Who are your mains in the series?
Who do you want as guest characters?
What are your pros/cons with the series?
Why do you hate/like it?
Let’s get some Soul Calibur discussion in here, people. (And keep the flaming to a minimum–you only make yourself look dumb. People have varying opinions, get over it)
Personally, I main Talim, with Seong Mina and Sigfried as my secondaries. As for guest characters; I’m hoping (as a long shot) to see some sweet Master Chief on the Xbox 360 version (his weapon, obviously, being an energy sword–and hey, if STAR WARS can happen, Halo can happen, and lets not forget it wouldn’t be Halo’s first foray into a fighting game), either that or Lightning from FFXIII. I dislike a large majority of FF characters, but Lightning is awesome.
Mods: Can we sticky this and me it the official Soul Calibur 5 discussion thread? With E3 on the horizon I foresee a decent amount of traffic to this thread as a good enough reason.
New announcement is godlike. 17 years into the future? Sophitia’s son is main character? New mechanics and characters to come? Methinks I’ve got something else to look forward to at E3 besides the new Nintendo console…
I hope Xianghua is still playable, 37 is not that old, is it? ;_; If not, at least her daughter or relative with similar (read: exactly the same) playstyle…
I dunno, I was already suspecting a reboot of some sorts after SC4 seemed so “final”. The fact that we got Sophitia’s son means that Sophitia and/or Cassandra may be pushed aside this time…
…though it doesn’t necessarily mean that we won’t see 'em in one form or another. Someone mentioned that they could use DLC to bring back “classic characters”, which would be a money-spinner and keep some of the old guard happy for a while…
Here’s hoping they make it not so stupid as 4…and no, I’m not talking about the Star Wars characters. Oh, and also hoping that they either get rid of criticals, or at least make it so you can do them when your opponent’s health is low enough, regardless of their armor status. Truth be told…I wouldn’t mind if they got rid of the hocus-pocus, and went back to the autocombo finishers from Soul Edge.
Astaroth doesn’t age, dude, he’s a golem. See folks, this is why you read character bios and pay attention to the game’s story. It prevents you from saying silly things.
looks like they have promising ideas for online, which is good because 4’s netcode was absolutely trash. I main Xianghua in the last one, I wonder who the guest characters will end up being.
I didn’t say that like I thought he was going to die of old age. I’m just worried that they will kill his ass off with some storyline BS, like what happened to poor Li Long.
Oh yeah, and fuck the Soul Gauge. I hate getting punished for being overly defensive.
i don’t think you understand the speed of the 4th game, it was sufficient. being too fast makes it too hard to block and if you’re just doing unreadable mixups and that’s stupid
