purposely killed for tekken just like how darkstalkers was killed for street fighter so many years ago.
>>
>>383534552
I literally thought the same shit just a few days ago meanwhile I was playing Resurrection on PS3
It's sad desu

Speaking of SC, should I bother with SCV and/or SC2HD Online? both are on sale in PS Store UK (£2.49 and £1.49 respectively)
>>
>>383534552
Pretty much.

90s Capcom:
Hmm, we have 2 labor intensive 2D fighting games. That's expensive, lets dump one and pour our resources into the more popular one.

2010s Bandai-Namco: Hmm, we have 2 3D fighting games (2 of the 3 that exist) that are expensive and time consuming to produce. Let's dump one and pour all our money into the more popular one.

Soul Calibur is stone fucking dead, as is the 3D fighting subgenre.
>>
>>383535119
SC2HD Online
That exists? Can I spam Link's moves and get cursed at over the internet?
>>
>>383534179
Its unfortunate, but it looks like its dead by its master's hand. SC4 sucked but SC5 was alright. I feel like the SC games always had a lot more potential than the scamco was willing to tap into. What a shame. Maybe in the future someone will tap that potential when the inevitable 3rd party replacement comes along.

>>383535295
PS store means no Link, you get Heihachi instead

dude, 3 was the best in the series. Especially that conquest campaign where you can make any class character and customize how he/she looks like. I had so much fun just fucking around with the characer editor and making new builds.

The thing is this isn't an rpg so right off the press you're ready to fight at your full potential

I don't have much hope for it honestly. A shame, it was the only fightan series my friends and I got into enough to regularly play each other. At least Bamco eventually deigned to give me Ace Combat 7.

>>383537629
SC1 is the most highly rated fighting game on Metacritic if that accounts for anything. 4th best rated game of all time.

Also the series was popular enough to get crossovers with high profile IPs such as Zelda, Spawn and Star Wars.

>>383542973
Not him. SC2 was great in a lot of ways, but it wasn't as magical as the original. SC1 had a lot of discovery to it, and it felt like a game crafted by a bunch of people who valued the player experience and wanted to weave that experience into their storytelling. The gameplay was also top-notch, and SC1 is one of the most polished fighting games I've ever played.

Just about everything you did in SC1 unlocked something, like, trailers, character poses, voice sets, etc. The story was interconnected and well played out, and the main cast was likeable and entertaining. Each battle encounter almost felt special in a way, and you wanted to find out what else there was to find, do, or see.

The character designs were also very well done in SC1. It nailed the era it was going for while still remaining a little on the side of high flying adventure and fantasy. SC2, which started the trend, made everyone weirder or outlandish looking, female characters became skimpier, and so on. Later installments almost tried to one-up each other in that department.

Soul Calibur V was an atrocity

Any game that makes online mode the focus feature is garbage.

Story mode/Arcade mode having a story, was the best part of the series
You could learn what, 14 to 24 stories each game.

Instead one story mode. It can be beaten in less than 4 hours.
No weapons master
Only like 4 new characters.
Its set 10 years in the future the only returning characters from the past in story mode is Tira and Siegfried.
And the story was garbage.

The rest of the game is shit ass arcade mode and online match mode.
Thats it.
$60 for 4 hours of """"""""""""""""""original"""""""""""""""""""" gameplay.

I literally sent an email to Bandai and Soul team 2 days later and told them they should be ashamed of themselves.

Holy shit, I'm still made.

Soul Calibur was like my top 5 series

Zelda
God of War
No More Heroes
GTA/RDD
Soul Calibur

If they made a sequel that would have to completely retcon V out of the fucking series.
It was that fucking bad.

FTFY. 2D games are doing just fine, with SF, KoF, Injustice, GG, and countless anime/poverty fighters all in the 2nd dimension.

Meanwhile, Tekken is the only 3D fighter that's currently alive (except arguably Pokken, if you consider that you have 3D movement roughly half the time).

Same can be said for any fighting game if you're not interested in the story.

Its the same group of fuck boys that play COD and think they're bad ass. Or those retards that see fast and the furious or Vin Diesel movies.

