I don't know if it's been mentioned by anyone else, but i think part of the reason single-player content is so important these days is because playing online is now a twofold cost on consoles, cuz you have to be able to afford internet alongside ps plus and xbox gold. Singleplayer content is the stuff that allows people who may not be able to afford those kinds of monthly payments to still have a reason to play the game
I know I’m in the minority, but my favorite genre is fighting games yet I absolutely hate playing against other people. I guess for me, the fun has always been learning combos and seeing arcade endings / story mode. I would rather thrash the CPU with fancy combos and have fun that way. I’m way more hyped for SF6 now because of the addition of all the NRS style single player stuff.
I’m really Glad Ken isn’t going through a “divorce,” arc but instead a bad ass arc with him trying to clear his name after being framed. You really don’t wanna a fun character like Ken to go through a depressing Mid life crisis. But damn Ken’s intro in the trailer went hard🔥
Having 18 characters this time is forgivable here especially when the other content more than makes up for it. - Open World Story Mode - Customizable Avatars with their own custom movesets. - Fully Playable Retro Arcade Games (MegaMan The Power Battle's in the line-up to my surprise! :D) - A Mode with Hazards and Gimmicks Turned On - Actual Minigames (The vehicle destruction one is always funny, ngl.) - And even with the SF2 nostalgia, 7 of the base roster characters are new faces. Meaning that the roster is more balanced with more newcomers without distancing too far from series faces. All in all, good job making up for the smaller number here. You guys DEFINITELY put much more effort into this game.
As if 18 is a knock against it? Lol. The foundation for this game is *incredibly* strong. The roster is going to be absolutely massive by the time anyone even thinks of considering Street Fighter 7. And why would you? You can keep adding more content, more modes, more create a character items, more main character costumes, improving graphics like SFV did over time. This game has potential to last until like 2030. 18 characters at launch is just perfect considering what potential we have here.
Has there been any announcement that directly states that the custom characters have "custom" movesets? I generally feel that the custom characters will just inherit the entire movesets from their current master. I honestly would love customizable movesets, but I imagine that would be a nightmare to balance for online play.
I don't think Dee Jay is THAT weird a pick per se. He IS an upbeat musician (heh), and his career in music coincides well with the big city setting and the urban hiphop themes they got going on this time around. He's quite the suitable choice for this entry, and being one of my favorite characters, I'm glad to see him back! Now I'm just curious to see how they update his moves
Would love if they had more SF3 characters. That seems like a no brainer. Wouldn't have minded Sakura and a couple of Alpha, Final Fight and/or Rival School characters
I would have loved sf3 characters but it seems like they're playing it real safe with their roster choice. average people don't want Necro or Remy, they want to create a character and do blanka moves
Sakura is definitely in the game . The custom characters during on eof the fights does her version of tatsumaki and1 of her other moves. And I'm guessing every move you can get as custom is from a playable character
As an addition to Torgi talking about single player content, for capcom to maybe span their audience wider then hear me out... In Street Fighter 6 they mention how your custom character can grow by strengthening your bonds with the world warriors who are the one's who teach you your special moves, the draw of a lot of street fighter characters and any fighting game character in general is their background and personalities. it can also be for their moveset's, but there's a lot of story to these characters that can get people hooked on them. if we want more small details in Street Fighter then what we need is... A Dating sim Mechanic when you interact with the world warriors as your custom character. No I'm not kidding, Rival Schools already had this in mind with Nekketsu Seisyun Nikki school sim mode. also a good way to segway more Rival Schools characters hopefully as DLC because everyone loved Akira Kazama. Also, all the characters have grown older? great, give me older and graduated Batsu or Kyosuke, Capcom. they have to look dope. Plus, if we really want to expand on the personalities of some of our favourite world warriors, be that getting to know their favorite foods, their culture, them recalling past events, personal ideologies that reflect on their own fighting style. just something to really good with a hint of sweetness that is the juice that jumps off the meat that could be what Street Fighter 6's content ends up being! Maybe I'm being too hopeful, street fighter hasn't really always had the best writing or naritive, looking at past examples- but Capcom has been changing too, so maybe that can change... just maybe...
18 characters made from scratch (Luke aside, though he was made for SF6 first then reused for SFV) isn’t a bad base roster at all. It’s just that the leaks colored a lot of our expectations, which Max mentioned in his video was the problem. Also, I’m liking Lily’s redesign compared to the one that leaked. As for World Tour, I might have to use pad for it given that we have full camera controls with the right stick. And regarding Story Mode, it’s being combined with Arcade Mode.
Having 18 characters this time is forgivable here especially when the other content more than makes up for it. - Open World Story Mode - Customizable Avatars with their own custom movesets. - Fully Playable Retro Arcade Games (MegaMan The Power Battle's in the line-up to my surprise! :D) - A Mode with Hazards and Gimmicks Turned On - Actual Minigames (The vehicle destruction one is always funny, ngl.) - And even with the SF2 nostalgia, 7 of the base roster characters are new faces.

Street Fighter 6 is MASSIVE, the starting roster couldn't be particular big, but the game is so big even with the limitations of the base roster that you already have a full game without counting the roster. I mean, I believe this game could only include the World Warriors and it could already be perfectly a $40 game, and that is lowballing the value. Though, I wonder if choosing the World Warriors to be part of the base roster wasn't just nostalgia, but in order to set up the archetype of moves that you can learn in the story mode, after all the playable characters in World Warriors gave you different tastes of character archtype.
I'm fine with the roster, but it's actually so funny to me that the only non-SF2 legacy character in the game is Juri. No SF3 either in a game that's past it in the timeline. That being said, I'm really excited for SF6!
I feel like its finally gonna be the best SF game since Alpha 3... Its really fitting that Capcom kept piggybacking the characters ages, making prequel after prequel to 3rd Strike, and finally decided to move its story forward now that the children who played SF in the 90s aré all around 30 (some few pushing 40), so now we can say our beloved fighters grew up along with us...
You know sitting on it, I think a big difference between the release of V and VI kind of comes down to how Capcom handled buffering the delay. Street Fighter V was rushed out the door both to meet Capcom's fiscal deadline but to also move onto the next game for their CPT season. Rather than similarly rushing VI out the door, Capcom this time sat back and made an extra "emergency" season of DLC for Street Fighter V to compensate for the delay. People sometimes forget, but Season 4 was actually planned to be the final season of DLC for V.
