Have you actually played any of the games? I used to be like you, and though BB was just some anime fighter with characters talking to eachother the whole fight. Which it basically is, but I enjoy it now that I have actually played it.

>>47677452
Yes I used to own GGXX #reload for xbox and the best thing about it was the music. As a fighter it was not that fun.

Tripfag. Get it right, queer.

>>47678063
can't resist more attention can you, namefag?

Funny, I can't enjoy the Street Fighter games because they seem too plain.

sf is about fireballs

in a fighting game, concept doesnt count for two shitty Fucks. weapons vs hands, doesnt matter. its gameplay that matters. for example, gg was a good, fast, and innovative fighter. street fighter cannot be classified under the basic name of sf. the the games have VERY different playstyles. and to like or dislike a FIGHTING game because of its concept while totally disregarding the gameplay is highly ignorant.

>>47678163
Then that means you are shallow and attracted to big anime saucer eyes and special effects.

Not to say that's not what makes it a bad game. I liked BB for a bit. It's just not for me.

SF doesn't need all of that and yet it plays decently well.

>>47678143
No, but you really don't have any other comebacks other than DURRHURRNAMEFAGTRIPFAG.

Anyways, OP didn't really give much of a reason to be hating on BlazBlue OR Guilty Gear other than some weird anti-weeaboo/anime sentiment.

Except my favorite fightan is One Must Fall, a Western made game.

I like it when people use the term weeaboo to describe a Japanese game. It's like hearing someone call 50 Cent a wigger.

>>47678611
its the truth bro

Isn't there an alien in one of the SF games? And a ninja?? And a group of PSYCHO powered nuts? Jus' wonderin...

BB is weaboo and SF4 isn't. Just cause its from japan doesnt make it weaboo, it's when its childish retarded pumpkin headed garbage its weaboo

>>47678611
I was talking about how it didn't need flashy combos and such a superflous technical system to be as decent and deep as it is.

>>47678873

This is what frat bros actually believe.

Personally, I love wacky unrealistic flashy fighting game characters, and as such, my favorite Capcom fighter cast is Darkstalkers. I like Street Fighter as well, but I wouldn't mind if it had more magic fireballs and wacky characters. But you know, whatever floats your boat.

>lol dude watch me troll /v/

>>47678903
jab combos are so much fun

i also love not being able to jump in because of srk and no air blocking

>ITT: My opinion is the absolute true and yours is just a pile of lies.

All good fighting games are made in Japan.
No good fighting games are realistic.

It's just a matter of which one's the most fun.

>enemies that are made of robots

So, the enemy isn't a robot? It's just made out of robots? Does it just have robots inside of it?

wheres my torrent?

>>47679123
Way to mindlessly walk into and not block jabs.

Also way to be a simpleton and not find other ways to deal damage that doesn't involve jumping in like a predictive fool

>>47679043
the yoga theme is just amplified a bit

STREET FIGHTER IS SILLY TOO.

>>47679346

I see this a lot, but you're saying this with a preconceived notion that jumping is wrong somehow. Why should you be punished for jumping?

Jumping stupidly, of course, should be punishable, as should be walking forward stupidly, attacking stupidly, or anything else you do.

But there's nothing about jumping that makes it somehow fundamentally different from any other action you take, unless the game makes it that way (by preventing you from blocking in the air for example.)

Drop the preconceived notion that you SHOULDN'T be able to block in the air, it has no real basis. If a game decides to make that possible or not, it's just a trait of the game, nothing positive or negative.

If you don't like robots just because they are robots, there is something wrong with you.

I mean ffs, basically all you've said is you refuse to play "weaboo" (I swear to fucking god this word needs a filterban so fucking hard) games because of your own personal insecurities. I mean, have you never heard of a weapons fighter before? Not all fighters rely on punches and kicks, buddy. You don't really even mention the actual game mechanics beyond that. Your opinion is shit.

>>47680818
/v/ is too fucking easy to troll.

