Lil correction, you CAN change characters in custom lobbies so they're basically perfect actually. Someone just told me you couldn't and I believed them which was dumb cause they also tried to convince me Honda LP Headbutt was 0 on block during week 1 which was pretty fucked up and evil
That's block level cringe I must say
Literally just May's Mr Dolphin but genuinely annoying
@@sailorhatguy5763mr dolphin but in a game where not everyone has a universal one button antiair
@@sailorhatguy5763 isn't there a version of mr dolphin that is plus on block? tbh I had way more problems with mei than with honda because of that.
@@10Edguy there are two versions of me dolphin. One is unreactable but minus, and one is reactable but safe. They both lose to 6P, the universal special cancellable antiair
This is probably the weirdest way to describe your yassification but it looks like you will eventually just metamorphosize into an 80's rock star and I'm all for it.
I AM SO GLAD TO KNOW I WASNT THE ONLY ONE WHO THOUGHT THE SAME THING!
same, honestly
Big Yassow
Please never say "yassification" ever again
@DMSwordsmaster damn you're right
I love JP so so much. I walk with a cane and I never imagined I'd ever see a cane user in Street Fighter - let alone one that gets so much so right! So much care went into making him behave as if he really and truly is a disabled man who walks with his cane. My favorite detail by far is that his kicks tend to be performed with the leg on the same side as his cane. You're supposed to hold your cane on the opposite side of your weaker leg, so that means he's kicking with his stronger leg! And when he IS kicking with the weaker leg, he supports himself on his cane!
Holy shit that's actually so fucking cool, I knew they did research on English cane fighting but actually being tru to the cane user experience is so based
Oh that's awesome!!
Pimp JP sweep
That or the fact that he uses psycho power with the right hand but normallly has the cane on his left causing him to switch his holding hand each time you use a special. The theme of duality is all over both his visual and gameplay desing.
Thinking about this makes me so happy i'm so glad for you.
street fighter 6 is one of those games that you can play. you can press your buttons and things occur on the screen. characters move based on your input.
sf6 input reader is genuinely fucked tho
so true

Street Figther 6 feels like Capcom just woke up one day and say "Oh yeah, I can make good games" then proceeded to crank out the best fighting game in years.
2023 in general feels like a Goated year for Capcom.
Capcom has been pumping out good games since RE7
When the suits let the devs remove their limiter this is what we get
exoprimal feels like the exact same thing but replace good with bad
theres like nothing to do
Probably the best vanilla version of a streetfighter of all time. Cant wait to see how the game evolves overtime with each season
what about 4
@sonicphoenix7 Sf6 is currently better than USF4 imo, so it's definitely better than vanilla
eh id take vanilla sagat over usf4 elena any day
@@sonicphoenix7 Vanilla SF4 seems fine on paper, but it had some of the worst balancing I've ever seen in a fighting game (Sagat, Akuma, Zangief, Vega)
By comparison SF6 is extremely well balanced
I really like that they added the entire SF2 roster to this game because of the audience this game is targeting. This game went all in on attracting new players, and I think a new player being able to say "I play Zangief" or "Gee I sure do hate fighting Dhalsim" gives them something in common even with players who have been playing for 30 years. These characters are emblematic of their archetypes and it allows someone new to the game to easily understand and assimilate themselves into the culture of the FGC in a really cool way by having those shared experiences.
Not the entire SF2 roster, since the Four Kings are missing (obviously Bison's dead, but where are the other 3?)
Blanka and Honda should’ve stayed out.
@@AirLancernot the later editions but the entire world warrior roster
For me it contributes to the "greatest hits" vibe SF6 has going for it. You've got the characters from 2, you've got a bit of the vibe and parry from 3, you've got a bit of the focus attack from 4, and it feels like the natural continuation of what SF5 was building towards.
@@AirLancer sagat has got to make a comeback im really wishing for it
As a Juri main, her portrayal in SF6 is by far my favorite. She's just a hater, a spiteful little spider gremlin, I love it
It's actually wild how much i like juri in sf6 because neither in 5 nor 4 did i ever even consider playing her!