There is quite a bit of misinformation regarding development for sf6 in this video What you are mentioning as scrapped years of development that is what's true for sf5 not 6 Sf5 was intended to be a hyper realistic sf game kinda like tekken (u can even find a dev screenshot of that version if u look for it ), That was scrapped from the years of development for sf5 and they had to rush shit up to get something on stage You can search for an article by eventhubs about what Matsumoto said in an interview about sf6 development which stated that it started from 2018 and that he wrote a 92 page proposal about battlehub and world tour and fighting ground Which basically almost none of that has changed from beginning till the end There is also an another article i think either about Matsumoto or nakayama saying that this has been the most joyful development process that have ever been through So what you said about developing entirely 3 different game modes essentially in just 3 years or so doesn't make any sense and its virtually impossible
I had a feeling that the team was trying to mold Metro City into SNK South Town. Garou had all these neat locations that all took place in different areas around town, including Marco's forest which was on the outskirts. CAPCOM even revealed that Honda was opening a chanko-style restaurant in Metro City, so I think this theory holds weight (pun intended). Only challenge to that may be Blanka's stage, so I'm still waiting for more details
Great vid Thorgi SF6 is really shaping up to be a masterpiece. Please do a SF6 DLC wishlist and in the near future please to do a Marvel vs DC build the roster
I agree. I think the roster is kind of bland. I love the whole cast design, everyone looks great. But some of the choices just speaks safe. Having the original 8, which is nice to see on paper, I could’ve done without. The same number of new characters, are the same of the originals lol. I think Capcom should have started with more new characters,and characters we have not see in a while make a comeback. They PSTD about what happened in SF3, that their going with what works. There returning characters are fan favorites like Juri and Rashid. Their playing it safe like I said, and it’s shame. Because there’s making some really interesting and inventive ways of making this a unique fighting. I wish the aspect of thinking would have reflective the rooster. It’s the worst roster ever, but I believe they could have done a better job.
Street Fighter 5 was made in a shoe string budget. Capcom had almost no money and had to basically finance it through Sony. Capcom is now in a way better place financially. So they’re able to put more money into the production of SF6. Also the new dev team has a much better vision for the game in general. Last few seasons of SFV has been pretty good with them in charge
18 characters is, if my research is correct, the second largest launch roster in the history of the Franchise, if you treat rereleases as updates As for the World Warrior Cast, I think E. Honda is the only one that relies on Nostalgia. Dhalsim and Blanka are both so unique that them coming back is entirely justified
I'm a fan of amalgamating universes, where things from other franchise show in in other franchise worlds in a way that make sense, like maybe metro city has a shop that's called "Devil May Cry" or Light Labs or Umbrella is thing,
Thorgi, when you talked about prior who love fighting games, the lore and characters, and the mechanics, but don't like going online, that's me in a nutshell. I love this channel because it explores the mythos, but online play has never been my thing. MK has retained me with their story content and it looks like SF6 will be getting me back
Couldn't they reserve only 1 spot for either a Alpha, or SF3 character... in the game that finally tells what happens after SF3...(?) This is just so weird, honestly.
My number one hope is that the single player content gets dlc. It would be so disappointing if they add a bunch of new characters that can only be used in versus mode and don't do anything in metro city.
You know they're gonna have at least 40 DLC characters down the line. I'm pretty happy with literally everything they've shown so far. Just can't wait to get my hands on it, haven't been this excited for SF since 4.
The fact SF6 has both Character Creation and a single-player story-esque mode dedicated to the CaC with World Tour Mode is enough to sell me, the ability for my CaC to learn the moves from some of my most favorite SF characters is just the cherry, whipped-cream, and hot-fudge on top of a already jam-packed delicious hype sundae.
Dude, the world tour IS the story mode. Also, if look at the fighting ground during the gameplays, the ''arcade'' option appears at the menu's far left side.
I hope that the 4 characters (Rashid, Ed, AKKI and Akuma) are just character we can unlock in the game. It's will be great for the solo player, instead of being dlc
Thinking of world tour mode, imagine there was a mission where someone has been taking on dojos and absolutely decimating the strongest fighters they had. You follow the trail and get more and more information until the trail seemingly gets cold, until he shows up at Luke’s place and it turns out it’s Batsu
I think people underestimate how much the original SF2 roster means to the development team. It goes far beyond being iconic imo, these are characters the dev team grew up with and they wanna evolve and share that love with a new generation of players. I personally dig that so I won't fault them for sticking to their SF2 roots. If they had an alpha and a SF3 rep it would lessen the sting of this roster for alot of folks (praying Alex joins the roster for he was my main in Sf3) but man just seeing the amount of content this game has is just something else, and I bet they still have some unannounced goodies to show. Definitely grinding this game when it launches.
Cause there's so much more actual game at launch compared to SFV when it came out. Though still kinda disappointed at only 18 and that most of that 18 is just a sf2 class reunion. But yeah, it's pretty weird when the bump isn't that huge but ppl are going "18?! That's AWESOME!" lol
@@Mal-go5dl Yeah, it'd be kinda weird for them not to be all things considered. Especially when this roster is in desperate need of more non sf2 faces, would be a weird look to make us cough up cash for 2 of 3 we already know are coming
While I still wish there was more Street Fighter 3 characters in the game, Street Fighter 6 is looking like it's gonna super fun. The roster looks great,, World Tour Mode looks awesome, and the stages look beautiful. I'm so getting SF6.
I agree with Thorgi about letting Street Fighter 2 go. Personally when it comes to Fighting Games and even Superheroes genres. I get bored coz I wanna see more nee stuff. Especially new nationalities and new martialnarts being repped for SF. i understand that SF needs their Zoner (usually Dhalsim) and their Grappler (usually Zangief). But aside from them two, just create new characters. Plus I kinda feel Menat could replace Dhalsim as the resident zoner and any other grappler can succeed Zangief. and yeah none of the new characters for SF6 rep a new country disappointingly.
@@gamerman3753 my unpopular opinion is I dont understamd the love for Alex. After playing him and seeing his storylines. He feel pointless relatively. But then I love Abel, hes way more fun to play, his story has (well had) more potential with Cammy, the Dolls, (later Ed and Falke) as a spare Bison body (or whatever they are for Bison). But people seem to hate Abel or at least think hes boring. Yet I find his personality endearing. Well outside of his snapping at Guile during their rival battle but tbh Alex thought Dhalsim was gonna mug him.... coz a 50 years old floating teleporting Asian Fakir is definitely the type of guy who'd mug a 6'6" 20 something year old muscular blond hair blue eyes white wrestler from new york.
@@Epic_Amir_Hamza I’m mainly just saying Alex cause he was basically the protagonist of sf3 and cause I like his gameplay and his design. I wouldn’t mind Abel coming back either.
I won't lie, I've never been big on Ken, I never found his personality particularly charming, his kit very fun, or his design very inspired. It could be due to me being in my early 20's and not being there for the 90's when Ken was peak cool but I was honestly pretty on-board for Capcom to throw him into the ringer for 6 literally just so something happened that wasn't "Ken's cocky and he loves his family". I think people gravitated so heavily towards the divorce thing because for as one-dimensional of a development in character as it is, Ken's basically always been an incredibly one-dimensional character so there wasn't even much to latch onto other than "fuck it just take his family away and now he's pissed." Still though, I think this was the best of both worlds in terms of giving Ken an edge and advancing his plot while also still retaining his honor as a character. This is the first game that made Ken compelling to me
Something the website has made more clear is that it's not just Metro City in World Tour mode, there's different locations you'll be going to (one for each master I think?)