>>47680224
Oh come on. Someone laughed at that right? :(

>>47680739
Jumping deserves all of the risks because of all the damage potential you can get from it. It also helps you progress forward. With those two in mind, then it's a no-brainer that it carries so many tactical risks.

Think about it. When you jump forward, you're losing control of your character for two seconds. TWO SECONDS. It practically screams, "HIT ME" Air blocking lowers the strategic value of being patient, and lowers potential to build good fundamentals and footsies.

If you want to jump forward, do it when the risks aren't so bad, AKA Cross ups, dizzy combos, or read a fireball. The last is pretty difficult as it requires you to read you opponents patterns at such a high level.

>>47681198
I did.
I wasn't expecting it.

>>47681003
I don't have a problem with soul calibur
its weapons vs weapons and they are all based on styles
fencing rapier style, fencing katana style, whips, sword and shield, two handed sword, nunchuks etc.

but these games are like marionette doll wielder vs gun pistoler, vs lancer, vs sludge ghost

It's not based on any backing. its just whatever the fuck

>>47681295
Better than generic guy in gi versus other generic guy in gi shooting the same fireballs 8 times

>>47681295
So you're upset that it doesn't have much base in fighting arts?

Well, I like blazblue and street fighter bitch.
I'll just be over here enjoying my all types of games.

>>47681509
yeah, that's right.

>>47681717
That's kinda like being upset about inaccuracies in Dante's Inferno. Don't know how how bad or good that is, but that's the analogy.

>>47681819
Oh I get shit because I like characters who represent a fighting style and you get off the hook because you want to play as girls in a frilly dress

what the fuck is that shit

What Capcom made games that do the same things like Star Gladiator (laser swords) or Tech Romancer (Giant Robots)? How about Last Blade where it's flashy swords and magic done in a more Street Fighter type style?

Just curious to see if the OP's preference is for Capcom fighters in general or just "punchin' kickin" fighting games.

Weeaboo is a fucking retarded adjective. I mean shit, hate the game, I don't care, but find another word to use, not only is the meaning of the word lost, but it also makes you sound like an imbecile.

>>47681982
Sounds more like you want to link your post to >>47681407 that guy.

I respect the desire for preferring a base in actual arts.

>>47682097
Don't forget Darkstalkers, all of the nonsense that goes on with that game.

>>47681295
Because now the gaming public is obsessed with variety when it comes to fightangaem rosters, even though they'll inevitably just use one or two of the most boring characters over and over.

You could make a whole fighting game where everyone was a normal human and just used a different form of martial arts, but people wouldn't buy it.

>>47682246
Darkstalkers is probably their best work.

>>47682332
>implying no one liked Virtua Fighter games

>>47682332
Um...

Quick question, what decently good fighting game series wasn't made by the japs?

>>47682097
I liked samurai spirits
and tekken (i hate yoshimitsu)
I played darkstalkers but I never really liked it because its like ggxx and bb
I like soul calibur
Star Gladiator...not really know it was a little too fantastical for me.
I love the SNK KoF series, it started getting a little weird though with koola and etc.

I liked it back when it had Heidern Ralph and Clark on one team. Was my fav team.

>>47681241
>and lowers potential to build good fundamentals and footsies.
>lowers potential to build footsies

GOOD. THAT SHIT IS FUCKING BORING.

Sounds like the OP can't dustloop :3

I really can't see how in any way E Honda is sumo wrestling

>>47682517
Mortal Kombat until 4
Zeno Clash i guess

>>47682585
OP here, I dunno what dustloop is. I haven't played BB but I have played GGXX. I dont want to play BB

Personally i prefer the insaine psycho weaboo nut animu fighters. not because its SO KAWAII UGUU~ but because the whole "ITS A REALISTIC FIGHTER THEY USE REALISTIC FIGHTING STYLES" just doesnt seem like my taste.

when i hear "fighter" i expect flashy attacks, belts zippers, freaky character designs and awesome finishing moves.

that is why BB is a great game, not to say that street fighter and shit is bad, but its not my style.

>>47682715
If you've played any version of GGXX, it's well worth learning dustloop.

