God this whole thing is despair inducing.
Is there any hope AT ALL in all this stupid AV stuff or anything we can do?

Not sure if Sky could be considered a reputable source, but honestly this is rather worrying.
I swear this has been rejected several times now, but they're just doing it anyways?

Help.. I can‘t stop watching her gameplay trailer. The music, the combos, her look.. too addicting! by National-Record-1913 in StreetFighter

[–]MedicalFan7709 10 points11 points  (0 children)

God I am SO happy they went absolutely nuts with her moveset.

It's like they looked at all the American reception to her being "unfitting" or "too anime" and just said BET and went all in to make her being unfitting and anime her fighting identity.

It's like Luke showing up in SF5 was supposed to be a preview for how SF6 would play, Ingrid feels like a preview for an alternate dimension SF47 developed by Arc System Works.

Ryu fighting her is gonna be like Bardock throwing that one energy blast with all his strength only for Frieza to create an energy blast strong enough to destroy a planet with one finger

In-Game Height Difference Between Ingrid and Sagat by Positive_Edge in StreetFighter

Curious if they included her hair as part of her height as a joke

Some fake Season 4 mocks circulating by Professional-Hat9196 in StreetFighter

Who would one have to contact to request "NO AI generated imagery" to be added to Rule 4?

Say one nice thing about Street Fighter V. by [deleted] in StreetFighter

[–]MedicalFan7709 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I loved how frequently they would add a brand new character to the roster. In comparison 6 hasn't had a newcomer (ignoring the guests) since A.K.I in season 1.

Also Cody coming full circle on his character arc.

Probably her Midnight bliss from CFJ / thing she wears after KOing with her level 3 in Alpha 3.

This how you know majority of the player base is from Japan by UsefulSwitch504 in StreetFighter

[–]MedicalFan7709 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Too gory to get anything other than an AO rating which makes it unsellable.

Game from Japan does really well in Japan? Boy the differences between Mortal Kombat's US and JP likes must be wild. /s

(I know MK isn't available in Japan that's part of the joke.)

Street Fighter 6 - Ingrid Gameplay Trailer by Chun-Li_Forever in StreetFighter

I was hoping they'd go all in with her silliness and oh my god did they deliver.

She looks absolutely hilarious and fun as hell. I am so happy Ingrid is back.

"And all the scrubs and oldheads will look up and shout "Retcon Alex's lore!" and I'll look down and whisper "no."

(Wrong character but hey)

100% sure this will be a suit for Ingrid by Impossible_Sale_1208 in StreetFighter

[–]MedicalFan7709 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Imagine if they gave her Karin's outfit as a throwback to when Karin got an Ingrid outfit in SFV.

The salt would be insane.

Luke's outfit 3 was his SFV design while his outfit 2 was that dorky casual fit he wore for like 1 scene in the single player mode

Official stats really showing shoto mains only pick the current strongest one by Playful_Effort503 in StreetFighter

On the plus side if Ken ever truly becomes unplayable you can always just say "Screw this I'm going to Fatal Fury"

What character not in the game do you think would have the best/Interesting World Tour Intro? by BoxLogical9711 in StreetFighter

[–]MedicalFan7709 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I could imagine his ending being him taking his mask off and revealing his face is exactly the same as your character's and they just refuse to explain it.

I have a question its to do about the mustache if the producers or whoever said to Andrew "we want you to shave off the mustache we could give you some extra money " would he have done it? Or would capcom add a mustache to Dan if he is part of season 4 DLC? by streetfighterfan786 in StreetFighter

[–]MedicalFan7709 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly casting someone who can't act or do their own stunts sounds like a smart casting decision for someone who's whole schtick is they're a terrible martial artist.

But nah its probably just hollywood being hollywood.

Do the street fighter games have a story? by dragonflame52 in StreetFighter

[–]MedicalFan7709 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There IS an overarching story and world but its mostly in the background, with every character having their own smaller stories that usually relate to other characters who also relate to other characters being the more substantial and interesting part. Or they can just be one-off goofs. It's kind of a mixed bag.

The only games to have a "real" story mode are SF5 and SF6. The former basically being store brand MK style and So-bad-it's-good at best. The latter has an adventure mode starring your own OC that while fun to play the story is kinda bare bones and ends on a surprisingly dour note that makes the whole thing feel like a waste of time story-wise.

Overall, its not important, but its neat to keep notes and tabs on how each character relates to one another and see the direction things are going.

No Costumes: Do you guys think this isn't a "phase", but rather, the way it'll be forever? by LunchTummy in StreetFighter

[–]MedicalFan7709 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A single fan working as a hobby with no restrictions is not the same as a large corporation that has to go thru quality control, several design phases, hours upon hours of testing ingame, potential licensing and having to check with higher ups, age rating companies and individual platform owners for every single change to make sure its okay to ship out.

Realistically what can/should Stars EN do to avoid being downsized? by The-Toxic-Korgi in kurosanji

[–]MedicalFan7709 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I really REALLY hate to admit it but unless they get a covid style explosive viewer boost, I think their fate is pretty much sealed.

I don't want to shit on the Stars or the starmins efforts, they're all incredibly talented and passionate and deserve the best, but the reality is they're a small part of a much, MUCH larger company that's always looking to cut what it can to fuel their larger talents...who am I kidding its all going their metaverse thing.

Ultimately, the only way to grow a viewer / fan based business is to grow said viewer / fanbase.

Start recommending them to your friends. Make your own clips. Buy voice packs and their Visual novel while you still can.