I've talked about the Street Fighter 2 issue I have with the roster, and it seems my friends were justifying it because if they weren't base roster, they'd be DLC as Capcom won't let go of these guys. Which is fair, but I still would have liked to see more of the series represented in the base roster.
Yeah, it's the one really major issue i have with the game so far and the fact so many are trying to justify it with " of course its only natural cause IConIc" is really getting annoying as apparently one of the minority in their eyes that actually likes all of the franchise and a lot of its other characters.
As disappointing it was to see only 18 characters at launch, it does make me wonder how they’re gonna dish out dlc. Like how far away are the 4 that got cut? Will there only be 4 per season or more? Are the seasons even gonna be themed? None of the dlc characters really have anything tying them together. And does the rival mean that we’re going to have a new rival in all future SF games?
I'm with you on the single player modes. Sometimes when playing SF5 I get so frustrated when the lag kicks in and negative edge makes me do a move I didn't want to do. Then you have to deal with salty opponents who want to curse you out even if they won. Would much rather have modes where I don't have to deal with any of that and still experience new stuff.
About your FF heroes vs Mad Gear plot idea, MCPD is a location in the World Tour and potential stage, my Lucia loving self is hoping it can happen lol. Or at least use the assets in a new Final Fight, especially with those beat em up sections they seem to be putting in.
I wish they'd let sf2 go but it makes sense why they'd include all of the world warriors, they're playing it safe after the disaster of sf5 put so many people off of street fighter. Like you said with sf3 and 4
I like that you talk about the importance on single player content. I was an offline player for years but with MK11 I had so much fun with the towers that It came a point that I had almost everything unlock so I decided to try online and I'm doing pretty decent actually. So yeah the single playet stuff got me hook so much that I got to try online for the first time.
Isn’t World Tour the story mode? I assume your character meets all the characters, learns what’s going on in their lives and probably does a quest for them moving their story forward and getting their moves etc
I completely agree with there being way too many SF2 characters but the other krazy content with the single player World Tour Mode, & Extreme Mode, & the Game Center makes it worth it, I just wanna see 3rd Strike & Alpha characters ngl, & I really think you should do more vids like this!
Main Street Fighter 6 is looking more like Street Fighter online, I wonder when Street Fight 6 come out with new DLC/Story pack they will do a epic trailers showing the story concept like with GTA Online or Final Fantasy 14 or Star Trek online. Capcom releasing a story trailer for Raise of Mad Gear story DLC would be epic, then the Next DLC would be Final Fight Story Trailer
I can see where you're coming from on the whole Street fighter 2 nostalgia thing, but on the other hand I don't think it's as much them trying to play on nostalgia as it is them just trying to get all those characters out of the way. We don't want another mortal Kombat 11 Mileena situation where people are getting harassed on Twitter because someone's favorite classic character hasn't made it into the game. And having all of those characters present and accounted for means that the way for more interesting DLC has been paved. They can't fall back on releasing Street fighter 2 protagonists, at least not for long. They're going to have to do something different, something more interesting to keep people playing the game. With a good 95% of the sf2 cast covered, new characters added could be characters from the Street fighter 3 series, or alpha, or EX. Maybe even some less obvious choices like final fight characters or characters from other obscure Capcom fighters.
I think the difference this time is that Capcom has money now and can afford to scrap a project to start fresh just like squeenix had with development of FF7 Remake
Ironically, the things people are praising SF6 for are ideas Ono had that they scrapped at the beginning of SFV's development. More realistic graphics from the SFV alpha footage (now possible thanks to RE) Battle damage as seen at the end of Guile's trailer Gratuitous splatter effects Juri is literally Ono's brainchild So you owe a lot of gratitude to Ono lol
Tekken use to be the poster child for single player content. Unlockable characters, modes, cinematics. Tekken force mode. Getting a kickass beat em up withing my fighting game was dope. Hopefully t8 fixes what t7 dropped. P.S. yoooo rawhead rex reference! Love Clive Barker
IAM getting a dragon ball XenoVerse vibe here you can learn techniques from Street fighter characters in this game kind of like you could in dragon Ball xenoverse when you learn from the dragon Ball characters I hope that's what happens in Street fighter 6
I think another point in the necessity for offline content can be found in BlazBlue Cross Tag Battle, the only other fighting game that I can think of that didn't release with a proper arcade mode. Yes, you had a story mode, but the only other offline mode was CPU matches that you set yourself. Unlike with Street Fighter 5, however, BBTag never got an arcade mode later down the line, and I think that is part of the reason why it failed like it did.
Why not a Street Fighter or KOF Styled Cartoon Network Fighting Game with Anime Styled Fighting Game. Or an MvC styled Fighting Game with Nickelodeon Characters with a Comic Book Styled look.
As a person that has hardly ever played online when I was a kid (poor internet accessibility where I was at), I was always hesitant when getting fighting games because if it didn’t have any single player offerings, then it was disheartening. Even now, I don’t like playing online because I too am HORRIBLE at fighting games. Now I feel so much better being excited for SF6. In addition, I think the single player is WHY we have all of the World Warriors back. Because you are learning all of their moves throughout the story mode, you know people would ask, “Why aren’t they in the game as a full character?” And to that I have to say, yeah. That would make sense. That being said, I would have easily have wanted some replacements. Take out E. Honda and Dhalsim and put in Yun or Alex or Rashid. Have a variety of different Street Fighters that you could learn from in, that way SF6 would be a celebration of all of the previous games (and a good way to advertise any SF collections to see where they came from).
I also thought of the World Warriors being in for being masters in the World Tour,but the additional inclusion of Cammy and Deejay makes me think its really just Capcom being afraid because a game failed 26 years ago
maybe im just old, but i didnt think of mortal kombat and tekken when i saw those options. I saw the balls and the electrical poles and the bulls, and it reminded me of Death Match mode in World Heroes (Snk game) and the create character was a Rival Schools thing. And considering how the devs have declared their love for snk games and rival, im glad to see they are taking all those things they loved as kids growing in fighting games and adding it to this game.
I think a big issue for a lot of people going online is that fighting games are one of the most difficult types of games to get good at. Not only are fighting games hard to get good at, but losing just hits harder than in other games and the way to get good is to lose a lot. Other popular multi-player games like FPS games and DotA style games have team coop mechanics which let the player split the brunt of the loss, blame others (even if dishonestly), and sometimes get carried. Not only that, but most of these games also have participation rewards where win or lose, you'll unlock or progress toward unlocking rewards over time which can and will keep a lot of people playing even if you're losing a lot and eventually those players will improve and keep playing anyway. In a lot of fighting games, especially Capcom games, not only does this largely not exist, but you flat out get punished for losing via downranking which provides an incentive to ragequit or just ultimately avoid online altogether. Fact is, I know a lot of people maintain an old school mentality where they believe getting better slowly over time is reward enough, but fighting games have a much smaller rate of online participation than most games and that's on top of having a much smaller player-base than other genres.
