even a little involved with the series you'd know SFV is the most divisive entry in the series for a reason
Because the devs actually play and they're rejecting anime.
It's the from the same directors of SFV
cope
They literally picked up the Bayonetta director and Megaman 11 producer. Most of the team from late SFV is there, but the Monster Hunter head runs the production and a bunch of the vanilla SFV team is gone.
with Ono gone and most of the devs from vanilla SFV gone along with MH and esports money injected
Thank God
ft10 in sfv?
Neutralgays hate fun
Fun is copy paste one-sided combos?
>neutral is only people walking back and forth on the ground, there's no other kind of neutral gameplay
I'd tell you to educate yourself but you're a wojakgay
same directors without Woshige and Ono fricking up
SF4's conception through Season 4 of SFV (as well as SFxT & Marvel Infinite) were Ono's era. Ono was demoted because SF6 was apparently awfula few years ago so he quit and the team that took over without his influence not only fixed up SF6 but made SFV into a decent game so it could live long enough to unfrick 6. Even SF4 which most people liked deteriorated in terms of balance after Super with Twins being intentionally busted and the rushed nature of Ultra after SFxT's failure. The only truly great fighting games made during that era were Tatsunoko vs Capcom & Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3 which were developed by 8ing under Capcom producer Ryota Niitsuma.
A lot of the same people that worked on V worked on 6 but with a different direction/attitude and learning from V's mistakes alongside bring in a few new people they successfully made a Street Fighter that feels like a big deal again, and not in the way 4 did because it had been dead for a decade. CvS3 is also pretty much guaranteed with what both SNK & Capcom have been saying lately even if it's not on the horizon yet, which seems like a great consolation for SFxT & MvCi shitting the bed and burning the bridges to more Tekken or Marvel crossovers.
>rejecting anime
SF6 is the first fighter Woshige (Xrd player) has been around to design from the ground-up and you can feel it. Characters have huge movelists and half the roster has unique resource mechanics, all in service of making the plentiful and powerful system mechanics less overbearing and make character strength more prominent even within strong universal options. The pacing/movement/pressure is not anime but the system balancing and character toolset design absolutely is.
>Why does it feel like Streetfighter is finally coming back home?
because they're making a game first then fighting game later
what'd you mean by this
world tour is cutscenes and fighting game gameplay between those cutscenes
World Tour is an open-world mode where you can engage in platforming. You can also beat up goons, Final Fight-style.
It's actually the fighting game first and everything after.
that's SF5
SFV was made because they literally scraped a fighting game and had no idea what they were making besides an IP to sell
Absolutely true. Finally we have a real fricking game. Took fighting games long enough, although I only care for the competitive aspect and won’t touch the single player stuff
Because you're either a moron with low emotional intelligence who doesn't realize they're being manipulated by a PR cycle of internet shills who have a direct economic interest in spit-shining developer's buttholes, or you're one of them.
This game looks soulless as shit. From the awful artstyle and garbage music, to the weak roster, and the YouTube shills.
>garbage music
Everytime I see this I picture a basement-dwelling DYEL who b***hes that there's no dadrock in the game and curses at the sounds that the "youths" are listening to today.
The music for 6 is fricking terrible.
nta I like hip hop and shit but sf6 music is really uninteresting.
The music in 6 sucks ass.
However, this can be remedied if the game had a jukebox with the past SF songs so nobody is forced to listen to their underwhelming garbage for this game.
>a jukebox with the past SF songs so nobody is forced to listen to their underwhelming garbage for this game
I'm sure you'll be able to buy some like in 5
they'll just cost real money instead of fight money this time
SF6 music is pretty bland and forgettable so far, Jamie has the best theme and it is just okay
I'm mad because sf6 looks great, but Necalli got introduced last game instead of this one and he's pretty much my dream SF character, but they mishandled him so everybody hates him and there's no way he'll get added to 6.
A lot of fun characters like FANG and Lucia and G are gonna be tossed aside forever since 5 was such a trash fire in the average consoomer's eyes. It's kind of sad really
When's the next reveal, I don't care much for the current cast and want to see how Lily and Manon actually play
G is super popular for how weird he is. If JP is not a direct relation to him (and he likely is) then we'll get some midpoint between G & Q.
>MFW my main gets confirmed.
I am hoping beyond hope boys. It will not be in the base game but my son Abel will appear in another Street Fighter game dammit.
I'm sorry Nekalichad, but maybe our guys will appear together in street fighter 7....as dlc.
Frick.
