Does the soul still burn, lads? Will we ever return to the stage of history? Has the legend died?

Been dead a long time, never gonna come back.
Damn.
>Soul Blade/Edge
Lots of stupid shit but was overall a pretty good game, a nice start to the series.
>Soul Calibur
Fantastic game, fixed many of the problems with the first game and refined and expanded on many mechanics, looked absolutely amazing for its time.
>Soul Calibur 2
Horribly dumbed down version of SC1, focus on a "wider audience" gameplay depth was removed in favor of adding guest characters as a selling point, many bugs such as Gstep and 2G make this already painfully slow game even worse.
>Soul Calibur 3
HORRIBLE game received zero testing has even more bugs than SC2, completely unplayable mess. the Arcade Edition fixes most of these bugs and adds new characters.
>Soul Calibur 4
Fixed various problems with the series but added a retarded physics engine that had no place in a fighting game, this led to many infinite juggles and instant ring out combos.
>Soul Calibur 5
By far the best game in the series, goes back to its SC1 roots, ads depth and solid mechanics over stupid minigames, expands on many of the original mechanics, overall a great game.

Maybe after Tekken X Street Fighter
> Has the legend died?
No, it's just been rewritten as a light novel about incest since SCV

Junichi Nakatsuru is a lord. hopefully they get him back for Ace Combat 7

Do you feel the need to post this in every SC thread?
>>340805785
I have warm memories of 3,but like only for the single player campaign. 5 was really fun in versus mode, and by far the best ever it comes to fighting others.
The only reason I pull out my old 360 now and then.
I really want a new soul calibur with the old cast, and a non vampire Rafael, doubt it will happen anytime soon
>Nintendo makes Fire Emblem x Soul Calibur
>it's not a strategy game or a fighting game
>>340805785
My feelings exactly. 5 is so good, if I had my copy I'd be on that shit right now. Creating characters was blast and every character felt unique.
>>340805785
>hates 2 and 3
>likes 5
What's wrong with you?
>>340807183
>Nintendo
and everyone wears a burka if it manages to ship outside of japan?
>>340807313
3 was legit broken garbage man. Hell I mostly played single player at that time, but even I realized that shit was weird.
>>340807702
How was it weird?
>>340807702
Roaster wise 3 was best but yeah the gameplay was shit , if we could get SC3 roaster and offline content with SC5 gameplay and online we would get the perfect soul calibur game
>>340805615
Bring back Sophitia
I hope so, I miss cheesing as Mitsurugi, Nightmare, and Siegfreid.
>>340805615
Will soul caliber 2 ever re-release on pc?
>>340808646
Taki and Sophitia need to come back

Here's your (you)
SC6 WHEN, I FUCKIN NEED IT.

Anyone else feel like they got punched in the gut listening to this song?
Back when I first heard this I had friends, social life, potential..... Now I'm a 30 year old NEET with zero friends and my parents are embarrassed of me.
>>340809497
It's a great track anon. Hang in there buddy.
Mission Mode from Soul Calbur was based.
Who else remembers Conquest Mode from the arcade version of Soul Calibur 2, or am I just an oldfag?
>>340811118
I don't think I've ever seen a SoulCal arcade machine in the wild.
I played the shit out of conquest mode on Xbox tho.
>tfw the all berserker dungeon
>>340811493
I don't remember if the console and arcade versions had the same mode, but in the arcade version you fought these armies (which were other player's characters I think) on this map. If you won your character's army would get stronger. It was pretty addicting in the arcade.

Please let there be a SCVI after Tekken 7. I need Seung Mina back.
If they go back to what made the soul series great (story mode, arcade mode with character endings, and loads of extra goodies) then yes. If they want to deliverer another bare bones experience then no.
>>340813116
But V had the best gameplay
>>340809082
>He doesn't know about the Wii exclusive soul caliber game with Lloyd
>>340805785
How gay is this faggot
>>340812030
i miss the arcade version for conquest mode.
>play Soul Cal in arcade
>playing against some kids army
>his army is stupid strong and i'm basically just testing myself
>kid comes up next to me, "mind if i play?"
>he signs in
>its the kid who leads the army i was just fighting
intense. it felt like i summoned him because i was whooping his army too hard.
>>340814839
Really fucking gay for a SC fan. It's pretty widely known that SC2 an SC3 are top games of all time to patricians.
>>340814954
3 is garbo but 2 is top tanyer
Soul Calibur is the shit. I would kill a man for a 6th game.
>>340813116
This is bait
>>340814954
2 and 3 are shit, how much of an underage casual are you?
>>340805615
I miss the adventure modes from 2 and 3. Liked the character creation from 4. 5 was meh but I'd get 6.
>>340805785
The copy pasta makes SC4 seem not as bad as it truly was.
The game put people to sleep. The pacing was horrible.
>>340814954
>SC3
>Anything but utter dogshit

Obvious bait is obvious

>tfw it's been over 4 years since we've had a new Soul Calibur game
SCV would be perfect if it had a better roster
