Long as they gave him a good direction, I'm sure he'd have made a great job at making it feel Streets of Ragey. For example:
Essentially, Olivier Deriviere (Remember Me, A Plague Tale) will be doing all of the music for the levels while the boss music will be done by guest composers.
This is the one game in the universe where I should be expecting a lot of Koshiro :(
Personally, and nothing against Deriviere who I think is a great composer, Koshiro not being the main composer is more disappointing to me than not having Naganuma.
Right? This should have been his step back into the spotlight. Get this man playing a set at MAGFest

It's made by Atlus, though. Still much more money than what an indie game has.
Fair. But to be honest if it was me and I couldn't afford to get Yuzo Koshiro doing at least half the songs, I wouldn't even try to revive the series.
At this point I'm not even going to bother to get the game.
That's a shame, although it sounds like Naganuma has done 1 track for the game right?
I'm guessing it's because Koshiro would come through his company, Ancient and it might be more costly to pay a company over a name. Deriviere is a weird choice since his work is mainly classical right? When I think of Streets of Rage I think of House and Techno influences. Hidenori Shoji of SEGA (F-Zero GX/Yakuza series composer) would have been great for SoR4.
I remember being cynical at the time saying Koshiro will only do like 1 new track and remix the main theme but it's looking more and more like that is the case now sadly.

The music he shows is in here if people want to see it in motion. (it's hard to watch though, you want to play!)
Shiva is in! The music is hit or miss to me especially Shiva's....that is not fitting, where's max man?
I think he's for sure an unlockable character.
The gameplay looks great. All the characters look fun.
A scheduling complication??
Wait, what else has this man been working on? Call me ignorant, but I feel like he disappeared off the face of the earth after JSR and that one kickstarter game.
The more Hideki in the world the better.

I hope it is what you two are probably thinking it is
I dont understand why the font for the combo meter is so disgustingly ugly.
Just get rid of the combo meter, or change the font. Who cares how many hits you combo.
It looks like they are putting emphasis on combos. You got lots of bounces, co-op juggles, etc. Something for people to experiment with. I think it's a good addition. It is better than punch, punch, punch, grand upper, repeat or punch punch punch grab p,p,p throw, etc. You might be able to create some cool juggles especially on bosses since it looks like they aren't grabbable.
I'm all for expanding the gameplay like they're doing. It looks like a good progression from the old games. Hopefully they have running and rolling still.
the font is still fugly as all hell and distracting (yhe combo meter getting huge is another issue)
Gee Lois, It's like that time Hideki Nagunama remixed the theme song of our show.