If Abel or Dudley gets in… I will be the happiest man on earth anon. We pray together
Abel is 100% not coming back and has been replaced with a more attractive function. a massive aesthetic improvement honestly, wish I could say the same about T.Hawk and Guy's replacements.
hopefully she has his command grab and the SF2 animation from it, would've been funny
from the leaked audio files it's confirmed she does along with pretty much his entire moveset and a wind buff mechanic that sounds like it gives her better range on some moves.
>is straight up t. hawk
Now I'm interested.
SF is the only game that have girls you want to main
>18 character base roster despite a 22 character roster leak
>four characters being held back to be sold as DLC later, including Akuma
i've had my gripes about the artstyle, but this is probably the thing that tore it for me. when that roster first leaked, i thought it looked pretty great. SFV got killed for only having 16 characters, so seeing them give us 22 as part of the base roster – i thought that was a good sign. finding out that they were infact holding back characters to release later again was the exact opposite, it just proved that Capcom's fighting divisiom still haven't learned anything. SF6 is MVCI2 for me, it's another on-disc DLC game that cripples it's artstyle by veering too far into realism. that said, i'm glad some people seem hype about it. i want you guys to have fun. it's just shitty for me as a fan because this is gonna be *the* Capcom fighting game for the next half a decade, and all it's been so far is another huge disappointment.
Yeah this. All the DLC whoring killed fighting games for me.
>no fei long still
god damn it
which characters are being held back?
>coming home
she's literally me
41% yourself now
gotta be honest, i really like the character portrait. he's like a mix of Ruby Rhod and Ulala but gay.
totally fricked it in the execution though
All the 2D key art is really nice for 6. Once again the Street Fighter team has trouble modeling faces but people are just assuming there's an agenda there this time for no reason.
saying "no reason" is a bit insensitive considering the climate it's being released in, the obvious emphasis on targeting the Twitch FGC bro demographic, and ESPECIALLY the leaked internal documents from three years ago. if they bring Mika back, i'll drop all my agenda concerns, but otherwise people have a fine amount of reason to be skeptical
>the climate it's being released in
Not everything is shaped so aggressively by the climate it's released in. People blamed the "climate" for the Mika ass slap censor and the idea that default Cammy was too sexy for top 8 when it was just what ESPN (a major cable network owned by Disney) told EVO & Capcom to do.
>leaked internal documents from three years ago
The ones that say "female characters should have agency and not be damsels" and "if we sexualize women then we should sexualize men equally"? Neither of those really draw the conclusion you're pulling from them logically. The latter in particular is less "we need to stop making sexy women" and more "we need to make more sexy men" which is pretty much how they've been doing things.
to be fair they're including Cammy's old booty outfit and that's a good sign that Mika could come back
the foot fetish shit makes me smile but it's not overtly sexual enough to show me they don't care about getting called sexist
>to be fair they're including Cammy's old booty outfit and that's a good sign that Mika could come back
This, one thing that Capcom definitely took from SFV is that coomers put their money down for waifus and costumes, so there'll definitely enough sexy stuff to go around
i love you but please stop with the coomer meme anon
Vycj vreajubg us reak
Ganker is assmad at them but they're exactly the sort of over the top camp design you'd see for that sort of thing in the 80s/90s too.
see
i want to like him. it'd be easier for most people to take it in stride if the concerns about sexual censorship were not floating around the series like a fart cloud
>every character plays identically
>no mid-screen oki game
>Throw Fighter 2
You fricks said the same thing during the SFV beta. You're all losers all FGC "people" are cretins.
Oh no the schizo is imaging shit again. The SFV beta had complaints about the netcode, the lack of proximity normals the length of normals, v-skill gimmicks, etc.
aesthetic looks like shit. Sticking to strive for now even tho it has it's flaws. Sorry capcom but presentation fricking matters and this one sucks
>Strive
lmao. The entire game is flaws. I'd rather play anything else
nah it's serviceable and it looks fricking pretty, that matters a lot to me
That's cool if you are a big casual. I won't deny the game looks pretty, but the honeymoon of looking at pretty animations wears off after about a few days for me
>presentation fricking matters
Because Strive's mobile game-like presentation is so fricking good, am I right?
Beta gameplay felt like a clusterfrick though. It's like they tied everything to the drive gauge without thinking through.
more capcope. feels like the series is regressing, the art and graphics and characters just keep getting worse. i dont care if they put silly references, only onions boys care about it.
I will not be playing Street Fighter 6 because I know I'll never be good at fighting games. I've spent hundreds of hours and am still a flowchart autopilot loser that will never improve, I never went past a C rank in fightcade despite playing on there for years. Street Fighter, anime, you name it. I just reach this plateau then start autopiloting fast and never get better after hundreds of hours. I just cannot get better. I cannot make myself think during games and do the proper responses to moves. It does not matter how much I look at my replays, use training mode, or play the game.
