    Great video. Not many people realize that the 2011 Japanese tsunami had a major detrimental impact to SCV’s development. People often blame the dev’s for SCV feeling rushed and incomplete, but they really should be blaming Mother Nature.

    Ashlotte was confirmed canon earlier in SCV too, she was the one who brought back Astaroth's core to the cult after Maxi killed him which was used to make the mass-produced Astaroths.
    Also, IIRC, there's a Broken Destiny-era character relationship chart that confirmed that the SCIV bonus characters are canon. Incidentally, both Olcadan and Edge Master sensed Angol Fear and were prepared to deal with her, but she left the planet before anything happened.

    • @Silvershire

      I knew Scheherezade was on the relationship chart, but I didn't know about the others. And I forgot all about the Ashlotte plot in SCV! Thanks for the info

    26:25 If I wanted to be SUPER generous, I always assumed the Catching Sophitia bathing scene was a reference to her Greek aesthetic; there's a Greek myth of some dude (I think he gets struck blind or turned into a donkey or something weird) creeping on a nymph bathing in a stream.

    • @channelrandom2225

    I'm surprised there wasn't more trivia about costumes and weapons, like Cassandra with Valkyrie no Boken, Sophitia and Tower of Druaga, or even Mitsurugi and Haohmaru.
    Not even something like Harada himself being in SCV as an NPC you fight.
    I guess that stuff is more surface-level?

    • @Silvershire
      @Silvershire  2 года назад +2

      Well, I had to draw the line somewhere. There’s a ton of SC trivia out there, and this is already one of the longest vids on the channel.

    Its a shame that there's no reference of Calcos, the Oblivion Knight.
    For those who don't remember, Calcos(yep,just like Aeon's surname) was the boss of a dungeon filled with lizardmen in SC2's Weapon Master Mode

  • @jarethgames8909
    @jarethgames8909 2 года назад +10

    Would’ve made sense if they put Lizardman into the game, due to the lizardman race being an option and in one of the stories you fight a lizardman using lizardman’s fighting style

    • @Silvershire
      @Silvershire  2 года назад +7

      There’s also a complete set of Lizardman armor worn by some CaS that can’t be accessed by the player. It really feels like he was planned to be included and got cut late in development.

  • @Kumaclaws

    The great thing about Angol Fear is that Keroro Gunsou’s tone is wildly different compared to soul calibur. It’s like if Tekken included an Invader Zim character

    amazing video, this scratched a huge lore itch ive been having lol. honestly you could probably make a whole half hour video just about acht and the servants of souledge. we have information about zwei in the johan greatblade library entry and we even have information about vier in the "sword of the inquisitor" library entry. we know that sechs also exists but we have no description of them as far as i can tell. my guess is that sechs will be the servant of azola just like how zwei is the servant of durer. and ALSO if you read about the great wolf in the sc6 library, you get to read a description of him that sounds awfully familiar to ein 👀 i am SO excited to see what happens with the servants of souledge

    In the last Witcher book based on chronological order of events (Lady of the Lake) Ciri ends up in universe similar to Soulcalibur so I see connection but to make Geralt so important to make it canon and on main cover brings joy and some negative emotions since I see game is not selling well how it deserves to sell.

    Also just a small rant but i hate that they made viola canon in sc6. Shes the most pathetic excuse of a soulcal character next to zwei. Both of them show the worst aspects of V. Especially from a story aspect as memory loss implemented that way is so lazy. And it really just invalidated all of amys character progression. I hope that since 6 is a different timeline that viola only exists in that different timeline and doesnt actually appear again.

    If sc6's dlc names weren't throwaway, then it's quite sad. I only recently found out that there is unfinished Edgemaster's style in game files, which supposedly crashes game due to weird bugs. This makes atleast 4 dlc characters being cut so during 6's late-ish developement, sadge.
