Still, it’s off-putting that they are not making new characters from the ground up. If the idea was to make story characters playable in S2, they should have told us so instead of “completely new to the SF universe” bullshit.
Well,at least we know from where the next ones are coming from. I think Capcom is ok with making happy 2-3 people out of 10, that’s stupid bit is exactly how Capcom is managing the entire DLC department. Probably they’ve decided for an all new pack of characters because they’re more easy to include into the SFV mechanics. Maybe adapt previous,requested characters was too hard for them with so little time. They’ve just confirmed their incompetence mostly looking at the actual state of the game with still issues still not fixed at all.
A nice way to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the franchise,congrats Capcom.
Unless Ed changes things. They haven’t reused assets from Story mode. As we’ve already been over, Kolin’s playable model and story model are not the same. If you are unhappy that characters from ASF are being playable fine, but there hasn’t been on pre-existing model used for Season 2. Part of the reason, besides the obvious silhouette, that people knew it the Kolin was the second character because the mesh of her model got leaked and people noticed that it wasn’t the same model as in ASF. I feel like this is Groundhog Day. This is starting to remind of the argument I got into with a dude that swore up and down Kolin’s Standing MK and Overheard were recycled animations. They aren’t. People need to stop using terms incorrectly. It’s fucking annoying and undermines anything they are trying to say.
They never said they wouldn’t be from Cinematic Story though, and just because they were in Cinematic Story doesn’t mean they’re not new. Cinematic Story is new. You think they’re just gonna waste time and resources modeling those characters and not include the main ones on the actual roster at some point? Come on. Decapre is coming too. Her model and redesigned mask look too good to ignore.
They’re reusing the characters from the cinematic story anyway. It’s like when they’re saying ‘soon’ ,you know something is coming but you don’t know exactly when. Practically the Season 2 Character Pass is like a crossover in basketball, you’re selling the move looking to a direction but you’re going on the other side.
Exactly. I don’t know why this concept is so difficult to understand. Them being the S2 characters is the reason theyre even in Cinematic Story in the first place lol.
