SC2 on Gamecube was the best one hands down. Still looks better than 95% of current gen games, even while running on gamecube hardware. Loaded faster than the Xbox or PS2 versions as well.

I didn't even get to mention Link yet :^)

I enjoyed the gameplay of 2 most, never ran into the exploits people talk about.

3 had just tons of content though. It is probably the biggest of the Soul Calibur games. Had my save get corrupted though since I had the original version.

4 and 5 are not even worth talking about? Where the heck is Soul Charge?

>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.

-The next Soul Calibur is just called Soul Calibur
-It will have all the characters except guests..eventually
-there will be dozens of guest characters as DLC from Tales, Souls, The Witcher, God Eater
-has a lame story where Siegfried and Hilde's daughter from the future comes back to kill either of them to prevent her own birth so she doesnt become Nightfall but it's at least a full and fully featured story mode
-you can buy everything with ingame money except the guest characters but it'll take thousands of hours to earn that much

It was always like this before, you can never tell the shifting between Mitsurugi, Siegfried, Sophitia and Xianghua as the center of a specific game in the series, they are only considered the protagonist for that adventure because the directors said so.

SCV sold well enough despite being a literally unfinished game and abandoned by the FGC in 2 months.

Bamco just wants to focus on Tekken and then go for SCVI, Tekken Tag Tournament 2 sold less than the desired, beaten by SCV as a matter of fact, so they want to keep their main fighting series at separate release windows.

SCV might have shaken the community with differing opinions, but that doesn't matter to Bamco, what matters is copies sold and in that department it did not fail them, even the F2P trash that was Lost Swords was banking on the lewd DLCs in Japan, while faggots in the West went to Bamco's Facebook page to cry about Hilda wearing skimpy armor.

Not gonna happen since all these fighters with focused Story Modes have attracted a new kind of audience to fighters, the FGC can cry out "Fucking Casuals!" as much as they want, doesn't change the fact this makes more potential sales to fall onto the Publisher's lap.

That and the shitstorm surrounding SFV's lack of content, Bandai Namco won't allow another unfinished Soul Calibut to be release before its the right time.

You obviously weren't here when either SCV or SFV came out.

No. It was the most structured character creator in the series, due to how organized it was in comparison with SCIV and SCV. The body-slider tool being 'the only additional' programme worth mentioning after SCIII.

3 had the best singleplayer mode and some of the more amusing costumes available with the character creator, along with 'unique' weapon styles for custom characters.

5 has by far the best mechanics and is utterly robust in terms of its systems. It's a glorious thing to play. But yeah, just as others have said, the game wasn't finished - there was barely anything to do aside from beat the shit out of people, online or otherwise. (The netcode was also massively improved over 4.)

If they ever make a 6, then I hope they include a Chronicles of the Sword mode for SP enthusiasts as well as retaining the refined combat systems from 5. That'd be perfect. Give me that and I don't need any shitty arcade story routes, just multi and CotS.

Not him, but I have never seen the elitist side go "BAN STORY MODE" or "WHO NEEDS THAT?" as a game comes along in development or at release. That makes no sense.

FGC has never ever complained about the presence of a story mode. You can't come up with a single scenario where this is true unless the game is already a piece of shit like MKX.

To be honest I played Soul Caliber mainly in the arcade.

Soul Caliber 2's conquest mode was the coolest shit. Save your stats for later, win/loss record that can be affected by people challenging your ghost, etc. It's been over 10 years but we still remember our time with the game fondly.

Rarely is that ever the case, most people simply just agree that when there is a heavy story focus that the multiplayer content can end up suffering as a whole.

>>342142976
Gave a good example, where people cite SFV was a bad game (at start) because it was barebones; this is a fact.

Others jumped up saying that the only fault was that the game didn't have some kind of story / arcade mode and people responded mentioning that shit like Arcade Mode and time attack aren't played past the first month so a game that was released prematurely obviously wouldn't have them, and that fighting games rarely focus story so you should have known better than to expect that, especially when all you had to do was youtube "Street Fighter V modes" and you'd instantly know what you were in for.

Also if you want to see worthless single player modes that wasted dev time, a perfect example is SSB4's "Smash Tour" as a worst case scenario.

You might want to go try it again III's again and then compare it to some of V's creations. I got extremely indepth with SCV's character creator (especially with the textures and inanimate objects) and it's INSANE with what all you can accomplish.

III has several more parts but that's about it.

I made a mistake there. I meant to refer to modes other than the standard versus; going back to the SFV example, but I put that like a dumbass. The point I'm trying to make is, story and other modes aren't bad, but we should also consider how long these modes would be played unless the player is forced to play them to unlock other content.

Hope that clears it up.

You eat a counterhit if you get hit while moving in 5, no only in CH damage but in CH properties, which makes the game much stiffer as the prefered defensive method is to sit still and block.
In the older games you could sidestep, jump, etc. and move more freely.

Only if you predict wrong as it should be. They have always aimed for: verticals whiff, horizontals counter, kicks are a mixed bag.

In SC2 there was no such case. You could step guard and NEVER care what move they were using unless if they were extremely quick, leading to bad character balance since some of them just didn't have the option to deal with such a broken mechanic.

True, very true. I'd definitely play SCV if I had a PS3. At the same time though, it's kind of funny how I'm playing SC3 in 1440p, basically double the resolution of SCV's 720p on console. I'm hoping so badly the next SC hits PC, which is likely considering Tekken 7 will be on PC. SC3 definitely helps tide me over though, even though I've played it hundreds of hours.

I mean, I'm sure there was a PC game before 2005 with better fire effects, but seeing this stage and its godly fire effects as a 14 year old was mind blowing.

He even made it to the arcade release of 3 with Amy and Hwang but then he was scrapped again.

I don't dislike Elvis (there's nothing there to dislike... Or like, the guy is 100: cardboard) but Li Long is the original nunchaku guy and I'll always like him better.

Also, Dragon's call. Fucking god tier BGM right there.

I don't know, I liked the vibrant colors of the first 3. I mean Tekken slightly retained their colors, SC5 took too much realism for their art style, I can't handle the gray

I love how he out-douchebags even Raphael. Between his antics and his moveset he's my favorite SC fighter hands down.

My wish is your command! Ivy is such a top-tier waifu. Soul Calibur and Street Fighter are two of the very few Japanese games that have attractive females with thick thighs and supple buttocks.

I thought Kilik was the main character when I was young because of how heroic this theme sounded. Still sounds great all this time later.
