I gotta say, I love your Office gif usage. Always brings a smile to my face.

Hahaha thanks.
Also, I found the perfect Rainbow Mika gif in the form of Kelly.
Definitely save that for when someone posts some Mika Tech or Option Selects.

Lmao they really need to start updating those stats to actually reflect what they look like.

It's cool world-building but some of that stuff could've been in SFV at launch as a mode to examine and look at. It's a mix of "too little too late" and "better late than never" for me. Mildly annoying and kinda cool at the same time. I would be saying the exact same for any other developer too. "Meet Mario's sister on Nintendo.com!"

"Meet Hot Goombas near you! They just want a good time!"
This is not a good direction to take this thread, I'm sorry.
Though an in-game model viewer for the characters would be dope.
I miss Elena. It's like stockholm syndrome

In-game color preview would be dope too
A slight Elena redesign. Nice.

I wanted to give the series one final chance since the gunplay was seemingly a big step up from before, but it made clear to me that these heavily-scripted Bayhem action romps aren't for me anymore. Uncharted 4 is disappointing in how mechanically uninspired it is even by Uncharted standards, excellent presentation notwithstanding. DOOM's single player on the other hand is the exact opposite: minimal plot exposition in favor of outstanding level / encounter design - one chapter I played earlier had more firefights and actual platforming than the entirety of U4's campaign - and a satisfying gameplay loop that gets further fleshed out the more you explore these thoroughly layered areas. Even the melee has a proper purpose, rather than strictly being for show. I'm shocked how well realized it is after how Bethesda's marketing consistently put it in a negative light.
Well optimized console port too apparently; runs at 1080p / 60 fps without being far behind the PC version's max settings either.
Eh, F.A.N.G has a wee bit more legroom than Dhalsim does to escape corner pressure with that EX command dash of his and less hang time on his jumps. Dhalsim has longer keep-away moves, but once he gets caught by Mika in that position he has an exceedingly rough time escaping.
This. Max's channel = "how to sensationalize 101."

That reduced hang time also means that it's easier to AA and after a match or two, a good mika will realize that fang only has 2 reliable ways out of the corner. V-Reversal and EX Dash.
EX Dash is immune to normals but not to throws or command grabs.
V-Reversal can be easily baited with her jabs and then thrown out of. There's literally no reason not to go for a throw every time on FANG's wakeup.
If he jumps, you can anti air in time.
If he backdashes, he's still in the corner.
He can't V-Reversal since blocking's not in the cards.
His EX dash gets stuffed and he loses a bar of meter.
He might tech the throw but so what. He'll still probably just dash after wards or jump to get out.
Dhalsim's jump at least can give him some good escape opportunities with the hanging Vskill mixed with the teleport and air drill.
Dhalsim's teleport is a semi-reliable way to avoid wakeup pressure.
Not saying Dhalsim has a fun time of it in the corner vs Mika but FANG has just a bad time if not more so.

Once they finish all of these character profiles they should glamour them up a bit, compile them, and throw them into a mode similar to Xrd's or BB' library modes. It'd be a cheap, easy way to get more content into the game, and anything that adds to the currently non-existent story or world building would be a plus.

I'm aware of those pros and cons. When talking about being in the corner though, which was my original argument, they're better tools than what Dhalsim has.
- EX command dash, while costing meter, is better than any escape tool (of which there are only a scant few) Dhalsim possesses in this specific context.
- Dhalsim's teleport being strike invincible as well means nothing in this situation given the massive recovery frames and you still being right next to her afterwards on either side.
- F.A.N.G's jump is better than his for avoiding and subsequently punishing grabs. Faster backdash too, on that note.
- Using a Yoga Drill / V-Skill at the peak of Dhalsim's jumping arc is also usually not a valid answer with how much time there is for the enemy to respond.
- V-Reversal remark is moot with the universal throw weakness and Dhalsim's is also relatively easily baited given the slow-ish animation. The knockback is good if it does land, but risky nonetheless.
- Larger variety of close-range normals too with better reach at that distance.
Both characters have a horrible time in the corner indeed, but F.A.N.G realistically has the edge over him if only marginally so.

More like "FANG is shitty" talk.
I have a similar dilemma but I'm gonna be doing zilch from tomorrow till the end of May when the summer semester starts so it's just 12 straight days of Overwatch and The Witcher. I'll get back to SFV once the story mode drops.
I was talking about being in the corner as well, but I see your point.

Ken's wife, Eliza Masters, is Guile's wife's sister.
So Ken is married to Guile's sister-in-law.
Which makes Ken his Brother-in-Law.
Why do I know this.

Sakura wants to be Ryu's successor.

Whoa!

Their parents must be extremely proud.
I know this because I read the comics. There was a scene when they're all at a restaurant or something and Eliza is comforting Guile's wife since he's never home to be a family man.
They're adding profiles for every character in Street Fighter history, so no, they're not much of a hint. Anyone is fair game for season two.
I mean, who knows why. It is cool to see. The artist is clearly better than SFV Bengus, so it's a headscratcher that they wouldn't put this stuff in game, as unlockables if nothing else. Then again this is Capcom. Maybe for season 2,
but I highly doubt it and advise against expecting anything.

any tips on what i should be doing in a guile/claw matchup (i play guile)?
seems like he gets over projectiles pretty easy. i've tried pressuring too but my normals seem to get beat a lot. i rarely run into claw online.

I think Sean was supposed to be american but they changed to brazilian when they included Ryu and Ken in the game.
I made an argument about it here:

i think my guile is 33 now, nash 34 and cammy 28. i just can't focus in this game.
Ryu is the second character categorized internally in SFIII (after Alex), so the theory that Sean was supposed to be the only shoto is false.

On the flip side, it's gotta nice to have a wide repertoire of characters though. I'm lost anytime I chose someone other than Laura.

probably slipping into June, tbh
OMG OMG OMG!
I can do standing SPD's without buffering it behind an attack, OMG OMG OMG!
I think I'm going to go play some old Street fighters and wreck AI's with Zangief in how he's meant to be played.
Anyone got any tips on Chun's instant air legs or Cammy's air spiral arrow? Or is it tough shit get gud and input it faster?

The EX one isn't that rough, you just gotta delay pushing the kick buttons for a split second but I could never do the regular instant air regular spiral arrow consistently

The writing for Street Fighter is so good. It deserves awards. Cammy likes cats? 10/10 best detail.
....
Sorry. It's just really jarring sometimes to go from games with awesome writing then play SFV. Kinda hard to keep playing when you only really care for 1-2 characters. At least SFIV tried and I liked way more characters because of it.

yea, but sometimes i mix up inputs. esp. nash and guile. the looks and history doesn't help. still, that's what i expect when i made my choice.
How many times has this been said since the game launched? That the character is slipping to the next month? Doubt that's happening.
Can Capcom, like put this in the game? I feel like 95% of the people who will eventually pick up SFV will totally miss out on these character and lore infos.

Lord no. The prologues were fine, but the endings were terrible jokes, spoofs, what ifs that make no sense, and then a bunch of people fighting a red robin of Seths while people meet up and say I'LL FIGHT YOU LATER LOL.
We'll see what happens with SFV, but the fact that they are trying to tie everyone together is a better effort than "lol we met at a seth".
CAPCOM
A GALLERY WOULD BE NICE
PLEASE
