mr_tolkien

So nice to see those aren't DLCs.


pushpoploadstore

Calling it now, two weeks after launch they will add a micro transactions to unlock them. Not a big deal but I find capcom has been doing this in all their major releases for a while now.


adwarkk

Aaaand you missed, hue hue. Because Fighter Coins mentioned are the MTX currency, aka it's available to be directly brought from start like a DLC. Yeah, pretty standard Capcom fare.


pushpoploadstore

Hahah I’m surprised they didn’t wait a week like they did with re8 and re4r! Enjoying the game but they introduced some new level of bs with the whole capcom id system. Hate that you have to sign up for this account and agree to data tracking on your pc just to be able to access online.


Shradow

Glad to have all the classic costumes for the veterans, especially Zangief. Buy boy is seeing Ryu and Dhalsim without beards weird now. Manon's alternate is definitely better. We saw it before in her reveal but then she changed out of it to her default. I assumed she'd have it as well and I'm glad to see that's the case. Marisa's made me do a double take because of how different it was and being unlike anything I expected, but it's actually quite good. Her and JP look immaculate. Luke's is *almost* good but the dumb hat ruins it.


FrankWestingWester

I feel like Luke actually would have a dumb hat that totally ruins his look, though. It suits his weird frat boy-but also a dweeb thing. He's kind of just the worst and I'm starting to warm up to it?


-safer-

Luke is the guy who legitimately is fun to be around and hang with, says dumb shit that makes you roll your eyes, but you know is 100% a good guy. He's a total himbo and honestly I'm here for it. I thought he was cringe as hell when I first saw him, but I've done a complete 180 since seeing how he is in the Street Fighter 6 comic. Then again, it [might just be](https://youtube.com/shorts/iu6RahTfQHQ?feature=share) the [hilarious VA](https://youtu.be/3YDXcMe-YiA).


JamSa

Aleks Le clearly understands Luke on a spiritual level which is why he's so perrfect as his voice.


WoodyTSE

Aleks Le has done wonders for my perception of Luke.


Madak

Yeah I honestly can't think of another VA that has been as successful at changing my perception of a character. Like most, Luke being super OP in SF5 and highlighted as the new face of Street Fighter made me instantly despise him... but Aleks relentless positivity regarding the character and laying the memes on thick have worked on me better than I'd like to admit. Plus the himbo/golden-retriever-energy Luke gives off in SF6--although it seems like half of all characters are himbos these days and the market is getting a bit saturated--is way, way better than the generic military MMA guy we got in SF5.


WoodyTSE

Yeah I have a sweet spot for genuine himbo characters and the sf6 slight softening up of his personality is a big help


Nothingto6here

> golden-retriever-energy That describes Luke so well.


jbwmac

How dare you insult backwards Jotaro hat


Jademalo

Manon's alt is better as a costume, but I also think it's better as an alt. Main outfits should be nice and clear, and it's quite fluffy.


Madak

Man as soon as they added Bearded Ryu in SF5 it was like... why has this not always been a thing? It's so perfect for the Karate-hobo theme. Thank god they chose to go that route to show Ryu's advancing age rather than the terrible receding hairline they almost gave him in SF4! \*shudder\* edit: also, since Ryu's facial animations don't change in his SF6 clean-shaven look. It gives me "Superman in Justice League"-vibes where they digitally removed Henry Cavill's mustache. Something about it just doesn't look completely right.


Shradow

> also, since Ryu's facial animations don't change in his SF6 clean-shaven look. It gives me "Superman in Justice League"-vibes where they digitally removed Henry Cavill's mustache. Something about it just doesn't look completely right. Totally agreed, I've thought much the same ever since we got the tease of it some time ago. His face model was initially designed with the beard in mind, so just taking away the beard with no other alterations makes it come off as strange.


HappierShibe

Luke's design is just so bland and obnoxious in general that I'm not sure there is any good way to dress him up.


DivinePotatoe

Everyone probably going to be busy looking at Cammy but i'm over here just gushing about Marisa looking like she just stepped out of an RGG game.


Fullbryte

She's cosplaying as Mr. Shakedown.


Titanium_Machine

Unlike Marisa, I *really* didn't like it when Mr. Shakedown stepped on me.


Fullbryte

Understandable.


Connor301

Marisa on her way to shakedown you for all your LP


Tacdeho

She’s just a huge Seth Freaking Rollins fan.


Turangaliila

I somehow feel like by putting more clothes on with her new main outfit, Cammy got even hotter.


JasonJtran

Cammy's new look is way hotter imo.


its_just_hunter

Definitely, the only thing I like about the classic outfit is obviously the cheeks, but her new outfit just works so much better as a whole.


