Kayane's Video Interview with Tago-san!

I've already said this in the Tira forums, but the random and self-damaging mechanic can stay now that there are brave edges that use meter. You can use soul guage on powered up moves that guarantee a stance change or do not deal self damage. The self damage aspect isn't as bad now that meter is introduced, especially if they keep the bonus 1 level of meter on every match point.

Ah, so Soul Calibur will also get continuous balance patches. Sounds good to me. And I'm glad they are working to make their netcode as good as poosible, since that's really important for fighting games imo.

Now all that's left is the announcement of Seung Mina and I will be the happiest :).

hilde looks flashy as fark and zwei is looking awsome as usual new thing that were shown with him are
-he can create block strings with EIN and can a 3 hit combo before haveing to launch the opponent
-what looked like his 1a is disgustingly slow
-he has a low combo starter that takes meter(the stomp), also looked like if the opponent stays down after a combo it'll pop them of the ground so you may still combo(tech trap mixups!)
-Ein can do GB attacks
-Zwei GB doesn't knock down

god i want zwei inside me no homo

Not arguing. I'm curious how you can tell that it forces a fallen player back up? or are you talking about bouncing and juggling?

Great interview Kayane. It's good to hear that they're concentratin' on makin' this game good with a long competitive lifespan. Hopefully this wish'll actually come true.

I hope they revamp Tira. It would be cool if they made a deeper differentiation in her personalities fightin' styles, and make them both equally viable to use instead of her GS bein' way better than her JS. Maybe they could make her JS more like her SCIII iteration, and fully revamp her GS moveset? I think her life drainin' gameplay could stay...but it should be coupled with life regeneratin' moves a la Yoshi.

I hope "Kenny[]" plays more like his SCII iteration. That was his prime to me. He had good moves and way more fluid stance mobility than he has now.

I thought Maxi was best in SC3. My fav Maxi costume was the one in SC4 which was based on his 3rd outfit in SC1. Also, Tira was great in SC3. my fav costume there too, her first one. actually, her 2nd one had a nice goth/harley quinn attribute. Anyways, I thought that the only thing that improved in SC4 was Tira's personality (-ties). I had a blast going thru her bi-polar disorder. But no, it was a bad idea to make her lose life. I mean, even still, that's the price of serving evil, isnt it? Aside from that, her random stances didn't bother me. it was like a game unto itself. And her speach was hilarious!