@@ShikiRyougi05 Crazy what happens when they give her a personality beyond "horny about evil"
@@kaleidoslug7777 truly
Her facial expressions are perfect. Love how she just goes full Wicked Witch of the West at times
Your comment on the game nurturing a desire to improve is really spot on.
This is my first Street Fighter, and I started out unranked in Challenger. But over the past few weeks, I've managed to improve enough that I've grinded my way up to Platinum.
It's been so fun to win a bunch, lose to someone, and really understand where your mistakes were. And the training mode makes improvement a breeze. It's really good.
The frame meter is genuinely one of my favorite things in SF6. Having an in-game tool to answer every question I could have about a move has streamlined learning the game so much. I’m so glad I don’t need to have a spreadsheet pulled up on my phone while I’m playing.
"Watching JP choke the entire cast made me realize things about myself I wasn't ready for." -
My brother in Christ you're literally wearing a _choker_
Choker? I hardly know her!
SF6 is my first fighting game in... like 15 years? probably ever. Wife and I picked it up after we found ourselves going on for hours just on the demo, and as my first fighter, I gotta say there's something about this game that just makes me want to get better at it. I main Lily (you're right, she's a skronkly bonkly and she's adorable) and going from just mashing buttons to slowly figuring out a gameplan and getting better at executing it felt so rewarding and natural. Modern controls were a huge help to break past the execution barrier at the beginning and just focusing on what I was supposed to do! I've switched to classic for her, but maybe I'll try modern to learn basics of any character I want to try out before commiting ya know?
Mind, I'm still very very bad and the Ken matchup makes me cry in the corner (the only place I get to be in during it lol), but I enjoy knowing I'm a lil less terrible than before every time I boot up the game.
Hell yeah ! It's great to hear you're enjoying it so much, I've also been playing it with my partner and I've clocked in about 130 hours already, definitely my favorite fighting game and I've been at it since SF2 was still big, maybe only Tekken 7 is equal in my eyes.
8:14 sf5 ryu looks like he's actively trying to throw you down and punish you for whatever you're doing but sf6 ryu is like "ken. you've been drinking too much. give me the car keys."
I honestly feel like Luke should be counted amongst the newcomers considering he was originally conceptualized for this game & back-ported to SFV. Even in the official material from the staff, Luke is grouped with the other newcomers.
My favorite part of this video is at 1:40 when The Big Yellow™ cuts to the purple screen when where they display their graphics, only to cut back to face cam 3 seconds later without showing anything. Little easter eggs like this is what separates great youtubers from the best youtubers. Life-changing experience.
I started watching big yellow about two weeks ago and I’ve been just downing all the content available got me back into rby and everything…..I’m genuinely loving big yellow.
Talking about the channel like it’s a new sports drink
@@lebigpeanutguy9996 it is my new sports drink bruh wake up and it’s big yellow time
1:15 back when Ultra Street Fighter 2 came out on Switch, me and my buddy Will played it a shit ton because Smash wasn’t out yet. That game had a custom color maker, and, for some reason, 15-year old me thought it was absolutely hilarious to make an all-green Ken skin and call him “The Green Giant” like that guy from the veggie commercials. Wasn’t expecting that hit of nostalgia today.
Every review I've seen describes Dynamic Controls as "little brother mode" when it's actually one of the most carefully crafted accessibility tools in video games. It cannot be understated how important a feature it is and I hope it becomes a mainstay of the series.
Also, super weird how custom rooms allow up to 16 players but only 4 games at a time. What gives?
That and the fact that we miss the beautiful character select screen+ walk up animation, I really hope Capcom adds that in as they did with V on private rooms.
Going from Bison who was just a pugilist with Purple Magic to someone that actually relies on the mysterious power feels brilliant to me. Actually central to JP's gameplan and creates a drastically different visual combat style.
