Personal opinion:
SoulCalibur VI is LEAGUES better than V. I thoroughly enjoyed the story mode, Libra of Soul is fun enough, Versus is good fun, the characters’ voices they changed were better (for the most part), and its a shame that Arcade is just a timed gauntlet now (an unfortunate carry over from V)
As far as the individual characters’ appearances go:
Siegfried: Really likes both armor sets. Glad to see V’s made it into VI via DLC
Nightmare: Think VI is an overall improvement
Tira: I’d probably give the edge to V. Though, her “Cursed Bird” outfit made it in, which I prefer over either of the other 2. Her new voice actress is MUCH better, imo
Yoshimistu: My personal favorite character from the series and I LOVE his appearance in VI
Mitsurugi: I really like VI’s, but I LOVE V’s & was happy to see it make it in, albeit as DLC. Also think the beard is SEXY AF, but I digress.
Ivy: Actually prefer her V costume, just a nice balance between her usual dominatrix look with a nice classy flair to it. Side note, so glad they kept her English voice actress Lani Minella, though it’s a bit distracting playing Skyrim now 🤣
Kilik: Though his character was done dirty in V, the costume was pretty cool. Especially like the blind helmet.
Cervantes: Like VI’s attire more
Hilde: LOVE her armor in V. Looks absolutely phenomenal & I wish it wasn’t wasted in such a crappy entry in the series
Raphael: definitely prefer VI’s over V’s
Voldo: prefer VI’s over V’s, but think V’s alternate costume puts em both to shame
Maxi: They are so similar, but I think I’ll give the edge to V’s. Just a bit more detail and I like the fur collar
Astaroth: Prefer VI’s
Sophitia: Definitely like VI more, though Elysium’s costume has some cool qualities, the visor in particular
Extra:
Setsuka: They included her SoulCalibur IV costume as DLC, but honestly, kinda prefer her new attire in VI (with the exception of her “high-heel clogs.” I get the East meets West theme, but just like the regular ones better. That’s a nitpick though
Cassandra: Her SoulCalibur IV costume was included as well and like both looks equally.
Amy: Again, her SoulCalibur IV costume was included as DLC as well and I definitely prefer it over her new attire.
Taki: the exception and reason said ALMOST every voice was improved. I’m sorry, Taki’s English voice actress in VI is not as good or natural sounding as IV’s
Would‘ve loved to see Yoshimitsu, Raphael, Ivy, Kilik, Xianghua, Maxi, Talim, Seong Mi-Na, and Voldo get proper high-quality & character-specific alternate costumes, be attires from previous games or something new, but don’t think that’s likely...
At least Siegfried and Mitsurugi got previous costumes (and the Enlightened One’s Set seems tailor made for the latter)
The Tiger Lilly Set seems made for Taki (and Id actually recommend keeping her default unitard and face mask, looks great with the armor over it)
The Wretch’s Set works perfectly with Nightmare
The Sanctified Set fits perfectly for Zasalamel and so does the Dark Knight set
Also, sorry for the essay 😅
Yea but V's design and aesthetic is way better, VI is diluted for people who dont like complexity. Dont get me wrong I love it but the anime finery of V is beyond most games in the last ten years. And before people start I am not talking story, I am talking world building and design.
@@jabberjayjay
You Do know that both Games are technically the same, World Building included.
@@danielramsey6141 they are not the same on world building, half the cast is new due to a huge time jump and lean on noughties Naruto anime stylings. Design was wild and even had the Bayonetra designer on main designs, VI is a lesson in safe design and side boob, it's still good but it does not compare.
@ Brandon Haselden I feel like they’re slowly adding each costume that was in V, honestly i would love to see if they add them all in eventually. Especially ivy’s. (I saw someone try to recreate it with improvised parts but i would love to see something other than her revealing leotard that she currently has) i also feel like they should add more hairstyles since the CAS is severely lacking in diversity in that department compared to V.
@@nightwolf9375 Yea, my biggest gripe with VI is that the vast majority of the creation parts we’re getting as DLC were in previous titles. Definitely would like to see more hair styles and perhaps some faces/misc pieces to give characters longer beards.
