remy from streets
Corrections:
-bikei doesn't actually completely mean twink. it's more that twink is a subset of bikei. this is wholly my fault, and not the fault of the source i listed, since i had more confidence in my idea of the meaning of both bikei and twink than i reasonably should have. it's more accurate to say twink is a subset of bikei.
-the backstory of K' wasn't ripped off from cool, but rather from haiji. i don't know how this one happened. there goes an entire minute of rambling about absolutely nothing.
-ed is not a twink. i remembered him being more of a twink than he was. and i didn't bother to change it for some reason?
-remy was in one other udon cover which is EVEN MORE INSULTING
Did you know? His favorite things are:
- jumping into chun li sa1
- stale bread
- hydrogen without any oxygen
- the newest season of American Dad
- aaand ice
Remy is that guy.. Always has been..
remy is a combo of guile/nash sagat and adon
guile/nash flash kick and archetype
sagat's high low projectile
adon's divekick
Handsomeman it means.
What word would you use to describe Ed in that case? I'd say he's twink-ish, but I have the sneaking suspicion that your twink expertise far outclasses my own.
He is a confused SNK character who accidentally came on street fighter. Probably brother of Kula Diamond.
Cousin of Ash Crimson perhaps?
Lol love that 👏🏾 😂
@therealgmhere5988that's also a good one 👏🏾 😂
I want this to be true
what? bro what are you waffling about?? he's just a french dude with self esteem issues
I always felt like he was actually a King of Fighters character that took a wrong turn, and found himself in the wrong game, so they were like "uhh sod it, guile charge moves"
sometime after capcom vs snk he got on the wrong plane home alone style
@@novameowww I found a video (Street Fighter 3rd Strike Online Edition - Makoto Vs. Remy) by SecretCraz where Remy was able to beat Makoto in a match.
Makes sense why he's not in another game: He hates fighting.
XD
Because his story is sad man, his sister died in ending and he's go away for that bullshit
A well-known fact (factoid?) is that Guile was supposed to be in SF3 but, due to lack of time, CAPCOM rush added Remy by repurposing stuff for Guile. They chose a "bikei" character because a slim-figured character was missing from the roster.
By the way, 美形/Bikei doesn't mean twink. It just means good-looking for all genders. It does tend to be used for slim, asexual-looking males but has nothing to do with being gay or not.
Remy is most likely "inspired" by the visual band boom in Japan, kinda edgy and asexual visuals, like so many other characters that can be categorized as "bikei". Iori is a great example as his looks are almost a straight copy of such bands during the time the game was released. Even his hobby is doing music/band. ED's design follows a bikei type boys bands/groups visuals that were popular in Japan a few years back, probably when his concept art was designed.
So it kinda follows the chart you made but it's more of a reflection of the trend of a stereotypical bikei as a whole in Japan at that time.
iori continues to be a mid-90's japan microcosm huh
Awesome, how did you find this information?
@@goob8945 For the story about Remy, Capcom used to publish booklets published for games with behind the seen stories, concept art, manga and whatnot called "Secret Files". I wasn't sure my memory was accurate so I googled Japanese sites just in case and they had that source as well so pretty sure that Remy was a rushed character was in there. Not sure of Guile stuff but I think that was in it as well or from some interview(s) with Japanese game magazine.
For the design inspirations, I don't think it was spelled out anywhere but living in Japan and being in the pop culture trend makes it pretty obvious where they are coming from.
@@marshiallaw Upvote for doing the research!
@@marshiallaw ah fascinating... thanks !!
"capcom intentionally designs the twinkiest of twinks" was not something i was expecting to learn today
i fw remy so hard bro, but dude was so unlucky 😭😭 i like his design (red pants are fucking cool) and even his backstory is interesting. He beats up fighters because he believes they represent all that's wrong with the world due to his personal trauma, but at the same time he seems to know that he's full of shit because he questions if he should even be doing what he's doing in most of his lines.
