Street Fighter V Roster Discussion |Thread 2| Deal with it & place your hope for DLC

By that logic if you saw all the Bengus art first for each character before seeing them in-game you would assume all the characters are going to be white correct? Or "white washed" as you put it. You still haven't answered my original question on this but that's alright.

Following Laura's tones and colors is there something wrong if they make his skin color lighter? By examples here already of someone who is black, he/she got more black as they got older. If you want realistic representation, by that logic, Sean should be whiter since he's younger than in 3S. Brazilian "races" cover so much diversity (of course due to the history of the region). Dood, some people can change "races" just by staying out tanning in the sun.

Your arguments are fuzzy to begin with and then you have a problem if his skin gets lighter. I feel dumb for even having typed all this.

What's wrong with having a problem if his skin is lighter?

I think the person with the issue is you. We already settled this a page back when we all decided that maybe, just maybe, it's a product of Bengus' art being shit.

I have a problem if Sean's skin will be lighter in V. If that bothers you put me on ignore. I don't give a FUCK and I won't apologize for shit.

Nash - Introduction video

This video taught me that he has a super amazing V-Trigger, a cool teleport and pretty much nothing else. These introduction videos should really talk about the best standing buttons, jumping buttons, his crush counters and stuff people actually use instead of wasting time on 12 hit combos they don't even explain.

It'll probably get released eventually, people will run out of things to buy with fight money. Also PC is gonna have all sorts of crazy color mods and eventually costumes.

Yeah, I know. I just flipped out for a second there because the perception that we're getting a "barebones" SF has been growing lately. Then we see other countries getting exclusives and it just grinds my gears. Capcom should be throwing the kitchen sink here.

I dont get the Sean fans he is one of goofiest characters in the series. A bazillion character that plays basketball. Da fuck I thought football is the most popular sport in Brazil. His move set is just a crap mish mash of random stolen moves. Dan kick move, a poor man's Shoryuken, and the wheel kick and running grab that just seem so out of place with the other moves. His design is lame, same as Ryu ans Ken but let's make him yellow cause you know he is from Brazil, how uninspired. I hope Capcom don't consider this abomination of a character as any of the character DLC. He should be thrown under the same bus as Twelve, Juni, Juli, Ingrid, Remy and Necro.

I get Ingrid, but leave Remy and Necro alone. We need more otter mode sonic booms and Necro has a pretty cool play style (he's cooler than Blanka too). V-Trigger also opens up new possibilities for both. Remy's V-Trigger could make him shoot double sonic booms that change directions for a limited time and Necro could use his V-Trigger to add stun properties to his blockstrings using electric attacks. They could add a lot more to the game if given a chance.

He's Brazillian but lives in America at least in New Generation, which is why his stage is New York. This is why he likes Basketball as football is not as popular here. Being the apprentice of Ken and not being old enough to have matured his moves is why they are all "weak" which is a great reason for it.

Also anybody hoping for new characters that aren't already announced have over a year wait time.

Your point is?

If I have to spell it out to you, it's funny because the one person who defends Sean has an actual Sean avatar.

It's funny because you took a very personal offense to what he said about the character and I imagine you have Sean screensavers and posters all over your walls and your car is yellow with brown interior.

I like Sean. I like other characters. Big deal.
 
Since those colors aren't obtainable in any way right now in the western versions of SFV, i'd expect them to let you earn them through zenny or just straight cash. That's easy money for Capcom.

I raised multiple points in multiple posts that you either won't address or don't seem to understand. I'm done.

You've raised multiple points with a severely aggressive tone while haphazardly not understanding my original point, while only targeting me despite multiple people chiming in, as you be dismissive of my (and others') concerns as you insult me and miss entire points. We've been dismissive of *each other*. Don't act like that farce of an argument represented an even handed discussion at ALL.

It will work fine, and thats it?

Remember there was

Ryu
Ken
Evil ryu
Sakura
Dan
Akuma
Oni
Gouken

in 4

3 boom users is beyond fine
Click to expand...

4's shoto users are the worst.

I'm just saying how would he work? Guile has charge and Nash has directional inputs. How would Remy work as a boom user?

A mish mash of Guile charge like in III, but with Nash esque rush down?

Remy could potentially be a great hybrid character.
 