When I first saw the alt costumes I was worried they would only be available via microtransaction, folks would have rightly complained but they absolutely could have gotten away with it. If World Tour bores or repulses a person I can see how that's irritating but I was thrilled that there was a way to get them via gameplay.
JP is not only an NRS character in terms of zoning. Most of his moves juggle, which is a trait of NRS games, where every hit is capable of juggling as long as it hits the opponent, with no specific juggle rules like SF.
Which season we get a Guilty Gear character?
(Aria, please!?)
XD
Love how everyone uses that one pic of luke in thumbnails
JP is sick, SF6 is the first SF I've really cared about and he was my instant main coming from an MK background
Fun fact: cammy's cat pfp comes from an april fools game capcom did in 2020 were you could collect cat versions of the street fighter characters, specifically its cammy's catzona.
capcom please bring the funny street fighter cat game back it was actually so fun
WUT
Link please?
it was april fools only, its gone now :(
@@thomaschristensen2941 Q_Q
I found out that you can still play neco drop 2
Was it like Pocket Fighter?
completely off topic but your taste in game OSTs is so fire
lately i've been going back and listening to old fighting game soundtracks for the first time and I keep finding new songs that make me go "oh shit!! this is the song from that one big yellow video!!"
Jamie's theme in SF6 is the best theme in the history of themes
Legit tho hearing One Step from Eden in one of the previous vids and now Mega Man X5
Utterly based
"Be just or be dead II" from GG2 is probably the best song from a fighting game i have ever heard. Specifically the GG2 one.
Great video! Thought I'd mention Rivals of Aether also has replay takeover and it actually helped settle a petty debate about "what if I did X" for me once. Wish more games had that!
Despite the damage nerf, Perfect Parry into SPD makes me feel like a god.
A few things:
I don't think you mentioned that SF6 has an online training mode, aka having a training mode that you and a friend can access and train together via an online lobby. It's a rare feature that is greatly appreciated here
The SF6 servers have been experiencing intermittent issues with more than just matchmaking breaking. Hopefully they'll get these issues resolved and it'll soon be a non-issue.
40:00 from what I can tell all the non-dp motions have only a single requirement from their execution and is for all primary directions (up-down-left-right) to be inputted. In the clip Lily doesn't get her 360 because forward was never inputted. However you can get a 360 simply with forward, down, back, up as your only motion inputs (I've even heard it doesn't matter the order you input them although I haven't tested this out myself). Also I have zero idea what the rules behind the dp motion are, you'd need to ask someone else.
I think SF6's greatest strength is that it respects your time. You pointed out some things but I'd say every aspect of SF6's design lends itself to this goal. Outside the gameplay itself you have a lot of options on how you want to enjoy the game, you have fast loading times, and you have fast rematches. And when it comes to the gameplay itself you have a lot less of the core gameplay locked behind execution, the rounds are faster, and each new round is a lot more of a clean slate thanks to the drive gauge system. You die due to failing to react to a drive impact? You've got the next round with full drive gauge to look forward to. You lost the game to that? Rematch and start playing again within seconds.
Also I can't stress enough how much shorter rounds that start on a relatively cleaner state make losing feel so less bad. I think it's a major reason why Tekken 7 is way more popular than it has any right to be. Even if the opponent got an opening on you and is running explosive offense on you, either you get out of it fast or you die fast. It minimizes the time feeling helpless and fuels a much more positive "I've got this next round/match" mentality.
i usually do forward-back-down-up for 360 because i'm playing on keyboard, so yeah, can confirm it can be in any order. i actually do the same in SF3
I love how Yellow was genuinely surprised that they didn’t have the choker on. Like it straight up became a part of they’re identity.
Their not they’re my bad.
"JP choking out the entire cast has made me realize some things about myself that I don't think I was ready for, but that's okay."
If you get a chance, and haven't already, watch some of the JP play from yesterday and today at Redbull Kumite. The East seems to play JP a bit differently than our best JPs in the West, and you love to see that kind of "PLAYER EXPRESSION."
