Because it looks good visually, not sure what you're referring to.

I find the lightning engine to be very weak, leaving this very drab London-like flat presentation. It's most noticeable in the world mode where he runs around. It's like there is no real strong light sources anywhere. A lot of RE Engine games have this problem IMO. DMC5 also had something similar that annoyed me.

I can agree with that, the lighting in pretty much all traditional fighting games is never especially impressive lol

Dino

Motherfucking

Crisis

I never got into Dino Crisis honestly. Mainly due to me being so deep into Resident Evil and then the Squaresoft Renaissance of the 90's/Early 2000's hit.

I'd 100% say they are still worth playing even today if you have the means to do so.

But also bear in mind I'm hugely biased because they are some of my favourite games from my childhood.

 

[Low Moral Fibre]

Capcom really dominating these days.

The worst Capcom game I've played in years was RE Village and even that was brilliant.

 

[12Goblins]

dam.... street fighter is back

 

[DavidGzz]

Most consistent dev with the most diverse lineup of games ever? Capgods.

 

[Comandr]

You love to see it. Can't wait to dive in.

 

[splattered]

Even with the high review scores i'm still hesitant to pick this one up for some reason... street fighter has always been one of my favorite game series since i was a kid playing OG SF2 in the arcades. I just can't trust this entry for some reason. I have more faith in Tekken 8 at this point. :/

 

[SCB3]

Gotta love Capcom. Can't stop winning.

They really are, the last bad game was what? RE6?

 

[Flutta]

not sure if reviewers can be trusted with this one… from everything i’ve seen on this game has been mid to cringe to trash.

Ye not falling for it.. nice try tho

 

[Miyazaki’s Slave]

 

[adamsapple]

Capgod strikes yet again.

 

[nbkicker]

The only thing im getting nervous about is why capcom has stopped reviewers from saying about extra costumes and colour for the charachters, i can smell a outcry come fri when they are put behind a payment

 

[TheKremlinBossMan]

I expected this to review well but not this well. I personally think the game is a 90 but am happy it is reviewing as well.

 

[adamsapple]

FYI, looks like the PC version has some issues

 

[YCoCg]

Told you all this was going to be the next Street Fighter III.

 

[Gaiff]

Will get it but man do I hate that ugly-as-sin art style.

 

[jshackles]

I'm not a huge fan of fighting games, and NEVER play online. The few modern fighting games I've enjoyed, I've only played for the single player modes and the story.



This review put this game solidly on my radar.

 

[Shubh_C63]

Yeah thought so. Didn't get the pages and pages of gaf people saying game was trash.

Amount of work going in this game makes even a casual appreciate it.

 

[DeepEnigma]

Did not expect these scores, especially with the awful looking World Tour cringe.

I guess the core fighting aspect as stellar. Capcom stays delivering the past two gens.

 

[Dr. Claus]

Pages and Pages? You mean the same small circlejerk of 10-12 users? They have been harping on SF6 even before it was announced. They never wanted the game to be good or bad, they just wanted a place to bitch/moan.

 

[saintjules]

Not surprising.

 

[Nvzman]

Will get it but man do I hate that ugly-as-sin art style.

I actually like it, it's definitely better than SFV which was astonishingly ugly and imo better than SFIV as well. I just never liked the cartoony art style for 3D SF. This game actually looks good (in fights at least) and not goofy.

 

[nbkicker]

Not surprising.

Strange he struggling to get decent visuals knocking all the settings down to display at 1080 to get solid 60fps in arcade, in both betas and demo with my 4080 i had screen set to max settings on everything and at 4k and was solid 60fps in arcade, mind u just realised he playing on a laptop.

 

[Bruno_Arrais85]

Game is ugly as sin but the gameplay seems decent enough.

 

[Futaleufu]

Told you all this was going to be the next Street Fighter III.

Street Fighter III was a failure

 

[Tsaki]

With Resident Evil, Monster Hunter, Devil May Cry and now Street Fighter, it seems that Capcom has amassed top talent in its internal teams. Dragon's Dogma 2 will be a banger.

 

[S0ULZB0URNE]

Capcpom keeps on winning.

What

 

[amigastar]

Game is ugly as sin but the gameplay seems decent enough.