>>47682246

In a way, I find Darkstalkers kinda funny. You know, most of the enemies parody horror movie monsters and both Eastern and Western mythology.

And yet, despite all that, the characters do all kinds of other goofy shit.

Succubus? Oh yeah, she also turns her wings into a jetpack.

Zombie? He plays a guitar and his legs turn into chainsaws

Vampire? He's also a kung fu master and GIVES MAGICAL SEX CHANGES

>>47682697
Oh yeah Mortal Kombat. Those games really have gotten bad haven't they?

>>47682715
well dustloop is in GGXX. It's a loop combo preformed by using the aerial dust attack to wall bounce the opponent. It's most famously used by sol, but also can be utilized by other characters such as baiken. It's so popular the most popular GG site is named after it.

>>47677281
>What I mean by that is enemies that are made of robots or magic and use lollipops or space lasers or their brooding persona as a weapon.

So you hate Tekken as well?

>>47682871
yeah imo the last good MK was II

>>47680739
Are you retarded?

>faster than walking
>avoids most ground attacks
>can be linked into longer more damaging combos than while on the ground

BB has air block because normal jumping sucks ass. You have to air dash to get anywhere, which, go figure, leaves you unable to block, and jumping moves mostly suck and don't combo very well. There''s still shit you have to barrier guard in the air anyways.

Dashing leaves you unable to block as well...


Anyways, BB does have a bit too much appealing to /a/ and a bit too little appealing to good gameplay. Can we have throws that justify their existence? Please?

>>47681579
I'm with this man. Fuck this arguing you fucking nit picking tigger nits.

Why can't there be some kind of middle ground?

You know, something both ludicrously over the top, yet with some marginal basis in reality.

Like a Jeet Kune Do master who is also a giant electric squid.

Or a Muay Thai cyborg with rocket launchers in his feet.

Or a sexy demon chick who practices 19th century boxing.

There. I just made 3 pretty damn awesome characters. Someone fucking make them.

>>47683163
basically tekken i guess

>>47682561
FUCK YOU TOO BRO.

Awesome:
Blazblue
Guilty Gear
Street Fighter
Soul Calibur
DoA4

Do not want:
Tekken. Christfuck on a bike I hate tekken. But that's mainly because I'm shit at it.

>>47683210

except Tekken is terrible. And doesn't have squids.

'nuff said

at least BB doesn't have teleportation, or big ass yin-yangs in blue people's stomachs, or demons, or Dan, or floating hurricane kicks, or even fire balls, or flaming dragon punches, or niggers, but I guess that's what makes SF so great right?

>>47683163
let me fix that for you

Jeet Kun Do Cyborg
Boxing Squid
Muay Thai succubus

Much better.

>>47682843
Yeah it is quite nice. Not to mention Commando Red Riding Hood

>>47681295

Are you saying SF is based on real arts? I mean... Ryu resembles a karate user about as much as guile's hair represents a military buzzcut.

And not every fighting game has be about some kind of fighting tournament. Personally I prefer character-based games as opposed to "this guy is a sumo wrestler!" and that's all there is to his character. In general I find Street Fighter characters to be very stereotypical/shallow, so I find them uninteresting for the most part. Not that fighting games usually have standout characters, but most of them are better than SF in that sense.

>>47683538

Honestly, they're practically interchangeable.

You could get 3 dart boards.

1 with "character types" (Robot, Old Man, Squid, Demon, etc.)

1 with "fighting styles" (Muay Thai, Boxing, Nunchaku, etc.)

1 with "special abilities" (Fire, Lasers, etc.)

and when you wanna make a character, just throw a dart at each board.

>>47683322
I think i recall some old SNK fighter where you played as various animals (main character was a lion with a sword), and one of them was a squid or nautilus or something.

>>47683163
>You know, something both ludicrously over the top, yet with some marginal basis in reality.
Power Stone

>>47683788
Red Earth, it's a Capcom game. It's story based though, basically one long boss rush.

>>47683629

Problem with giving fighting game characters more than a superficial personality and story, is they end up often becoming shit.