Basically I need to quit this hobby because I know I will forever be garbage and it really lowers my self-esteem. After playing fightcade games 5 hours a day for a month straight and never getting any better whatsoever I began to literally suspect I had brain damage. I quit fighting games then lied comatose in bed for 2 months, and ate like a hog, and gained over 20 lbs. Then I started playing again and I don't even know why. It makes me miserable because I will never ever be good. It's like wanting to be a singer but having no ability to sing in key, and people keep saying "no man you're fine, just sing more!!" to try to get you to keep playing shit kusoge that is ruining your life and driving you to suicidal ideations since you cannot stop comparing yourself to others. The release of 6 is my chance to quit this terrible genre that has destroyed my self confidence and wasted countless hours of my time.
I thought the worst that happened is bushin ryu desecrated...
until i listened to the OST.
Kim is cool. Some small adjustments to her face are all that is needed because of how they move for certain expressions. Zeku & Guy are still cooler but if they wanted a new generation that learned from the old then Guy taking on his own student is one of the better ideas to run with since that's how Bushinryu works.
This is what the boomers on Ganker need to understand. There naturally needs to be a new generation of streetfighters to not only shake things up but appeal to a younger crowd. The oldies aren't going anywhere and can be pulled in for future games.
I've seen a lot of positive reactions to Luke being the main face of SF6. Most of the criticisms of him target his comically goofy proportions.
Luke looks way better this game and his goofy persona will eventually win people over. They tried to change the face of the franchise in the past but there's a stronger case this time around.
>I've seen a lot of positive reactions to Luke being the main face of SF6
Lmao. Fricking shills
Don't fear the future armlet.
Except they've gone through this before. SF3 was literally fricking called The New Generation, and the roster was shaken up for exactly those reasons. Then they had to backtrack because it was a fricking disaster.
Boomers don't need to understand shit. It's on you zoomdumbs to prove blowing up familiar casts in favor of new slates is actually a good idea.
but it worked with SFV
It worked because only 4 out of 16 were new
What about SF4?
Kim is a disgusting lovecraftian nature mistake
you're racist we get it
you kneeled to blacks we get it
Her forehead just need to be toned down
Soundtrack is really nice so far.
Modders will fix her right?
I keep going back to listen to the music to hear why people hate it and I still really like 80% of it. Not On The Sidelines being a truly awful track but also the main theme sucks, Guile & Luke have pretty forgettable themes for the most part which is really bad for Guile with how good his theme usually is, Juri's theme while fitting and not as bad as VJuri's trash theme is pretty bland dubstep, and then everything else is decent at worst. The stage music from the beta is more consistent than the characters too, there's none I would call bad. The attempt at dynamic music isn't as complex as KI but I appreciate it, Last Round is pretty great across the board.
I still hope for a jukebox mode if only because so many SF games have excellent OSTs that I'd like to see in there. Sadly they might sell it to you like in V.
>Luke answered to Guile when he was in the military
>Jamie was inspired to become a fighter by Yun & Yang
>Kimberly is the current student of the Bushinryu cycle
>Lily is T.Hawk's daughter
>JP uses Psycho Power and likely has some relation to G
>AKI was adopted by FANG much like how Ed was basically raised by Balrog
>Manon & Marisa...?
What's their deal? It feels like all these new era characters have a connection to veteran characters except them. I could just see them saying Manon is Abel's student ever since the Psycho Power got purged from him in V's story but I don't see what connection Marisa could have with anybody, unless she's just randomly an old friend of Zangief's like Azam.
My guess Marisa is another R. Mika case
If this game is not on the switch then it's not a real japanese game. And the only real fighters are Japanese.
You guys are idiots for supporting this. SF V was anti consumer as frick giving you fully priced bare bones game at release and charges you ridiculous prices for new characters punishing you basically for being a day 1 buyer. The fight money grind is slow as frick. They will repeat this model and make it even worse watch
There is more content in the 6 Closed Beta than launch day SFV in all ways but the number of playable characters while having working and quality netcode.
I do think more fighting games need to adopt the "you can use DLC characters in Training even if you don't own them" format but besides that I'm not all that concerned about that aspect of things. SFV's economy was fricked because it was built to be F2P and then made into a retail game relatively deep into development.
>but the number of playable
Yea this is the most important part of the game and what they charge the most that's my point.
The final game is launching with more characters than V did, I only mentioned that the closed beta has less characters than SFV launch to prevent a pedantic reply of "but 8 characters is less than 16"
It's not about the initial number but how many we end up with. I believe SFV ended up with more than double the characters at launch when it finished? Capcom has a past where they withhold content to add it in later as DLC which blows my mind when I see people like you defending them and anti consumer moves like this.
