I think the gem on Charlie’s head isn’t mind control, but something else. In his win quote to Bison he says he came back to kill Bison for killing him or something like that, and his affiliation says, ‘No affiliation’. So, he’s not Shadaloo but may be Illuminati or simply a rogue agent.
I do agree that even more differentiation for Ken from Ryu would be good. But not sure how. Maybe making some of his supers normals like they did with Birdie’s super from A3. Obviously more focus on kicks, flames, and tornado shoryukens.
It’s good to see new faces in the roster.
But it’s also extremely dangerous to remove the fan favorites.
But things are looking good so far.We got Chun Li,Ryu,Bison,and Cammy.
Cammy and Bison might not have been as iconic as the first two i mentioned,but they’re a good addition regardless.
Now about ken;I really like Ken and i wanna see him again.
It’s not that i wont buy the game if he isn’t in it,i’ll buy it regardless.However,i fear for the community’s reaction.Since he’s as equal in popularity as Ryu.Or close at least.
There is also possibility by looking at Nash’s stapled on bits that he is actually part Urien though. That would be shitty.
Also fucking weird because he has a blonde eyebrow on that side.
I said it would be shitty and honestly I want Urien in the game.
The image was just to point out that there is no way, either Urien or Gill are not involved some how in sf5 as playable characters or storyline assets.
They did it for Cammy with V-skill -> Spin Knuckle. As a two button input it’d be even easier for Juri to utilize. Plus that frees up an input for a whole new move!
I’m willing to bet the July 23rd beta will have 2 more characters and the PC beta in fall to have 2-4 more than the PS4 beta has due to the duration of time.
the final beta where they test crossplay will likely have the full roster with maybe 1 or 2 held back for release.
at least that is what I’d want to do if I were Capcom, that way all the bugs and glitches have an opportunity to be caught.
Sodom would be pretty awesome in the new art style, he was always one of the darker characters in SFAlpha(like most of the Final Fight cast). However I think his chances are slim to none. However I’d never have put Birdie on the table as a returning character either, so who knows.
I wonder if he returned if they’d go with the Final Fight/X-ism katanas or the Jitte he uses in other isms and SFA2. Maybe make him use Jitte then switch to Katana’s during v-trigger (if it’s a powerup mode).
