it's just tough to have female faces that both look attractive and distinctive, or atleast that's my experience from 2D art. Japan just takes a generic face and tries to distinguish it with hair/eye/skin color or moles or whatever instead of actually trying to differentiate with facial features. They tried to make Kim Wu look Asian with Asian facial features, which is commendable but not really effective.

Actual real life beautiful women look way worse when face-scanned into games too (Miranda from ME2, Quiet from MGSV, etc)

 

[Dahbomb]

Quiet looks fine face wise although her real life acress looks better.

 

[enzo_gt]

Miranda could have looked alright if they didn't make her look sickly skin-tone wise and hair looked more natural.

 

[BadWolf]

Quiet looked great.

 

[sf2fanatic]

Is King of NY on?

 

[The Light]

I first thought Quiet face looked fine, but then I saw her actress. Either something went wrong or Kojima didn't want Quiet looking exactly like her model.
Edit:
If i get an xbox live trial will I be able to download KI season 1?

Who was he using? I watched a couple of jpn streams yesterday. Here's what I found:

-Nuki is aiming for Capcom Cup. He is obviously using Chun.
-Amiyu was using Zangief
-Ebi was using Mika and Zangief.
-Haneyama was using Necalli
-Bonchan was using Ken.
-Galtu was using bison

you cant play games with gold titles while not subscribed so idk if it would matter

 

[sf2fanatic]

That's a nice location for K of NY. SF and have a drink also.

 

[call_kotaku]

Miranda could have looked alright if they didn't make her look sickly skin-tone wise and hair looked more natural.

I feel like she would've looked slightly bloated and somewhat derpy no matter what they did with her hair or skin, same with Stefanie Joosten in MGSV. I don't think it's even about uncanny valley, it's just that we all expect videogame women to look like anime dolls so features that might be distinguishing on a real woman (Miranda's wider nose, Quiet's small chin) look really exaggerated or ugly on a game character. They should've gone the anime/DOA route and showed that she's Chinese because she wears a Chinese dress, not because her face looks different.

Also, those sort of anime proportions look upsetting in real life, like those anime doll masks or that Russian girl who made her face look like barbie

 

[Perro]

The only game that made me said "wow the girls actually look like real people" was Arkham Knight and L4D, most females characters have the anime dolls look. I don't play a lot of games so whatevever.

 

[Dahbomb]

Witcher 3 has some nice looking ladies.

 

[ShinMaruku]

but it's only been SE for like five years

An eternity in these spheres

Witcher 3 has some nice looking ladies.

Proland. Cdpr is unique. That said no booty.

 

[JeTmAn81]

Most of the performance captured ladies in games I've seen look good to me. Miranda, Quiet, Madison Paige in Heavy Rain.

 

[Numb]

There's blood in KI now or was it always there?
Never noticed

 

[shaowebb]

Spoiler

hometown for life

Someone actually dug till they found a shot made entirely out of tits and ass?
EDIT: In hindsight given cast are fighting in thongs grooved in so deep that it would take a miner, some chains, and a winch to pry it from the crevices of their bottoms its not surprisingly hard to find shots like this.

He was using Necalli. Didn't have time to see much but he casually steamrolled a couple players and lost a game.

 

[ShadowSoldier89]

I generally like the doll look, but Id say a few developers are figuring out good looking realistic females

are probably the best examples but resident 6 did pretty well as well

bioware still sucks, as does bethesda

Always been there.

What the hell does Sim say in his vitrigger?
"Victory/myster of yoga"?

Not all of them spill it i'm guessing
The humans do mostly

Well, considering that he could stretch any part of his body...

I believe everyone but Aria does." Some characters have different colored stuff though. Fulgores is dark like oil, and I think Omen actually "bleeds" lightning.

 

[TheChits]

Chin's Cody is still dope as hell

See it's perfect.

indeed
Omen sounds dope

 

[Phantasmal Repose]

Arbiter is going to be in KI. That's pretty dope.

uggh, fuck guest characters

 

[Tripon]

You know who should be in KI? Avatars, so I can finally bear them up.

 

[shaowebb]

Ya know, folks that have had sports injuries that stretched muscles or joints often feel like their limbs may pop out of socket. Imagine Dhalsim at his age getting out of bed on a cold morning...

^ plus the sound of like 3 stalks of wet celery getting cracked followed by the sound of a watermelon having its insides fisted repeatedly.

Gettin' old as a yoga bungee cord has its drawbacks.

 

[sf2fanatic]

Art's being aggressive with his Sim in V. Nice win streak

Almost.

There's a tree in Tobal 2

 

[.la1n]

Almost.

There's a tree in Tobal 2

I remember looking at Tobal 2 a lot before it was released because I loved the first game, was really disappointed when it didn't come to the states. I had no idea there was a tree in it, lmao.

 

[Mizerman]

If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?

If yes? Then kick its ass.

 

[Shackzam]

I asked this in the beta thread, but does anyone have a link to the list of buffs and nerfs on srk supposedly from the final game of sf5?

 

[Rhapsody]

Well that was fun. Only lost once in the beta because the connection was super awful. But when it's good, it's really good.
I'm playing on a Wii U controller for this though lol

Anyone have issues with steam where the program just randomly closes after awhile in though? It doesn't give me an error message. It just exits out right away.

Edit: It's not all of Steam closing for me, just the game itself.

This happened to me too. Go to Task Manager and go to "Details" and close TabTip.exe.

 

[Beckx]

There's like over a hundred characters in it, from the OP to the absolutely useless like some old man with no arms, lol. You normally had to unlock them by catching them in the dungeon mode, but there was a cheat device code to unlock them all.

I remember that I got this guy at the local game store to use their device to unlock them all for me, and when he gave me back the memory card he had changed the colors of one of the female characters to make her look naked. Today I imagine he's out there modding DOA.

 

[Rhapsody]

Thanks. I haven't checked if it's all fixed now, but I'm glad to get a response. Wouldn't want to get the full version if this kept happening to me.