I'm not defending what Capcom has done in the past. It was clear that Alex & Guile were practically done by the time SFV launched, and there was the SFxT on-disc dozen fiasco that hurt their reputation, and a number of other things outside the fighting game genre. That said, the idea that a fighting game these days adds new characters via DLC instead of selling you the same game with a little more content just makes sense; the team shouldn't be putting resources that could be completed before launch into post-launch, but it makes perfect sense to keep making content for the game after it comes out as long as it succeeds. Yes, SFV ended with over 40 characters, but more than half of them began development after the game had been released.
I really don't want this to come off as a defense of SFV or Fight Money, and I think you have a point on pricing ($5/character being the standard is crazy) but you're coming from a place that doesn't really get how a fighting game keeps itself going post-launch these days. A game without support leaves the zeitgeist, and nobody is willing to buy a new separate game that is 80% the same and has a new subtitle when they can just get the balance patch and choose which content to buy.
Then go play older games on fightcade because there will never be a new fighting game without characters as DLC again
I probably will
"crack" is out if you got into the beta or you had a code
basically uses a bunch of scripts to access different modes
troony Black pandering game and Im not trannoid or Black. Its good to know that street fighter always was Black troony game,you truly come home.
Well it did have trannies and Black folks for awhile. I know Ganker doesn't play games but this is common knowledge.
does it have any anime fighter influence? Not asking for iad but any interesting movement, combo extension tools and character gimmicks?
>interesting movement
Drive Rush lets you dash cancel special-cancellable normals or approach from neutral pretty quickly with guaranteed additional frame advantage for the normal you cancel that dash with. You have to commit to a normal so armor/i-frames will kill it if you don't confirm it but it's something.
>combo extension tools
Drive Rush as I said has a lot of tools. Since you can do it from a neutral state some juggles are using it to give combos better links/juggles. Punish Counters and certain supers/EXs give you unique hitstun states including a new tumbling state that reminds me of a Sliding Knockdown.
>character gimmicks?
Half the roster has resource mechanics of some kind, it's kind of crazy. Even Ryu has to keep up his Denjin Charge to make his next special better, while Jamie has to drink, Kim has to replenish her spray cans, Blanka can control his little plushes to attack with his electricity, Juri has Fuuha stocks that allow for special to special cancels, Manon & Lily have unique resources based on the datamines, etc.
One of the lead designers of the game who was hired mid-SFV is a former pro GG Xrd player.
Woshige was the battle director for vanilla SFV and is responsible for trash Blazblue style mechanics like v-skill, v-trigger, and shit normals.
Woshige is MIA for SFVI
My bad then, I thought he was hired later on and figured that the Xrd player adding a bunch of moves and mechanics on top of the basic SF gameplay made sense. I guess it must be some of the new staff they brought on.
>One of the lead designers of the game who was hired mid-SFV is a former pro GG Xrd player.
https://www.eurogamer.net/the-tester-who-changed-street-fighter
He made launch SFV
if you like sjw things, yeah is a good game
Making chuds seethe is a bonus.
Some datamining found the image of Ken's supposed crime in the story. This is why he's on the run.
>looks like shit
>awful roster
>shit soundtrack
The fact that they have fricking westoid VAs makes me hope the same thing happens to SF6 because it actually deserves to fail unlike Bayonetta.
the frick are you talking about
Capcom has gone woke and has hired woke VAs and I really hope they get what they deserve and drag capcom through the fricking mud. Not only that they're releasing this on the Censnoy Station 5 which isn't even a japanese company because they're based in California.
Capcom should have kept the VA's to Japanese Only and made this game a Switch exclusive.
>woke VAs
???
lmao so you're just a deranged nintendie got it
No, it's just Nintendo is the last fricking bastion of Video games without an agenda.
Everything that touches Sony turns to fricking wetoid shit, they've forgotten their japanese heritage much like Capcom.
SFVI is multiplat, you imbecile.
including playstation
And? Sony is not involved in development.
You people are obsessed.
Sony owns Evo, they have a say on what's being presented in Sf6 or it won't get twitch views. It's why many are claiming that SF now has minorities.
That makes zero sense. EVO doesn't have anything to do with DEVELOPING Street Fighter games, you moron.
>It's why many are claiming that SF now has minorities.
>now
You don't play Street Fighter, do you?
Look how ugly they made Chun-Li and Kimberly and tell me a feminist had nothing to do with it.
