SFV - Kage Reveal Trailer
- Thread starter J 0 E
- Start date
I really liked the game despite the negative consensus. If only more people actually played the game so I can take it seriously and get good.
Because the devs probably weren't thinking about things in that way tbh
It seems like they wanted to earnestly do the "Ryu overcomes the Satsui no Hado" plot point... and then they later realized that "oh shit this means we can't market / sell Evil Ryu anymore" so they've kinda backtracked a little, hence why we've got Kage.
If they were originally planning for Kage in the SFV Story Mode, I agree that it would have been super easy to write it in. But they didn't, which is what makes me think they didn't plan this out / they're changing their mind.
Not that I mind this whole Ryu / Kage concept. Bison / Rose kinda already set the precedent for weird soul splitting shenanigans in Street Fighter. The only issue I take with Kage is that low effort design (and only the design. Kage animates pretty well, I just can't take those shitty devil horns and teeth seriously)
They're wildly different stylistically, but I think he looks better in SFV personally.Tekken graphics shits on SFV graphics so hard it's not even funny. AND they are running on the same engine.
I mean, I can cherrypick too but I'm not gonna stoop so low.They're wildly different stylistically, but I think he looks better in SFV personally.
Not that I was ever a fan of Evil Ryu to begin with, but the horns and fangs look really dorky.
You kinda did by using one of the worst shots of SFV Akuma. I mean, he's an ugly dude, but you're also free to play him looking like he traditionally has, which has him in a pretty similar representation but with the stylistic touches of each games. The original comparison only comes off as not like Akuma's redesign.
OK. I will go on google, search "SFV Akuma" and literally get the first result.
Seems pretty accurate to me.
Difference being it's no longer focusing on his puffed up beesting allergy face. I don't really know what you're trying to prove here because it seems more like you're angling this towards haha look at how dumb Akuma looks, and he does, he's some weird lion neckbeard hobo man, but that's his redesign you're criticizing, not graphics. I mean just look at the gi, it looks made of actual material, it has depth to it. In Tekken it's completely flat, like he's fashioned it from tissue paper.OK. I will go on google, search "SFV Akuma" and literally get the first result.
Seems pretty accurate to me.
At this point I'm hoping he never comes and just makes it into the base roster of SF VI, along with Dudley.
Evil Ryu is a lame concept but SF4 made him really fun to play, and seems Kage is going the same path.
I wonder what they're doing with S4 differently tho. Also another year, another patch Juri gets jack shit and keeps on being garbage. At least they buffed the shit out of Sakura.

Not just that. The image quality, details, backgrounds are so much better.
I'm not going "haha" and making fun of SFV. I genuinely want Capcom to make a good not dumbed down fighting game. I am a hardcore fighting game player and fan. However, Capcom are currently so behind the competition and I want to reflect that, because there's a lot of weird revisionism going on.
I'm gonna have to agree to disagree there, as Tekken muddies up the IQ with film grain, CA and being sub-native res on consoles, and details are exactly why I find -- at least in this direct comparison -- Akuma presenting better in SF as I brought up in that post. The backgrounds I don't have any strong opinions on either way, but from the start the comparison was presented on character visuals. IMO they're in a graphical ballpark within one another, but they're stylistically doing way different things.
So is there a chance Kage will be part of a Season 4 pass later (if there will be one) or is it safe to buy him now?
The lack of communication from Capcom here is really frustrating. They're currently destroying all goodwill they earned for Season 3 with this and the whole ad debacle and less payout from Shadaloo soldiers.

