Will street fighter 6 look as good as super smash bros ultimate?

They should. I really don't like the weird character models in 5.

Sprite animators don't grow on tree. You can train a half arsed artist to do sprites, animating them properly is another story.

Also most people that did way back on 90s don't work on field anymore or even on vidya. Not mention that 3d models are thousand times cheaper and faster to do.

what the fuck do these words mean?

They use a control stick, not a pad or real stick

ok so you agree that you can't sell costumes on sprites or don't you

Never gonna happen. A big fighting game staple like Street Fighter going back to sprites would be suicide

Smash model doesn't look that good in game

user's opponent saw him input a hadoken and looked at his controller (because he's a retarded smashie who can't input commands)

Yes user, companies stopped doing spritework because they can't sell you pretty hats.

arc system is doing fine

Can they even reach the heights of III anymore? Do they even have artists trained well enough for that in their current generation?

Obviously not.

And please tell me how old is blazblue and how many updates and DLC took to reach a half decent cast?

they barely make any new sprites anymore, 90% of the sprites in BBCTB are reused, and the ones that aren't look like shit.
Also their sprite animation has never been as good as old school SNK or even capcom.

SFV stays afloat on it's 50 chun li hats. In addition to sprites being expensive, doing the cheaper thing lays groundwork for microtransations later in the games life or is a value add for definitive editions for late adopters.

maybe it was small but every character was very unique in gameplay and style

And end up like SNK after KOF XIII?
Sprites are too expensive in the long run. It simply isn’t feasible for any major game dev at this point.

But user you don't undestand, i must have my pretty pixels so I can post them on chinese domino bbs instead of actually playing the game.

3D would be fine if they could do it right, but they clearly can't. Chun is the only character in 5 that actually looks good.

>Chun is the only character in 5 that actually looks good
Seriously, did all the effort go into her? Everyone else looks like they got beat with a shovel.

No, the devs who handle the Smash models truly love the series they work on with a few exceptions.
The SF devs seem to hate fighting games.

If you told me that the lead animator made Chun and then handed everyone else off to juniors or interns, I'd believe it.

BIG IRON, BIG IRON

Presentation is everything for sure. But for devs 2d spritework isn't viable on financial standpoint, and public perception of spritework is 2d = outdated.

That and sprites don't making the game better or worse. And spritefags need shut the fuckup about KOF XIII, shit isn't a good game.

What are you talking about, dumbass. This is his in-game model.

people joked that there must have been two teams doing animations because Ed and Kolin look like shit but Abigail and Menat look amazing. How can characters like Chun Li look so good in a game that also has Sakura looking like she does

why do you troll like this?

>And spritefags need shut the fuckup about KOF XIII, shit isn't a good game.
Shut your whore mouth, ESL.

a gook game has made literal billions selling sprite costumes, but the sprites don't have that fluid animation quality to them.