I really really want him to come back to sf6, we have like 4 shotos already, 2 guiles can't hurt. Make him more aggressive than guile, or maybe just port nash's moveset from 5 onto him, idc, just give me my french long haired emo boy back
They need to change his hate of fighters because his dad was one, into something like seeking justice against his dad for his sister. I think his moves are already called justice strike or something so it works for me.
It all boilds down to Fallen Angels somehow.
You've successfully made me feel sorry for Remy for the first time ever
He's Charlie's son. He thought his dad abandoned his family. Little did he know he gave his life in a "top secret mission."
W theory. Hopefully it's true and they bring Remy back for 6
A good theory but likely not true unfortunately
@JoeMama-me2yj Capcom lore is all made of character concept notes written in pencil, background cameos, and breadcrumbs. Like the reason why Akuma has less health than everyone is because he's a vegetarian who only eats "fruit sandwiches" and lives as a roadside fruit vendor.
@theedwardian okay,but still I'm just saying an opinion...it'd be cool Don't get me wrong but likely it isn't
remy is bad but he still packs a punch, even the bottom tiers of third strike have something going for them with the exception of sean who has a nice dash and has worse shoto normals
Okay it never occurred to me that Ibuki was in three SFs in a row until you mentioned it. That's kind of wild since it feels like Dudley and Makoto are a lot more popular than her.
well ibuki was dlc for sf4 and 5, so she just might be DLC again
Three SFs and SFxT.
@@KlasiqueTV Ibuki was not a DLC in SFIV she was in SSFIV a game expansion which is not DLC.
Honestly in sf6 it would be cool to see all the 3rd strike characters that didnt come back (necro, sean, remy, twelve, and q if you dont count g), but my guess is characters like makoto and the twins are priority number 1 for 3rd strike characters, especially bc they werent in sf5 :P (as a makoto player i'm not super sad about that tho)
I feel like the twins priority is lowered by Jamie being there and fitting a similar concept of traditional martial arts mixed with Street style.
0:45 POV You get grabbed by Makoto once.
I don't think it's fair to call Remy a technical shoto because he's a charge character. But also I love him and wish they'd retool him like Nash to bring him back.
I know I was just poking fun at how vague shoto-ness is sometimes
if they redo remy with motion inputs like nash, wouldnt it be another sagat? because of low fireball
Remy is definitely the one SFIII character you always forget exists
Funny timing with this video cause even though, Remy is low tier Pierrot just won HFS X with him about a week ago.
any links brother? will highly appreciate it. Played remy since 2001
@@rageflash9 ruclips.net/video/YORzIsbT6qo/видео.html
Great video :D I appreciate all the deep dives and alternate arts
In World Tour mode there is actually a billboard that advertises the nightclub Remy's stage is set in front of, so obviously that's a teaser for an upcoming stage AND Remy as a character. They even put his stage theme in a battlepass, so he must be getting into the game!
Definitely...
Oh well, at least I can play as Remy by making him my avatar character in SF6.
Reminder Deejay returned over any SF3 character in SF6. Why.
As a side note Remy needs a second chance he's cool. Guile's fine and all but they're hopefully going to move away from the Shadaloo plot someday. That's why Guile wasn't in SF3 besides throwing out the previous cast, he wouldn't really have any reason to if Shadaloo isn't a threat.
DeeJay is a popular character Remy ain't no where near as popular and interesting as Deejay.. Remy is wanta be Guile/Charlie... DeeJay is a Jamaican Musician who dances and has a original moveset of his own he is at least interesting.. Remy is not
@@DIRTYSOUTHSHINOBI "Deejay is a popular character" my ass. No one cared about him until SF6, and people would rather have Feilong, Cody, Guy, Sakura, Alex, Dudley, Makoto, Ibuki... literally anyone else but him.
Deejay's ALSO a wannabe Guile and such an uninspired stereotype he's not even funny-bad like Dhalsim or Blanka.
dee jay needed a second chance after what they did to him in 4. was he in 5? wait was he in 5 i don't remember
@@novameowww Deejay wasn't in 5.
@@KKHell thank you
If we have three shotos in Ryu, Ken & Akuma
Having Gulie, Nash and Remy in sf6 would be awesome.