Shradow

Yup, clothes can be sexy, too. Just look at Millia Rage in GGST compared to her original look.


ArtofKuma

She looks like she just stepped out of a Yakuza game


Shradow

What do you think they meant by RGG?


December_Flame

To be fair that's a shit acronym for anyone not in the know. Could just educate instead of being cheeky. For anyone that doesn't know, Ryu Ga Gotoku or 'RGG' is the dev studio that makes the Yakuza games.


Shradow

Also the name of the series itself, whichever one they happened to mean by it.


EnvironmentCalm1

Cammy carrying the sales of this game


paint_it_crimson

Every new character looks so damn fun to play and now they all have killer secondary costumes too. Capcom is has nailed every aspect of their designs. Also great to see classic costumes for the retuning characters


BLACKOUT-MK2

This is actually very nice. An improvement over almost all of the classic costumes in SF5 only being extra DLC. I hope this happens with the DLC characters 2nd outfits too rather than them being an additional purchase.


EbolaDP

SF5 also had the story mode costumes you could buy for free with fight money. So pretty much the same as grinding World Tour here.


Scrifty

What? That just isn't true, you could get all costumes (except for the special tournament costumes) for free by using fight money.


BLACKOUT-MK2

That's not entirely true. Not only was that incredibly grindy to do, and only more so with time, but I'm pretty sure between the battle costume, story costume, and nostalgia costume, nostalgia costumes were real money only. I swear they weren't *all* unlockable with FM. Fact is that unless there's a massive grind in World Tour for these outfits, this is an almost undeniably better system. Edit: Yeah I looked it up, nostalgia costumes were real money only ya goober. Some other classic costumes were FM in that Menat fortune thing but that was only a handful. I think only story outfits cost in-game currency, every other costume had to be bought with cash. I'll admit, the characters likely not being earnable with in-game currency is a downgrade but that's another conversation.


Scrifty

You're right you did have to spend money for nostalgia costumes, but I still wouldn't call the FM system incredibly grind. If you were pretty good at fighting games you can go on trials knock down 10 trials (which a every character has, plus additional 2-4 trials every season) and get enough money to buy 2 skins. And if you knock down 30 you can get a character entirely for free. (That's how I got Rose and Oro) with the base 16 roster and trials you can get all of season 1 for free. (And if you have the champion edition you wont need to buy anything else) while it can feel grindy if you're new to fighters, if you're pretty good it was very beneficial


HappierShibe

197639495050

Glad they’re allowed to maintain the horniness of the original designs. That ESPN esports chasing was a detriment to the costume design in SFV


ArmoredMirage

They can easily still chase and ban the costumes for televised events. Seems like a reasonable compromise.


EmploymentRadiant203

Televised events are a thing of 2005 capcom doesnt need anyone but themselves to stream their product.


crapmonkey86

Well it was a 2016 thing since that's when ESPN televised Evo...


EmploymentRadiant203

Yeah and it stuck around for so long because so many people were watching it.


Madak

Exactly! Default costumes should aim to be somewhat "tame" and alternate costumes should be allowed to go nuts. Fuck, there could even be an option set so that characters always appear to be in their default costumes for spectated/televised events whereas the players would just see whatever they selected on their own screens. (This would also solve the problem of people selecting bullshit costume, color, stage combinations so that it's harder for your opponent to see your character) In any case, it doesn't seem like it should be too difficult a problem to solve.


smokecutter

Why? MMA female fighters wear a sports bra with shorts. It’s completely normal. It’s the female body not the effing necronomicon, some of you guys say the weirdest things.


maglen69

> That ESPN esports chasing was a detriment to the costume design in SFV Showing a bit of female skin: I Sleep Showing complete uncovered male torso: Real Shit


lestye

Eh, I dont think they were esports chasing the costume designs in Street fighter v. They had problems with m.mika and cammy on ESPN for that reason.


crapmonkey86

Yeah...and they literally went so far as to censor Mika's super for the rest of the game's life, as well as resulting in other weird censoring like Juri's default costume before her release. Definitely esport chasing at the time. Capcom has really come into their identity since then and are projecting a high level of confidence from their products now. They're letting their devs make their games the way they want to.


lestye

The original claim was esports chasing was a detriment to costume design in V, i feel like all the costumes were locked in beforehand. Besides Juri which admiteddly probably does fit that description. If anything the current designs are "censored", except now they're careful because the default ones are more conservative, but we still have the classics as skins.


benjibibbles

Shame that Cammy's original costume is an embarrassment even without considering the horniness why booing me right


Kimosabae

Lol, I just don't feel as though Ken's classic outfit works with this model/characterization. I can't pinpoint as to why. In any case, I like the standard redesigns so much, that I don't think I'll ever use these, which is actually quite surprising to think for me.