And I definitely agree with the part about Ivy. I personally LOVED her alternate attire for II. I get the whole dominatrix motif, but I’ve never particularly cared for fan-service (a nitpick I have the series in general, especially seeing that said fan-service is almost exclusively done with female characters -_-). Her alt from II just made her look like a commanding badass with a classy flair to it.
Would love to see some of Yoshimitsu attires. Whilst VI’s is my personal favorite of his in the series, I’ve always loved his looks & would be nice to use em in VI
Fun fact: In SCV, Siegfried is voiced by Roger Craig Smith, the current VA for Sonic, and now in SCVI he's voiced by Kirk Thornton, the current VA for Shadow.
Kirks voice is supreme. Fits Siegfried wonderfully. If the Soul series continue, I do wish he stays as his voice.
@Suckit 92 Correct
As much as I love those two, the overall best to me was Crispin Freeman in SCIII. I forget much about III but he nails the character.
In sc3 is dubbed by Crispin Freeman who dubbed Itachi Uchiha
Siegfried literally went to the darkness
I like how in soul calibur 5, they were like "Let's make Ivy less revealing." and then in 6 they were like "You know what? Screw it, lets give her old look back and make her outfit more revealing." xD
She's a thot again, sadly it seems that's what ppl want
They were so based for that.
I still remember people crying about it lol
On even numbered games, they give her very revealing outfits
I’ve noticed a trend: when they cover Ivy up, it’s a bad SC game, and when they make Ivy’s outfit barely cover anything, it’s a good one.
Well, that reminded me in V they killed Sophitia. Kept Cassandra lost in Astral Chaos. Retired Taki, Mina, Setsuka and Xianghua for being over 30. Transformed Kilik into a mimic character. Forgot Talim and Zasalamel existed. Transformed Amy into a completely different character and although Raphael is playable, they made him Nightmare's new body host meaning he wouldnt be playbale if there was a direct sequel. And in the end, somehow, they thought the fanbase wouldnt loose their shit about it. Thank God Okubo steped in and decided to reboot the timeline for VI.

TAKI WAS MY EVERYTHING OMG 😭
@@acopperheart I BET YOU NEVER SEEN TAKI LIKE THIS BEFORE CHECK OUT THIS VIDEO ruclips.net/video/C2flNkEoKQc/видео.html
Amy Aged. Thats why she looks Different
It didn't reboot. We now Viewing The Events of a New Sc Timeline.
SoulCalibur V's stages are splendid
while those of sc6 are really disgusting (apart from 2 or 3 ... maybe ....)
It's a shame you arent able to expand and explore the rest of the environment. I've tried. If you and your opponent dance like eagles near stage edges I figured it might've been possible to glitch the cinematic cam to pull some strings. I guess this game is finite though with its moves but if only you were a foot taking a baby step.
I wish they would bring back infinite stages. Those were always my favorite cos then you wouldn't rely on wall combos or ring outs. The games would become so intense. Lol.
And that’s it for SCV 😂
Indeed. In the sixth game we have lots of characters, but never enough stages.
can't believe how good 5 still looks holy shit
SCV got a lot of things wrong, but the visuals absolutely aren’t one of them. The game’s visual hold up remarkably well, the stages were genuinely beautiful, and I actually prefer a good number of V’s designs over VI’s
@@SkeleGem agreed
the problem is that SC6 is the one that looks rather weak for a PS4 game
I love that SC VI designs are reimagined throwbacks to SC1 on Dreamcast.
Its Sc1 Timeframe in a New Sc Timeline
I prefer VI overall, and that goes for most of the designs too, but man V’s lighting actually still looks better than VI’s.
V's illumanation are more fanciful, VI's are more realistic, I prefer V too.
I agree. I think that both soul calibur IV and V had a much better graphic for their time compared to VI
@@talesoflars VI was definitely on a low budget. Hopefully they're convinced the series is worth spending on now.
@@Negius I agree with this
@Jett Leon.S Sadly it sold way under their expectations, so i dont think VII is gonna happen
SCVI is such a huge improvement. The critical finishes, the story, the content in the museum, it all takes me back.