Even though the first three shoto’s all use the same fighting style they have differences in strengths and personalities that changes their game plans, special effects, combo routes, attack properties and damage values.
Doing the same for Gulie, Nash and Remy is definitely possible
One thing that should be acknowledged is that having directional Parry’s (high and low) in the game would make it easier for characters like Remy and Sagat perform well if they come back in Street fighter six
Yeah I would love for Nash to return. Don't give a care about Remy F him.
Spoiler alert
They killed off Nash in SF5
Chances of him returning are low
@@cytromancer1692Yes I have played SFV.
Same for bison and there're rumors of him returning. anything is possible.
Nash has more chance of returing unlike that waste of space, sorry excuse of a character Remy.
@AnonymousC2218 yeah, bison is returning, but it's a much more drastic redesign compared to before, and I had a headcanon that bison could have just put nash's soul in a copy body, and bam, now we have a canonical shadow
remy is such a fascinating character. he sticks out like a sore thumb in a game with characters like necro, twelve, and Q, just by being so... uniquely uninspired. i wish you'd gone into his frankly insane story too. he hates fighters because his dad left his family to go fight? O-K makes sense. his sister is currently frozen in a giant icecube at the bottom of a lake that he goes to visit every once in a while?
... what?
i hope he comes back just so they can clarify what the hell they were cooking with that plot, plus i do like his design. making him nb would be really neat, even if they didn't street fighter has so few twinkish men he'd be a welcome addition lmfao
it's like they wanted to expand upon that whenever they were getting around to sf4 but sf4 ended up being 10 years later and a prequel and sfv also was a prequel but it was a sequel to the prequel and then they just kinda forgot that he existed at all. actually that's probably exactly what happened
I remember that in Saint Seiya, Hyoga also have sister/mother who was frozen at the bottom of the lake
Never forget that Abel was going to be a femboy until capcom made him into Alex 2.0
@@billyboleson2830 h u h
He's goddamn Charlie's illegitimate son too.
I just realized Nash is the offspring of Remy and Guile. Military but also less muscley and more twinky, with the 'don't look at me' edgelord hand.
okey, now I need art Remmy mopping around while yelling "you just dont understand, dad" to Cool and Iori as the devastated parents
Remy may be the most unfortunate sf character but he's the best sf twink. Much like how Iori is the greatest kof twink.
This was a great video subbed !
11:47 Im all for long haired boys but HOLY DUCKS now I NEED short haired Remy
Now seriously
Cmon, hes cooler guile
Like, there is a clear difference in how inspired the designs are between the new characters and the classic world warriors
Even with the facelift its still noticeable (and some characters like honda didnt even get the facelift lol)
Just give us new characters 😭
Like i know its hard for capcom to do "new character from new game important pls no forget!!1", but they clearly managed to do it this time in sf6 with Luke, why not going all the way
Rare to see a SF fan who actually likes Remy this much and wants more new characters lol, I agree
iori yagami is masculine enough and also has a girlfriend. His style is effeminate.
Great video, tons of info I never knew of, like Capcom Fighting All-Stars
ed is not a twink!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
remy is transfem though, you're so real for that
I remembered ed looking a lot more twinkish than he really did
I chuckled when I saw Remy because it had been clear for some time by then how hard SNK went with Iori's design and it was apparent that Capcom wanted some
Hey its that guy who stole my sweet moves.
Most third strike characters came back in future Street Fighter entries. Only 4 haven't returned as of now, and that's depending on if you want to count Q as G or not. The reception and fondness of Third Strike has only increased over time.
Remy the must unfortunate character? NECRO EXISTS…
I mean even you ignored he’s existence when talking about the other unfortunate third strike characters. Even here the albino mutant dhalsim gets no love…
If you like remy’s gameplay at least guile exists… (but to be fair I doubt anyone misses Necro’s weird charge-input-dhalsim’s corner gameplay)
(((and I sincerely hope it’s true that everybody loves necro any sliver of hope that “whiteout lab disaster dhalsim” can come back literally gives me life)))
don't get me wrong i miss necro as much as anyone. however, he has actually appeared in the UDON comics, and has actually made exactly one (1) cameo in a game. which isn't really much of anything but it is still somehow more than remy gets. and he's actually decent in 3S. Big Yellow did a pretty good video about him, if you want to see whose style i'm ripping off wholesale you should check them out
@@novameowww fair enough, any acknowledgment of the third strike forgotten ones is welcomed.