Will defo check that out, haven't watched a ton of the game while working on this so I've a lot of catching up to do
How did the different regions play differently?
That David Attenborough bit with Blanka was amazing, great stuff!
one of the issues with drm (denuvo included) is that it just doesn't work
like, pirated copies just disable or remove the drm, then tell the server that they haven't, and it can't tell because the program is running on the end user's computer and thus can be tinkered with. google stadia could be read as an attempt at anti-piracy stuff since they were running the program and streaming it to you, but that imposed a ton of lag, and ultimately the thing is
drm is a company attacking its consumers for something they don't do, making their experience worse in an effort to stop information from being free, and information wants to be free so it just doesn't work past maybe day one (some games are cracked before they even come out, i think the longest i've heard is like, a month)
Haven't watched the full video yet, so I don't know yet if you tackled this topic, but I thing I love is that the game rewards you a lot for mastering the new universal mechanics shared by all characters. I know it's stll early to say, but I feel this bodes well for the future, and I got the impression that I can do okay and have a lot of fun with my secondaries even without knowing all the character-specific stuff.
Also I love how simple the resources feel. Super meter is just for supers which imo helps prevent snowballing and makes it a lower mental load. You're mostly worried about drive gauge, and while it has several competing uses, it still feels pretty intuitive and predictable.
Agreed, this is similar to how easy red roman cancels are to use to extend combos in Strive. You can pick up any character there and probably do a normal-normal gatling xx special and then just extend that with a cancel and do the exact same thing again.
I think SF6 is just REALLY well-thought out in a level we couldn't appreciate until we got more hands-on time with it. Getting raw DI'd sucks but you don't feel like the mechanic is unfair because you can punish it just as hard as someone might abuse it, the way the defensive options work pretty well but aren't overwhelmingly strong means you can design offensive tools that don't need to be opressive to be viable, a lot of things just feel...right, y'know?
They also added a lot of small touches that make the experience lighter, like doing faces in the versus screen (which now that I think of it might be a clever way to make you not fixate on the points underneath) or the chill-ass BH music. Fighting games are stressful as fuck, I think they might be the most stressful type of game, between the twitch reactions and the complex inputs required to play. Having something to take that edge off is nice. Playing SF6 is this smooth-ass experience that finally feels like a AAA fighting game should feel, it's awesome.
The amount of care put into it is staggering, definitely.
24:30 Yomi hustle has that replay feature too, if you count it as a fighting game
most fighting games are way too hard for me, im the type of player strive was made for, but man does sf6 look incredible on all levels.
gameplay aside, everyone just looks so cool. i love how wiggly wobble dhalsim gets when he drive rushes
Nice video, as an added bonus regarding Replay Takeover, to my understanding the first fighting game to implement it was EFZ (Eternnal Fighter Zero) but this feature comes from Dota 2.
As of now all of this game have it:
EFZ, +R, Breakers Collection, BBCF (Mods iirc) and some FC2 games.
imo everybody crying about everyone being cheap is a testament to how well rounded the balancing is, especially for half of the roster being hot off the presses.
if everyone's a problem all is good with the world
Whatever happened to "git gud"? LOL
Glad we got your thoughts on SF6, it looks like a fun game.
I hope you enjoy MK1 and Tekken 8
I like how there’s three characters in “characters people call top 2” just to show how goofy modern tier list meta has become.
Also, YOMI Hustle (which is a turn based weird ass “fighting” game) has replay takeover.
WUT
0_o

My only concern with Modern controls was that it would be like all the other underused/forgotten simple controls of previous games (SF x T, Blazblue, MVC3, Xrd). I'm glad I was wrong.
Lily is dope. I played her day 1 but I gave her up for Luke since I was having more fun playing him. mad respect for those Lily players making the character work. Also Gief is so amazing I LOVE the WWE wrestler feeling.
I'm in silver 4-5 but yeah I'm definitely trying to improve.
