This is very, very attractive
From the art style to the gameplay to the concept, it just seems like a great overall package.
It's only missing cards and cheevos =P
Agreed. Wish listing this.

SG is the spiritual successor to DS' animation, if you look carefully at every frame by frame of DS, you'll see its concept used in SG.
Then elaborate on why it's bad, just saying it's bad doesn't tell anyone anything @_@

The artstyle is terrible and no amount of in-between frames can make up for it.

bad as in "the art style is not appealing to me", I would guess.
I keep re-reading that... but all I that keeps registering is:
That and, y'know, that animation quality isn't necessarily tied to artstyle. Something can still be well animated, even if it isn't visually appealing to you.

all my loli wolf companions are so moe
Yeah but it lacks the DS personality. In SG it's all snarky doom and gloom and internet memes. And mimicking Melty Blood clones.
DS has genuine doom and gloom and genuine comedy without all the snark or memes.
that's not even the best ds gif
not even SG can top dis

SkullGirls has quite the fan-following, so they must have done some things right but the artstyle reminds me of 10s-30s drawings which bring up very bad emotions in me.
That doesn't answer the question; what about it don't you like
You just repeated what what you posted before.
If the combo of pretty looking characters+body horror and freaky animations creep you out, well...that's intentional bruv~
It's ugly. Everything from the thick lines to the color palette to overall character design is just really off-putting to me.
It's a game from the creator of Silence of the Sleep, Jesse Makkonen .
GO WISHLIST IT NOW!

I went to youtube and the animation looks kinda jerky, can't tell which move does what - something just happens lol.

Different times sadly, if they made a new DS nowadays they'd play up the sexiness of the female cast (i blame PXZ for that :V)
Everything is a product of its time.

SG has some really neat animations still though

Actually it is it's 30s style animation merged with modern "cool" sensibilities that I don't like.
A purer retro artstyle, like Cuphead has, appeals a lot more to me.
I think Cuphead looks amazing, because its true to its influences. Skullgirls artstyle seems half-assed to me, like half the art team wanted a retro style, and half wanted to do a modern pixel art fighter, so they met somewhere in the middle.
A few of the characters looks good though.
Also calling someones opinion terrible is a dick move. You are terrible.

Your opinion is terrible if you don't know what you are talking about. There was a lead animator and a lead character designer, the characters are made to be referenced to old cartoons and old fighting game characters. The characters in skullgirls are also made to look vastly different from one another to avoid characters to also look like clones and have some uniqueness to them.
Retro style? They would have actually made a sprite based fighter if they wanted that. You can not like the character designs and think they are bad but, one thing they aren't are half assed.
So yes your opinion is fucking awful.

That isn't my point. You can not like the artstyle but saying they half assed it is wrong. Especially when people put a bunch of work into making these characters and assets.

30 for Indivisible? Think i'll wait on pledging unless it needs help reaching the goal. Was expecting some sort of launch discount.
I wasn't (because Ravidrath already said there wouldn't be one in the Indivisible thread yesterday or the day before) but given they charge you right away, I'll probably only pledge toward the end.

I really hope Them Fighting Herds makes it to funding. It's sitting at 55% funded with 17 days left.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.

The regular ass air mags came out a couple years ago in the form of a charity auction but yeah the self-lacing ones are apparently coming still
Transformers is out tomorrow and still no delivery date let alone a dispatch email. I get the feeling I'm going to end up somewhat disappointed here.
I'll think you'll find my birthday was a few months ago.

Happy belated b-day to the 5th sexiest SteamGAFfer of them all!
Amazon and £17.30 (though I used Amazon credit so technically nothing because they sure love to fuck up every other order I place with them and shower me with £5 for using shit couriers).
If this isn't a rehash or 1 HDier then I'll have this all over my face please Yves.
Grrrrrrrrrr!!! Just noticed your a Memb- again now, congrats.
I ordered the physical version on Amazon.de and it says release date is November 13th. Their supply channels must be backed up for awhile.
it's a crime to work on your birthday. I hope you get to celebrate well after it's all over.

This looks really really nice. Plus the concept of going through space to different hulks makes more rouge-like sense than having a new dungeon conjure up around you.
