Some Interesting Designs from SoulCalibur VI Character Creation Feature

@phreak - that I understand. Rabid defenders are rarely better than those that hate on a game. If you like a game or series, it makes sense you want to discuss what it could have done better or where it might go in the future.

Think people have become to comfortable with giving simplistic aggressive responses, attaching a strong emotion to it as justification, then calling it a day.

I will never deny that the FF7 remake games have good graphics, runs well and a great combat system.
Those parts are really well done. It's other things I don't like

As I said, I hope everyone excited for it enjoys it.
Won't deny you that ever. Hope you love it.
I'm just tired of being insulted for not liking changes I feel are disrespectful to the original. Changes I won't talk about here due to spoilers.

@phreak @IcariX - Everyone is entitled to their opinions but personally I am excited for Revelations. I never played the OG FFVII until 2006ish.

Loved it, but the remakes are even better. The combat, graphics and party interactions are great.

Played Remake and while it does have its slow parts i.e walking simulator. It's still a great game. Played Rebirth last month only and it was even better, much more exploration, and yes while there is a ton of side content - most of it is optional.

It was a joy to see Zack again and play as him. and I think in the remakes Aerith's characterisation is miles better than Tifa.

I am hyped for Revelations and cant wait for more.

I am not a purist so do not care much with the story changes, by the end of the trilogy I doubt there will be any crazy differences to the actual ending of FFVII.

Resonance will be my GOTY though, I can see it already.

Elitism is fine except when people lose sense of the context in which games (or any other media) are made.

We're shifting into a bipolar market - maybe exacerbated by social media - where things are near perfect and therefore worth money/time, or people fixate on flaws without considering things like the developers cultural setting, size, budget, development time, and publisher influence.

Increasingly problematic when a few flaws lead to small teams (and sometimes bigger ones) collectively trashed for one or two elements with no regard given for everything else the games/series/movie does well.

Does not bode well as that ultimately means more safe bets and more homogenisation (especially in the console market where creative indie titles don't sell nearly as many copies as on PC).

I can't wait for Resonance. But the more I hear Square Enix talk about Revelations, the less I'm interested in playing it.

I've been called an elitist as well. But the whole Remake trilogy so far feels like poorly written fanfiction. I hope Square Enix stays far far far away from Final Fantasy VIII

If you're excited for FF7 revalations. I hope you love it.
But currently I'm not interested...

Excited for FF Resonance!
And I HATE that I have zero excitement for FF7 Revalations

Being called an "elitist" because I don't like the changes from the original isn't fair. I LOVE FF, it's my fav game series, but am I not allowed to voice my displeasure things in about it I don't like?

Some Interesting Designs from SoulCalibur VI Character Creation Feature

by Vincent Kühl on 23 October, 2018

SoulCalibur VI has been out for a couple of days now, but this hasn't stopped fans from creating some... uh... interesting characters using the flexible character creation feature. Some look pretty awesome and - seeing as people are weird and this is the internet - some are downright terrifying. Let take a dive in some of the weirdest characters the internet has cooked up in SoulCalibur VI.

First up, we have this extremely buffed Pikachu. This electric-mouse Pokemon will surely be able to break even your Onyx in half.

Some disturbed soul though it a great idea to recreate the lovable Kirby. The results are less cute and more nightmare-fueled monstrosity.

On the other hand, we have Sonic the "Hedgehog". Though the color is spot on, the general design falls more in the ripped-dude-in-a-furry-blue-gimp-suit category. Love it or hate it, at least his weapon is a golden ring.

Next, we have the Fabulous Venom design. Complete with a black suit and thorny whip.

In all honesty, the Thanos creation looks pretty cool. The skin color, armor, and general design is spot on. Too bad half the SoulCalibur roster will be wiped out after this snap.

And lastly, and this is just because the internet demands it, we have Bowsette and Booette going at each other in glorious combat.

Be sure to read Paul's glowing review of the game and, if you still haven't, you can pick up a copy right here.