Ken is even made to be a laughingstock because he's a white male, just like Fred in the new Scooby Doo
>Ken is even made to be a laughingstock because he's a white male
You are legitimately fricking moronic
I cannot wait for the Famitsu sales numbers to come and have you all see it be the lowest selling Street Fighter in Japan. SF6 will be capcom's waterloo
Why would you care about sales numbers unless you are an investor or something? What brainrot has befallen you?
Even if that was true and their lowest point wasn't garbage like Dead Rising 4, Lost Planet 3, Umbrella Corps, BoF6, Marvel Infinite, RE6, in the early-mid 10s, you can't possibly believe that SF6 underperforming in Japan would be disastrous to the company. They could eat half a dozen abject failures on the profits of the last two MonHun games alone.
>Look how ugly they made Chun-Li
???
hips don't lie
Good to know the people that post shit like this know so little about the games they shitpost that they don't know Ken is only 1/4th white. You can see his roots in 6 because he can't afford blonde hair dye anymore.
>You can see his roots in 6 because he can't afford blonde hair dye anymore.
I didn't even think about this, it's good attention to detail
The same Sony-owned EVO that ran this year and didn't say a damn thing when Idom used Laura's skimpiest costume the entirety of Top 8? SFV had Sony money behind it because Capcom was strapped for cash after their various outsourcing failures, and deals with ESPN and the fricking OLYMPICS made them try to clean up the sex appeal (Mika super camera change, no default Cammy/Mika costumes in Top 8 when it's on ESPN, track suit costumes added for that Olympics exhibition that was cancelled for COVID). These are not the circumstances under which 6 is being developed; Capcom is loaded nowadays and has stated that PC is their primary platform now.
>Look how ugly they made Chun-Li and Kimberly and tell me a feminist had nothing to do with it.
Chun's model isn't quite as good as V's but to call it ugly is a massive stretch. Kim has a big fricking forehead but she's got an insane body with ass jiggle implemented in everything.
>Ken is even made to be a laughingstock because he's a white male, just like Fred in the new Scooby Doo
Ken is clearing his name from false accusations and living without his fortune to keep his family safe. He's also 75% Japanese and only dyes his hair blonde, you fricking idiot secondary. Luke & Guile are the blonde white Americans on the roster and both are being portrayed very positively.
>main Platform PC
Capcom is fricked then and turned it's back on Japan much like Sony, nobody plays on PC as much as they do the Nintendo Switch. This is shaping up to be the last Street Fighter. Especially if it's being shilled by people like Maximillian DOOD. Capcom probably can't pay Real Vtubers enough to play this pile of woke media.
>This is shaping up to be the last Street Fighter.
Yeah just like MK X was the last Mortal Kombat, or Tekken 7 was going to be the last Tekken, or Street Fighter V was going to be the last Street Fighter or how Monster Hunter World was going to be the last Monster Hunter,etc.
Monster Hunter World was a legiotimately bad game and ruined the series. The team behind Rise and Sunbreak is despertly trying to save the series by bringing it back to it's roots on a real game platform, but the fricking westoid corruption may have been too much.
Japanese creators need to learn the hard lesson to not export their media outside japan. Unfortunely it may cost too many of them their livelihoods, so many stories will remain untold.
>Monster Hunter World was a legiotimately bad game
too bad it was Capcoms most successful game ever. Even with Ganker calling it woke sjw pozzed garbage.
Iceborne was good outside of Clutch Claw being too centralizing for most weapons. I like Rise & Sunbreak & GU & 3U more than Worldborne but it's not the antichrist of MH people say it is.
>Even with Ganker calling it woke sjw pozzed garbage.
Handler looks like shit but she's the ONLY character that looks like shit. Not sure how she got approved but every single other female NPC in World and Iceborne is very pretty.
Japan has been making the switch to PC and even companies like Square are showing Japanese how to use steam to buy their products
PC will never beat Nintendo.
Nintendo is also first party dominated and there is no point in forcing a third party product, especially one as complex as a fighter.
All Japanese devs are flocking to Nintendo because they have no censorship policy.
Both Steam and Snoy censor the fricking hell out of Japanese creators. Capcom is making a deal with the devil and once they go bankrupt maybe they can be saved by Nintendo buying their IPs
Capcom is still putting out games on Switch anon, they're not giving them the cold shoulder. Ultra SF2 was a launch title, Rise was Switch exclusive for a year, MH Stories 2 was a major Switch release, GnG Resurrection was a timed Switch exclusive, MM11 and all their recent Mega Man and arcade collections launched on Switch, games like Dragon's Dogma got Switch ports. They're even using that cloud streaming gimmick to let Switch owners play RE7/RE2make/RE3make/RE8 since they wouldn't run natively on one.
I honestly believe that if SF6 could run at 60FPS on Switch without a massive visual downgrade, they'd put it out on there.