Game looks good so far. In case there is fight money, I hope that harvesting it will not be so limited (it is absurd to get a little FM in survival 1 time per character in each course).
Doesn't anyone know what the name for the SFIII.3 Alex/Ken theme remix in the Background. I just checked and discovered it is both the Original and Arranged version.
What an *incredible* time to be a fighting game fan. Holy crap, 2023, wtf? With SF6 and Tekken 8... What kind of a year is this going to be? And how did I end up in the best timeline?
You know It's kind of sad that the only returning characters in the base roster (minus Ryu, Luke and Ken) are characters from the more successful Street Fighter games with no one from 3 and 5.
That's just unavoidable with any game that has an in-depth character creation system. Did you see the shit people have created in stuff like Dark Souls 3? Nightmarish.
I'm really looking forward to this actually I'm probably not going to pick it up because of how cheap I am but I might be very more tempted if I see the option of you can just walk to Wright talent agency / law office hire Athena as your lawyer and then walk over to light robotics and have Roll to you I'm sorry but we're not honoring that return policy and you literally set up a battle between Athena and Roll!
The thing I was most disappointed about (although the things announced were AMAZING ngl) was that although the roster was leaked with 22 characters, they will only use 18 at launch. However, the entire game as a whole makes me not care as much because of how AWESOME it looks!!!
Well that is the EXACT problem with leaks as they set unrealistic expectations. Capcom never offically confirmed 22 characters at launch. We just assumed it, because it got leaked.
Personally, I’m hoping Metro City isn’t the only map in the mode. Even if they’re scaled down, I’d like to see an Indian map where you can visit Dhalsim’s village, visit Blanka in Brazil or Sagat in Thailand - rather than just have them had moved to somewhere in Metro City 👀
Just make it 25 characters; Same number as Street Fighter 4 at launch. Also have to stop the Street Fighter 2 class reunions and poorly timed DLC practices.
I agree with a good chunk of your thoughts regarding the game, but I am gonna have to disagree on the SF2 opinion. What I want to know is how come you have a problem with this roster retaining so many fighters from old games yet Guilty Gear (9/15 at launch + 2 added later), Tekken (5/20 + 8 addedlater) and, from the first two games alone, Mortal Kombat (14/24 + 1 added later) get a pass? Regarding MK, I honestly believe Mileena was never intended to be in the game but the pressure caved in so they decided to add her. I just you underestimate the value of nostalgia. Also having some safe options is not that bad
Maybe it is just because I didn't like how safe the roster of KOF XV was, but I agree with Thorgi on this one. I know it all comes down to personal preferences, but Street Fighter has had several sequels which have introduced characters that are far more compelling than Honda, Blanka, and Dhalsim. Nevertheless, 18 characters is still a good number, especially considering how amazing the game looks. Kudos to Capcom for learning from their mistakes and providing us with this game.
Totally agree about the roster comments… while I get you want some nostalgia comments I would have wished some of the Alpha, IV and V characters would get some love too. But I am sure we will have a few seasons of DLC lol
I agree to an extent. I feel like some characters grew to encompass certain playstyles and power fantasies so well that it makes total sense to bring them back whenever possible. Dhalsim's fireball game and stretchy limbs are something unique to him and makes him stand out both visually and mechanically, same for Blanka with his ball, electricity and normals that sell how playing a lightning beast man would be like. Ryu is the base of the game and characters like Chun-Li, Ken, Guile and now Luke represent variations of that base. However my favor stops at Zangief and Honda. I always felt like Honda's headbutt and single case use of slaps made him overlap too much with Blanka and his ball move, and as i said Blanka to me has a more unique style and fantasy to him. Unless they get really creative with Zangief he'll just be yet another case of the basic grappler package. Even in his own series there's been characters that encompass the same basic idea of what he does but in a distinctive way that goes beyond what's seen in SF2 instead of parallel to it.
I am expecting for rival school and slam masters easter eggs, reference and cameos on World Tour. There is already final fight reference, easter eggs and cameos
I don't know if it's been mentioned by anyone else, but i think part of the reason single-player content is so important these days is because playing online is now a twofold cost on consoles, cuz you have to be able to afford internet alongside ps plus and xbox gold. Singleplayer content is the stuff that allows people who may not be able to afford those kinds of monthly payments to still have a reason to play the game
That, and I'm a shmoe who enjoys having someone in the same room as me.
I know I’m in the minority, but my favorite genre is fighting games yet I absolutely hate playing against other people. I guess for me, the fun has always been learning combos and seeing arcade endings / story mode. I would rather thrash the CPU with fancy combos and have fun that way. I’m way more hyped for SF6 now because of the addition of all the NRS style single player stuff.
The single player content could be "online" meaning to gain the in-game currency, you need to be online.
@@jinkazama7587 thankfully, this isn’t true
I’m really Glad Ken isn’t going through a “divorce,” arc but instead a bad ass arc with him trying to clear his name after being framed. You really don’t wanna a fun character like Ken to go through a depressing Mid life crisis. But damn Ken’s intro in the trailer went hard🔥
""Framed""" you KNOW he pulled a giant NFT scam on Wallstreet
Here’s my question. Was it Mad Gear doing the framing? Or was it that well dressed gentleman JP?
A mid life crisis could be an interesting story depending on how its written. Could add a layer of depth to the character
@@Mr.2Dirty Let me answer a question with a question...why not both?
@@Mr.2Dirty Prediction: Mad Gear did it FOR well dressed gentleman JP.
Having 18 characters this time is forgivable here especially when the other content more than makes up for it.
- Open World Story Mode
- Customizable Avatars with their own custom movesets.
- Fully Playable Retro Arcade Games (MegaMan The Power Battle's in the line-up to my surprise! :D)
- A Mode with Hazards and Gimmicks Turned On
- Actual Minigames (The vehicle destruction one is always funny, ngl.)
- And even with the SF2 nostalgia, 7 of the base roster characters are new faces. Meaning that the roster is more balanced with more newcomers without distancing too far from series faces.
All in all, good job making up for the smaller number here. You guys DEFINITELY put much more effort into this game.
It isn't even a smaller roster. SFV had 16 characters at launch and IV had 17.
As if 18 is a knock against it? Lol.
The foundation for this game is *incredibly* strong. The roster is going to be absolutely massive by the time anyone even thinks of considering Street Fighter 7.
And why would you? You can keep adding more content, more modes, more create a character items, more main character costumes, improving graphics like SFV did over time.
This game has potential to last until like 2030. 18 characters at launch is just perfect considering what potential we have here.