I mean, look at the character development in BlazBlue. As a result, you have characters that are somehow even MORE one dimensional.

>>47683076

>faster than walking

Depends on the game, not a default trait of a jump. If the game has dashing/a run command, it's probably actually slower.

>avoids most ground attacks

That's true, but standing on the ground avoids anti-air attacks (or at least they're less effective.)

>can be linked into longer more damaging combos than while on the ground

Depends on the game, but this is something different. Now it's not "jumping," it's "jumping and attacking." And you can't block while doing that even in a game that allows blocking while jumping.

I wasn't saying anything specific like "jumping should be safer in sf4", I was saying that just because jumping is dangerous in sf4 doesn't mean that it inherently -should- be that way in other games that might be completely different.

>>47679790
Bang would win.

If you pay attention to the story, Bang is actually pretty powerful.

In reality he is Tenzo. He was defeated by Jin and left unconscious, but lost recollection of it. When he woke up, he didn't know that he was Tenzo and the power that he had. His subordinates follow him hoping that he will someday remember.

>>47677281
So in other words you're afraid of anything that interferes with your concept of reality and what your pastor claims Gods' will is.

Stop being a blind lamb and start thinking for yourself before you're lead by your nose to your own slaughter.

>>47683534
...except it does

Arakune and Nu both teleport
Litchi has magical Ying Yang shit
It has a vampire and a half-vampire, plus Arakune easily passes as a demon
Taokaka
Oh hey, is that sum Jump Canceling, air Inferno Divider, and Berial Edge?
SWORDS
D Inferno Divider
I'm going to say Tager because fuck you. He's basically Potemkin anyways.

I mean, god damn, that's an awful post.

>>47683629
Ryu has a lot of karate moves. He just also has chi projectiles and a rising uppercut as well.

>>47683629
name any fighting character that is more interesting than M.Bison/Vega

everyone loves bison. The voice actor is so good. Bison's "I'm an asshole you can't stop me" smile. The sound of his teleport. His laugh.

I love the sf designs so much. Espeically Alpha. I think sf4 is a over muscly. I really hated the new characters like the mexican, fat rufus, and Gouken. I imagined gouken to be a lot more like Gen.

>>47684175

Bang is pretty powerful, especially for a guy that doesn't even make use of his Nox.

>>47683848
>basis in reality
HOW ABOUT JACK?

>>47684175

HOLD THE FUCK UP.


IS THIS TRUE? HOLY SHIT

>>47684303
his bumpers and nails are his nox, probably frkz too, because that's basically bumpers everywhere

bang without bumpers and nails would instantly be shit

>>47684254

>SF4 is over muscly
>prefer's alpha's design

Dude, Bison is FUCKHUGE in Alpha. I fucking hate Alpha bison.

>>47684357
He's Jack the Ripper

>>47684254
alpha was bison's worst designs. He looks like he's too big and muscly to fit his own fighting style. In SF2, CVS, and SFIV, he's much more sleek.
Also, hazama is better than bison.in The Rumble Fish, i mean.just kidding

>>47684481

Actually, I'm pretty sure the nails and bumpers are simple ninjutsu. His gauntlets (which he uses for his drives, phoenix smash, etc.) are his Nox.

>>47684487
that's true, but thats where bison got his first redisign from a skinny crappy villain to the good version. Yeah he was kinda fat looking but the bison eyes, smile, poses, etc all comes from alpha bison.

>>47684607
He's actually pretty big in SFIV, he just doesn't have the cape.

>>47684675

Most of his titular posing and stuff came from SF2.

Pretty much DAT GRIN and DEM EYES came from Alpha.

>>47684665

It's actually never stated what his Nox is. His gauntlets could be his nox, but I think in story mode Rachel states that Bang isn't using his nox or at least isn't aware he has one.

So you hate creativity is games. That's fine OP, not a big deal.

It's just a game, ok? It's ok if characters use completely impossible moves. And don't get started about realism when you have Ryu shooting Shinku-Hadokens and Bison going all Psycho Crusher like a fucker. You don't hate BlazBlue and Guilty Gear because of the characters, you hate them because you suck at them.