>I honestly believe that if SF6 could run at 60FPS on Switch without a massive visual downgrade
Then you are incredibly naive. And I'm saying this because moronic is such a mean word.
Nope can’t give them an inch. They’re supporting western companies who pump out globohomosexual propaganda disguised as games. They need to drop PC and Sony as platforms and go only with Nintendo.
Take the Nintendo dick out of your mouth
They’re the only legitimate video game platform left. Zero Hollywood influence, zero california liberals, their headquarters is still located in Japan just like it has been since the company started.
If street fighter wants to be a legitimate fighting game, put it one the platform with the most popular fighting game of all time Smash Brothers. If not, then capcom is peddling woke trash
>the most popular fighting game of all time Smash Brothers.
Yeah okay, we're getting baited.
Look how shit evo did when it didn’t have smash. Switch is the ideal game platform for fighting games
EVO was great though. And the Switch would pull down the quality of online matches massively since most users are on wifi.
>Zero Hollywood influence, zero california liberals,
They are in bed with Universal right now, but you are not here to talk about SF6 so frick off back to whatever Nintendo dick sucking thread you came from
That’s not true they have kept them at an arms distance they know not to trust Westoid trash.
I'm sorry to break this to you anon, but at least 5 mainline Metroid games were made in the west.
Yeah only because Nintendo watches them like a hawk to keep any agenda out. They had to hold their ducking hands through out the whole process
>blonde
women are blonde, men are blond
also this is some gay retcon how was he getting blond hair dye at that dojo in the woods for years and why does he have blue eyes every other game
>this is some gay retcon
I bothered to find a source instead of just calling you a dumbass:
https://streetfighter.fandom.com/wiki/Ken_Masters#cite_note-SFII_(SF2CF)-10
>Born and raised in Japan, he competed in skills with Ryu during his childhood under the tutelage of his master. His maternal grandfather is American which makes him one quarter. He has been the hot blooded of the two since their youthful days, who expresses himself through fighting. Knowing that a fighter would have to prospect their power at some point he could no longer stand by. Therefore he promise a reunion, after he travels to his mother’s homeland of the United States. During his musha shugyō (warrior’s pilgrimage) he had become obsessed with a girl name Eliza, and had lost sight fighting having gained peace of mind. Although his days became brutal, as the event of his reunion would seemingly never come. However, one day Ken receives a computer message that re awakens his fighting spirit. “Wait and see Ryu!”. There might not be anyone that knows more about what the fight itself than Ken.
>from "COMPLETE FILE STREET FIGHTER II" Published by Capcom, Released by Asahi Sonorama , December 30, 1992, p. 49.
I removed the original Japanese text because it made this post too long but it's there if you click the link. There's at least 3 more citations on the page to official Capcom documentation that mention specifically that Ken was born and raised in Japan but had a half-American mother. This is why he's sent to Gouken when he became a delinquent as a teenager and trains with Ryu. He doesn't even move to the US until he's an adult, and then he meets Eliza and starts his family and so on.
It's still being promoted by Sony who is run by Jim Ryan who actively hates Japanese media. If it's being promoted that much it's a fricking Trojan Horse.

Yes he does he has three new projects right now listed on his IMDB and if anything damaged his career it was the rape allegations and not posting about fricking gamergate.
Correction, four new projects
You don't play and have to fall back on shallow politics to voice an opinion. You have no experience or knowledge on the genre, you should go and play games instead of spouting 50 iq /misc/shit
>hired woke VAs
Who in particular?
i'm not sure off the top of my head, Akuma and at least one of the hotter girls. you could look for the leaked group roster portrait and then subtract whoever wasn't in the 18 characters they chose for the base roster, i'm sure it wouldn't be too difficult to find.
It's just another attempt at shoving unrelated twitter VA drama into all threads. Chuds are so fricking obsessed with trying to win the culture war that they see everything as their battleground.
Sometimes I forget half this website is a mental asylum where people fight internet crusades over banal bullshit all day every day
go back
i'll get it when dudley is added, by which time it will be -80% off on steam since fighting games die in two weeks
The new cast are shit. I don't have any interest playing them .
Jamie is cool
Rather have Yang back
Yang's only cool aspects were EX rekka and being voiced by JYB in 4. Jamie's rekka is just as cool as Yang's and is cooler in every single other aspect so I can deal with no JYB.
Yun's a b***h.
>The original cast looks cool
>The new character replaces the old cast and change them to girl version
No ty. Bring back guy and T hawk
>Former US National Fighting Champ, and ex-VP of the Masters Foundation. Accusations of orchestrating a criminal plot have forced Ken to abandon his family and business and go into hiding.