I’m really only upset that 2 of the DLC characters are SFV characters.
Has there been any announcement that directly states that the custom characters have "custom" movesets? I generally feel that the custom characters will just inherit the entire movesets from their current master. I honestly would love customizable movesets, but I imagine that would be a nightmare to balance for online play.
@@Sophiret The solution is you kinda just don't. Don't let custom characters in most matches.
I don't think Dee Jay is THAT weird a pick per se. He IS an upbeat musician (heh), and his career in music coincides well with the big city setting and the urban hiphop themes they got going on this time around. He's quite the suitable choice for this entry, and being one of my favorite characters, I'm glad to see him back! Now I'm just curious to see how they update his moves
By that logic, maybe we'll get Elena later?
Iirc in the Sf2 movie he ran a record shop
@@YourDadsOnlyFan hopefully, she's thick af
Would love if they had more SF3 characters. That seems like a no brainer. Wouldn't have minded Sakura and a couple of Alpha, Final Fight and/or Rival School characters
It would be cool if Sakura had a friendly rivalry with Sean, mirroring the one with Ken and Ryu.
I would have loved sf3 characters but it seems like they're playing it real safe with their roster choice. average people don't want Necro or Remy, they want to create a character and do blanka moves
DLC bait
Sakura is definitely in the game .
The custom characters during on eof the fights does her version of tatsumaki and1 of her other moves. And I'm guessing every move you can get as custom is from a playable character
@@zltpsm. I see no evidence of such.
As an addition to Torgi talking about single player content, for capcom to maybe span their audience wider then hear me out...
In Street Fighter 6 they mention how your custom character can grow by strengthening your bonds with the world warriors who are the one's who teach you your special moves, the draw of a lot of street fighter characters and any fighting game character in general is their background and personalities. it can also be for their moveset's, but there's a lot of story to these characters that can get people hooked on them. if we want more small details in Street Fighter then what we need is...
A Dating sim Mechanic when you interact with the world warriors as your custom character.
No I'm not kidding, Rival Schools already had this in mind with Nekketsu Seisyun Nikki school sim mode. also a good way to segway more Rival Schools characters hopefully as DLC because everyone loved Akira Kazama. Also, all the characters have grown older? great, give me older and graduated Batsu or Kyosuke, Capcom. they have to look dope.
Plus, if we really want to expand on the personalities of some of our favourite world warriors, be that getting to know their favorite foods, their culture, them recalling past events, personal ideologies that reflect on their own fighting style. just something to really good with a hint of sweetness that is the juice that jumps off the meat that could be what Street Fighter 6's content ends up being!
Maybe I'm being too hopeful, street fighter hasn't really always had the best writing or naritive, looking at past examples-
but Capcom has been changing too, so maybe that can change... just maybe...
Right now the character on the roster who is looking like my pick for my female CaC's go-to mentor is Cammy.
18 characters made from scratch (Luke aside, though he was made for SF6 first then reused for SFV) isn’t a bad base roster at all. It’s just that the leaks colored a lot of our expectations, which Max mentioned in his video was the problem. Also, I’m liking Lily’s redesign compared to the one that leaked.
As for World Tour, I might have to use pad for it given that we have full camera controls with the right stick. And regarding Story Mode, it’s being combined with Arcade Mode.
Having 18 characters this time is forgivable here especially when the other content more than makes up for it.
- Open World Story Mode
- Customizable Avatars with their own custom movesets.
- Fully Playable Retro Arcade Games (MegaMan The Power Battle's in the line-up to my surprise! :D)
- A Mode with Hazards and Gimmicks Turned On
- Actual Minigames (The vehicle destruction one is always funny, ngl.)
- And even with the SF2 nostalgia, 7 of the base roster characters are new faces. Meaning that the roster is more balanced with more newcomers without distancing too far from series faces.
All in all, good job making up for the smaller number here. You guys DEFINITELY put much more effort into this game.
Bro, with everything that’s been revealed, Capcom has been _snappin_ with SF6
Street Fighter 6 is MASSIVE, the starting roster couldn't be particular big, but the game is so big even with the limitations of the base roster that you already have a full game without counting the roster.
I mean, I believe this game could only include the World Warriors and it could already be perfectly a $40 game, and that is lowballing the value.
Though, I wonder if choosing the World Warriors to be part of the base roster wasn't just nostalgia, but in order to set up the archetype of moves that you can learn in the story mode, after all the playable characters in World Warriors gave you different tastes of character archtype.
I'm fine with the roster, but it's actually so funny to me that the only non-SF2 legacy character in the game is Juri. No SF3 either in a game that's past it in the timeline. That being said, I'm really excited for SF6!
I feel like its finally gonna be the best SF game since Alpha 3...
Its really fitting that Capcom kept piggybacking the characters ages, making prequel after prequel to 3rd Strike, and finally decided to move its story forward now that the children who played SF in the 90s aré all around 30 (some few pushing 40), so now we can say our beloved fighters grew up along with us...
You know sitting on it, I think a big difference between the release of V and VI kind of comes down to how Capcom handled buffering the delay. Street Fighter V was rushed out the door both to meet Capcom's fiscal deadline but to also move onto the next game for their CPT season. Rather than similarly rushing VI out the door, Capcom this time sat back and made an extra "emergency" season of DLC for Street Fighter V to compensate for the delay.
People sometimes forget, but Season 4 was actually planned to be the final season of DLC for V.
There is quite a bit of misinformation regarding development for sf6 in this video
What you are mentioning as scrapped years of development that is what's true for sf5 not 6
Sf5 was intended to be a hyper realistic sf game kinda like tekken (u can even find a dev screenshot of that version if u look for it ),
That was scrapped from the years of development for sf5 and they had to rush shit up to get something on stage
You can search for an article by eventhubs about what Matsumoto said in an interview about sf6 development which stated that it started from 2018 and that he wrote a 92 page proposal about battlehub and world tour and fighting ground
Which basically almost none of that has changed from beginning till the end
There is also an another article i think either about Matsumoto or nakayama saying that this has been the most joyful development process that have ever been through
So what you said about developing entirely 3 different game modes essentially in just 3 years or so doesn't make any sense and its virtually impossible
I had a feeling that the team was trying to mold Metro City into SNK South Town. Garou had all these neat locations that all took place in different areas around town, including Marco's forest which was on the outskirts. CAPCOM even revealed that Honda was opening a chanko-style restaurant in Metro City, so I think this theory holds weight (pun intended). Only challenge to that may be Blanka's stage, so I'm still waiting for more details
To be fair they're both based on Miami
Metro City is the actual location of the Capcom game Final Fight.