Seriously though why the f*ck did they do away with VS Team Battle? Used to love team battle in SCII, would take zero effort for them to include it.
@@maxdowney3717 my complaint is more to how sexualized the characters are. See Ivy from V and her counterpart in VI. And how you can literally strip them to their bikini.
@@hyena3028
You can also strip the men down to their undies which I think is funny though to cause extra humiliation.
@@maxdowney3717 ikr. Its really ridiculous how you can strip armor off a person in combat. Tbh I really prefer the clothing damage system from DoA instead. Their armor or clothing don't get ridiculously stripped but dirt, sweat and water accumulates on their attire and at most they get torn or damaged, but not stripped.
@@hyena3028 Yeah, but Tira actually has more clothes than V so I think that's just because of Ivy's overall vibe
SCV is the "oldest" chronologically in the saga! I loved it!
I just commented about that lol because usually when we compare a game sequel or trilogy the characters sort of seem the same poly aged may be a year or two but soul caliber five these characters it’s been almost 20 years lol so I think it’s kind of funny how people are here it’s like oh my God they look so different yeah because they were old info caliber five and soul caliber six is like at the very beginning when they first started but overall I really do like it makes you appreciate them more
I miss the soul caliber 3 story mode and character creation, felt like there was a lot more variety.
Same here
I haven't played this one yet but all the ones before. SC3 was the last one I truly enjoyed. Been disappointed with each entry ever since.
Agreed 1000%. SCIII had the best single-player modes in the whole series. I miss those days when fighting games weren’t so online/tournament-oriented.
Totally agree 💯
Absolutely agree. Soul Calibur 3s create a character with modern graphics would be legendary. No more of that "this item conflicts with this other piece for whatever stupid reason" crap that's been in the games since 4.
Bring back Chronicles of the Sword which was amazing as a single player mode or even with friends who take the controller when their guy is up for battle.
Ah, I still remember SCII Raphael. Before they turned him into a musketeer Dio Brando.
Same !
SC2 best Raphael and Nightmare designs
@@ALASTOR101. you're a man of culture
Sc2 and Sc6 Rapheal are both Human
This was cool to watch, thx for taking the time to work on it 👍
4:20 what you came here for...
That’s not Voldo.
...well it's not Taki but i guess i can accept a sub.
Great Number
You Know me so well !!!
thanks
even soul calibur 4 is graphically good in its time
I would love to see more comparisons like this with the rest of the games in the series.
From what I recall of SCV... there's a lot that felt incomplete somehow, whereas SCVI just did everything flashier and more well-done.
Project Soul put their "Soul" in the game... and I can't wait to see what's next.
Ivy's outfit in SoulCalibur 5 is my favourite. It's the most elegant, sexy and showing her noble family side at the same time. Nothing against the others though.
For some reason a lot of people had a problem with her wearing a jacket (not enough skin, I guess), but it's my favorite outfit. It mixes her usual 1P outfit with the masculine 2P outfits from the first two games.
I agree with you
same here
@@53subscribersnovideos35 I also liked her masculine suits from the older games, made Ivy seem more unique
agreed
Love the comparison man...
No one can beat the character design of SoulCalibur III
Ya..sword master
In my humble opinion, SC III is the pinnacle of the series. Still fun today
I think Sc2 and SC6 have the best designs
Sc2 and 5 are the best design wise to me
Aggree, but 5 is a close second.
Great work mate
Amazing video my friend! Big Like!
How awesome!!!!!!!! You should totally build on this and compare the other games in the series like II, III, and IV. You could also break down the comparisons to shared moves or elements between all games. IV remains my favourite by far.
Immaculate pledge always a classic nice touch man
7:36 oooooof
I love soul calibur 6, but soul calibur 5s lighting just looks better to me, especially on the hair, SC6s hair looks like paper lol.
While hair looks better in V, overall the lighting is better in VI. The lighting in V looks off sometimes. VI’s lighting seems more natural and like the characters are really in the stage.
But in V, some surfaces on of the characters don’t look naturally lit so they pop out. Biggest example being Cervantes on the ship at night.