For me the battle pass is actually a good thing, the point is to keep people playing the game long term and it's nice that the premium pays for itself and gives you music to play in the battle hub.
Inputs are iffy and it's happening to even high level players. Most of my stuff is raw super instead of dp but honestly I should stop mashing dp anyway.
i feel you, crouch medium punch into DP without doing a super still scares me to this day in SFV
Eh hard disagree on the battle pass, it’s payed, and the game is already hefty in price and capcom doesn’t really need a squillion more dollars they have well over enough. Should be a free cool drip feed
this is deepest analysis on sf6 with great sample videos i ever see. Thank you so much
As someone who’s currently attempting to make a fighting game (albeit a platform fighter) I’m really interested in what makes SF6 as incredibly enjoyable, gratifying and accessible as so many people say it is, as that’s not something I’ve really seen being a super common opinion with other fighters, and I’m really interested in what design choices they made for that to be the case.
That aside though, this video has kinda inspired me to look into playing SF6 if it’s not terribly expensive because it seems generally really fun and rewarding, so thank you :)
I like Luke a lot, but the real MVP is his VA Aleks Le. The goober gooby goblin energy came from him.
"SF6 is [the] first complete uncompromised fighting game experience" - I 100% agree and it's really weird to have a fighting game without any "but," or "it's good except for...".
It's just............. solid. Real good. My favorite fighting game of all time? Dunno - still in the honeymood period, but I've never had a fighting game go this long with no downsides. It's just weird to see such a complete product in CURRENT_YEAR
Great analysis! Love that you gave world tour some props despite it not being your scene, because as a person newer to fighting games it was a super fun way to learn key mechanics. It was also a great way to fulfill my dream of being a goth martial artist.
In regards to performance, I have a 2060 and world tour was definitely a little crusty. I ended up turning on the option to pre warm shaders (or something to that effect) and it seemed better, though that could be placebo.
JP is the most fun character in the game. Genuinely one of the most well designed boss characters in any fighting game
"Dripped out, DILFed out, keep-out king"
JP looks just like Darkrai from Pokken Tournament. he can also set up "cracks" in space and some other traps and either let them go off automatically or trigger them manually.
I remember that game!
(Switch trial)
Once again, there’s something wonderful about you gushing about fighting games. Not my scene (not just SF6, non-Smash fighters in general), but it’s still fantastic to listen to you talk about them, and it even makes me want to maybe try and find the fighting game for me, as well.
That said, there’s the issue of how technical these games tend to be: getting into one of these isn’t just hard because of existing competitive scenes, but from how hard learning to play them is in the first place. I enjoy everything you talk about from a distance partly from fear of getting my @$$ beat, but with competitive Gen 1 Pokémon, I at least feel I could get my head around it (and that’s without having played anything prior to Gen 3 spin-offs). Fighting games, you do not go far if you don’t know what you’re doing, if the game you’re playing lets you go at all. Case in point: Them’s Fighting Herds. Got it because I was into MLP (much prefer the original form it evolved into though), real glad it exists…but me trying to play that just kinda didn’t, even the easy AI destroyed me.
I still have some semblance of a Guilty Gear bug from watching your stuff, and I heard earlier today that Strive can actually be a good entry point into serious fighting games like that. Not sure when I’ll get around to getting Strive, though, or any GG for that matter despite my interest, but it’s on my radar now. In the meantime, though, I could reinstall TFH and bash my head against it again; after all, I already have it on hand, and have an interest in it if only for the characters.
Edit: I actually just went back to TFH after writing this. Going through the tutorials is helping, but also bringing back the brick wall. Particularly when the combo and special tutorials came up and I just couldn’t seem to clear them…and then when I finally did it hit me: even the tutorial sections wanted me to put in the inputs within frames of each other. Which my brain just is not fast enough to keep up with. Forget the opponent, I’m struggling to handle my side of the fight.
