I think the cool bro and cute waifu archetype is already well covered, so catering to those not catered yet doesn't sound so terrible to me.
I keep seeing this, but has anyone actually been saying otherwise? Honest question.

Doesn't work like that, some frames use completely different models used just for said frame, it's not realistic to make unique models for each frame in 60fps animation and leaving them as is would make them stand out compared to the rest of the animation. They set out to capture a certain art style and built everything in the game around it, simply trying to change that now would bring more faults than what ever the change would fix!I really wish ArcSys gave an option to have the full frames or the low key frames available for the player to decide.
Capcom can release all the crappy new characters they want (not saying Abigail is), but they should expect the backlash if they are still holding out on fan favourites like Sakura and Sagat, who should have been in the base roster.

I still don't understand comments like this. So if Sakura and Sagat were in the game Capcom wouldn't be getting the backlash? It would be the same thing. If they put out a trailer for Sagat the response would probably be "Oh man, I love Sagat. Too bad SFV sucks still lol."
It's basically a meme to dunk on this game now, regardless of what happens with it. Whether or not they should have been in the base roster is a whole other thing. Personally I could do with less shotos and more original designs, but to each their own.
What dithering?SFV's awful hair, including the animation, the terrible dithering, bland UI, along with a lot of it's art direction don't have it anywhere near 3S.
Abigail is just poorly timed and a bad idea to spring right now with so many other fighting games dropping megaton character additions. They were needing to put a face up there that stated what the game was becoming to draw in folks away from the competition. Instead they came across as more niche and uncool than ever by putting a niche and uncool character up against a market flooding with stylish cool character expansions.
Think of it like this. SFV went up last in announcements then said "Why play that when you could have THIS." Then they played an ugly joke character making vroom vroom noises acting like a toddler. Not a good way to look.
Check back when Menat is shown to see the differenceI keep seeing this, but has anyone actually been saying otherwise? Honest question.
I liked the character design. Hopefully Capcom continues to make SFV diverse.
What is this concern trolling. It's ironic when you say a character from a SNK game, which let's face it, are not doing very well sales wise, a couple niche anime games that hardly sets the world on fire and a SFEX HD reskin that looks very barebones will "bring about the most sales" since they are the "low minority of market interest". No company should try to pander to a larger demographic at the expense of a smaller one and I'm glad Capcom are continuing that philosophy with this season. Also Abigail is an original character who is cool as fuck that has a lot of charm and personality that makes him unique, and so far, looks FUN to play as. That's all that matters.
Still the worst character design in Street Fighter history.
nt tho Capcom (not)

Dithering got fixed in the last big patch... On PS4 anyway, was never a problem on PC if you had the specs.
And if they had all returning characters people would bitch that it's "Just like SF4" or "rehashing SF2" or whatever and demand new characters.
Can't win.
Again people hating just because agendas
I was discussing this with some friends this week when once of them said they wanted more old characters back first. I said they if Capcom does that they'll get shit on for not innovating with their characters, but if they introduce a bunch of new characters they'll get crap for not bringing back an OG first. Each OG char has fans, so someone out there is always gonna be saying "Hey why isn't _____ in it!?"
All that being said, people are free to dislike new characters. There's no need to approve of them simply because they're new. This is the first new char where I've personally been like nah this is dumb, and I don't see anything wrong with that. Time will tell if he turns out to be awesome, but for now I'm not digging him.

lol what. Even the POTUS thinks this? Must be true then. I'm not from the US the way as we would never vote for a POS like that as our head of state. Thank god.
Everything about you is perfect.Abigail owns and I am getting back into sf5 because of him
People who do not like Abigail, I will pray for your black soul at church

The same craving for OGs are the same clamouring 3rd Strike is the second coming of Jesus. The irony.
LolWhat a surprise, Trump hating on Mexicans again
That weeb game with the X looks better but it's still pretty good.Abigail rules haters be damned. Also SFV is the best looking fighter out right now.

He has moves where he just flicks you in the face and also walks on top of you.
I love him!
