Decent at best.
Shame Amy didn't make it into SC5.

it wasn't

i liked it, then again i think all numbered soulcalibers are great
even 3

It was the worst.

Can you still get the Yoda DLC on the PS3 version? I can't find it on PSN.

Soul Calibur 4 was the best fap

cuz it has best girl

Not as bad as vanilla SC3.
That was a truly awful game aside from the kickass campaign mode.

This game is solid. I really dont see any negatives about it. Someone enlighten me

The kickass campaign mode elevates it in my opinion above 4, which does nothing better than any other SC and does some things the worst.

Pretty damn sure he should already be in the roster from the beginning.

Thats not Heilda

Haven't played SC4 myself, so don't take it as the opinion of someone who actually dislikes it, but I've seen that people tend to say "THIS GAME IN THIS SERIES SUCKS" even if it's a solid game simply because it compares poorly to the others. So the game might be decent, but the other games are amazing, so SC4 sucks, etc

fuck, i meant to reply to

He was paid DLC on the PS3. Maybe you can still buy him through the in-game menus, unless they just went and unlocked him for everybody.

>Soul Blade/Edge
Lots of stupid shit but was overall a pretty good game, a nice start to the series.

>Soul Calibur
Fantastic game, fixed many of the problems with the first game and refined and expanded on many mechanics, looked absolutely amazing for its time.

>Soul Calibur 2
Horribly dumbed down version of SC1, focus on a "wider audience" gameplay depth was removed in favor of adding guest characters as a selling point, many bugs such as Gstep and 2G make this already painfully slow game even worse.

>Soul Calibur 3
HORRIBLE game received zero testing has even more bugs than SC2, completely unplayable mess. the Arcade Edition fixes most of these bugs and adds new characters.

>Soul Calibur 4
Fixed various problems with the series but added a retarded physics engine that had no place in a fighting game, this led to many infinite juggles and instant ring out combos.

>Soul Calibur 5
By far the best game in the series, goes back to its SC1 roots, ads depth and solid mechanics over stupid minigames, expands on many of the original mechanics, overall a great game.

Personal opinion, but it's also some time ago that I played it:
>worst character designs
>guest characters not well implemented, nobody cares about star killer
>little solo-content, and that there is isn't very good
>worst create-your-character, being forced to equip your character with stupid shit for some challenges
>barely any remarkable songs and stages
>really slow, bloated move-list, Hildes ring-outs
>characters like Talim and Zasalamel got so damaged that they couldn't be repaired

oh boy it's the SC5 IS THE BEST EVEN THOUGH IT'S A BLATANTLY BROKEN PIECE OF SHIT autist again.
fuck off already.

That opinion is just the worst

Crystal armor Siegfried was pretty cool

There are many things you can criticize 5 for, but not its balance.

>SC5
>Blatantly broken

The things casuals say

we're not talking about the """gameplay base""" we're talking about the "video game". SC5 is unfinished trash.

t.casual

Team Sould didn't get the time it wanted to have, but it's certainly a finished game. It's lacks single-player content, but this doesn't make it "broken".

sc5 was lacking in single player. also had less items for customization but you could make armor have certain textures as colors
but the game play is good, the only thing i wasnt a fan of was the fact that parries costed meter

t.retard who defends DLC, season passes, and a whole host of other bullshit. but remember, le customization is so DE3P XDD

retard

Because Hilde :^)

This guy knows what's up. Sexiest girl of all the Soul Calibur games.

you didnt like the customizations? that was the best part

hmm, how is the lobby system for soul calibur 5?
has anyone played in the last week, is there anyone playing?

That's SC5

WAIT HOL UP. Am I being trolled? Do niggas seriously not like SC3. What the fuck

you are being trolled, SC2 and 3 are great.
SC5 is still the best though.

t. casual

It wasn't 3 and 5 win out by a HUGE margin. 4 was waaay too slow and unresponsive

SC3 was utter shit, only a retard who knows nothing about SC or fighting games would ever make the claim SC3 was not a massive pile of shit

Because it notoriously had the sluttiest Ivy design, which pretty much makes it the best by default if you don't actually care about fighting games.

Seriously, I barely know anything about the series but many a fap was had over SC4 Ivy.

This is how we know you care more about waifus than gameplay.

