So... what do you guys think of Abigail's character story?

Personally, I found it to be "meh". I understand that they wanted to go for something more 'light' and 'humorous' but Abigail doing the vroom vroom thing like he was trying to speak "car engine" hoping his car would answer back is just.... I mean, really?

The only things I actually liked about his story were Alex's banter (It made legit crack a smile) and the cameos of the J, Axl and Roxy (love it when they keep it consistent) at the end.

He's definitely gotten bigger since his first appearance. Puts Hugo to shame.

He not only puts Hugo to shame in the muscle department, but also in the smarts as well. You see, contrary to his story potrayal, Abigail's winquotes show him to be more akin to a a jock with crude humor. He's not the usual big, potato brain guy. You can see in the way he adresses Alex, Urien and Akuma that he's not naive or overtly childish.

Perphas said winquotes portray him as how he is AFTER the character story, or maybe just having his car stolen gets the best of him. This is just a theory, mind you.

So I recently found this at the SF story thread at the SRK forums:

Spoiler

Great_Dark_Hero: I agree on the notions above. What would you guys change to make them a bit more... relevant to the actual plot?

More specifically, making it so that the shotos are written better into the main idea revolving around preventing M. Bison's schemes?

Shockdingo: I don't know what I'd do with Ryu to make him more relevant. The original idea of Bison killing Gouken could have done it and been interesting, if not typical.

For Ken in SF3 era, I think it was Yagami, said that having Ken discover Illuminati roots in his family and having him and Necro encountering each other could make for some great moments. I feel like that would be a great way to make him relevant to the story and not be in Ryu's shadow forever.

YagamiFire: Yup. That was my story pitch.

Have Ken trace back money and holdings in his family to the Illuminati (who are still entrenched in the Masters Foundation and siphoning funds, etc) and start to investigate them. This leads to a confrontation with Necro. Necro & Ken would get character development as they both actually fight for loved ones and not for themselves (Ken for his family, Necro for Effie). You'd also get some good friction between them because Ken is a rich kid born with everything and Necro is a poor kid born with nothing. So they have stuff in common while still being very much opposites. Interestingly, Ken would also see that Necro is a lot like himself when he was young...fiery, hot-tempered and eager to prove himself. Necro doesn't have the mooring of a rivalry with someone like Ryu though...which means Necro is in danger of going too far.

Eventually Necro would also discover that Ken's family (not just his company) is tied to the Illuminati itself and would get very heated about this which leads to another confrontation between the two since Necro would naturally be very distrustful of ANYONE with blood ties to the Illuminati.

For context, the "notions above" are about people saying that the shotos feel somewhat forced whithim the Shadaloo side of the story.

Also, acoording to outdated suplementary material, it was teased that Ryu, Ken and Dictador shared the same master, obviously this is no longer truth.

http://forums.shoryuken.com/discussion/c...t_11388790

So what do you guys think of this? Personally, I would like to see this idea become a reality.

Can't say I have that good an understanding of SF lore, but that'd be pretty cool.

Super Saiyan Blue Goku and Vegeta confirmed as new characters. Android 18 and 16 confirmed as new characters.
18 uses 17 in one of her combos so he is unlikely to be joining the fray.

Androiad 16 plays a prominent role in the game's "what-if" story mode.

Capcom rearranged Chun-Li's face.

30 playable characters at launch for infinite.

SFV 30th Anniversary Costumes Coming Aug. 29th

SNK producer claims many new fighting games are in development

Garou: Mark of The Wolves 2 should be their main priority. Why? Simple math:

Amount of time people have been waiting for Garou 2: 18 years

Amount of time people have been waiting for Half-Life 3: 10 years

It's not rocket science. Garou 2 should come first; before KOF XV or a new Samsho.

So, what are your whishes for the 30th anniversary of the Street Fighter series? The only thing I want for it is a retooled version of that one Street Fighter title that ACTUALLY needs it, you know, that one (from 7 months ago):

(01-18-2017, 05:04 PM)ZpaceJ0ck0 Wrote: ^ Fun character or not, I still believe that another version of SF2 was completely unnecesary. And for those out there asking, no, I wasn't joking when I said I wanted a SFI update/remake on the Nintendo Switch thread, with SFII gameplay and with every character being playable.

- The game is barely playable
- Moves only come out when they feel like coming out
- Only one playable character with a clone for versus mode
- Has a couple of characters that were never playable and probably never will (Retsu, Geki, Joe...)
- It'd be interesting to see a version of SFI that plays well
- Good way to celebrate the 30th anniversary
- We could play as Eagle again

I understand that it was Capcom's first attempt at a fighting game (and a rather primitive one at that), and that people probably didn't mind about the controls back then. But SFII (a game that is already competent by itself) has tons of updates, that improved upon an already good game, and SFI (a game that would greatly benefit from an update) has none.

There is a MUGEN game that sort of did this, but I'd like to see an official version of it.

Looks like I'm asking for too much.

That's literally the only wish I have for the 30th anniversary, for real.

What about you, guys?

Having never played SF1, I have no desire to play it as it is. SF2 was great fun and if they could do something at least like SF2, that would be great.

Normally I would put this on the youtube videos thread or the sports one, but since the general theme of the each video ties to Tekken and this being endorsed by Namco themselves.... yeah, I think this place is fitting.

the three videos

As a straight man myself I must admit that Eric can give Cammy a run of her money in the ass department.

What, why are you looking me like that? I mean, have you SEEN it?!

I'm bringing this up because I just found out that Eric released another training video, this one focusing on Systema Kettlebell Workout (aka the kind of training that Sergei Dragunov himself problably goes trought on a daily basis... actually I think his training regime is way harder than this, LOL).
