He's technically undead. Or a necromancer. Otherwise, its meant to give off the feeling that his fighting style is bizzarre, because his foot is actually dislocated.

GG's sprites were always a little jank for my tastes. BB's resolution improvements helped, but Arcsys sprites always favored size and variety over fluidity. Old Capcom and SNK spritework generally had more fluid animation and technical composition, but suffered small resolution and reused assets.

CPS2-3 era games still the best though.

it's something used briefly when deflecting blows, anything you see in a picture is exaggerated for training purposes and isn't a stance you would actually take, but it accompanies a weight shift back and to the side so that you can shift weight back forwards for a counterpunch

a textbook karate circular block into a counterpunch is also one of takuma's common moves in most kof games

ArcSys is heavily under the impression that less frames = more 2D.
The 3D models in Xrd are limited to around 15 FPS in movement.

I disagree because Under Night, KoF and a 3rd Strike look amazing with super fluid animation but on the other hand KoF XIV looks really bad and Xrd looks fucking mindblowing so I guess they're right.

What the fuck are you smoking? Also the animations of KoF XIV are similar to the animations of the older games. Even the devs mentioned that they tried to stick 1:1 with the older animations for returning characters. Sure XIII looked pretty, but the animations were no more fluid than previous stuff either. Even SNK's other/older works had more fluid animation than any KoF like >>384477001.

For me it more about the artstyle being so bland, like mediocre deviantart fanart. I can't really explain it, I think Baiken in AC vs Rev is the best example. Some specials with lots of color like Ky's qcb+k clashed with the sprites style. Also attack animations were basic and boring, I don't buy the whole "it's because the game is too fast", Rev and old Capcom fighters on turbo are just as fast with much more interesting animations.

I don't mind low fps that much, though I agree about 3S etc looking great.

Sure, 3D will never look as good as 2D and ages like milk, but it has its advantages and they had their reasons for it. Good ones too since XIII nearly killed them. XIII is pretty, but some of its characters looked pretty off too, one of them being the one you posted (Mai and her 5head, this). This goes without mentioning Roided up Clark/Ralf, Terry with his huge ass arms, Fathena, and headswap Joe/Hwa Jai. Shit one character took one animator months to make for XIII. The battle programmer of XIV mentioned that with the schedule they had he only had 11 days to work on each character. XIV is not amazing looking, but it's not the "travesty to the greatness of KoF" I've seen some people on the internet make it out to be either. Hell the models themselves aren't exactly terrible. They've been put in DoA's and SFV's lighting and they look surprisingly decent. It's the lighting/shaders that screwed them over mostly.

I think XIV has been mostly a learning experience for them since they mentioned that they lacked the tools for making shit in 3D when development of XIV started, had a shit budget, and basically built everything from the ground up since they said they didn't have any previous assets to work with and since they've been historically shit with 3D. Even within XIV you can see some improvements have been made if you look at the way Rock's clothes move. The can only get better from this point.

In short 2D and 3D have their ups and downs.

I did karate when I was a kid and it gave me the confidence and basic technique to beat the ever living shit out of every bully that picked on me. Not gonna say it's all that practical in adult life but it's practical enough for something that's also fun and interesting.

He's standing in a position called (pardon my broken jap) neko achidash, which is a cat's standing.

The idea behind this pose is to put all weight on the back leg and have the front leg free and ready to kick, like a spring.

However:

1. He shouldn't be standing on the top of his back leg, it should be completely on the ground.
2. His hands are in bad position, barely gives him any protection.
3. It's not very common to actually use this pose in a fight, it's mostly for katas.

As for the weird neck pose - sometimes to resist chocks it's good to look down and strength your neck like that, but again, I didn't see anyone actually standing like this the whole fight..

It's not really a gimmick, but his attack animations are literally ripping his own body parts and using them as weapons/attacks, or materializing his blood by cutting himself. Some attacks involve cutting his head off, or ripping his wings off to use as a projectile. His style is pretty much blood, blood, and more blood.

All of which is censored with purple goop in Infinite, and I'm sure half of his original moves will be cut (no pun intended)

A PR guy excused the lack of wolverine and others by saying that characters are just "functions" and the character they want to play as is already in the game as another character, just not the same "character."
>>
>>384485204
Combofiend said that MVC2 Magneto was just a function and that people essentially didn't really like him as a character but what he was capable of in-game. He was saying that in response to complaints of certain characters being missing from Infinite.
Then everyone lost their minds about it for some reason and ran wild with it.
>>
>>384485204
>If you were to actually think about it, these characters are just functions. They're just doing things. Magneto, case and point, is a favorite because he has eight-way dash and he's really fast, right? So, our more technical players, all they want to do is triangle jump and that kind of stuff. Well guess what, Nova can do the same thing, Captain Marvel can do the same thing. Ultron can do the same thing. Go ahead and try them out.

>Everyone keeps mentioning making jedah is friendly, is it confirmed they are censoring him or something in mvci?
Not a drop of blood spilled out of him in the gameplay videos for MvCI, the thing which did was purple goo in some moves, the devilish bastard used to bleed in his idle stance for fuck's sake, and I haven't seen this move of his in any video so far, it was probably cut out entirely.

Man there's something about charachters crying for their mother when dying that makes it a bit worse for me.

>>384490358
It looks identical but with slightly dark purple stuff instead of bright red.

Also i don't really get it, Darkstalkers in other games are never as violent as their own series.

Then you have retards like >>384490776 which are blind too, the first fucking thing you see in the preview is the idle bleeding thing.

Unless you're a grandmaster or something have fun getting a haymaker to the throat from some rando on the street while you lift your hip. Not even denying the value of martial arts, I don't think there are many people nowadays who vouch for the pracitcality of traditional martial arts. The ones that do usually get beat up by some MMA dude.

You can argue about the design but the old Baiken sprite was so plain, with little detail and boring pose
