Nice to see the classics back, hope Sagat's gameplay doesn't get reworked into something unrecognizable.

I mean, they can talk all they want about combo extenders and extra V-Triggers which only exacerbate the problem with the game that I still have(too rushdown heavy with very little options otherwise) but I still see nothing that makes it actually playing defensively is viable, nothing about the netcode getting fixed, nothing about the frames being changed from feeling too floaty, way too simplistic and no depth to the characters, etc.

None of what they showed so far is gonna change that it's still Street Fighter V and it's not gonna be fun to play. I mean people were bewildered to see Daigo winning with textbook fundamentals, and Capcom hasn't shown anything that suggests that it will be different. And lol at command grabs now having 70f on recovery, it makes total sense for quick grappler Alex to be that slow even though he's one of the worst in the game right now.

Also yeah netcode is overrated, guess it's easy to just say "oh we have rollback now" and have everyone believe that it's the best ever.

What do you think would have to happen for Capcom to truly redeem itself as far as Street Fighter V goes? You can't just say it's forever ruined because of its abysmal opening, poor promotion, or any combination thereof*. The reality of the matter is, nothing is ever perfect. We put so much pressure on these companies because we expect so much of them, from the characters to the game play and everything in between. If one single tiny microscopic little thing goes wrong, then all the pieces crumble like a Jenga building. That's the risk you take for creating video games.

If my fan game ever became acceptable, I would have to go through the same things Capcom went through. Because even a person like me can make mistakes.

* Internal office issues on the other hand, that I do understand. Covering the Donald Sterling scandal during my 2015 Clippers Season Wrap-Up podcast opened up my eyes to executive meddling. It can happen.

Nah, its looks way too diferent from Final Fight's G, Abigail still recognizable, just a bit different.

I've heard people saying that this is Greg from Bloody Roar, and it does looks a lot like him.