And I will check that video out I love any content on the greatly designed but forgotten third strikers. I’m just about to resort to prayer/chanting in hopes that necro is announced in the new season I’ll chant for remy as well, and who knows it might come true, there’s a rumor that some of the season 2 characters would shock people, according to famitsu or so the rumor goes.
Anyways thanks for the suggestion.
@@novameowww hey there’s a vote from now to the 17th on street fighter 6’s fighting hub to select your “Top tier” and Remy and Necro are selectable if there ever was a chance in heaven or hell that either Remy or Necro could come back… I mean they are not going to win but maybe, it seems any opportunity in favor of the neglected and abandoned is worth something.
I really like Remy. I always felt good playing as him to. I personally would love to see him come back. I think they just gotta tweek him, make him a bit more different, tighten up his design a bit (that new art of him that every character got I think looks better already). Maybe get rid of the whole "I hate fighting" thing or explain it better. Id say give him a french accent to make him stand out (since hes from France), but people tend to have a hate boner for french people for whatever reason lol.
Sure he looks like a KoF character, but I find KoF characters way cooler looking than most SF characters. Really wish Capcom would take more chances on their characters and stop relying on SF2 or the same SF3 guys all the time (when they do decide to use SF3 characters that is lol)
If this is a long, informative material on Remy, does that make it a Reminar?
he looks like Iori though 😅
citation needed: the video
honestly. yeah a little bit
i know there's probably a good chance that you didn't intend for your criticism to be constructive but WOOF looking back on it i definitely needed to fix some of the roughness around the edges. especially if I knew it was going to get an order of magnitude more attention than literally anything else I've ever made in my life
Honestly the only niche I can see Remy fulfill in SF6 is maybe if they made his projectiles really wrak, but they had really low charge times, like 20-30 frames. Would at least make him different enough from Guile mechanically but still not enough
What is that clip of Alex doing a robots face 💀
I feel like there are many interesting things to say about Remy and charge partitioning - the difficulties of playing a character who has to hold back or down back in a game where the most important mechanic is that you must tap forward to standing parry.
I know you mentioned that SFIII was a particularly difficult title for Remy to appear in, but the reasons for this are quite interesting, mechanically, and made playing Remy at a high level really challenging.
Personally I'd love to see him reworked in 6. Something like shorter range projectiles which he can charge to do the multiple ones with different paths, a +ob dive kick eith different arcs/angles, a slightly updated look (non-binary as you suggest, or etc.) and maybe a bit more turquoise finger laser effects. Could definitely work without treading on Guile's toes, especially if they make him a motion character instead of charge. He has some bonkers story, shamefully unfinished and could be a good tie-in for Nash & Guile's story, if fleshed out.
I think it's cute that Remy and Ibuki flirt with each other in 3S. If one of them comes back, they should tie the knot!
when did this happen? i dont think the two had a rival fight
They don't, however the Japanese version has unique victory quotes for every character against every opponent.
...
Yaoi hands.
Hes the dan of the guile/nash line.
He definitely not out of it yet for sf6, they could completely redesign him his gameplay like they did with Deejay
I would also like to point out we acfually have the original Guile-Lite in SF6 with DeeJay. And since Nash came before Remy, this means Remy is actually Guile#4.
So yeah no eay in hell are we getting Remy and I'm hurt by it.
Sadly my prediction is that they're plan is generally to repurpose movesets from ThirdStrike into new characters and redesigns like they did with Ed and Jamie.
I realy like the idea of trans-fem Remy because i was actualy so disapointed he was a guy. Here was i thinking Remy was some edgy lesbian but turns out he was just a KOF twink.
