You think they'll wait until after Paris Games Week is over to upload the trailer, like, have it an event exclusive thing for a few days? I really wanna see it. Gotta know whether that Juice Truck is selling Apple or Strawberry Juice!

Apparently, Paris Games Week runs until Tuesday this week (30th) just fyi...

I don't know why they didn't release the trailer before because now with 2B reveal for SC VI everyone (me as well) only want to know her release date.

Hehe, you kinda have a point.
2B for SoulCalibur was a pretty huge deal, sorta like with Geralt even tho I personally didn't care about him at all.
Geralt and 2B are two super popular characters.

I doubt that they knew that the trailer for her was going to come out tho.
But it's pretty bad timing indeed, because 2B will still be talked about and in the spotlight.
More DoA focused fans will obviously still care, but general audiences probably won't really notice.

And I think they didn't announce 2B realease date to keep people looking at SC VI this week.

I'm sure both Namco Bandai and TN know they are fighting for a main slot in next EVO because ASW games, Tekken 7 and Smash Ultimate are guaranteed to be there.

Probably the same reason TN have yet to post the Christie trailer.

The thing is they said she will be released "really soon" so before and some weeks after her release she will be taking centre stage.

I think they should have been released Christie trailer the same day they showed it at Paris.

And the DOA community is pretty much dead until the next controversial topic comes around

confrimation bias.

You're simply not here when were discussing the hype for the game, you missed all the excitement for Tina, Bass, and Mila

There was character speculation for a long time here after that on the forums.
Every new interview that pops up, we discuss it at length.

Your reacting to a small handful of negative comments mixed with hype, and you think that this forum only reacts to controversy. You're just not active enough here to know what you're talking about.

Team Ninja do not pull a SFV and Tekken. And i would love if you can add customization to the game considering this series love keeping up with appearences and costumes. After having fun with VF5 customization i cant look back.

I'm guessing you haven't seen the ♥♥♥♥ lizards of SCVI, or the giant rainbow cubes, and big apples doing battle.

I'm staunchly against a customization mode for DOA, it would be the worst thing they could add.

Perhaps there's some truth to that, even tho they said that they didn't have any E-sports goals for SoulCalibur.
They probably still do, it's just that it can often be bad PR to say that you do because a lot of people do take the '' we're E-sports '' as meaning '' less fun ''.
Even already existing E-sports games like SFV that went all in on the E-sports wagon got ♥♥♥♥ for it and I think that even to this day ( including to me ) a great deal of people feel as if it's a worse and dumbed down game because of it.

SoulCalibur 6 honestly is pretty fun to look at tho, and it does feel a lot more '' cinematic '' now but without it feeling frustrating.
The reversal edge mechanic is very flashy and can be quite tense, I don't feel like it has gotten boring yet even tho it happens quite frequently since it involves you instead of just being a cutscenes that plays out.
And there's a lot of back and forth there too where a lot of different things can happen within a small time-frame.
It feels like a great addition in terms of viewing the game too, whilst still seemingly having prioritized the actual gameplay and the fun first and foremost.
It works perfectly in both regards imo.

I know that EVO is a big deal, but I wish that they'd just stop obsessing so much over it...
The most fun games to watch also tend to be the most fun ones to play imo, and when you focus too much on E-sports I think that you often tend to forget that and the focus becomes more on '' looking good '' and sacrifices are made with the gameplay.
I hope that doesn't happen with DoA6... SoulCalibur 6 did an amazing job with it imo and I hope that they're serious about the '' fun first '' direction that they stated for DoA6.
Even tho they initially got aboard the '' we're E-spurts naow '' train...

I just don't think that DoA6 HAS to be a big E-sports game and be a main event at EVO....
But some people almost seem to look at it in a way that comes across as '' if you're not a main event at EVO, you're a failure '' <.<...
There's obviously people who push a lot for that ( often because it's in their own interest as they're pro players ), but I don't think that it'd necessarily benefit the game in the end. And DoA can't survive a sense of '' letdown '' in that regard like SFV gave, the casual aspect and emphasis on fun is by far more important to DoA.

I think when producers talk about being or not being e-sports it's something a bit ambiguous to determine what they fully mean since everyone would want their game being at a major event like EVO. In fact SC VI is already being played in several tournaments like ECT and Fighting Tuesday so I'm pretty sure Okubo and Bandai Namco want SC VI being as popular as it can be.

About Reversal Edge, I think it is "ok" because at least every character has a "best situation" input so you can guess what they will want to do, so even if they don't go with their best input for their character and they win the rock-paper-scissors battle, they won't inflict as much damage as they would inflict in their best case input scenario.

But for me the key is Soul Charge. Returning from SC III and better than ever its reminds me to Overdrive in BlazBlue, giving unique tools to each character and being really critical to control neutral game thanks to its push back.

I am talking about having customization like VF5, not SC.

[DreamySora]

i think her new outfit looks good, not very special (atleast for me) but i guess that was their goal.
hmm for me the outfits i associate with christie the most are this 2
(+i hope they will be in doa6 as well):

her doa4 cinematic outfit:

Yeah, I totally agree here. I would like more customisation though, in the form of being able to customise colours of individual parts of outfits instead of palette swaps taking up so many slots, and expand the accessories customisation. Bring back different hairstyles, maybe allow to choose nail polish colour or add jewellery to the characters or something to make it a bit more interesting

I would only support that if it's extremely limited, no stupid items like water wings, no life-preservers, no animal tails, no animal mittens, no bondage masks, no HATS of any kind unless they're locked to costume theme, no floating items, no neon colors, no flashing lights.

Limit color palettes to colors that the characters would actually wear.
Basically, I want it so limited that it barely even functions.

xD lmao, so basically might as well not even have it. If there was a party mode or a "D*@k off Mode" where crazy stupid edits were enabled but you had to make a specific lobby for it and everyone had to agree to see it, then I'd be okay with it. Oooooooor maybe make it easier and just have a "Do u want to see custom stuff" toggle.

I agree, I dont usually do anything too ridicilous with creation mode, but I like extra parts for customization. Sure, you can make genitals, but you can also make something like Hellboy or your own creation with those extra parts. Take away those parts and its only dress up. Considering those Ivy's and Voldo's SM outfits there are more thought than in usual fanservice behind them.

However I also hace committed horrible sin with SCVI character creator, I thought my character creator roster look more like adult movie audition that fighting game roster, so I...I...clothed some of my skimpy geared female characters.

Is it just me or is there way more negativity going on in SCVI Steam forum? I can understand why many people hate character creation because some seem to exploit it in ranked and such, but I am bit suprised how many hate new character 2B.
