Isn't this normal? KOF has a very international fanbase.
Even for the other KoF trailers I noticed WAY more non-english comments.

Yup, total Ma~ Banderas!
Admit it, you're just trying to escape the *positive feels* coming from the graphic convo thread...

More like he is Mai's Shingo.
Man I miss Shingo.
Man I miss Shingo.
I posted it up, knowing full well the results were going to be PREDICTABO. I would have actually been surprised if general opinion had done that much of a 180 #OnHere, but I was willing to just perform an experiment and see where we were, some 6-7 months after the TGS unveil.
Plus, admittedly, I was bored at work and needed the entertainment.
It's the same on the Facebook page too. According to peeps over at SRK, a lot of Brazilians like Banderas, but there are still some who were hoping him to be a bit more of a "serious" character.
Frankly, I'm loving that the guy is a bit of a black weeaboo goofball, who also happens to be citing heavily from the books of Bang and Hanzo/Galford. I think that's whole new trope for gaming in general, if not certainly just among fighting games.
Also, am I the only one who always felt Mary was sorta latin? I know she's not Maria Azul but she looked like a south american blond to me... maybe it's the fighting style.
lol, man. You like Sean AND Shingo?Me too.
Man the graphics thread had everything. From "LOL PS2 GWAFICKS!" To "Show me a ps2 that looks like that" to classic Sab-ca essay posts.

Village said:Homie i mean why even attempt the experiment when tekken 7 exists.
Fersis pls
Let me suggest the subtitle for the ot
I find that tekken has way more personality than soul calibur, tekken is a weird mish mash of anime and trying to constrain it with realism that turns out fantastic. Tekken was my first fighting game actually and like you am waiting for 7.
I want kof to be the best it can be, but I see it and then i'm like " Oh man its really coming along" and then I look up T7 and it looks like this
I'm not saying every fighting game has to look like t7 I don't want it to, I like how guilty hear looks, and persona and street fighter when they aren't stabbing people in the face. But I feel like this game now is what sf4 was at like years ago and and want to give it slack. But its 2016 and inexperience or no, the you get compared to your peers. And your peers look like this.. There is a conversation to be had.
That said one think I think kof14 has down is redesigns, I think they are much better than sf's attempt to be honest either very minor or non existant in many cases with sf. With for me ken ( besides his face) , now guile, and Karin being outliers. I think tekken's redesigns are pretty good as well.
Effect showcase day!
Effect showcase day!
What is even the point in bringing up T7? It's like looking at a Tales or Persona game and wondering why they don't look like Final Fantasy XV.
Not to mention T7 launched with around 20 characters despite reusing over 90% of old character animation and designs. Sure Retribution is looking nice but it's an update that is releasing almost 1.5 years after the original T7's release.
KOFXIV's total development time, where they are creating everything from scratch, will be around 2.5 years or less upon release.
That effect looks like Guile's Somersault Kick.
Hangetsuzan > Somersault Kick. Everyday.
In order, they are in the same genre and will be compared. One, looks like a early 360 game and the other litterally is on the cutting edge of its genre. And I find it exceedingly hard to humor kof's visuals when in looks like that in comparison to its peers. Because it isnt art style problem. Notice how no is talking shit about guilty gear, its technique and its kinda failing right now. And I dont think its intellectually honest to pretend like they cant be compared when you got folks like again guilty gear getting pulled into 3d breaking grounds in its art style. Kof does not and has never exist in a vaccume. Its very existance is outside of vaccume given how much its existance relied on another fighting game. As well as the fact kof just one game ago had the best 2d sprites in the game so not only is it is comparedto its peers its compared to itself. And you doing kof no favors trying to coddle it, it looks like shit when directly placed next to its contempararies and thats bad.
To your resused asset point, guilty gear..
One thing I like about the 3D models is the dynamic camera before the supers. They look way cooler than before.
Wait fersis aint doin his dream ot?
Ah well ill help sab ca write it and ill do the subtitle
I demand u resign ur avatar and never gush over snk ever agaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaainIm washed up
You mean to tell me that SNK made a beautiful 2D fighter in KOFXII/KOFXIII after spending decades making 2D games? I am shock.
The traditional game team was completely disbanded after KOFXIII. They had to build the team from scratch and the tools to make games in 3D.
Shit and i'm critiquing them.The visuals are what they are.
Lost:
- Beautiful 2D art
Gained:
- 50 characters (all made from scratch, 31 returning and 19 new)
- Far normals
- More special moves and supers. Rush combos also use unique normals instead of recycling other normals.
- A ton of design refreshes
- Return of special character specific intros
How big was the roster when Xrd launched?
Revelator is coming out 2 years after the original's release and the roster is still less than half of XIV's.
SNK clearly has different priorities.
Well there isn't much sense in emphasizing the game's weak points like that. What I like about them is that they managed to keep them fast, but I didn't expect them to go for that at all in the first place.
So there you go , an example of a 2.5d fighter with a roster of damn near 50, pumping out characters super fast with mostly new models, along with having to completly rethink gameplay elements and creating all new gameplay elements for each characters, because characters need to feel like they came from multiple video games and mediums.That looks great with an amazing art style With all the features you listed and more.
I never liked it when someone does a super and the background changes to a generic animation or the character's portrait appears in the background.
That's just me though.
Truer words have never been spokenGuys can we instead just be hype that Chang and Choi are back and that KING OF DINOSAURS is very likely to be the best new character of 2016?
And that game looks fantastic, and it isn't just because the models look better, it has style the characters have a style. One of the reasons kof14 looks so damn bad, is because the models look plane, they have very little if any style, what is the art style in KOF14? Generic anime esque 3d model, the old kof sprites were based on artists art and you could tell who was doing what. Hell street fighter 4 was based on an artists artstyle and you can clearly tell who did that. The same guy who did the art for DMC3. But not only is kof's visual just incomptent, it lacks style. And that's the biggest offender, you can kind of get away with looking shabby if you have a style, and kof lacks that and that's what is making it look worse than it already is.
King of Dinosaurs/Maxima/Banderas/Love Heart means we're getting dinosaurs, robots, ninjas and pirates, when's zombie

Last Blade 2 PS4/Vita on May 24: https://t.co/P32s8x8RyE
I maintain they revived this because it's next on SNK's list for a new installment
NoSNK is starting from zero and the results are what they are, you can either accept that or move on.
Hello, PlayStation Nation! Leading up to the return of one of our most legendary late-90s Neo Geo fighting games, today were pleased to announce that The Last Blade 2 will be coming to PS4 and PS Vita on May 24 with cross buy support!
Buying the heck out of that. But wait, no filters? The game looks great w/ filters.