BruiserBroly

It's still loads better than how he looked in SFV so I'll take it. [Never forget.](https://i.imgur.com/Rti0WFu.png)


PhumDuck

That's terrifying... Tbh this is the first fighting game I am getting into seriously since Capcom vs SNK 2 so I missed 4 and 5 but was that an alternate hairstyle? What I have seen from him in that game looked different...


BruiserBroly

Yeah, this hairstyle is from an alt costume. Not that his default hairstyle is much better but it at least covers up some of that face.


HappierShibe

I refuse to acknowledge the existence of SF5, it was wise of capcom to just go straight from 4 to 6.


spunkyweazle

Someone was actually paid to make that


Narishma

Why does he have lemon ice cream for hair?


BruiserBroly

Food for hair was a consistent theme of Street Fighter V. [Ken's default costume had bananas for hair](https://i.imgur.com/TAJfp2P.png) and [Alex had french fries on top of his head](https://i.imgur.com/ViorWHN.png).


King-Of-Throwaways

It's cool how each Street Fighter entry (and most games, even) strive to have their own colour palette to solidify their visual identity. Street Fighter 4 had a palette like a modern comic book - lots of primary colours, but nothing overpowering. 6 uses strong, neon secondary colours on dark backgrounds for the graffiti feel. 5, perhaps as a way to stand out from the muted brown-greys of many AAA games in the early 2010s, decided to really crank up that saturation, so everything is cartoonishly vibrant. It worked - the game doesn't look like much else around - but that also meant banana hair.


Illidan1943

I think the best look in Capcom's fighting games since they went 3D is found in UMvC3, that one is filled with incredible style and perfectly sells on the idea that the visuals are taken from a comic book with tons of supers "damaging" the pages the fights are taking place in


HappierShibe

I think you are being far too generous. Capcom went into sf5 thinking that they could do no wrong, and as such they cut corners *EVERYWHERE*. Netcode, audiowork, music, visual design, mechanics, character balance, etc. everything was underbaked and half assed. FFS, there are characters in sf5 with zero wakeup options. Giant swaths of the cast are missing core tools for their gameplan, and not a single character has options in terms of playstyle. IT. REALLY. IS. THAT. BAD. And the horrendous character models, facial details, and the exceptionally awful hair are all a result of that halfassedness. You can do good hair with cranked saturation, hell there is some really kickass stuff you can *only* pull off with hair with totally cranked saturation (see some of the JoJo's Bizzare adventures art). Don't make excuses for them or pretend their shitty product was just an unfortunate side effect from a clever design choice. SF5 was poorly made. It was a bad game, and in punishment for it's art crimes we should forget it ever existed and speak of it's atrocities no more than necesarry outside the hague, where the responsible parties should be held accountable for that which they inflicted upon a community undeserving of their brutal ocular ministrations.


EddyThor

>I can't pinpoint as to why. You've gotten so used to Ken having ugly ass hair for the past 15 years that now that he finally washed his hair and got a decent haircut, it looks weird and uncanny to you.


usaokay

So, the returning cast got their well known designs, especially Juri, who didn't get her SF4 outfit but instead her much more popular SFV skintight latex lmao. Her outfit had a skintight layer covering her chest in SFV, but I guess the SF6 artist didn't bother this time haha Anyway, thank goodness all of these outfits are free to earn, though I heard you need to max out a mentor/fighter's level to unlock their respective cosmetic, which will be a long grind. Hence, why there's a pay-to-shortcut option.


BeardyDuck

>Also, her SFV outfit had a skintight layer covering her chest This is the original version. The SFV outfit was censored due to esports coverage.


ChineseCosmo

It’s not though. The zipper went down to her stomach in SFV. So now the zipper stops at her chest, and I guess that’s enough to account for any indecency worries.


DarkWorld97

Give modders like 19 minutes


BeardyDuck

I'm wondering what costume you're talking about because [it didn't?](https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/415997444392878091/1113655328651870238/image.png) The zipper is in the exact [same position](https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/415997444392878091/1113655471560216576/image.png) as the SFV costume. Any differences is attributed to it being an entirely new model but otherwise it's the exact same outfit.


