If people le are shitting on the artstylr because "lol sjw tumble" or whatever they're not to be taken seriously despite what they want. That acronym nowadays is only used by chuds and scum who just want to be bigots

Anyway yeah the best I can hope for is either a patch or DLC that adds in playable SOR 4 Max, Shiva and Estel.

The pink and white biker babes give me the most shit since even after they come to a stop from their tackle, their attack's hitbox seem to still be active a second after they stop moving.

SUPER Extra Thicc.

Yes I absolutely love the female character design. It demolishes the silhouette test easy.

I really dig the new look for the Garnet/Ruby enemies. It's just classic punk style.

Yeah. I could go for a playable version of the SUPER THICC biker gals as well, just for a laugh.

As far as gameplay, I'd probably still give it to Remake in terms of depth, and I do think the lack of run and roll functions for all characters are a bit weakness, but its solid otherwise. I was iffy on the special attack/health system at first and grew to like it eventually.

Really hope some of the bosses like Estel become playable via DLC. It'd be waste to have designs that good and not put them to even further use.

I'm not about to dump the remake either just because SOR 4 is now an actual thing, it does its own thing and it does it well. I also like how it promoted one random mook to playable status. Rudra I'm a biiiiiit on the fence about tho.

[up] Remake kind of feels like the proverbial AM 2 R to 4's Samus Returns. The first is trying to do the best possible combination of the first three games and expanding on its core elements while the latter is more about moving into new directions and evolving the base formula.

Shiva's clones reminds me of the Rudra fight.

Yeah, but at least Shiva's clones don't explode when he's low on health and he doesn't punk you out in the post-fight cutscene.

I also remember how that old Streets of Rage Saga fanfic portrayed him and Rudra as sisters. I guess it kinda works and fits but I find it too cheesy to be effective and it owkr sbetter if they're just separate assassin types. Then again Rudra's a fan character.

Since the game is 10 years after the third one, I wonder how Skate would look now.

Eddie was a teenager in 2 so he's only in his 20's now, it's not that bad. [lol]

But hopefully we'll find out.

As for the remake comparisons, I say 4 maintains the spirit of the series better. I do love remake, but stuff like the Bloodier and Gorier presentation and Rudra's whole "better than you" shtick seem like they belong in a different game.

I do hope 4 adds more modes and stuff, it's replayable for sure but it doesn't have the cavalcade of extra battles I want from a beat'em'up.

#193: May 3rd 2020 at 5:08:37 PM

Yeah both have their place. The remake basically combines almost everything as one thing and throws in fan elements like Rudra. SOR 4 sticks to the core formula and tweaks it while adding subtle new things here and there.

@Shirow: to be fair, SORR does let you turn off the blood and dismemberments, bringing it back to a mostly PEGI 12 violence rating.

the gemstone gals are more or less similar to their original BK 3 designs, but yeah I always liked their look. They're more spunky though in the face and have a scar now.

I love not only Estel's design, but her walk animation too. So much swagger lol.

The female designs are all excellent. Well wait, I don't care for how Cherry's hair shaded as it looks like a paint gradient was applied but she's still a solid design.

Just beat this game tonight. I'm mixed on it, to be honest.

Whoever suggested the idea of certain enemies and bosses having super armor needs to be fired immediately. I'm not really a fan of the slower pace or regressing to Streets of Rage 2's combat style. Blaze and Adam are fun to play as, Axel and Cherry are kind of on the okay side, and Floyd? Don't really like him all that much. He's like Max in that he's way too slow to even be useful.

Don't Press Your Luck too many times in life. You'll just get whammied.

[up][up]Probably the most consistent complaint I've seen by really hardcore fans is that it seems to play more like a Final Fight game than a So R at times, superarmor included.

Floyd is one of the best characters in the game. People need to realize that speed is not the end all be all of stats. I even think it's a bit overrated considering how neutral jump can give you i-frames enough to avoid a number of attacks(like barbon's spin kick) as well as throws and how axel/floyd can use their air specials to move around. Between crowd control and mobility, at least in this game's case, I'd choose the former.

The armor is to prevent cheesing bosses/over aggression from players(a mistake I see from too many) and isn't that big of an issue. In fact I feel the older games were worse in having moments where bosses were invincible or just out prioritize your attacks with their own. Play some more and you'll get better at avoiding enemy moves which makes the game more fair than you think.

[up]I disagree with this and people really need to go back and play the older games because the i-frame abuse by bosses was WORSE in general. There are times where whether or not you even hit or grab an enemy can feel like a crapshoot...looking at you R. Bear.

Yeah, i-frames are pretty important in games like this. throws have just as much i-frames as defensive specials, which is why Floyd and Cherry aren't actually that bad, they got a good amount of necessary I-frames and Cherry's got some decent combo potential. And she's cute too!