@@Yukikaze617 off doesn't mean bad. If we have/live in in "nature" why not to travel to another dimension/sun/gravity especially when we can? [for video games]
@@Yukikaze617 i actually liked 5's lighting better than 6. while the latter has a better feel of realism to it, it doesn't capture the sense of what looks presentable. kind of like. kind of like taking a bad picture because the lighting realistically puts you in a bad angle
I'd have gone with plastic over paper.
everyone who are having modern TV/Phone [after TFT] with color presets of High Intensity and somewhat Duller Colors, will like "look" of SC6 with Higher Intensity, and SC5 with Duller Colors [but it should be a good display, with deep blacks]. With default/popular/wide_spread TFT screens SC5 should look winning
Character design : SC6
Lighting : i prefer something in between, so i cant choose on this
Stages : SC5 for me
the only thing i miss from SC5 are Viola, Zwei, Aeon.. i dont include Ezio, because as much as i knouw collab characters do not return..
Zwei and Viola have an interesting weapon and playstyle, which makes character creation better overall.. especially viola, remembering countless time i make a character out of her..
Well Viola is in SC6, it's just Amy. But I wish they would've retcon that and let Viola be her own character.
IMPRESSIVE video.
You're very skilled to compare 2 or more games! Most of the other channels doing it cannot capture it so well.
The split screen is a good option! I hope you will do more about Fighing Games!! 2D or 3D!
Cheers!
Thanks ndf00,
I hope to continue uploading this type of comparison :)
@@YOYODODO Yes! Good news! My favourite are when it's about fighting games or similar.
Wow it's amazing what a jump from 720p to 1080p (and other graphical/performance variables) with details! Both look extraordinary, but still the difference is there 🥰
Nah I did 720p from 360 to 1440p on Xbox one X instead of 720p again on base Consoles or 900p PS4 and went over the PS4 Pro’s 1080p for this game
ruclips.net/video/3hAkJTOEwq8/видео.html
Shocking how good 4 and 5 looked...at first glance, it holds up to 6 just fine...
They were graphically even better in almost every way except resolution (unless you played on OG Xbox One, which was 720p, the same as SCV). I'm not sure if it was the change to UE4 that made them struggle or something, or maybe the low budget, but graphically, SCVI is seriously unimpressive.
Will you do one with SoulCalibur 4? I would love to see that as well!
A video with 3 games would be ok
Siegfried was specially so hot in 5
Siegfried originally had blue eyes, then he had brown in V, and then back to blue in VI...I wonder why.🤔
@@Arnell_Long ok but I wasn't talk about his eyes....
Anyway, just happens the same with Amy
@@noecases5940 Lol I never said you were talking about his eyes, I brought it up because I never paid attention to his eyes in SC5 until this video.
After having wielded (and subsequently lost) both Soul Edge and Soul Calibur, the color in his eyes dissipated.
I personally prefer SoulCalibur VI over V, only one thing I disclike in VI is the blurry background stage, I wish they will make it better in the next installment.
I don't even play this game, just clicked for the thumbnail.
U should try it. Soul Calibur is an amazing series if u like fighting games.
You're not the only one
VI's fighters and character design with V's lighting and level design 😩
Is there any way you could also do a comparison from Soul Calibur 4, 5 and 6?
4:20 WELCOME
6 has overall better character design and etc but the lighting on 5 is to die for 😍
I thought 5 had better design, specially Maxi, Hilda, Asteroth and I just love that samurai skull mask.
Love that they cast real-time and crisper light and shadows in SC6, which is more evident in Maxi's part 9:23
I think you should have included Amy and Viola (especially when you are including Sophitia/Elysium), especially when they are the same person, and also because we can notice that Amy exactly wears Viola's costume, just adding the extra skirt and changing the the cape for the hood.
Hope there's gonna be a SP3 including Viola (also Zwei, Lizardman and Revenant PLS)! She's such a unique character 😍
Lighting makes Ivy's hair look so much better in SC5 at 4:29 :(
Man I’ve put over a 1,200 hours into SC6 and I still love this game enough to watch videos like this. I’m so happy that SoulCalibur 6 even happened and that I was able to be a part of it.
At 1:22 , is it just me or is nightmare saying "Salty B****h"?
LMFAO
Only say soul edge
I think it's SUBMIT!