His design was dope
I like remy
A command grab version of his neutral grab
Sa3 being a heavy meter usage special or ES move
Sa3 being more of a Ken sa3 with a different input
He feels unfinished
In some concept art, remy was originally supposed to be a handsome character with a multiple personality disorder and his original fighting style was "poison hand" meaning we could have had a fang in sf3rd strike
Also
6:57 femboy jumpscare
hes my favorite character, Sad to think he Will probably never be in another street fighter
This is ironic how one fighter not only shares the same name as a character in Marvel comics, but both can't catch a break in popularity, sales or appearances! Both Remys are just not on the favorites list! One showed up in a Street Fighter game, then disappeared, the other, they killed him off on X-MEN 97!
I always need to fill my hope jar that remy will be in SF6 and i never will stop believing that. Great video on the subject btw. maybe one day my wishes will come true and Remy will finally be real.
Remy is the goat like not many can manage to replace Sagat and Guile
So by that logic, Necro is a goat because he replace Dhalsim and Blanka?
I rather have Necro over the both of em anyway cooler character less annoying
@@garretwoeller7669 That's too bad because both Dhalsim and Blanka are SF6 in while Necro is pending.
Heck who knows he will proberly won't make it because he will take a back seat to other SFIII characters, same goes for Remy
@@AnonymousC2218 Sagat over Remy anyway unless they just make Remy a skin
@@garretwoeller7669 I guess you're a fan of low projectiles, fair enough. 👍
I hate the idea that we can’t have Remy when we already have Guile. And no we don’t need to change his inputs like Nash. Remy is as unique to Guile as Sagat is to Ryu. People are so afraid of 2 similar charge characters but love having 6 shotos in the same game. Great video though I hope he gets redeemed.
There is a reason why Remy won't return because why does he have Guile and Nash is moves which hasn't been explained
man has never heard of twelve (love all my 3s homies, maybe they'll put some of us in 6)
i'd prefer if you didn't call me man but yeah i get it
got ya, pardon the ignorance
@@TheOwlMan8850 don't worry about it
@@novameowww but your profile says "All pronouns" (???)
@@HooglesonInc all pronouns doesn't necessarily mean all descriptors. whole different ballpark
i hope he never comes back because he'd go through twink death and i just can't handle that emotionally. have you seen his sfv era art. if he comes back in 3d with washboard abs i'll be ruined
sf3 wasnt gonna be a street fighter game till very deep in development
9:20
I love a pointless tangent.
I'm a Remy fan, but I'm in peace with the fact he'll never return again.
Never say never, we don't know
I have some hope, and he would look great in sf6
this video is so unhinged lol
that is my specialty
the fucking dave strider at 2:56 oh my god
you might be the first person to notice the dave strider jumpscare
actually i just remembered. people haven't even noticed the other homestuck reference i put in.
Iori is possibly inspired by 70s era David Bowie, and I think it's possible Remy is too by extension
The Guile music theme was a bit too loud but very nice video
Honestly, in the slim chance Remy is added to SF6, he'd probably do well as an Anji-style parry character
EZ fix. Sense he is a mashup of Guile+Sagat just dont have Sagat cuz he too old/shadaloo and have remy instead.
but that's the thing. sagat becomes 10 times more powerful when he's old /j
@novameowww I mean Sagat managed to harness the power of the satsui no hado in SF5, plus sagat is badass
Zoning is pretty rough in 3rd strike but at least they gave Remy super low HP to balance.
I think Remy would make for a good story mode cameo, rather than a fighter. Also, you can make a custom fighter that does Remy things because you have Guile's moveset.
Came looking for yet another video about Remy sucking in 3S and came out knowing the genealogy of fighting game twinks. This was very enlightening. (l love twinks in fighters. Rock Howard #1)
What was Alex doing to that Robot's face?
normal things
Btw there is already an snk vs sf game, sf6. And Remy isn’t going to be in sf6 because Guile is there and he’s better, and he’s cooler and it’s fucking Guile. I love Guile.
I’m the one person who likes Remy more than Guile. I’d love to see Remy in SF6. Just give him Nash’s moveset from SF5.
I say bring him back as Luke's main rival/enemy. They're opposite each other in every single way and it'd give them something else to do besides... existing???
