I'm weirded out that the art actually looks decent.
Edit: Actually, skipping through the vid, it looks like the same piece of art with different dialogue and background. LOL
Not weirded out anymore.

See, if I ask for a ham sandwich, and I'm given a turkey sandwich, sure they're similar, but they're not the same thing. For all the people who think single player content is for whiny casuals, it's kind of confusing that they can't see the difference between one round matches mostly revolving around health management, and multiple round matches where health management isn't quite a crucial because it gets refilled the next round.

I'm weirded out by his fucked up posture.
And then pleasantly surprised by his amazing animations.
It depends on what you're looking for. The game has some ridiculous issues that are emblematic of a company in disarray, so if you're on the fence at all, hold your $60 until/IF Capcom gets their shit together. Even today I can't in good faith recommend the game to anybody who is not a hardcore FG player.
Someone please explain Alex's parry to me. Is it only in Vtrig? Successful parry refills meter while in Vtrig as well? How is it done?
Thanks. That's interesting. So you hold for the parry just like Ryu's, but if you hold longer after any single parry, you get the sledge hammer?

First you activate V-Trigger, then Hold HP+HK when holding it absorbs 1 hit, then you can release HP+HK to go neutral or Hold it to make the sledge hammer.
You you need to hold HP+HK again and release for each hit.
I don't agree I would recommend it to anyone that likes good fighting games. If they can get it for cheaper than 60 it's worth it.
Oh god, why does Ken look like something out of the One Punch Man web comic in that last panel?
Yeah, the select screen angle is really the biggest issue. I think if they just changed the way he was posing it'd improve dramatically.

We've come full circle.
Not quite, during his V-Trigger mode you can tap instead of hold his charging clothesline, take the guard point and then it resets to neutral, allowing you to do it again, I've tried it against other multi-hit attacks like Ken's HP dragon punch with success (it probably works like Ryu's parry in that regard).
It also replenishes a small bit of V-Trigger gauge when you do the parry.
Here was my attempt, only tried against the first half of Chun's CA. Watch the V-Gauge with each parry...

I remember that this was altered for the Genesis game. The black guy (Mike?) becomes white.

The demonstrations are exceptionally terrible, I'm shocked people are fine with them. How can they not let you try what they're showing you? What a dumb oversight, even the original tutorial let you do that. So good luck on the trials noobs because you gotta cancel in them and all the tutorial does is say "a cancel is this" but not much else, I'm sure it'd have been nice to try it out.
I expected a better teaching tool and I guess that was my bad.

And yet there's still no friggen DINPUT on PC.... and don't tell me to just use x360ce..
It was your bad at this point. It was as barebones as possible, no audio commentary, the editing is amateur, and there's really not even aesthetically appropriate text formatting. Do not expect anything above the bare minimum moving forward regarding this game. I think people are fine with them in the sense that "ok, we get it, this is how it's gonna be, at least I get free fight money by skipping this garbage." I don't think anybody really thinks they're of any value otherwise, I mean they don't even mention Cammy's hooligan, much less subtleties like normals, ideal punishes/punish ranges, etc.
At least the trials for some characters will give a beginner some idea of what is possible.

does that work on low normals?

Unless you're a die hard FGC member or street fighter fan your money is far better spent on MKxl or GGxrd imo.
hell sf4 on ps4 is a better purchase at the moment.
What's even more ridiculous is that you still can't rebind keyboard keys. Like... come on.

Fantastic.
Also, I was hoping Capcom was going to do like Arc System Works did with Xrd, where you got points for every trial you completed, instead of a lump sum once you beat them all.
Eh, I don't agree. Matters what they want. If they're serious about learning how to play a fighting game, and actually putting in the time and effort... then yes SFV is a good buy. If they're looking to be more casual, then yes the other two games might be more up their alley. Well maybe not Xrd, really Xrd for a casual?
How easy is it to parry? Is the timing close or loose? Can you be grabbed out of it? (Sorry if the questions are dumb, I only watch people play)

xrd is incredibly fun even if you are just mashing around.
casual = playing vs cpu, story and casual friends.
