SDCC SoulCalibur Talk Summary

[linkorz]

Not sure what this talk of "begging" is about.

1. You aren't entitled to anything. It's entirely their prerogative to make another game or not.

2. They're hardly asking you to "beg". They've rather clearly already decided to make a new game, or else they wouldn't have done this whole 20th anniversary stuff. They're only asking people to spam the social media to draw attention to the series. It's a marketing ploy.

Well hell, the series needs attention. I'm game.

I suspect we'll see something (an actual something) closer to the end of these Facebook "activities". This comic-con thing seemed to be at odds with the timing of the Facebook page's revival. They'll lead us along to some event like TGS, Gamescom, Paris Games Week, PSX, or maybe even something beyond those. That's when they'll strike with the big one:

Lost Swords Remastered.​

Going to start myself in a moment, Wolf... AGAIN...

Well hell, the series needs attention. I'm game...

Word to that!

SEGA ignoring its older fanbase with Virtua Fighter and now Namco ignoring another part of its fanbase with Soul Calibur...Sad.

About that disappointment with the two companies...

Answer: VFvT: Tag Tournament -- OR ... NO ...
... you decide.
I don't have an answer for Calibur.

I've seen shitty PR. REALLY zhitty PR. But this... This is so Bamco-like I'm barely surprised.

"We've been ignoring you for years, never answering and dodging everything related to the thing you've all been asking. But now, we want you to beg like there's no tomorrow. C'mon, kneel, beg, obey."

You know what Bamco? Go eat some dirt and take your bloody game with you, I don't want Soulcalibur anymore. It's far too late.

Within some weeks, they'll go all "Ok since you have asked, Soulcalibur is back!" but they just want to see the community get humiliated.

Oh, really? Then why exactly do you say about them having the balls to ask us to "spread the name" when thats all the fanbase has done ever since the crap that was SCLS? They're asking people to do what they were already doing.

Its a problem though, that we can't even predict when that thing on the Facebook will end. Siegfried VS Z.W.E.I. took only a day, then they skipped a few days to Taki VS Natsu, but a day has already passed and the results weren't revealed. Also, SCLS Revamped wouldn't be a problem if they made it as a game, not a cash grab.