You need to listen to the french stage theme Fête Foraine, it's such a good song and I listen to it outside the game
Why is your hair so ludicrously luscious I am actually jealous
Your hair is so ducking gorgeous omg, to think I watched it grow since last year when you were posting about RBY bugs. Love your videos
This game has been an absolute blast, the characters are super interesting and fun to mess around with. I was having such a hard time figuring out which of the cast I wanted to play, but genuinely the character guides sold me so hard on Manon and Jamie that almost all of my play time since has been with them.
Except for playing Dee Jay, my first time actually enjoying a charge character! He's so much fun and super tricky, the moment at CEO where two guys danced to Level 3 at round start was amazing to watch.
Edit: I spent WAY too long just laughing to myself at that Modern Luke top 8 gag, especially when I noticed one of them was fucking Tokido XD
Regarding DP's, you can press forward, let go of the stick so it returns to neutral, and then do a 236 and still get a DP.
It basically creates a timeframe where you can't do a 236 if you have a 623 on the same button, that lockout being 6 frames after releasing forward.
Basically, if you hit forward, you gotta let go of it for more than 6 frames before doing a fireball, or you will DP.
This makes a lot of sense, I've always avoided chars with DP motions cause I'm ass at them on player 2 side, so nice to know I was spared from this
@@BigYellowSilly Me too friend, lemme tell you when it comes to stressing about shit in SF6 that's always my biggest stressor, whether or not I've let the game calm down from pressing forward, a very stimulating activity even for capcom
Wait
I've seen that before...
Samurai Showdown?!
@@Holidoll I'm remembering one if those multi game cabinets with the movelist on the side, and it had a couple of fighting games...
Maybe it was for another?
I definitely SAW it, though
Then again there's SIX SamSho games before the latest one.
I’ve been playing cammy in 6 and enjoying myself so so so much. Getting my combos down has not only felt rewarding but super possible
I love how your style has been going back in time with every video until you’ve become a part of the 80s
I've never managed to get into a fighting game, and I'm hoping maybe in time I can give SF6 a proper try.
Seeing as how I've never gotten into a game like this in the past, paying full price for a "Lets see if I enjoy this" is a big ask... and I've also noticed that there isn't a single character in this roster that appeals to me yet.
Maybe in a year when the next batch of DLC characters is coming out and sales happen I might give it a go. Cuz it DOES look amazing.
I feel like the Battle Pass only has relatively inconsequential stuff because of 2 reasons:
A. They're gauging the reaction to the Battle Pass. If it's hugely negative, they can always just do away with it and say "hey we listened, no more Battle Passes." If positive, or at least neutral, then they can start putting cooler stuff in the Battle Pass like costumes.
B. It makes it so people who really just want to play Street Fighter don't have to give a shit about the BP.
I'm genuinelu impressed just hoe much fun I'm having with SF6. Coming from an anifighter background, this game ended up breaking a lot of barriers for me. I thought links would be the bane of me but they're surprisingly manageable. I like how much sauce the Drive mechanics add to an otherwise very reserved series pace-wise. And most surprisingly of all, I somehow ended up maining a charge character, and I thought I wouldn't stand these inputs. Deejay is jus too cool, what can I say. It's not my favourite fighting game ever (tall order measuring up to BBCF) but I've been having a blast regardless.
Gotta disagree about the music though. It's still kinda whatever imo (or bad if you're Juri, and I keep running into Juris all the time help). One of the main reasons I've got it on PC is to hopefully mod in some better tracks at a later date. I have no idea why they decided to put one of the best tracks in the world map screen though put it somewhere where I can appreciate it more smh.
I think jamie's track is pretty fire.
@@brian_cream
That one's the exception. The only battle theme I've been listening to outside the game - a genuine banger.
My favorite part of the training mode is that you can record actions to do after block. It finally allowed me to make a training drill for fireball traps where a simple after block isn't enough.
