I think aspects of the aesthetics are really good, but I agree the grungy hip-hop aesthetic was a weird choice. Like I'm not into the character walk-in to the match cutscene, the rap behind it is kinda lame. This game doesn't really feel like older Street Fighters, even 3rd Strike felt a lot less "urban" than this.

They really tried to put the Street into Street Fighter and despite it not at all being my usual vibe, I'm digging it a whole lot, honestly.

I find it gives SF more of a consistent identity than it's had before. Like, I remember SF2 and SF4 where it really just felt like a bunch of random places in the world where fights just happened to be going down as part of a *VERY* loosely organised tournament with barely any spectators and it never grabbed me.

Now, it feels a bit more like an actual "street fight" while still keeping the "international fighting" theme.

That's the idea behind Street Fighter. If you watch any old style fighting film, there is always some shady organization, remote places, and very nasty looking environment.

yes you are the only one that hates the aesthetics

[Skadoosh]

To answer the question:
No, you are not.
Are you a minority with that opinion?
Yes, you are.

I think this game looks like a malformed pumpkin. Tekken 8 looks so much better in comparison but who cares about 70 - 80$ fighting games anymore, anyway?

All movies you posted here, looks more Street Fighter than this entire game. RIP Sf6, to me this is not Street Fighter.

Maybe because some films here represent the true meaning of street fighting. And I haven't used the the most important one - Enter the Dragon, the film that single handedly influenced a creation of the most important fighting game franchises we are know today.

Not the only one. Its ugly and looks bad even for a PS4 game.
its really not that much of an improvement over SF5, worse in some ways.
Capcom games are really mid, even RE series.

Lemme guess, you don't mod your games to achieve an altered, personalized experience? You on console or something?

[mrrogers]

ill go unpopular opinion here and say I think some older SF games will remain king of SF. I think sf 6 looks okay, but I dont think its going to be the best SF game or anything. Looks pretty similar to 5, and I think the depth of the game is an illusion from being new.

This game looks like ♥♥♥♥, the music sucks, no idea why they decided a hood look was the way to go. Everything about the game is just so bland and boring and uncanny valley looking.

Because it's called STREET FIGHTER.

I personally like the "street" aesthetic but I will admit, it feels like they're trying way too hard to recapture the magic of SF3 and I don't think its gonna work out the way they think it is. SF3 is a game all its own. The art, the music, the characters, the graphics and the time period it came out mixed together create what can only be described as "lightning in a bottle". I have no doubt it'll be a great game but trying to replicate the past usually never works out outside of very very few specific scenarios like resident evil village where the original creators came back and were given complete creative control.