Remy is a good character in the wrong game
As much as im impartial to the character, hed fit right in in SF6.
You earned yourself a sub with the idea of they/them remy
they/themy for short
I'd hope Remy takes Charlie Nash's spot now. Take from Nash to fix Remy's big issues while keeping things people like. People like the low and high sonic booms that can both be on screen. People like their flash kick. His tiger knee dive kick can probably take the place of Nash's jump and suck the life force out of you grab, give Nash's scythe kick and the air scythe kick (I am sure it had a different name). Because I feel with the drive mechanic Nash's gameplay can be fun but he should stay dead and you already got a "other guile" that has people liking the idea of the character
I hope Nash Keeps his spot
Don’t put transgender Remy in my head no no no no now I need it
LET BRO BE IN SF6 HE DESERVES IT
Na he doesn't, he deserves to stay in the vault though
BRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNSSSSSSSSSS
Remy just has so little to work with. Whole new kits are better on new characters, reworked non charge Guile has been done with SFV Nash, and he isn't a long time favorite who was just bad like DJ who deserved a rework. 3S roster has multiple popular characters to add to Sf6 and he's nowhere near getting on that list.
dud people just...forget G was a character? he is tied to Q they expanded on the lore not by a lot mostly hints that is supposed to lead going forward. But Q is for sure kept an eye on by capcom and was refenced in SF5
I thought you'd touch on Remi's depressing-ass story.
I might someday, along with a bunch of other SF character stories i like
I don't know man, sometimes Capcom doesn't really good in designing some new character, like Abel, Rufus, and Remy, meanwhile SNK design for Ash is in another level compared to Remy
Yes, Ash is charging character but it fits with his demeanor, relax and deceptive, so you really can't guess his next move, while Remy, he's really need a lot of redesign, too generic in appearance and really bad moveset 😐
Why does this have so many dislikes??? It's a fine video what.
weirdly enough it says it has much fewer dislikes in the video data itself. i think it might be that some people got pronouns jumpscared at the end really. or less likely, it's just one guy who has 70 alternative accounts idk
@@novameowww Just got the that part of the video so fucking based actually but besides my opinion that would actually be amazing marketing people would love it.

Remy gotta get rid of the charge stuff. High low fireball mixups people would enjoy that. Great video
Remy for SF6
I hope Remy makes it into SF6
I hope he doesn't unless they change his look on his projectile
Yeah I like Remy but rosters are built off of archetypes for the most part and sf6 has guile already so I wouldn't expect Remy back any time soon and given the guest characters which I love (terry is the goat ) and the amount of shotos already in the game id expect them to start releasing dlc based on archetype alone i.e. a true boxer , an animal ( eds gorilla maybe?) unless you count blanka I guess but I wouldn't necalli is a closer comparison to the style im talking about, Gotta have G and rose if the story they've laid out before is gonna continue in any way and oro which if so here comes gill and possibly kolin and I could keep going forever maybe I should make a vid LMAO
10:46 sorry dude but ed's buff, hes just less buff than most of the guys but the thing is that they're super buff
yeah i was so wrong about this that i put this in corrections. genuinely what was i seeing
I think 3S is a great fighting game that has stood the test of time but I never prop it up as the best or nearly the best of the genre. I owned 3S on Dreamcast when I was growing up but I rarely played it outside of sleepover weekends at friends' houses in favor of playing Capcom vs. SNK, Marvel Capcom 2, and Project Justice. My biggest issue with 3S is the roster is weak af and Remy certainly personifies that glaring flaw of the game.
It seemed to me that Remy was a generic grab toward the late 90's Visual Kei boom in Japan during that time, and he would be an easy design for a new Street Fighter character in that vein. Remy sucks as a character since he's just "Guile but lame" but half the 3S roster sucks with him. The joke when I was growing up was 3S replaced great characters with freaks, basically, and it's not untrue lol. If anything, Remy is the least offensive on that front, and rather it's the fact that he's too generic for anyone to remember or care about him since, like you pointed out, he's basically Iori......... but lame.