>Anons think being willing to lose everything if it means you can keep your family safe is an attack on white men
I think both 5 and 6 Chun look good.
this image really highlights how much these iterations of the Street Fighter cast look like something out of a Netherrealm game. if Chun-Li got into MK11 tomorrow i feel like this image on the right here is a deadringer.
Looks nothing like an NRS game, but keep forcing this meme. I'm sure you'll get some particularly low IQ anons.
Tbf the drab visuals do remember NRS games a little bit, and people ripping the models have shown that it's just the fricked lighting that SF6 is using
she literally looks like Kitana if Kitana was 5% more anime.
It's uglier and gayer than SF5
You are uglier and gayer than both.
If it does well in japan then is all over, western trash has finally infected and rotted the japanese
Why are you so obsessed with what "Japan" does? Japan has horrible taste in everything. All they play is mobile games and gacha. They should not be a benchmark for taste.
Japan legitimately is the last man fighting the scourge of Globohomo
I'm sorry, but you seem to have brainrot. The only known cure is to get up and walk into traffic right now.
>mobile games and gacha
still better than walking simulators and AAA western shit
>western trash has finally infected and rotted the japanese
I guess you haven't paid attention to Sony over the last decade.
Sony is banished from Japan and the same thing will happen to Capcom.
>Why does it feel like Streetfighter is finally coming back home?
Because a certain moronic hack is no longer in charge of the series. Or even still at Capcom.
That "moronic hack" is the reason why we finally got a mainline Street Fighter sequel that reinvigorated the fighting game genre.
I will give Ono all the credit in the world for fighting for Street Fighter 4 to exist and continuing to push for it even when he was literally being laughed at by his peers.
He's just genuinely really bad at actually making fighting games. Early in development he seriously considered SF4 becoming a turn-based competitive RPG, and early footage/screens of SF4 looked horrible in every sense. There's the old story that 4 was so bad at one point that Seth Killian and a few people on the dev team decided to risk their jobs to walk up to him and tell him how shit it was in its current state.
I remember Seth talking about Ono wanting the characters to have 3d hit boxes? (Like Tekken but not up/down) and how bad of an idea tgat was.
Was Ono involved with SF Online Mouse Generation? The F2P 2008 PC-exclusive SF game where you controlled everything with your mouse and every character was a toy because it was actually a Revoltech advertisement? What a fricking weird game.
It even had an OC named Shin who is a Korean Tae Kwon Do practiotioner that predates Juri by 2 full years. Also guest characters like Cyborg 009, the dude from Detroit Metal City, and Barack Obama. What a fricking weird game that I'm pretty sure is lost media.
Ono was a patsie who Capcom's fighting game division shoveled all the blame onto for SFV and MVCI instead of recognizing their mistakes and learning from them. that's why SF6 is another step towards realism after MVCI and they're still holding back characters at launch to sell me later in a $24.99 Season Pass or whatever.
MvCi wasn't realism. It looked so bad because they just added detail to assets that an amalgamation of really, REALLY rushed models and reused Marvel 3 assets that were meant for a super cartoony and stylized game. SF6 itself is only realistic in terms of its lighting and details on skin and such; proportions and animations are still very much exaggerated.
how the frick is this allowed? it's literally outright foot fetish porn in a mainstream game
what's your point?
it looks like a porn webm someone would post on Ganker, except it's from an official mainstream game. a line is being crossed here, this has never happened before
right? it's pretty fricking great
It's been this way since she was introduced anon
They gotta touch that shit up
There's a cute girl THAWK. ALL MY DREAMS CAME TRUE, THANK YOU SO MUCH CAPCOM, THIS CHARACTER WAS LITERALLY MADE FOR ME.
THUNDERHAWK BROS, WE'RE COMING HOME.
Lily is apparently his daughter too. I don't know why but that detail makes me forgive her pretty standard-looking design that I considered the weakest of the newcomers. I feel like Hawk is the most forgotten and least-liked SF2 character overall so I'm glad that they decided to keep his legacy going as I always kind of preferred him to Gief in 2&4.
>Dumping T Hawk over a girl
You are not my bro, you are a Black person
So is the character creator JUST for the fricking lobby? Nit an actual create a fighter?
It's for the World Tour single player but the beta was to test online connections. You make a character and run around Metro City fighting random NPCs and learning moves from the actual SF characters. There's some customization including stats and passives and shit. No word on if there's a way to use them online, but I imagine if you can it's a separate queue from people using the actual characters.
Same cycle every time
>WOW THE NEW SF LOOKS GREAT
>Oh it's shit
>It's the meta's fault
>It'll be balanced next edition
>Man I wish this was third strike
>Whens SF finally coming back
It gives me heavy 3Strike vibes, which is SOVL as frick. I really hope they nail the landing.