This interview is a bit old, but it gives you an idea of how much you'll have to do in order to earn enough to buy one character

One of the most important core values is that all post-launch gameplay content is going to be earnable with fight money or delivered to the player for free.

Players are going to be able to earn fight money through playing single-player content that’s available. If you complete any of the character stories, you’ll earn fight money. If you complete survival mode with different characters, you’ll earn fight money. If you level up individual characters, every time you reach a new level, you’ll get some fight money.

On top of that, if you just play online in a ranked battle, every time you get a win, you’ll be able to generate some fight money. If you play through all of the single-player content, or just a majority of it, you should be able to earn enough money to get the first DLC character for free, if not more money on top of that.

Our in-game story will launch in March. This gives our players about a month’s time frame to play through the single-player content and earn enough fight money before content becomes available.

Street Fighter V does not have any day-one DLC. No content is going to be available on day one, with fight money or zenny [Street Fighter V’s in-game currency]. Once the store opens, content will be added, and we’ll also be adding our daily challenges. [Those are] specific goals that players need to accomplish on a daily or weekly basis, which will also give them a boost of fight money. That’s coming with the in-game store because this is a model that’s there to provide long-term sustainability and a way to earn fight money in the long term.

If we do end up getting Remy in SFV, I would hope to get this outfit:

Bengus is definitely not incapable of drawing darker skinned characters.

I hope it is just a bad camera shot, as well as just a shitty art piece. Not a fan of ginger Sean.

There are a lot of people who like Sean. The arguments against the character on the previous 2 pages were all kinds of stupid: all his moves are copies (meaning two), and he has 2 moves that are randomly thrown in there (meaning 2 unique moves, thereby invalidating the first declaration, also suggesting that any moves that aren't familiar are bad). When you look at SF, you have stuff like Ryu, Ken, Akuma, Evil Ryu, Dan, these guys share the same special move set. Anybody who tried to play Sean like a shoto because he has a gi and an uppercut would get their ass handed to them.

The "goofy" argument is also dumb, since he's not a retread joke character like Dan and this isn't Serious Fighter (see: Mika).

Remy seems pointless in a game with both Nash and Guile. How would that even work?
Click to expand...

Nash and Guile play nothing alike now, so the question is: what would differentiate him from Guile? The answer is that his booms have high/low variations, he has the dive kick for pressure and he's a juggle artist. Guile is historically as basic as it gets. Remy is about mixups, spacing and juggles. I do think he or some variation of him will be in SFV when all is said and done. He would actually fit very well with the return to emphasizing fundamentals.

I agree but I think the target audience for those videos are probably for the fledging street fighter player. Still doesn't excuse the editing and footage.

I'll be the first to jump on white-washing, but in this case, I don't think it's true.

Many of Bengus' story mode drawings have washed out color palettes.

I mean look at Laura, her face is dark, but her arm is bright. There's a random light source on her arm, and everything around it is lit up (including Sean's face).
She has a blue light source on her stomach. I'm not sure you can call this white washing...more like blue-washing.

Is that's Sean's mouth in the center of his face as a like black hole? Man, some of the art is so damn bad for story mode. I agree with others that Bengus was likely rushed but that doesn't make the final product in many circumstances not poor.

Sort of chiming into the conversation, I'd rather assume the lighting or art is screwed up before fearing they actually white-washed Sean. Though, at the end of he day, this art still isn't a great look.
 
I'm super for proper race representation in any medium but this controversy feels so forced when everything in that part of that picture is stylized a bluish purple and there's even a clear, visible bluish purple light source or reflection to boot. Even weirder seeing people point out colour differences everywhere and not considering that it's a (pretty damn obvious) stylistic choice using non-skintones to make the picture pop.

And that's totally not out of place tonally either; the purple-y art seems way closer to her in-game model's skin tone than the saturated image of Laura alone.

IDK what happened to Sean, but he looks like a completely different character.
 
Can't wait for the Guile v Nash Civil War. Guile hopefully is a defensive force packing power like Ryu while Nash is just stylish and mobile but weaker like he's always been.

I do hope 3s characters get a second chance in the franchise and I do hope capcom can get the rights for the ex series characters.
Click to expand...

Well, the first year of DLC contains three characters from that series (Ibuki, Urien, and Alex), so Capcom does seem quite aware that people want to see those characters get another shot. I'd love to see a guest character pack that features characters from other Capcom franchises. Like Rival Schools, Final Fight and so on.