And really, people you get into a fighting game based on character design are the kind of people who shouldn't be playing fighting games.

Bang doesn't use his Nox because he doesn't know he has his Nox because he forgets he is Tenzo.

>>47684665
IF BANG'S NOX HASN'T BEEN ACTIVATED AND HE USES HIS GAUNTLETS POWER IN BATTLE (REALIZING HE'S USING FIRE NINJITSU, AS SAID IN HIS STORY MODE), HOW ARE HIS GAUNTLETS HIS NOX

>>47684717

He's more proportional in SF4. in Alpha, his upper body is beefy compared to his lower body.

>>47684755
he wouldn't even be near as loveable without dem crazy eyes and grin

I wish daisuke could redesign blazblue's characters

I'm not playing Arksys's games because I don't care for them. I'm especially not going to now that I have Brawl+ to keep me busy. I'm even having trouble deciding if I want TvC or not. I can see myself buying it and not playing it.

>>47684675
Actually, that was the SFII movie, which the Alpha design was based off of, and SFIV practically uses verbatim, honestly. You could argue it was -really- Super Street Fighter II before that even, since SSFII had the new "manlier" portraits with the square jaws and shit.

But even his post-SFII moves like teleporting or the SSFIV Psycho Punisher are based on the movie.

OP again

all being said i'd love for whatever developer that does BB and GGXX to do a SFIV draw.

I know it will NEVER happen. I love their art quality I just hate the kingdom hearts madness in their art.

I'm on the same boat as OP. BB and GG's design seems wacky for the sake of wacky.

I have nothing against anime/manga nor do I go around calling people weeaboos. I just didn't like the combo-oriented fighting system that both BB and GG had.

>>47684898

>Brawl+

>>47684924
As I was saying

>>47682486

Why the fuck did nobody else mention UFC 09? It's easily a better fighting game than SF4.

>>47682486
I love that game.

>>47685096
He has a royco cuppa soup chin.

>>47685281
god abel's face looks almost as bad as cammy's portrait in HDR

>>47685336
UDON isn't know for their beautiful art style.

This is the best Abel picture ever done. He actually looks human, not roided out.

You're not alone OP. Actually I'm glad someone else share the same sentiment as I. I am not a touney fag, when it comes to fighting game I just want one that's fun to play and has likable characters. GG and BB has that stupid design that tries too hard to be cool. Creative and detailed characters are good but GG and BB is just over doing it. It's that in your face I'M SO UNIQUE LOOK AT ME visual that turns me off. Street Fighter animations and characters are more convincing. Although with new character like Abel, who is completely devoid of creative design or personality, I'm not sure if Capcom remembers what makes original SF cast so memorable and likable.

>>47685191

>pick from a plethora of characters with different fighting styles and statistics

>still end up groping each other on the ground, no matter what the matchup.

>>47685412
they both look roided out actually

its just less noticeable since they both have massive arms that 99% of people would never get

>>47685096
that's not the crazy grin and eyes im talking about
thats a scowl not a grin

>Although with new character like Abel, who is completely devoid of creative design or personality, I'm not sure if Capcom remembers what makes original SF cast so memorable and likable

What.

>>47685412
Not that any of them are necessarily god tier, but still, it's unfair to lump everyone together.

>>47685520
>abel
>not likeable

>>47685718
Girls are drawn marginally better by UDON. But for guys, it's like their artists skipped the required Anatomy & Physiology course of an Art major.

>>47685537
This batshit insane grin?

>>47685863

Udon is generally terrible at drawing. I have no idea how they ACTUALLY BECAME AN ART DESIGNER FOR CAPCOM.

>>47685993
That's why I said marginally.

>>47685921
yes exactly

>>47685863
That's like saying Marvel doesn't know how to draw when you look at that piece of shit Liefeld's work.

>>47685993
Somewhere along the line it became economically desirable for Capcom USA to have an exclusive deal with them. Fun fact, by the way, there's still actually Street Fighter manga being made in Japan, maybe Udon will release it a few years down the road like they have with Sakura Ganbaru and shit.