>3strike
God I hate zoomers
Most likely I've been alive longer than you but that's not a good thing because growing old sucks.
I think the game looks great but I'm not picking up many 3S vibes at all besides the two taking the "Street" part of Street Fighter more into account for the music's direction. The parries in both games are vastly different and there aren't any SF3 characters on the base roster or even in the leaks.
Really the lack of Alpha/3 characters is my biggest issue right now. I get 4's newcomers outside of Juri weren't that popular but I feel like people would accept Viper or Hakan returning. Rashid & Ed are fine as V's representatives for a little while but even then they're both DLC when I didn't think Ed was even popular enough to be DLC a second time.
>big breasts gone
>america e-sports zoomer pandering with kimberly and Luke
>only fanservice is goblin Juri and her gross wrinkled wart covered feet
Yeah, nah. Call me when they release another Laura.
Surely she’ll get another chance?
>mostly civil discussion
>except that one guy who is weirdly obsessed with Japan and Nintendo
Reminder that there is nothing smart about playing fighting games even on a pro level
I don't play video games to feel smart, I play them to have fun.
I enjoy my Switch and like that you can use it as a portable training mode for a fighting game but the thing doesn't even come with an ethernet port and NSO is dogshit. I really love Pokken DX though.
Manon reveal at Paris Games Week, fingers crossed
who are the ugly characters up front
I'm happy for you guys. Personally I'm not expecting to get into it even though I'll try it, SF just has never been my type of fighting game. Too slow for my taste. But maybe this one will have enough going on that I'll be able to look past that for once.
>open foot fetish pandering
so does this mean we could get Chun-Li or Mika farting onscreen?
Chun's thighs are so big because her designer had a thigh fetish. So normal people fetishes like thighs and feet are okay, but I wouldn't expect degenerate ones like farting to ever be in a mainstream game. Sorry bro.
hypnosis is my big fetish but unfortunately the whole Shadaloo Doll thing doesn't do it for me. lemme see a pendulum swinging in front of Juri's eyes
My fetishes are pretty standard but not something you could even remotely pretend aren't inserted for fetish reasons.
I'm not getting a scene in World Tour where Chun tries to put on her old denim pants from when she was a cop and can't get them up over her ass and says "But these just fit me last year!" and I accept that.
that shit is the best, although I’m more coming at it from the ass growth than the weight gain angle
Either one works but the two combined is actually the best.
why they always try to attract the Yaoi fans?
This will be the first fighting game I buy at launch and play online. I've always just played them very casually against the CPU, without really trying to learn things.
Is there any guide or whatever about what the frick I should pay attention to and learn? I'm talking about basic concepts here, I really don't know shit about it.
SF is one of the most straight-out FGs out there and usually if you want to learn fighting games it's the place to start. SF is a very all-around series and has a strong focus on fighting game fundamentals and less gimmicky/crazy shit than some other ones, it has an average pace, slow enough to be beginner friendly but fast enough to be satisfying for anyone. combos are short, and the first ones you'll learn are easy to execute, but there's a really steep execution curve between the easiest weak BNBs and the powerful optimized shit. focus on learning the function and value of every move in your kit, frame data, combos, mind games and mixups. you have to commit to your moves more than in Mortal Kombat or Tekken where the gameplay involves a lot of low-risk pokes and trades happening every second in the neutral. in SF, you have to decide if throwing out a move is a good idea, throw it, then check if it connects so you can take your damage and decide if you wanna spend meter and all that shit. more easy to learn and hard to master than some other series.
Hard to say. We don't know how different SF6 will turn out to be. I'd say pick up a fighting game, literally any that looks fun to you, and dabble around for a bit. Maybe learn some terminology while you're at it.
Just press buttons.
If you win it's because of pure skill.
If you lose it's because your opponent was cheating the the game was laggy.
i also really want to like Kim but...she's ugly. sorry. concept art looks fine but yeah. i get that a lot of the outfit is an ethnic thing, but it makes her look so much more fricking awkward. necalli made it work it because they were super fricking long and nicely proportioned with his body structure, but kim's tiny head looks so goofy with her huge hair. it feels like Cap got caught between trying to design a cartoon black girl and a realistic black girl. kind of unfortunate, because a graffiti ninja would be fricking sick (pic related kinda)
I have a mask fetish...
Is Vega in or does he have a new generation successor? I don't want to get burned the same way when Soul Calibur did a similar gimmick and ruined Kilik.
I need to see her trailer.
Her and Manon sound so fun, I need their gameplay
