Zangief

Necalli

Nash

F.A.N.G

Karin

 

[ImSooFlye]

Can't wait to play nash

 

[Jimmyfenix]

still not sold on Necalli but the rest are looking great

 

[fluffydelusions]

Karin pls

 

[SolarPowered]

That Nash video taught me jack shit about him outside of his awesome V-Skill. Gonna stick with my girl, Karin tho.

 

[Outrun]

I was trying to play Nash like Guile in the beta....

Now I know better!

 

[Neoxon]

It's weird how the announcer mispronounced Ryu.

Officially from Capcom, but this cat still saying Rye-U like it's the 90's?

 

[Zyrox]

"Rye-oo"

"Rye-oo"

*uppercut*

These vids are good. Can't wait for the Rashid one that just says he's the best ever

He seems to change his mind at the end of the Ken video.

 

[Mechanized]

Rye-You sounds better so it's the cannon pronunciation. Sorry.

 

[RK9039]

Nash my main man.

Rye-You sounds better so it's the cannon pronunciation. Sorry.

Agreed, Van Damme Fighter was cannon after all.

 

[spindashing]

Rye-You sounds better so it's the cannon pronunciation. Sorry.

Maybe if you were stuck in the 90s

 

[Holy Order Sol]

Rye-You sounds better so it's the cannon pronunciation. Sorry.

cannon as in that shit gets you shot

 

[SpiceMelange]

Rye-You sounds better so it's the cannon pronunciation. Sorry.

Maybe for native English speakers, but as a French Canadian Rye-you is piss in my ears. Just makes me think of Rye bread. If there's one thing I like about my native tongue it's that bar the R/L sound, French and Japanese pronunciation are pretty much the same.

 

[Zombegoast]

Can't wait to learn that 3 bar combo from Charlie without the annoying online matches.

 

[Pachimari]

It's weird how the announcer mispronounced Ryu.

He pronounced it two different ways lol.

 

[Sanctuary]

I can't believe after all of this time, anyone is still calling Ryu "Rye-You", especially a Capcom representative. I mean...just ugh.

 

[Garrett Hawke]

When Gief's skin goes red he looks like he's nude, wearing only a belt and shoes

 

[Sanctuary]

Pretty sure that's how he "wrestled" bears.

 

[13randO]

Gief has achieved second gear since SF4.

 

[spindashing]

Gief has achieved second gear since SF4.

This almost makes me want to use Gief haha

 

[RK9039]

Jet Cyclone.

 

[mnz]

Not really feeling those, they feel...lackluster? Maybe that's enough for the average consumer, I don't know.

 

[sixteen-bit]

When's Laura?

 

[BY2K]

I really hope this is fake.

It's already been discussed in the big SFV thread and most feel that it comes down to how inconsistent Bengus' art is in those story panels. For example look at how light Laura looks in that link you posted, now here she is in another piece of Bengus art

 

[Grakl]

Necalli unlocking the shackles on his dreads is what powers him up, holy shit lmao

Thank God.

 

[jon bones]

real dope series, hype for this game is too high

Yall better hope

Edit: Wait a min his art so inconsistent his hair gone? lol

 

[-Pyromaniac-]

In the Ken video he says Ree-you and Rye-you.

Also Ken looks like a monster if your execution with the buttons is masterful.

 

[SolidSnakex]

Yall better hope

Edit: Wait a min his art so inconsistent his hair gone? lol

It's still there. But yes, Bengus' art is incosistent that he'll draw a character with two different hair colors

Notice that Vega's hair is blonde until it gets to his ponytail, which is brown for whatever reason.

 

[Dark Ninja]

He seems to have a problem with pronunciation. I can't wait till he gets to Karin. Where's Combofiend.

 

[JumpCancel]

Why Play Ken?

ᴮᵉᶜᵃᵘˢᵉ ʰᵉ'ˢ ᶜᵒᵒᶫ⋅

 

[abstract alien]

I've only watched the Ken video, but that was bad. The guy is trying to describe things and the footage shows something completely different.

"If you use Ken's Ex Hurricane as someone throws a fireball, you can attack them before they can recover"
*shows clip of Ken doing a CA on Vega, who doesn't even have a fireball*


They did the same thing while talking about using his V-Skill.


Edit: The Zangief video seems better.

 

[Durden77]

I will take all the SF5 media I can get right now.

 

[SatelliteOfLove]

Awaiting FANG stuff since his reveal trailer.

Rye-You sounds better so it's the cannon pronunciation. Sorry.

Oh Ryu.

 

[Durden77]

Need to he in the lab with Nash...NOW. Loved him in the beta but his video has gotten me even more excited.

 

[UnemployedVillain]

Rye-You sounds better so it's the cannon pronunciation. Sorry.

You have bad opinions and you should feel bad about them

It's Mare-ee-oh bad

Notice that Vega's hair is blonde until it gets to his ponytail, which is brown for whatever reason.

It's stylized highlights...his hair is all the same color

 

[enzo_gt]

Not very fond of these video as they're not very informative or enticing, frankly they're so broad strokes I think the announcement trailers do a better job at trying to show and explain how a character plays.

Someone pointed out in the comments on one of them that the commentary does not match up with the footage at all, which seems like a bit of a missed opportunity.

I noticed this as well; the clips they choose inevitably show what they talk about but often it's many seconds after they're done describing it. Just seems like poor editing.

 

[sixteen-bit]

"Rye-oo"

I like how the announcer said both Rai-you and Ree-you in the same video lmao

His hair is not there anymore

 

[kodecraft]

Can't wait for the Guile v Nash Civil War. Guile hopefully is a defensive force packing power like Ryu while Nash is just stylish and mobile but weaker like he's always been.

Also bring in DJ also, for an epic 3-way

 

[bangbang i'm a timpani]

why are these so awkward. nothing happens for the first 20 seconds, then they have a british guy read a script like he's seeing it for the first time.

go compare this to what riot does for LOL or the dota cinema character overviews. way better.

hopefully DLC characters are given more fanfare
