Street Fighter 6

[The Decline]

Bison, my main is coming out in 1 month eh? And he looks cool AF, so I'll definitely need to get him to master... ER DLC comes out too, and SMTV... Uh oh.

Not sure about the KOF characters, I'm sure they'll look great but I'm not a fan of guest characters in general, and this is way too early in the lifespan of SF6 to introduce guest character.

M. Bison comes out later this month, on the 26th.

So he's a Raoh ripoff now?

Could be. When I saw the horse Raoh was the other thing I was thinking of. But it may also be a reference to the live action ‘90s movie. Could be both.

If the thinking is Fist of the North Star, it’s pretty funny given M. Bison is based on a villain from Riki-Oh.

You know that really violent Honk Kong movie Riki-Oh: The Story of Ricky?



Well, that movie is based on a really violent manga that ran in Business Jump (it was Jump’s Seinen magazine) called: Riki-Oh

Riki-Oh has a character in it named Washizaki. He doesn’t appear in the live action movie, but he shows up in the second OVA.

M. Bison as he originally appears in Street Fighter 2 is based on that Washizaki character from the Riki-Oh manga. Although M. Bison looks more like Henry Silva as Washizaki.

If you’re asking who Raoh is, he’s one of the big villains in Fist of the North Star, and the main villain of the anime movie from the ‘80s.

Thanks, that was interesting. I haven't heard of any of this stuff except Fist of the North Star.

That movie looks insanely terrible.

Could have at least used his "Lost Power" desperation move as a LVL3 super instead of that overdesigned garbage. Seriously, why does every fighting game today must have completely overdesigned and 20 second long supers? Horrible.

Got Chun Li to masters, was way easier then I expected. I can't even do any optimal combos. Last boss was a Master Manon that used Modern and gave me 205 points for a win for a total of +410. Maybe I'll try Terry now.

The face is wrong :/ Mai is supposed to look like JULIA

This looks more like a Realdoll.

 

[Assisted Living Godzilla]

I’d guess the face changes by release. It looks like they’re going for a Mai based on how she looked in the old Fatal Fury games. Her bangs being flat across the eye instead of coming down to points, and her hair being darker, is very Fatal Fury.

 

[Melcar]

Odd that they went with that style. Would have expected at least a Capcom vs SNK Mai.

 

[Assisted Living Godzilla]

Capcom vs SNK was made by a completely different team at Capcom. The Capcom vs SNK games were Hideaki Itsuno’s last fighting games before getting moved over to Devil May Cry. He didn’t work on the Capcom vs SNK games with him, but I did notice Yoichiro Ikeda (who’s been working with Itsuno since he came on DMC, he was lead designer on Dragon’s Dogma and DMC5) did work on Street Fighter 6.

The thing Street Fighter 6 is doing with these SNK characters is making them more like their Fatal Fury version. Like Terry has a reference to the Fatal Fury Line System in one of his moves.

 

[Melcar]

Her ass is too big.

Apparently I haven't touched the game in over a year by now. How time flies. Has anything been done to make drive rush less braindead yet?

This looks more like a Realdoll.

It almost looks like they made her in the character creator instead of using a fully custom model.

My guess is the face was made in the character creator instead of having a fully custom one, and that’s why they barely showed it off. Because yeah, the face looks like it was made in the games character creation system. It looks like an unfinished version of the character.

They made some scaling adjustments a while ago but not much else. The game still has a huge problem with the system mechanics both drive rush and perfect parry and they've been really slow with the updates. In fact, in general, the game just seems like it's in maintence mode with how nothing is released except avatar costumes and that shitty battle pass. They don't even bother with costume 4 which would give them quite the revenue.

 

[Biscotti]

That sucks, but I can't say I'm surprised. They really designed themselves into a corner by making drive rush and parries so dominating.