I'm glad you used the CvS sprites for blanka and honda, such an untapped mine of memes
Hate down down inputs. I don’t mind them if it’s a trap that I’m setting up, or some type of slow projectile, yk something I don’t need to get out immediately, but for Chun anti air it’s a pain. I call it a 4 button anti air cause if im holding down I have to see the jump, let go of down, down, n, down+kick and that’s just a lot of buttons. Genuinely prefer shoryu input
I really like Chun's design in this game because she actually looks like a person unlike sf5 where I honestly kinda hate her design
I want to learn Chun Li because her visual design is *mwuah* but god damn is she brutal to play. In general I like all the new costumes but especially hers.
I kind of forgot Chun Li and Juri were supposed to be asians cause of how they were styilized before
omg big yellow ily
Big Yellow gets more and more slay every time they make a video
Dude loving your hair. Also as someone who hasn’t played a fighting game before, I really loved this game and I’m glad it’s not just because I’ve never played a fighting game before
This game has been so much fun, im loving it!. Something very underrated is having seperate ranks for each character.
The time freeze is so small of s thing… but also so deep as a … mechanic. People are using the freeze , to fuck up your block timing on incoming projectiles. Jamies use the freeze , which occurs on lv4 drinks , to scout, if the opponent is jumping in the freeze to get a free and easy anti air. Its a sick game. It will be months and months to see people optimize this game, and will be insane to see the difference to launch, if people become close to optimal. I cannot even imagine yet.
I hope Ed keeps his simple inputs in 6 while gaining new motion moves to spice up between classic and modern controls, especially since thats what people play Ed for in the first place and he has some fun stuff in 5.
Zach Hadel scream was a welcome surprise to my cochleas. Can't wait for the analysis video on Chris PWNeill's impact on SF6.
I was literally watching an Oney Plays compilation before this.
I haven't picked up sf6 yet and idk if I will at all because my pc can barely handle it and I'm not super interested in any of the characters, but one thing I need to give it credit for is player inclusion. sf6 is a game that tries to get you into the meat of fighting games as fast as possible, and the fact that it managed to do that without visibly lowering the game's skill ceiling is insane to me. People often undermine how important it is for a fighting game to be noob-friendly, not only does it help more people get into the game but it also populates the lower ranks with tons of beginners, so people don't have to get run over by much better players to learn and are more likely to stick with the game as a result.
Building a big playerbase, especially one with a lot of beginner players, is to me one of the most essential pieces for a fighting game's success. It might sound obvious, but the game i've been playing instead of sf6 since i don't have it is rushdown revolt which came out a week before it, and while i absolutely adore the gameplay the playerbase is near nonexistent, so finding matches often involves asking in the discord, and since i live in south america the potential playerbase becomes even tinier. Despite being very approachable for beginners, the fact of just not being popular means the game has a tiny playerbase, and becuase finding matches is such a problem i haven't been playing it as much as i wish i did. Funnily enough, i might have more interest in sf6, the game i don't even own, than in rushrev, just because the game being popular and fresh out of the oven means all the fgc youtubers i watch are making content on it, while nobody talks about rushrev ever because nobody's playing it
32:04 When your character punched that guy into the stratosphere I fucking laughed out loud like holy shit I thought you were just gonna ask to challenge them but NAH UPPERCUT MFFFF
I think Battle Hub/Casual is the definitive way to gather matchup knowledge with your character. I come from 3rd Strike on fightcade so playing long sets is something I’m used to. SF6 Ranked (at the moment) feels a bit unbalanced when it evaluates your placement matches, and overall just isn’t my thing. Short sets are nowhere near as satisfying as a ft10 or a ft15.
Street Fighter 6 was my most anticipated game for damn near 2 years, and I had super high hopes for it, and then it turned out to be even better than I thought it was going to be.
It has some problems obviously, Drive Impact being borderline overpowered at Low-Mid level but near useless at High-Top level (because you get countered 99 times out of 100) is definitely going to teach players bad habits, and for some reason Capcom are just too scared to make Gief a High Tier.