How on earth was DoA not stylish?

Otherwise, I can see where you're coming from, considering the near complete lack of effects in VF, flashy or otherwise. I find it refreshing to have a game this down-to-earth that focuses exclusively on martial arts and raw skill, basically like a virtual karate match. Not to mention, the visuals have held up extremely well for a game that debuted 11 years ago.

That was too late. If you didn't make an impact in the 90s, chances to make one after that were very slim. Blazblue and Skullgirls, new IPs from post-90s, are still niche by vidya standards.

nigga you can not have a Soul Calibur game without Kung Fu Elvis, it's just not possible.

that said, I have no fucking clue why they got rid of Talim but didn't even bother to give her a successor, she had a unique moveset and a weapon nobody else had.
>>
>>383545791
They also had original movesets and were not replacing fan favorites JUST BECAUSE.

Kilik/Mi-Na > Xiba
Xianghua > Leixa
Taki > Natsu
Sophitia/Cassandra > Pyrhha
Setsuka >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Patsuka

They seriously fucked up doing this. The roster fucker was the only true sin of the game.

Soul Calibur tied a good story with great fighting, and gave us a great trilogy. Then we got 4 and 5, which weren't that amazing. 4 wasn't that memorable, and 5 was an atrocity to the series in every respect, but the first three games were excellent. Zasalamel was a good character too, both in story and gameplay. 3 also had both Tales of Swords and those extra characters that were essentially reskins, and those features were great.

I just want a game with the following;
>All characters, even the shitty ones from 4 and 5
>Playable Night Terror, Inferno, and other boss characters
>Character splits for Amy/Viola and Raphael. I want Amy's rapier fighting back, and I don't want to be forced to be a gay Spanish vampire if I want to be Zorro.
>Character customization that exceeds all the previous games, with more parts than the rest combined
>Online mode where a disconnect counts as a loss on your record
>Tales of the Swords mode again, with unlockables for customization
>A random mode where you play as any character with any weapon, and matching animations Astaroth with Tira's moveset would be broken as shit

Nah I remember it as the one that removed guard impact, a series staple in exchange for SF pandering EX moves.

>Soul Edge: Not Bad for a PS1 game, but rough around the edges to borderline unplayable nowadays. Still better than Tekken 1 & 2 though.

>Soul Calibur: Objectively the GOAT of the franchise. Had a console port that was better than the arcade release and a perfect mix of content, balance and quick-to-pickup/slow-o-master gameplay.

>Soul Calibur 2: Probably the most popular SC game and a personal favorite, but the gameplay at higher levels suffered with several well-known glitches that ended up getting the game banned from EVO. (Thanks Step-2G.) Also began

>Soul Calibur 3: A game that has an amazing amount of single-player content, but is marred by horrible cast imbalance and several game-breaking glitches, up to and including corrupting save-game data.(And in my case, SC3 also ended up bricking the first PS2 I owned.) SCIII also introduced the character creator and began pandering to a more casual gaming audience.

>SoulCalibur 4: Again, a game with good single-player content marred by a mix of sluggish gameplay, a horribly broken roster, ridiculous guest characters that shouldn't have even been in the game to start with (With one or two exceptions), gaudy designs that show too much skin

>>383559473

FUCK YES! SCV was probably the best game as far as gameplay is concerned, but has the least amount of single-player content and casuals bitched about the lazy-ass timeskip removing characters that didn't need to be cut from the cast.

>>383559473
It was immensely satisfying to play and get good at. SC2,3, and 5 remain my favorites. The first two for single player content and 5 for just how fun it was to actually play.

As far as the fighting game part (the most important part) goes it's the best the series has had since SC1.

It's unfortunately lacking in secondary content but they gave all the TLCL to the part that matters.

Not really. They finally ditched meterless guard impacts but their removal made balance seem a lot worse. The roster had issues and an odd number of clones due to being rushed. Supers were added, and you get a free one if you're down a round.

Honestly sc5 is one of the worst entries and its what killed the series. It would have been a great base game if they kept supporting it though.
