With the way 3d models and animation works in SFV, Eleven could work as an extra char ala Mokujin: each round it has the moves of a different character. Or they could make him an amalgam of existing moves into a char, even customizable for local playing or casual matches.
I’m trying to be optimistic here…

Maybe 11’s gameplay would be very different?
Abigail plays nothing like Hugo. And also Hugo didn’t really work in SF4, so… giving this “new gameplay idea” to a new character was completely justified.
I prefer it over changing a character’s gameplay into something it wasn’t.
About trash characters.
For me, Twelve isn’t a trash character. He probably wasn’t well-received but they tried to bring something new to the table, and at least the design was good, IMO. He also didn’t feel completely out of place with the SF Universe (kind of like Dural on the VF series).
Trash characters for me are:
- Lazy palette swaps including Evil Ryu, Violent Ken, Kage or Juli and Juni and Decapre too to an extent.
- Obnoxious characters with terrible personalities, like Abigail.
Would Eleven be a “lazy palette swap” of Twelve? I don’t think so.
To begin with, Twelve isn’t in the game already, so Eleven wouldn’t be much of a “lazy cheap recycle filler character”.
Second, I think he would have different gameplay features.
In the end, who knows, he could maybe be simply a “modest Twelve variation”, but as Twelve isn’t in the game already, I think that’s perfectly acceptable.
omg stage is godlike

I am very happy with what we saw, also Oro looks great!
Rose’s stage, the animation, her scarf effects, the Tarot card, Dan’s functions, I dig it. Overall the new presentation style is good. Dang, so new training stage and yes, Eleven is a bonus character, so 5th is still a mystery. Hmmm. Good work Capcom, keep it up!

Rose looks great, great gameplay, and the stage is incredible.
I liked it a lot.
As for Dan, his whole “cancel animations” look like too forced, but it seems the gameplay will be worth it.
Did they show a bit of Oro? When?

thread doesn’t care about gameplay.
ANY character can play good. ANY character can play different. That’s no excuse for shitty, repetitive character designs and concepts.

Alright the real concern here is that the character select screen will be uneven when all 5 chars plus Eleven is out. How we fixing this?