But as a whole, this game feels like a full package on launch which is something I haven't felt about a new fighting game in a long ass time
As a JoJo's player I LOVE modern controls. I just wish we could configure them more. like sure, having 1 button supers is nice but I'd like to be able to force myself to play a hybrid without the temptation to rage hit the easier input
36:33 I chucked a little bit when this came up
I can’t wait for my birthday in 2 weeks so I can hopefully get SF6 and play it competivley since the Smash Bros scene is looking more grim every day
I've been suuuuuper enjoying sf6. Been a bit stressful playing ranked because I main zangief 😅 but like you said, it's very convenient, and accessible. I hope it stays relevant for a long time because I don't think I'll be getting bored of it any time soon.
I went in to SF6 wanting to try out a bunch of characters, like Juri, Cammy, Ken, Manon, JP, but I have literally only played Jamie so far and I love him so much. He’s so much fun and he’s so cool and also hot. Everyday I think “y’know maybe I’ll try Manon today” and then I just keep playing Jamie
I love how you go into the nitty gritty of the game mechanics. More interesting instead of a general overview.
The review I was waiting for 🙌
Glad to hear your thoughts and that you're enjoying it
10/10 game ngl
This game has had more Megaman in it then the past 5 years since 11's release
Not counting legacy collections?
@@ultimapower6950 Or the ZX collection?
i love how the level 3 animations take a while gives me time to think about me next move
Eternal Fighter Zero also features replay takeover, in fact it had it before +R!
I think i can count how many times i've gotten accidental supers in SFV on one hand but i get accidental supers all the time on sf6.
I was never a Street Fighter guy, but this game has some really fun shit, specially with starting the round with full meter and being allowed to "gamble" on parries (although it's not that risky a lot of the time).
I'm also very much in love with the concept of punish counters. Whiff-punishing things on reaction often feels like a difficult, low-risk, low-reward thing, but now it's very explosive. Getting a counterhit was never as satisfying unless you were punishing someone in a counterhit state.
40:53 day 1 performance being so bad is actually unrelated to denuvo. this game's PC port compiles shaders on the go, meaning every time a new visual effect happens (e.g: ryu throws a hadouken for the first time) your performance tanks as your GPU's putting the shader together before actually rendering it. second time that effect happens, there will be no framedrops as the shader has already been compiled
you can prevent this from happening by going to options > game > other settings > turn "shader warming on startup" on > go to title screen/restart the game. this'll make your PC take a few minutes to compile every shader in the game beforehand, meaning no more FPS drops when stumbling into something new
Thank you for mentioning the Barbarians that make an appearance in fightcade's chat. Cause God damn.
Just want to say I appreciate that moment near the end where you gave your "condolences" if that's the right word, to folks who haven't been enjoying sf6 as much.
I have no skin in the game, lol. But it's very thoughtful of you. Ya goober
I haven’t played sf6 and probably never will but I still watched this video, love your video style so much
i’ve been looking forward to hearing your thoughts! thanks for the video :)
I like sf6 as well, jamie is really cool because hes an alchoholif just like me
I suck at fighting games (I’m like, Iron 4) but I’ve been having a blast playing 6.
Aleks Le genuinely made me a luke main and idk how to feel about it
6:53 Mhm, and it's only just begun. Broski actually found a really nasty setup/combo you can do with back throw in the corner and the portal spike that does insane damage due to a weird interaction making it basically start unscaled. I don't know if you'd be interested in learning that but I'll just leave this here c:
Broski has the video of it on his channel and he explains how it works btw
I really love this game it's so fun to play, it has a good starting roster and the game play is great. This game has creativity and player expression and it's also fun to watch.
That edit of Luke painted red is one of the funniest frames I've seen in a while
This video is the best argument for me to buy Street Fighter 6 I've heard as someone who doesn't play this type of fighting game and feels offput by the traditional input system but is interested in the series. Enjoyable single player modes are a big thing for me and the multiple control styles seems like a great way to ease into the game. And I can scarcely turn down a good character creator. I'm going to have to keep my eye out for sales on this title
Hey. Master Ryu here, I love your content.