I'd love a comparison between the styles that weren't the same character but used the same weapons.
Taki/Natsu
Xinghua/Lexia
Etc
I really hope Bamco has the faith to do a SCVII with a proper budget for overhauling its assets. They've been living off the SCIV baseline for over a decade. SCIV and V looked great for the time, but damn, 6 years on and you'd be hard pressed to tell which game is the sequel with V and VI.
And damn, Mitsurugi doesn't get any sun in VI. Boy looks more vampire than Raphael.
Thank you
cool video
Nice vid
This makes me want to play 4 even more now.
Force Lightning
Most character designs in V were either hit or miss.
None of them look bad but Some are better than others.
The graphics on both look good
it is exactly the same tho.
What is the 1st song used in the video?
I hope SC6 did well enough that a sequel comes out eventually. If it does they should update some of the animations though.
It didn't. Game is trash
I wish soulcalibur 4 could be in this too
Fun fact: In both SC5 and SC6:
- Ivy has same beginning and winning quotes
- Same to Raphael
And characters have some of the same quotes and animations as they did in SC2.
@@Arnell_Long And SC4 with Kilik
@@destroyermcw626 Facts
Their the Same Person
Do you plan on comparing the older games like you did in this one?
Hi Zamyria, I will probably make a new comparison
I didn't know that Sophitia was in Soul Calibur V under a different name.
It's not really Sophitia it's like the spirit of Soul Calibur disguised as Sophitia
@@mc_hunny1926
Kinda like Inferno for Soul Edge.
@@danielramsey6141 but I think Inferno is Cervantes. Just check soul calibur 1 intro. Or soul edge
@@noecases5940 No! Look up your Edge/Calibur lore! Just because Cervantes moveset was used by Soul Edge, doesn't mean he and Soul Edge are the same!
Soul Edge can freely Possess anyone it can manipulate/corrupt, and it can Manifest its Inferno form as it does to both Nightmare and Cervantes since they were its Host! Even without a Host body, Inferno Will manifest itself from Soul Edge to Be the LAST GUARD, to defend itself! The Same goes for Soul Calibur.
@@danielramsey6141 but Cervantes took away his face showing a skeleton, that's why I thought were the same
I think I much prefer the V designs and the grittier, more textured look. The VI designs feel way too clean and a lot of the crit edges seem too colourful and over produced to me.
I agree. SC5 is the weakest SC game in my opinion in terms of a "whole package" Soul Calibur game but the graphics/lighting/shadowing was gorgeous and a step up from the dramatic darker color/lighting from SC4.
What if the remake of Soul Calibur 3 had:
- Move around like Soul Calibur Legends. But with better camera view.
- Same moveset as Soul Calibur 3.
- Night Terror, Colossus, and Abyss appear as bosses in Chronicles of the Sword. The player level cap is 99 but they are over 100, each having 1k to 5k hp. They may also march towards your base.
I would make the Bosses Playable in a Special mode. Sc3 Arcade Edition had Hwang, Li Long and Amy as Playable Characters with more Moves
I love the Soul Calibur series!!!!!
What is the name of that soundtrack when it reaches Kilik?
Late but I wanna know this too
5 characters were WAAAY BETTER...

2. Soulcalibur VI: Fortune Favors the Brave
This might b a lil off subject but I know creation systems that bought back into 6 added new things like character race and certain blades u can actually change patterns...but, they need to add more intro poses like the main characters and not say 1 same thing over for an example cold assassin's voice quotes says; "You will die." They should give the creations more intro poses/intro diagues like the main characters have it'll make creations way more fun not saying it's not fun but making a good point.
5 has the skeleton dlc, and a lot of the races are just a convenient preset on customizing humanoid voice/textures/costume parts. i think the only real addition here is the lizardmen race. at the very least the costume parts don't break like cotume parts like in 5 with having this format
I still think 3 had the best create a soul in the entire series.
First off, there was no restrictions on what clothing items can be worn together, you could mix and match everything. The restrictions in 5 and 6 really annoy me.
3 also had jobs which meant even your created characters moveset was different from the main characters.