Great vid Thorgi SF6 is really shaping up to be a masterpiece. Please do a SF6 DLC wishlist and in the near future please to do a Marvel vs DC build the roster
My DLC wishlist that I want in SF6 is poison in her pirate outfit Ruby heart from RWBY as a guest character Evil ryu Abigail and ibuki
I agree. I think the roster is kind of bland. I love the whole cast design, everyone looks great. But some of the choices just speaks safe. Having the original 8, which is nice to see on paper, I could’ve done without. The same number of new characters, are the same of the originals lol. I think Capcom should have started with more new characters,and characters we have not see in a while make a comeback. They PSTD about what happened in SF3, that their going with what works. There returning characters are fan favorites like Juri and Rashid. Their playing it safe like I said, and it’s shame. Because there’s making some really interesting and inventive ways of making this a unique fighting. I wish the aspect of thinking would have reflective the rooster. It’s the worst roster ever, but I believe they could have done a better job.
Street Fighter 5 was made in a shoe string budget. Capcom had almost no money and had to basically finance it through Sony. Capcom is now in a way better place financially. So they’re able to put more money into the production of SF6. Also the new dev team has a much better vision for the game in general. Last few seasons of SFV has been pretty good with them in charge
Still not a fan of how sf2 heavy base roster is. But can't do anything about that. Otherwise, loving what I'm seeing
18 characters is, if my research is correct, the second largest launch roster in the history of the Franchise, if you treat rereleases as updates
As for the World Warrior Cast, I think E. Honda is the only one that relies on Nostalgia. Dhalsim and Blanka are both so unique that them coming back is entirely justified
I'm a fan of amalgamating universes, where things from other franchise show in in other franchise worlds in a way that make sense, like maybe metro city has a shop that's called "Devil May Cry" or Light Labs or Umbrella is thing,
Thorgi, when you talked about prior who love fighting games, the lore and characters, and the mechanics, but don't like going online, that's me in a nutshell. I love this channel because it explores the mythos, but online play has never been my thing. MK has retained me with their story content and it looks like SF6 will be getting me back
Even the top esports players talk about how important single player content is. Sometimes you want to unwind with the game between matches.
Couldn't they reserve only 1 spot for either a Alpha, or SF3 character... in the game that finally tells what happens after SF3...(?)
This is just so weird, honestly.
My number one hope is that the single player content gets dlc. It would be so disappointing if they add a bunch of new characters that can only be used in versus mode and don't do anything in metro city.
You know they're gonna have at least 40 DLC characters down the line. I'm pretty happy with literally everything they've shown so far. Just can't wait to get my hands on it, haven't been this excited for SF since 4.
The fact SF6 has both Character Creation and a single-player story-esque mode dedicated to the CaC with World Tour Mode is enough to sell me, the ability for my CaC to learn the moves from some of my most favorite SF characters is just the cherry, whipped-cream, and hot-fudge on top of a already jam-packed delicious hype sundae.
Dude, the world tour IS the story mode.
Also, if look at the fighting ground during the gameplays, the ''arcade'' option appears at the menu's far left side.
42:20 I know this is somewhat of a nitpicking, but Ryu and Ken are definitely from SF1. 😀
I hope that the 4 characters (Rashid, Ed, AKKI and Akuma) are just character we can unlock in the game. It's will be great for the solo player, instead of being dlc
It makes all the sense in the world for Akuma to be a hidden/unlockable fighter.
Thinking of world tour mode, imagine there was a mission where someone has been taking on dojos and absolutely decimating the strongest fighters they had. You follow the trail and get more and more information until the trail seemingly gets cold, until he shows up at Luke’s place and it turns out it’s Batsu
I think people underestimate how much the original SF2 roster means to the development team. It goes far beyond being iconic imo, these are characters the dev team grew up with and they wanna evolve and share that love with a new generation of players. I personally dig that so I won't fault them for sticking to their SF2 roots. If they had an alpha and a SF3 rep it would lessen the sting of this roster for alot of folks (praying Alex joins the roster for he was my main in Sf3) but man just seeing the amount of content this game has is just something else, and I bet they still have some unannounced goodies to show. Definitely grinding this game when it launches.
Still don't understand how people are happy about 18 characters when they were bitxhing when it was 16 in street fighter 5.
Cause there's so much more actual game at launch compared to SFV when it came out. Though still kinda disappointed at only 18 and that most of that 18 is just a sf2 class reunion. But yeah, it's pretty weird when the bump isn't that huge but ppl are going "18?! That's AWESOME!" lol
Because there’s a ton of content and the game just looks better
Sure there are only 18 characters but they all look dope as shit
I just hope the other 4 expected characters are free dlc at least
@@Mal-go5dl Yeah, it'd be kinda weird for them not to be all things considered. Especially when this roster is in desperate need of more non sf2 faces, would be a weird look to make us cough up cash for 2 of 3 we already know are coming
16 boring characters.
While I still wish there was more Street Fighter 3 characters in the game, Street Fighter 6 is looking like it's gonna super fun. The roster looks great,, World Tour Mode looks awesome, and the stages look beautiful. I'm so getting SF6.
I agree with Thorgi about letting Street Fighter 2 go.
Personally when it comes to Fighting Games and even Superheroes genres. I get bored coz I wanna see more nee stuff. Especially new nationalities and new martialnarts being repped for SF.
i understand that SF needs their Zoner (usually Dhalsim) and their Grappler (usually Zangief). But aside from them two, just create new characters. Plus I kinda feel Menat could replace Dhalsim as the resident zoner and any other grappler can succeed Zangief.
and yeah none of the new characters for SF6 rep a new country disappointingly.
They could’ve replace Zangief with Alex at least for some sf3 representation
@@gamerman3753 my unpopular opinion is I dont understamd the love for Alex. After playing him and seeing his storylines. He feel pointless relatively. But then I love Abel, hes way more fun to play, his story has (well had) more potential with Cammy, the Dolls, (later Ed and Falke) as a spare Bison body (or whatever they are for Bison). But people seem to hate Abel or at least think hes boring. Yet I find his personality endearing.
Well outside of his snapping at Guile during their rival battle but tbh Alex thought Dhalsim was gonna mug him.... coz a 50 years old floating teleporting Asian Fakir is definitely the type of guy who'd mug a 6'6" 20 something year old muscular blond hair blue eyes white wrestler from new york.
@@Epic_Amir_Hamza I’m mainly just saying Alex cause he was basically the protagonist of sf3 and cause I like his gameplay and his design. I wouldn’t mind Abel coming back either.
@@gamerman3753 i get your point there. Some of the newer characters should be highlighted as main stays now.
I won't lie, I've never been big on Ken, I never found his personality particularly charming, his kit very fun, or his design very inspired. It could be due to me being in my early 20's and not being there for the 90's when Ken was peak cool but I was honestly pretty on-board for Capcom to throw him into the ringer for 6 literally just so something happened that wasn't "Ken's cocky and he loves his family". I think people gravitated so heavily towards the divorce thing because for as one-dimensional of a development in character as it is, Ken's basically always been an incredibly one-dimensional character so there wasn't even much to latch onto other than "fuck it just take his family away and now he's pissed." Still though, I think this was the best of both worlds in terms of giving Ken an edge and advancing his plot while also still retaining his honor as a character. This is the first game that made Ken compelling to me
Something the website has made more clear is that it's not just Metro City in World Tour mode, there's different locations you'll be going to (one for each master I think?)