>>47686229
Artist should have a basic understanding of how the human body looks, especially if they're drawing martial artist/people with toned bodies. All I'm asking for is consistency on how they draw their characters. Sometimes Abel makes the DERPiest faces ever, and it's really, really distracting when in the next panel he looks nothing like he did a panel ago.

Pic related.

>>47686229

Care to tell me which specific Liefeld-grade Udon artist I should be hating, so I'm not spitting vitriol at the entire company, then?

>>47686468
Chamba.

>>47686420
arms the size of thighs and thighs the size as arms on birde(sp)

Oh god that picture, Sagat's dick will destroy Chunners pussy.

>>47686543
Awesome, can't unsee.

>>47686468
Honestly, none of them are even 1/10th as shitty as Liefeld.

You are now realizing Udon crew artists make average wages and are barely even known individually while Liefield became a multi-millionaire celebrity as a comic artist.

>>47677281
>Bitching about Guilty Gear and Blazblue
>Likes Street Fighter

Enjoy your game full of characters with no creativity.

>>47686543
Have you ever looked at Birdie's sprite?

>>47686773

Considering a lot of the art Udon greenlights, I'm somewhat glad for that.

Granted, Liefeld is a travesty. But we don't need another one with Udon.

I like this picture. I'm sure there's some flaw in it, but still.

>>47686955
They're honestly pretty average as US comics go.

Now Pat Lee, -there's- a faggot.

>>47687153

>XD I'm being racist on the internet!

I enjoy both BB and SF4. In honesty though; BB's learning curve > SF4's learning curve.

Suck it, bitches.

>>47687547
Nobody knows what the fuck that's supposed to mean.

>BB's learning curve > SF4's learning curve

Is the greater than because BB's learning curve is harder to learn or because it's easier to learn or because...?

tl;dr: you make no sense

I agree with OP, blazblue and GG are the epitome of japanophile weeaboo shit. They're fine as fighters but jesus christ the designs are so fucking retarded half the time.

are you sure you don't mean melty blood or arcana heart or big bang beat or million knights vermilion?

BB just seemed like throwing out random moves hoping to hit one then LOL 100 HIT COMBO. That plus the majority of the character designs being awful, and I returned the game.

>why i hate blazblue
>look at noel
how can you hate this?

> BB and GG haters calling fans weaboos
> Street Fighter was MADE IN JAPAN

>>47688547
Once again, weeaboo doesn't mean 'made in Japan'

>>47677281
>implying being original is bad

>>47688547
I love when people completely miss the fucking point. It's like putting someone who watched ju-on once in the same boat as someone who has a hug pillow, oppai balls, ever episode of naruto untranslated, etc.

SF is Japanese but it's not the retarded anime shit half of everything coming out of Japan is. MGS is Japanese but apart from some retarded aspects of it it's pretty westernized.

Basically you're stupid.

>>47688673
Looks like the weeaboos are mad.

>>47688642
>Implying BlazBlue is 'original'

BlazBlue's design is as original as Kingdom Hearts: belts and zippers, am I kawaii?

>>47688642
The inane scribblings of a child in crayon are original, that doesn't make them good. A lot of designs in games like these are original for the sake of being original, and that's when they start being completely fucking retarded. Like this picture.

Yes, it's "original," but it's also completely fucking retarded to anyone looking at it without the biased love of your average final fantasy fan. A giant, glass pizza cutter sword chained to itself, highheel boots with bowl socks, some kind of weird, leaf/grass skirt over short suspenders.

Fucking christ. I always laugh when people who love japan say western character design is bland simply because they're all white guys with shaved heads since for the most part the rest of their design is fairly unique without being upside down retarded.

Yahtzee described War from Darksiders as looking like someone sat down and never stopped drawing. Well that's every "original" japanese character. While the 40K look at least has an overly ornate, decorated feel, stuff like this looks like I don't even fucking know.