I think the Alpha series is superior to SF3 but I can respect 3S for having a gigantic depth when it comes to the parrying mechanics. That's its only saving grace since even Alpha has Alpha Counters, Grooves, and a lot more variety, fun, and arguable skill ceilings. I have zero against 3S because I do like playing it from time to time, especially Urien, it's a fantastic game, but I can't vibe with this riding sentiment that it's somehow the greatest fighting game ever. It isn't and I grew up playing these games in the arcades in the 90's and early 00's since I was a little kid who took fighting games seriously.
Remy is the least offensive part of 3S being lame (where it's lame) since uninspired and generic is the least of that game's issues. If Capcom wanted to go that way, they'd have scored a lot more interest in the games if they kept the original World Warriors from SF2, and the game would matter a lot more. People hold up 3S largely because they see the well-known pros since SF4's boom say it's the best fighting game ever when a lot of agreeing heads haven't even played it that much alongside the other 90's and 00's fighters.
Also, nobody wants Remy taking up a coveted slot in SF6 lol. Nobody. *Nobody* at all. I can totally see Sean taking a spot down the line since he totally vibes with 6's aesthetic, but I imagine if he's on the shortlist, it'll be a while since Akuma was just released. I'd also love to see Makoto come back, so would a ton of SF fans, but that remains to be seen. I thought for sure that we'd see Dudley back since he's a fan-favorite but instead we got emo Ed taking up that command input boxer slot which sucks but whatever. At this point, I just want a Rival Schools character or Haggar and I won't ask for anything else for SF6.
SF3 is the basketball of fighting games. When the ball leaves you hand during a dribble, you have to move in the direction the ball is going. When the ball returns to your hand, then it is your time to change things up, but all your opponents know when that is going to happen. It is your job as a player to be unpredictable during times everyone can predict.
With the exception of Ken, all the characters in SF3 are rather terrible on their own. That is the strength of the game. The only way to damage your opponent is to do their limited BnBs, but if you are too predictable, you will get owned by the parry system.
It is also why SF3 is a fan favorite as well. The mechanics and head games are easy for the audience to understand and relate to. A good read will lead to a good parry, which is exciting in itself. It is probably the most watchable fighting game ever created.
You forgot the Garou: MOTW Freeman connection to the chart. Remy is more of a copy of him than Iori on design.
Given that Garou came out half a year after Third Strike, I highly doubt that that's true. There might even be a chance it's the other way around, though 6 months isn't much time, even for 90's SNK. But he does deserve to be on the chart somewhere because I like him
@@novameowwwEnd of the day, it can be called a coincidence
THE WORST STREET FIGHTER CHARACTER OF ALL TIME!
ratatouille guy lol
Heres a better rewrite for his story. Instead of hating fighters and being hypocritical. Lets go with this:
Remy's New Story
Remy grows up in Paris, abandoned by his martial artist father. His sister dies, and Remy vows revenge on his father for abandoning them.
Remy enters the Street Fighter III tournament, hoping to draw his father out by becoming a renowned fighter.
Advancing through the tournament, Remy fights with determination, interacting with various fighters who challenge his single-minded anger.
In the final stages, Remy defeats Gill, who provides information about his father's whereabouts as a reward.
Following the clues, Remy finds his father’s grave and learns from an elderly caretaker that his father left to protect the family from a criminal syndicate.
The caretaker reveals that Remy's father fought the syndicate from the shadows and died in a final act of sacrifice. Remy realizes his anger was misplaced.
At his father's grave, Remy decides to honor his father's memory by fighting against injustice, transforming his quest for revenge into a mission of redemption.
Remy emerges with a new purpose, ready to make a positive impact and forge a new legacy.
Nah. That's Guile from Temu.
Remy will always be the Temu of Nash and Guile
why so many dislikes this was a pretty fun video
oh I saw the ending yeah I can see why
@@koffi_duck they clicked on a video made by a user who has its fursona in front of 2 pride flags as her avatar. don't know what they were expecting
Bikei doesn’t mean “Twink” it means something like beautiful or goodlook
yeah i realized that a bit after from another comment. the "bi" in it is the same as "bishonen" which is slightly more twink-adjacent