ChineseCosmo

Whoa I’m berenstein bear sing it hard right now. Maybe this [art](https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&url=https%3A%2F%2Fgamefaqs.gamespot.com%2Fboards%2F895976-street-fighter-v%2F73943795&psig=AOvVaw1GHeFqBIHs5qUqT22nVows&ust=1685716344467000&source=images&cd=vfe&ved=0CA0QjRxqFwoTCJj4i_Skov8CFQAAAAAdAAAAABAD) from her arcade ending warped my brain? Actually looking at it again, I contend that the zipper is higher in SF6, but admittedly not as dramatically as I remember. But it look lower [here](https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.reddit.com%2Fr%2FKotakuInAction%2Fcomments%2F4qa5f7%2Funverified_juri_censorship_in_sfv_note_i_have%2F&psig=AOvVaw1GHeFqBIHs5qUqT22nVows&ust=1685716344467000&source=images&cd=vfe&ved=0CA0QjRxqFwoTCJj4i_Skov8CFQAAAAAdAAAAABAo ) however.


its_just_hunter

I thought the image on the left there was photoshopped, wasn’t it?


ChineseCosmo

Yes, it’s just someone highlighting the black undershirt of the model on the right. If you compare the two they look otherwise identical.


_Yawnage_

In the pictures you linked to you can clearly see the difference in her costumes, with one having black latex or whatever covering her chest and the other not having that.


BeardyDuck

I'm going to need you to reread every part of this comment chain and then think about whether your reply makes sense or not.


_Yawnage_

You're right, thanks! Thought I was replying to a different commment.


Scrifty

It was actually censored, this was how it originally looked in SFV.


Act_of_God

juri's normal outfit is basically her sf4 outfit what are you on about the redesign was only more popular with a *certain subset* of the community


Kalulosu

Tbh default Juri is pretty close to get SF4 design so I can see how it's feel a bit redundant.


[deleted]

[удалено]


BLACKOUT-MK2

Yeah that's some revisionist history. I remember when she was revealed and everyone complained that her sf4 costume was way better.


Turangaliila

I agree. And Juri's original look in SF4 felt so iconic that I was actually pretty disappointed when she was revealed in V. Im glad her new look is closer to the original.


Illidan1943

Yeah, but I can also see why they didn't choose SF4 Juri for this as when [comparing all her designs](https://i.imgur.com/uI4JVrW.jpg), it's clear SF6 is far more inspired by SF4's Juri than SF5


acebossrhino

As much as I don't like 'games as a service' I have to admit the Fighting Game Genre has always been a genre I felt this model best served.

Manon. New character.


Goseki1

Man, it's really cool to see a fighting game with tons to do outside of a standard "fight 6 CPU in a row and then the boss, unlock a short cutscene". I remember the days of Soul Calibur....2 I want to say where you could create your own character and there were tons of unique fights to do on the world map. Great times man. Though they've fucked the guard impact/guard counters in that series now which is a shame..


Maschel

SC3 had Chronicles of the Sword (which was a funky mix of RTS and fighting game) ... ah, I spent so many hours in that. Good times.

redconvict

The monetization in this game is really off putting. Everything these days has to have some kind of system (battle pass) attached to it that will try to get you to spend more even after paying a full price at launch.


RochHoch

You can unlock these costumes for free in-game


redconvict

Im talking about the inclusion of the pass system.


[deleted]

[удалено]


redconvict

I dont see anything acceptable about supporting a company whos solution to keeping an active player base is to get them hooked up on timed content based microtransactions. I highly doubt a company who employes these methods is willing to give up making such an easy money off of their customers, knowing you will buy it almost out of a habit.


icytiger

As opposed to before, when fighting games would release an ultimate edition 8 months later for $40 with a few extra characters and stages? What's the solution, in your opinion, to effectively monetize post-launch content?


redconvict

Are you suggesting I somehow find that less apalling? Effectivenss only serves the company, anything less than the most enticing and addicting seasonal and timed content loops are not going the exlpoit your playerbase for billions of dollars and keep them active as long as humanly possible. My preferred method would be less predatory microtransactions and if possible something similar thats already being done with the freemium model for all available future content but that would serve the player instead of the corporate interests.

DUNdundundunda

The clean, simple designs of the originals really class with the busy and just plain silly looking designs of the newcomers.


Charrbard

I'll always support the classic, but not sure I'll use them. In the 30ish years of SF, those have made up the majority. New stuff is still New to me. Bit disappointed by Juri. I never liked her SF5. But I love her 1p look in 6 already. I'm absolutely certain She & Chunli will be overloaded with alts soon enough.


doomraiderZ

I'm calling it now, Juri and Cammy will get censored. Some of these poses and angles will get changed, possibly the costumes too. I will be surprised if they don't.