"I think that, well and you are entitled to your own opinion, but uhh, I think THINK well, by that meaning that maybe you are right and maybe I am, and maybe we both are, uhh not that THAT'S 100% for sure either, oh I mean unless you think so, you see umm, uhh..."

>>47688451
By listening to a single god damned thing that comes out of her mouth. Jesus Christ, it's intolerable enough when watching Japanese girls fuck, I don't need to put up with this shit just for an animu fighting game.

>>47688953
OP again. That is exactly what I'm talking about. That kingdom heartsy design is applied to their fighting style. It gets based on ridiculous things.

Like Dizzy from GGXX
"Okay this female character has wings."
"Cool."
"Yeah and she hates fighting."
"What?"
"Yeah and the wings are actually spirits of good and evil."
"Uhhh dude?"
"Yeah, yeah and she has huge boobs and wears ribbons and shit as clothing."
"I LOVE IT!"

THE ONLY character i liked in GGXX was slayer. Dude with a nice beard and a pipe and he doesn't give a fuck. But I wouldn't want to play slayer vs ryu or mashal law.

>>47688953
The only character's who gget near that level of overdesigning are Ragna, Jin, Tsubaki and maybe Bang. Th rest are fairly streamlined with little quirks like Noel's tasels.

>>47688590
Don't mind him, Robin, he's just an asspained weeaboo in denial.

The silliness and wacky weapons is the appeal to me. I don't like street fighter because it's punch kick punch kick grapple.

>>47689487
I tried.

>>47689598
I love the grappling, punch, kick, punch

Then again, I'm into MMA

>>47688237

You know, Melty Blood characters are pretty tame.

They are mostly normally drawn anime people with normal clothes. There's nothing particularly outlandish about any of the designs, aside from the joke characters.

For example, Sion I could easily imagine in the SF Alpha series without too much of a disconnect.


Blazblue does go pretty overboard in some cases. I've got to say Tsubaki's design has really grown on me, though, and she's probably going to be my favorite character in that game.

>>47689487
I hope you don't play any mario games or shit on your playstation then.

Is this me, or does watching Street Fighter 4 make you think of sweaty feet? I mean, I feel like I'm reading an Incredible Hulk comic book, watching a bunch of sweaty beefcakes grapple each other and shit, getting all fucking greasy and 'gropey'.
While 2-D 'toon fighters like BlazBlue might have equally beefy characters, they fight in a very agile way, and it just doesn't feel as... intimate... ya know?

>>47689456
You're just comparing sperm whales to blue whales. Their still both fucking big, and most animu j-pop game characters are too. Let's put it this way: if they're supposed to be wearing casual clothing (not armor, different species/race, robotic hand, etc.) and it takes a fanboy longer than a week and a half to get his costume ready for Otacon, it's a badly designed clusterfuck.

>>47689773
But that's why I like it

Because I like muscular, strong men :3

>>47689773
I'm perfectly okay with these sweaty feet.

>>47688953

reasonable point but maybe you should post a character from one of the games that are being talked about

>>47689906
Or these sweaty thighs

>>47689932

>>47689678
Oh that's awful!!! she just grew wings, floated in mid air, said a bunch of japanese, and then a giant 3d statue that doesn't look anything like the game appears and the character then dies. The statue doesn't even hit the character just a yellow slash appears across them and they die.

THATS TERRIBLE

>>47689948
Also this sweaty ass

>>47689998
Nobody said Tsubaki had a good astral.
on the other hand, Tager's is badass

>>47690115
yeah I don't care

>>47690250

>>47689773
Someone's having issues with their masculinity

>>47689773
have you ever done any martial arts? Place smells like old sweat and a bunch of people sweating and grunting and then you start sucking each others dicks its great and then they fist your ass

Well, I wasn't really pointing out what has happening in the astral finish, I was referring to the character itself.

Personally, I like the angel form. I think a lot of Blazblue characters are either poorly designed (Litchi), underdesigned (Carl) or overdesigned (Rachel.) Tsubaki however doesn't have anything that bothers me (the hat looked like it would be odd at first but it's fine in motion) and some things she does look cool without being obnoxiously flashy.