Yeah, the graphics are disappointing tbh. Which sucks because the game itself seems very good.

 

[YCoCg]

Street Fighter III was a failure

Exactly, but it's well regarded now as one of the best, this will be the same, people here hate it now but give it a few years and they'll look back on it and say how it was actually good.

 

[Danjin44]

Yeah, the graphics are disappointing tbh. Which sucks because the game itself seems very good.

Maybe my "standard" for graphics is different than most people but I would say the visuals looks pretty good.

Then again people also rage on about graphics in RE4R before the game was coming out but I liked visuals in RE4R a lot.

 

[SkylineRKR]

Might bite. I apparently had 5k points from Stars, which i used for a 20 bucks voucher. With this discount I might get SFV.

Idk, the graphics seem so washed out to me. I was expecting to be more vivid also the clothes shader doesn't look as good as the skin shader.

 

[yurinka]

Love to see these reviews. It's going to be the most successful and popular SF (not counting arcade version) ever by any metric.

ONIMUSHA REVIVAL PLZ

It's coming

 

[yurinka]

we have to demand better graphics from these next gen games

I'm a bit surprised how few reviews are criticizing its visuals.

It's a crossgen game, not a next gen only game. You may have prefered another artstyle, but it does great the artstyle they choosed. And also performs great even in PS4 and potato pcs.

The only thing you could criticize of these visuals is that you'd personally -af it's my case- have prefered a different artstyle.

Will have to read some reciews and see whats meant to be so good about it

Basically all of them say that it's an excellent game in all areas and both for unskilled newbies and seasoned hardcore competitive players.

The only exception being the -optional- rpg lite story tutorial extra bonus mode, which is enterely optional. They say it isn't as polished as the rest of the game but still a great addition specially for casual rookies.

FYI, looks like the PC version has some issues

World Tour runs in the demo and benchmark works well on my GTX1070 laptop.

Maybe there's some bug specific of their hardware or some area of the game, or they made a terrible choice with their settings, or they had a potato PC older than mine. If it's a bug, let's hope they hopefully in the day one patch.

 

[sekmitarz]

Does any review mention Series S performance? Demo looked terrible on Series S

 

[Labolas]

Eventhubs review is up:

A near perfect fighting game that makes the future of the genre look bright — Street Fighter 6 review

www.eventhubs.com

Eh, Eventhubs is really biased towards SF. Hell, I remember a time when they almost exclusively did articles on just Street Fighter and Capcom adjacent fighting games. They clearly have a slight towards particular fighting games.

 

[bbw_lover87]

Thats what im waiting for too the demo looked fugly on series s

I totally forgot it was cross gen.

 

[Captain Toad]

Within a couple months, of which is usually the dead part of the year for gaming, we are getting/have gotten Tears of the Kingdom, Street Fighter 6, Diablo 4 and Final Fantasy XVI.

And people still complain that no good games ever come out.

And Re4 remake, Hogwarts, Dead Space shortly before these. What a year so far.

They already had an online beta that was open to everyone.

That was a great way to see just how amazing this entry is

 

[splattered]

I completely skipped the beta... So no idea

 

[SF Kosmo]

I almost never get fighting games at launch, but the high reviews and the amount of single player content might be enough.

 

[93xfan]

Already pre-ordered, but so glad to hear it!

Anything info on whether classic costumes are paid DLC?

 

[manfestival]

Great scores this could turn into one of the best fighting games of modern times.

Haters have taken a massive L

My free time is also taking a massive L

 

[yurinka]

I got the PC version in cdkeys.com because it was cheaper there, but seems they won't reveal the code until June 2.

Do you know if cdkeys.com has a specific hour of the day to drop the preordered games?

 

[shoplifter]

Exactly, but it's well regarded now as one of the best, this will be the same, people here hate it now but give it a few years and they'll look back on it and say how it was actually good.

I'm not gonna lie, the very limited time I got with the game absolutely reminded me of playing SFIII, in a very good way.

 

[Puscifer]

I'm going to wait and see, their monetization around Street Fighter 5 was enough for me to bow out. That entire games purpose was to be nothing more than a store front.

I loved the betas and demo but I can wait