Nobody likes SCIII

5 > 1 > SB > 4 > 2 > > > > > > > 3

wow i must have sucked at this game if i couldnt find these glitches. i think the only ones ive encounter were throws.
i still like it though cuz of the customization, the tales of the sword game and those cum sluts that ran the shops. i wish they made a arcade version port

What region are you in?

>two-handed weightless weapon

im sure the handle is heavy

They still need to overpower each other when their weapons collide

>tfw I still play Chronicles of the Sword from time to time

so much fun

The prequels were a mistake

I got it when I was a teen, I made my own characters, I hacked off a lot. Was pretty decent to me. I enjoyed the ladder

kek i think everyone made their own character just to jack off to it

>thinks SC2 is bad
Your opinion is absolute trash!

But my characters were really nice and pretty

>thinks SC2 is good
Your opinion is absolute trash!

>M-MUH ZELDA
kill yourself

i want to suck her lips

1/10 because I came here to call you a faggot

While we are on the subject of the Soul series, can we have a good Story mode for the next one and have Edge Master mode come back? Seriously the story for 5 sucks clitdick for having to deal with Sophitia's 2 abortions.

>single player shit
No thanks

Is this pasta? I feel like I've seen this exact post a couple times before.

I just want Soul Calibur on PC

10/10
ftfy whore

Also, pasta

...

...

...

It was trash compared to V

can i remove the mole?

...

>sc5 was lacking in single player.
It's a fucking fighting game, the single player doesn't matter.

NO

t. retard who plays fighting games alone.

Thanks, but that doesnt change the fact that this pasta has been posted hundred of times already

ILL REMOVE YOU

Amy was technically in SC5 as Viola.

If they ever do a SC6, I'd like for them to undo that, among other things. Like bringing back the old cast, or at least making sure all of the movesets that were missing in SC5 are brought back.

I don't know why everyone suddenly likes V around here. V sucked.
IV also sucked, but not as badly as V.
IV's strongest point was that it was pretty, and the roster wasn't fucked over like V yet.
V

>sc5 was lacking in single player.
No one who actually plays fighting games cares

Nope.

Weightless, but holding one is akin to holding a rapid and unpredictable spinning rotor.

IV is easily the worst in the series. It's not close.

V was really balanced but I was pretty miffed they get rid of fan favorites for no reason but include three fucking edgemasters

>That one casual samefag desperately trying to force his shit taste and revisionist history on people

The only people who hated V are the ones who wanted a single player fighting game for some reason. It had the best fighting engine in the series and that's all that should matter.

It's the new generation of players. They never played the originals to actually get used to the classic dynamics and they love flashy supers.

This is bait

2 was the best. Weapon master mode was fun as fuck.

The first game in the series had supers you underage shitposting faggot.

Fucking irony much?

What was bad about V besides the roster?

The reason I thought V was weak was because spending meter for GI was stupid.

Where they ever released on each other's consoles after a while?

I ALMOST bought the game just to play as Darth Vader.

I was in the threads when it came out, having fun with the game instead of complaining about a lack of single-player in a fucking fighting game.

>game of a series known for having extensive single player content lacks single player content
>"it's a fighting game so it's fine xD"

>I play fighting games for the stupid minigames
No 2 was shit, it was broken, unbalanced and full of gamebreaking bugs

Getting a ringout as vader doing his "toss your boss over the railing" throw was very satisfying.

That wasn't even the Calibur series, clown. And those "supers" came at the cost of your weapon.

V's a fine game. I think what happened is that people who really liked V or started with it cannot go back and enjoy the first couple. It's a lot like the Tekken scene.

>Soulblade in not the same series as soulcalibur

Because it was the first Soulcalibur since II to come out and not be a buggy unbalanced piece of shit. Not saying SCII was bugless with dumbshit like Step-G, 2G, etc but it wasn't crippled by those glitches.

It's cliche but V really is the 3rd Strike of the series. Rebooted the roster which caused m-muh character faggots to tilt out, changed the way the series fundamentally played in refreshing ways, in-depth parry(JG) system, sold poorly, etc. In 10 years it will be regarded as a pillar in the series. It will never surpass II in popularity because of Link and nostalgia just like 3S will never surpass Super Turbo in popularity.

i really like v, in fact, is the most fun ive had with a street fighter game ever.

V is outright the best game in the series

>>game of a series known for having extensive single player content
Wasn't it only 2 and 3?