I've talked about the Street Fighter 2 issue I have with the roster, and it seems my friends were justifying it because if they weren't base roster, they'd be DLC as Capcom won't let go of these guys. Which is fair, but I still would have liked to see more of the series represented in the base roster.
I think it's an overreaction to their absence in base SFV, since that was the end (hopefully) of Bison.
Yeah, it's the one really major issue i have with the game so far and the fact so many are trying to justify it with " of course its only natural cause IConIc" is really getting annoying as apparently one of the minority in their eyes that actually likes all of the franchise and a lot of its other characters.
What’s going on how is capcom popping off all of a sudden? How did that’s happened?
It seems like they took the Konami comparisons personally and want an apology.
The success of Monster Hunter and Resident Evil recent games happenned.
As disappointing it was to see only 18 characters at launch, it does make me wonder how they’re gonna dish out dlc. Like how far away are the 4 that got cut? Will there only be 4 per season or more? Are the seasons even gonna be themed? None of the dlc characters really have anything tying them together. And does the rival mean that we’re going to have a new rival in all future SF games?
I'm with you on the single player modes. Sometimes when playing SF5 I get so frustrated when the lag kicks in and negative edge makes me do a move I didn't want to do. Then you have to deal with salty opponents who want to curse you out even if they won. Would much rather have modes where I don't have to deal with any of that and still experience new stuff.
About your FF heroes vs Mad Gear plot idea, MCPD is a location in the World Tour and potential stage, my Lucia loving self is hoping it can happen lol. Or at least use the assets in a new Final Fight, especially with those beat em up sections they seem to be putting in.
Street Fighter 6's presentation feels like a giant apology from Capcom for Street Fighter V's launch.
I wish they'd let sf2 go but it makes sense why they'd include all of the world warriors, they're playing it safe after the disaster of sf5 put so many people off of street fighter. Like you said with sf3 and 4
I like that you talk about the importance on single player content. I was an offline player for years but with MK11 I had so much fun with the towers that It came a point that I had almost everything unlock so I decided to try online and I'm doing pretty decent actually. So yeah the single playet stuff got me hook so much that I got to try online for the first time.
Isn’t World Tour the story mode? I assume your character meets all the characters, learns what’s going on in their lives and probably does a quest for them moving their story forward and getting their moves etc
Honestly my biggest complaint about this game is that there aren't any sf3 characters.
I remember there being a ton of complaints that Blanka, Guile, and Honda weren’t in the base roster of SFV
I know I was complaining
I completely agree with there being way too many SF2 characters but the other krazy content with the single player World Tour Mode, & Extreme Mode, & the Game Center makes it worth it, I just wanna see 3rd Strike & Alpha characters ngl, & I really think you should do more vids like this!
I hate it if we cant mix and match all the special of the different characters. i just want big grappler specials with shoto normals
Crazy we're getting SF and Tekken around the same time and I'm hyped for both. They both look so great!
Main Street Fighter 6 is looking more like Street Fighter online, I wonder when Street Fight 6 come out with new DLC/Story pack they will do a epic trailers showing the story concept like with GTA Online or Final Fantasy 14 or Star Trek online. Capcom releasing a story trailer for Raise of Mad Gear story DLC would be epic, then the Next DLC would be Final Fight Story Trailer
I can see where you're coming from on the whole Street fighter 2 nostalgia thing, but on the other hand I don't think it's as much them trying to play on nostalgia as it is them just trying to get all those characters out of the way. We don't want another mortal Kombat 11 Mileena situation where people are getting harassed on Twitter because someone's favorite classic character hasn't made it into the game. And having all of those characters present and accounted for means that the way for more interesting DLC has been paved. They can't fall back on releasing Street fighter 2 protagonists, at least not for long. They're going to have to do something different, something more interesting to keep people playing the game. With a good 95% of the sf2 cast covered, new characters added could be characters from the Street fighter 3 series, or alpha, or EX. Maybe even some less obvious choices like final fight characters or characters from other obscure Capcom fighters.
EX isn't likely to happen as Capcom doesn't actually own the EX original characters; That would be Arika.
The Devs been playing some NBA 2K!
I hope Capcom subverts our expectations and makes those 4 characters unlockable by playing story mode or something
I think the difference this time is that Capcom has money now and can afford to scrap a project to start fresh just like squeenix had with development of FF7 Remake
METRO city-vania
I'm so glad they took their time with this. It's so good looking. Ono leaving was the best thing for Street Fighter. CapGod is back!!!
Seriously. The greatest day was when Ono left and it finally opened the door for having SF be a real game again.
Ironically, the things people are praising SF6 for are ideas Ono had that they scrapped at the beginning of SFV's development.
More realistic graphics from the SFV alpha footage (now possible thanks to RE)
Battle damage as seen at the end of Guile's trailer
Gratuitous splatter effects
Juri is literally Ono's brainchild
So you owe a lot of gratitude to Ono lol
Tekken use to be the poster child for single player content. Unlockable characters, modes, cinematics. Tekken force mode. Getting a kickass beat em up withing my fighting game was dope. Hopefully t8 fixes what t7 dropped.
P.S. yoooo rawhead rex reference! Love Clive Barker
IAM getting a dragon ball XenoVerse vibe here you can learn techniques from Street fighter characters in this game kind of like you could in dragon Ball xenoverse when you learn from the dragon Ball characters I hope that's what happens in Street fighter 6
I think another point in the necessity for offline content can be found in BlazBlue Cross Tag Battle, the only other fighting game that I can think of that didn't release with a proper arcade mode. Yes, you had a story mode, but the only other offline mode was CPU matches that you set yourself. Unlike with Street Fighter 5, however, BBTag never got an arcade mode later down the line, and I think that is part of the reason why it failed like it did.
Can you do build the roster of disney and pixar characters
I don't mean to burst your bubble, but that's one roster he's said on stream he won't be doing.
Disney and Pixar smash bros
Eww. No. Do it yourself.
Why not a Street Fighter or KOF Styled Cartoon Network Fighting Game with Anime Styled Fighting Game.
Or an MvC styled Fighting Game with Nickelodeon Characters with a Comic Book Styled look.
Where'd this question even come from
SF6 needs some SF3 reps. In particular I want to see Necro who hasn't been playable in 20+ years.
This is great! We get 18 chacters and tons of content! They learned from the mistakes they made in Street Fighter 5.
I’m just happy with the base roster I can’t wait for the dlc to add even more characters.