Do you know why I like Ragna? His pants. Badass futuristic hakama lookin shit. Every good fighter has badass pants. Fei Long. Dee Jay. Abel. Sol. Iori.

>>47677281
>baww I want boring charecters

Noit saying I hate SF, but their characters are definitely somewhat boring. Sure, you got the odd balls like Blanka, Dahlsim, Oro, Akuma, and that other stretchy guy but overall they're fairly traditional.

I can see what you're saying tho, BB seems to be a BIT too weeaboo out for me and I'm a huge Guilty Gear fan. I love GG and SF3S character design, shit seems to hit a fairly nice spot.

Then again, SF4 has generally goofy new character that are just meh. I do like Able but in game he looks way too BigMcLargeHuge.

The only game that I can think of that hit's a nice balance of eastern and western art while having generally awesome characters that look amazing in combat is Darkstalkers/Vampire Savior. Nothing really tops it for me personally.

>>47690792
you can't make that post and then post THE BEST looking character from Darkstalkers

raptor is a british rock zombie
fuck that is an awesome character for any game

>>47690662
How his Carl underdesigned? Shorts showing off his shota legs. Glasses. Weird Purple Shirt thing. Top Hat. Marionettes coming out every which way. Giant zipper tab. Bone shaped collar thing.

>>47690792

I fucking love everything about darkstalkers except, why are all the fucking supers retarded LP,MP,6,HK,HP inputs

>>47690937

I always got that feeling from him for whatever reason. He seems plain. Perhaps it's not just the visual design but also other aspects - his moves, maybe, or his purpose in the setting?

>>47690937
Miniature marionette controlling his brain hidden under his tophat
Electrocute him and shit bricks.

Yeeeeah....stop using Morrigan There are a few others with supers like that, but only Morrigan has EVERY super that's like that (and her supers are crap too).

>>47691106
Certainly not his moves. I like how he's the only character who never touches the opponent. Everything is done with puppets.

>>47691206
>I'm bad and I play bad people!

awesome, you'll never break out of that "hadouken, shoryuken if they jump in" mentality and actually learn to play.

>>47691206
to have a ken vs. ken match you have to be as huge a faggot as the other ken and actually pick ken

which i don't

>>47691096
Try Vampire Savior 1 and 2.

>>47690927
The only one I DON'T like is Sasquatch, and that's only because he has that weird different fur pattern on his tits for some reason.

I really do need some more Jedah art. Him, Phobo's, and Raptor are my mains.

>>47691303
>implying Rachel dirties her hands with commoner trash

Guilty Gear and Blazblue are better than Street fighter because they are more complex and have much more cast diversity. No shoto clones or any of that shit.

>>47691393
Jedah is weaboo bishonen garbage

>>47679187

>realistic
>good

This game is both.

>>47691484
>character originating from japan
>weeaboo
stop that.

>this thread
You know better /v/

>>47691511
OP here i owned that game
i loved it too

it was great ;_;

>>47691393
Jedah
http://www.mediafire.com/?jwhfiw20wjm

And I kind of like Sasquatch, he's pretty funny.

>>47691404
I was waitinf for someone to say that, she wraps her leg around the enemy and slaps them for her throw. Otherwise, the not touching the opponent with rachel fits her character as well.

>>47691484
The only weeaboo thing about jedah is that his blazer looks kinda like a gakuren

>>47691484
I....what?

>>47691593
Ohshi, thanks. Really, fan art of the male cast of VS is like stupidly hard to find. That and

Also I must ask, did you just start posting as anon or do you just have a social life?

OP is stupid, because aesthetics are secondary to game design. Not to mention BlazBlue's aesthetics (and that of many Japanese games) are excellent.

>>47681295
You probably don't even play Virtua Fighter.

>>47691901
Anon on and off, and yes those without tits are forgotten.

>>47692161
not much anymore, no
i like tekken better

>>47692194
Or bullshit hard to play! I'm looking at you Anakaris and Victor! But especially you Anakaris!

Hsein-Ko is also hard IMO but there's plenty of her because of blue titties.