I think this speaks for itself.
and becuz why not
I think it's safe to say there won't be a character pass this season or if there is Kage won't be part of it. No company releases a character pass after a character is released they always promote a character pass preorder and make the first character part of it.
It's obvious Capcom are winding down their Street Fighter DLC content. I reckon we will probably get 3 characters this season and will just be released individually instead of part of a pass.
We've come a long way, fam. Ryu's internal struggle with the Satsui no Hadou over the years that looks to have culminated with the energy removing itself from Ryu altogether. Pretty dope.
What is interesting is that this kind of thing games series like Tekken do all the time. Horns and wings. Evil twisted versions of characters. But it seems to initially always get push back here. I think people tend to forget what kind of series this is. Or rather that there are people who enjoy "Evil Ryu", especially these later series versions which have become their own character entirely.
No one seems to be upset with Jin, Devil Jin, Kazuya, Devil Kazuya etc.
SF V really shines at high resolutions, too bad it's so demanding and doesn't seem to scale so well. Anything can run it perfectly fine at 1080p, start increasing the resolution and suddenly every PC is garbage.
I think this speaks for itself.
and becuz why not
I can cherrypick too, but I'm not willing to stoop so low.
Overall, Tekken graphics are way better, technically and stylistically.
Way more work was put here than older "evil" characters and it looks fine - it's not 100% new but it's bound to happen to every fighting game.
Two things that I didn't like were the right teeth and left teeth, lol. Reminds of
It was kinda funny there, it's kinda funny here.

I like the character a lot, but I'm not interpreting this as a negative thing at all. I have a feeling instead of dropping a "clone" in the season pass, they have decided to release him on his own to AVOID backlash. I think he looks fun to play so there's no real complaints from me.
I don't have any strong feelings about this character, but I would figure that if Capcom intended him to be seen in that way they would actually say that. You don't tend to leave that kind of thing to be interpreted one way or another by your audience.
I think people just need to wait and see what is announced for 2019 before getting themselves in a state.
That's the bulk of what they've said, so there's a new season but there isn't a new pass at the moment and they're "doing things differently". You might be able to make some optimistic or pessimistic inferences from that but until they say exactly what they're doing I'd honestly recommend that people just wait and judge them on what they've put out so far.
Season 2
S2 pretty much plugged up the glaring omissions in the roster and the guest characters have been far more interesting than the newcomers in SFV sans G and Kolin.
The saddest part IMO is that S3 characters were so interesting compared to this whack shit.

4K is a huge ask unless you have a monster card (even then I'm not sure), but 1440p is manageable for most affordable cards, especially if you disable motion blur.
But yes, running on or downsampling from higher resolutions does wonders for fighting games since the characters are relatively far away from the "camera."
In SFV's case the post-AA it uses works A LOT better this way... :P
Ah yes, the cherrypicking of two super high resolution photomode pictures from the respective PC versions of each game showing the character models in their entirety.
These comparison shots are 4K, right? I find that downsampling from 1440p doesn't make that much of a difference, but I'll give it a shot.4K is a huge ask unless you have a monster card (even then I'm not sure), but 1440p is manageable for most affordable cards, especially if you disable motion blur.

First of all, I thought you put me on ignore. What happened to that?

Second of all, why are you derailing the thread? This thread is about Kage, not how SFV compares to Tekken.
Third of all, Tekken overall looks better. Stop lying to yourself and to the people and stop bringing me ultra super high omega resolution pictures to make SFV look good. Most people don't play at those resolutions.
If this thread is about Kage, what are you bringing up Tekken for?
What the fuck is wrong with you?
No, seriously? What the fuck is wrong with you?
I said I took you off ignore, but didn't put you back on. You're actually too much fun. Especially when you say insane shit like this
You're the one that derailed the thread by first posting a comparison picture out of nowhere LOL.
Yeah 4K vs 1080p. Probably not that big a deal in motion and from a reasonable viewing distance.
Personal insults are not cool.
Look back and you will see "rude" was the one who brought up Tekken.
"What the fuck is wrong with you?" is not a personal insult, your posts are fucking weird. I won't even get started on "I'm a hardcore fighting game player" when all you're doing is talking about graphics for some reason.
>brought up Tekken
rude said no one wants a SF that looks like Tekken because REengine was brought up. The point is that realism isn't desired as an aesthetic choice, this isn't a difficult thing to figure out in context.
You then, unprompted, felt the overwhelming urge to derail the thread with some dumb comparison pictures because you had to prove that absolutely everything about SFV sucks because you have a giant chip on your shoulder.
Your posts are fucking weird.

This game needs a Pro patch!