Mortal Kombat 11 needs an online connection to get the full experience for its single-player modes 😂
2:30 it's basically mK Konquest mode from the 3d era
As a person that has hardly ever played online when I was a kid (poor internet accessibility where I was at), I was always hesitant when getting fighting games because if it didn’t have any single player offerings, then it was disheartening. Even now, I don’t like playing online because I too am HORRIBLE at fighting games. Now I feel so much better being excited for SF6.
In addition, I think the single player is WHY we have all of the World Warriors back. Because you are learning all of their moves throughout the story mode, you know people would ask, “Why aren’t they in the game as a full character?” And to that I have to say, yeah. That would make sense. That being said, I would have easily have wanted some replacements. Take out E. Honda and Dhalsim and put in Yun or Alex or Rashid. Have a variety of different Street Fighters that you could learn from in, that way SF6 would be a celebration of all of the previous games (and a good way to advertise any SF collections to see where they came from).
I also thought of the World Warriors being in for being masters in the World Tour,but the additional inclusion of Cammy and Deejay makes me think its really just Capcom being afraid because a game failed 26 years ago
maybe im just old, but i didnt think of mortal kombat and tekken when i saw those options. I saw the balls and the electrical poles and the bulls, and it reminded me of Death Match mode in World Heroes (Snk game) and the create character was a Rival Schools thing. And considering how the devs have declared their love for snk games and rival, im glad to see they are taking all those things they loved as kids growing in fighting games and adding it to this game.
I think a big issue for a lot of people going online is that fighting games are one of the most difficult types of games to get good at. Not only are fighting games hard to get good at, but losing just hits harder than in other games and the way to get good is to lose a lot.
Other popular multi-player games like FPS games and DotA style games have team coop mechanics which let the player split the brunt of the loss, blame others (even if dishonestly), and sometimes get carried. Not only that, but most of these games also have participation rewards where win or lose, you'll unlock or progress toward unlocking rewards over time which can and will keep a lot of people playing even if you're losing a lot and eventually those players will improve and keep playing anyway. In a lot of fighting games, especially Capcom games, not only does this largely not exist, but you flat out get punished for losing via downranking which provides an incentive to ragequit or just ultimately avoid online altogether.
Fact is, I know a lot of people maintain an old school mentality where they believe getting better slowly over time is reward enough, but fighting games have a much smaller rate of online participation than most games and that's on top of having a much smaller player-base than other genres.

Game looks good so far.
In case there is fight money, I hope that harvesting it will not be so limited (it is absurd to get a little FM in survival 1 time per character in each course).
Looking at Ken, I'm glad they didn't go that divorce route, that would feel like a Sindel retcon again.
If the single player world proves to be as immersive as it looks, i hope they take it and do a spin off as an mmo or gta like game.
Doesn't anyone know what the name for the SFIII.3 Alex/Ken theme remix in the Background.

35:51 lol, pretend. Why bother?
The thing I was most disappointed about (although the things announced were AMAZING ngl) was that although the roster was leaked with 22 characters, they will only use 18 at launch. However, the entire game as a whole makes me not care as much because of how AWESOME it looks!!!
Well that is the EXACT problem with leaks as they set unrealistic expectations. Capcom never offically confirmed 22 characters at launch. We just assumed it, because it got leaked.
I remember hearing they were hoping to add more characters, so unless that's just DLC...
@Kiko Smore. Then Street Fighter 4 wouldn't have been so popular despite it's launch roster of 25 characters.
Personally, I’m hoping Metro City isn’t the only map in the mode. Even if they’re scaled down, I’d like to see an Indian map where you can visit Dhalsim’s village, visit Blanka in Brazil or Sagat in Thailand - rather than just have them had moved to somewhere in Metro City 👀
Hey thorgi when are you going to talk about Tekken 8 ?
18 is too limited. 24 should be the minimum.
Just make it 25 characters; Same number as Street Fighter 4 at launch. Also have to stop the Street Fighter 2 class reunions and poorly timed DLC practices.
@@dragonbornexpress5650 wholeheartedly agree.
Wow never thought I'd get a rawhead rex reference in a SF video. Usually I mention that movie first
I agree with a good chunk of your thoughts regarding the game, but I am gonna have to disagree on the SF2 opinion. What I want to know is how come you have a problem with this roster retaining so many fighters from old games yet Guilty Gear (9/15 at launch + 2 added later), Tekken (5/20 + 8 addedlater) and, from the first two games alone, Mortal Kombat (14/24 + 1 added later) get a pass? Regarding MK, I honestly believe Mileena was never intended to be in the game but the pressure caved in so they decided to add her. I just you underestimate the value of nostalgia. Also having some safe options is not that bad
Maybe it is just because I didn't like how safe the roster of KOF XV was, but I agree with Thorgi on this one. I know it all comes down to personal preferences, but Street Fighter has had several sequels which have introduced characters that are far more compelling than Honda, Blanka, and Dhalsim. Nevertheless, 18 characters is still a good number, especially considering how amazing the game looks. Kudos to Capcom for learning from their mistakes and providing us with this game.
Also, did you notice how the World Tour character for the presentation looks a bit like Sean?
Sort of wish we got more sf3 characters personally, the only sf2 character I want is Vega
I'm going to guess you probably already know about the new Tekken 8 trailer.
Totally agree about the roster comments… while I get you want some nostalgia comments I would have wished some of the Alpha, IV and V characters would get some love too. But I am sure we will have a few seasons of DLC lol
Third strike characters are CRUELLY lackinh
I agree to an extent. I feel like some characters grew to encompass certain playstyles and power fantasies so well that it makes total sense to bring them back whenever possible. Dhalsim's fireball game and stretchy limbs are something unique to him and makes him stand out both visually and mechanically, same for Blanka with his ball, electricity and normals that sell how playing a lightning beast man would be like. Ryu is the base of the game and characters like Chun-Li, Ken, Guile and now Luke represent variations of that base.
However my favor stops at Zangief and Honda. I always felt like Honda's headbutt and single case use of slaps made him overlap too much with Blanka and his ball move, and as i said Blanka to me has a more unique style and fantasy to him. Unless they get really creative with Zangief he'll just be yet another case of the basic grappler package. Even in his own series there's been characters that encompass the same basic idea of what he does but in a distinctive way that goes beyond what's seen in SF2 instead of parallel to it.
I am expecting for rival school and slam masters easter eggs, reference and cameos on World Tour.
There is already final fight reference, easter eggs and cameos
Not gonna lie tho. Much more excited for tekken. But I'll def be buying sf6
I think the moves will be useed as less of a metroidvania and more a way to get some extra goodies and collectibles
I Rather devs invest more resources in single player content than trying to dumb down their game for redditors.
Maybe it's just me, but it seems to me that showing two characters from russia (Zangief and JP) is strange and it didn't age well
@Kiko Smore yeah
Thank god I am one of those people that my friends don’t play fighting games
Please what is the name of the song at the beginning? Im searching it forever.
SF 6 hub reminds me of PlayStation Home
