Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition |OT2| Street Fighter Has Come Home

They're definitely not abandoning the game. We already have confirmation that there are more characters after Kage coming out, for example, and they're still doing extra battle stuff. There's likely gonna be a new balance patch sooner than later, and we're gonna still get new costumes and maybe a stage here and there.
It's just that, support is obviously dwindling. And it's natural; this isn't Fortnite or some hugely successful game which can be supported in perpetuity. It's gonna make it to 2020, but that's where I think things might hit an actual wall. 4 years is a good run for a fighting game that had a spectacular mess of a start like SFV.
If we get a character when Type Arcade drops, then dope. But Type Arcade is looking more like a swan song than a rebirth right now.
The small hope that I have that I know will be left unfulfilled because this is Street Fighter V, is that all of this season's new characters will drop at once alongside the arcade version of the game, and that's why they've been weird about season passes and stuff. Sagat + G could have been an indication of this. But it's not gonna happen.
That would be incredible and make up for all of this silence. It would be right around the start of the CPT season too. If the last major update we got for this game was that, I'd be more than happy.
Too good to be true tho.
If you like the game, you keep playing, like any other fighting game, past and present.
I will keep playing SFV if there are no more characters because I like the game. Just like old Capcom games that lost support that I liked.
Then 6 will kill 5, NRS styles, hehe.

This is honestly no different than the people wanting to believe the bogus rumors that Capcom was gonna release two free characters or some shit.
Losing hope is what caused Brooks to draw the line.
Don't lose hope.
Heh, I just finished watching that before I checked this thread. When he got to Laura I was like "Man, JusDoIt's going to be disappointed."
That's Handsome Squidward.So over on the Gaming side there is a thread where people are feeding video game character portraits to an Nvidia deep-learning AI program that reconstructs facial features with CGI.
Someone fed the machine Ken's character select portrait. Not even HAL 9000 can fix Ken's face:

It's -4, so still punishable by everyone in the cast unless your spacing is immaculate.
They wimped out by not going full fundoshi on the backside of Ryu's Jin alt. 😒
It's still amazing though. 💁♂️

That's the face of someone who just outplayed Gief and still lost because he made one mistake.
I still use it by virtue of me also using Loincloth Urien. It's still a fantastic costume either way, regardless of the version you use.
All it needed was Yakuza tats and all would have been forgiven.
It's a 9/10, which is phenomenal. Definitely a victory for gay rights. 😎
Tattoos are a curse. Nevernevernevernevernevernevernever.
They should punch each other. They messed up big time.
When it comes to character design, I feel like straights don't know what to do with male skin, so they plaster them with tattoos. It's lazy and trite IMO.
Do I come over to where you live and shit all over your dreams?
Then why are you doing it to me?
Ironic that you respond to a post that says "messed up big time" with a gif that includes Dojima getting smacked in the head. Daigo totally deserved it ;)
Meanwhile, SFV is really being annoying with lack of Fight Money now. I've got enough for Guts Man and probably the next good costume after that, but then I'm pretty much out of luck :(

I'd love to play Yakuza, but there's too much shady, borderline homophobic shit.
I think they're trying to fix it, but I dunno. There's that one side quest where you help a lesbian lady be true to herself, but then there's all that other stereotypical stuff with male NPCs. :/
For whatever its worth, they've removed some content from the recent remasters that was considered transphobic and the localizations really are doing a great job at making the protagonists more accepting people.
There's still an element of machismo at the centre of the series which I doubt will go away considering the series started out aimed at older japanese men and that target hasn't entirely changed. But they have at least grown a little.
I don't have any problem with machismo, as long as it's not at the expense of anyone else. I encourage them to keep fighting shirtless (and sans pants) as much as they like. Maybe have Kiryu become a stripper in the next one, and I'll be his manager.
I might try that Judge Eyes, or whatever. WE'LL SEE I GUESS.
Kiryu's already voiced a yaoi game in Yakuza 2/Kiwami 2. And he was almost a male model in Yakuza 2/Kiwami 2.
And yes, you need to try JUDGE EYES. Else I'll just have to come to the land of Maple Syrup and send you a copy myself.