Chronicles of the Sword was an amazing mode to use your custom creations in, it was way better than 6's Libra of Souls, 5 didn't really have anything.
Clothing items seemed to fit the characters better in 3. Alot of the items in 5 and 6 just don't fit the characters very well and are almost unusable.

Can you do the comparison of Soul Calibur 6 with Soul Calibur III?
Please?
do one with 4 inside too!!or a 3 vs 4 vs 6 to see the differeces beetween consoles
SC3 to SC4 was a massive jump.
SC4/SC5 to SC6 was one step forward, one step back. SC6 technically had higher resolution (unless you were playing on an OG Xbox One), but the textures weren't much of an improvement, geometry was about the same, and the lighting was a downgrade from SC5.
Soul Calibur V with Nightmare’s red hair is perfect.
Nightmare doesn't use Siegfried's body in SCV. He doesn't in SCIV either but it's Inferno using the Nightmare armor with help from Zasalamel.
I miss the character creation and mode of SoulCalibur 3

Wait did Xianghua now appear in SCV? I don't see her anywhere.
@Cauldron-Born I miss Xiba. I don't care how many hate him, his style was more fun for me mainly because his personality was funnier. Lol
Secondly, Xiba in V was basically like a mix of Kilik and Seong-Mina to me.
@Cauldron-Born fun fact: when you're playing as Kilik in 5, if you get Xiba, it actually gets replaced with Kilik's SC4 move list
Name song please
Geeez Raph's character design was all over the place in V. Vampire? Fencer? Undead Whats going on here?
SC VI is a retold story from sc 1 to 3 I guess (maybe I forgot) and the continuation is sc 5 would like to see they added the alternate costume and characters from sc 5 if possible some of em for free cuz it hurts my wallet with those expensive dlc
its actually a reboot/alternate timeline like Mortal Kombat 9
Soul Calibur 6 Cassandra fight Cassandra from after Soul Calibur 4 whereSophitia dies and she is trapped in Astral Chaos
There are lots of SC3 characters that are not on SC5 and SC6, why?
Which one is supposed to look better?
I love all the copy pasted faces. It's easily recognizable consistency. I like that.
One thing I will stand by till the day I die is that SoulCalibur V had much better music than VI. I feel like the game overall would have been a masterpiece if it weren’t for Namco
I kinda miss the alt costumes older games had as 2P, 3P or 4P options
Just noticed what was missing from SCVI Nightmare, his red hair
Pretty sure the red hair didn't show up until his SCII P1 outfit. Back in SCI, he didn't have the hair, but instead he had that unicorn horn sticking out of his helmet, and since SCVI is based off of SCI, I guess that's why they went with that design instead (although it's not like other characters didn't receive major redesigns that looked nothing like their SCI appearance).
I always did like Nightmare's SCII appearance the best. And despite never appearing with that look again in the series, it seems the developers must have a fondness for it too - as the silhouette of SCII Nightmare was used in SCIII's title art, as well as being used for Project Soul's logo. Although I recall you could buy SCII Nightmare's helmet (red hair and all) in SCIV as DLC.
@@N.i.E.M.O I mean I would accept that if the game was more SC1-esque, but since the base roster already has characters like Raphael, Tira or Zasalamel (along with the whole redesign mumbo jumbo you mentioned) it's weird that they would decide to be somewhat faithful to the original design of a single character, specially because (at least imo) that red hair was just a really cool visual for nightmare, I used to think that was meant to be Siegfried's corrupt hair, but after S3-5 ruined my head canon since those nightmares aren't Siegfried anymore
I wish they re-release Soul Calibur 2 on Switch. Out of the three characters that of the main platforms exclusives, Link made much more sense and fits the rooster
My thoughts exactly!
Anyone know why i cant safe my game..pc
Glad SCV is getting some love.
Yeah Maxi Yeah! I’m having an eyegasms.
You mean is hot?
In training mode, strikes like k.b or b + g appear, knowing that the most is pressing together, the point would be what?
Even by the standards of SC6 with the longer and flashier supers, Nightmare's critical finish/super is still one of the best in the game. Like easy top 3, 10 out of 10.
Easily the best since it can also be unblockable with a slightly longer charge-up.
