Why is Smash Bros the only franchise that gives a shit about making great character models? Ryu and Ken look better than they do in SFV. Cloud looks way better in Smash than he does in the remake game. Mega Man looks the most authentic in 3D now more so than he ever has before. We have never even gotten a decent Simon Belmont until Smash Bros.

They have a bigger budget. Every game you posted besides Smash had a comically small budget

Budget is not all it takes to make good character models. it's all about knowing what you're doing and polishing. Final Fantasy VIII remake had nothing but budget and Cloud in that game looks even more faggy and strays even further away from his iconic OG design.

That's not even the render. they're all in-game models.

Fucking embarrassing, user

terry looks atrocious in kofxiv, and i play xiv
hmu for games on steam
like terry in xiv legit looks like one of those plastic as fuck highly madeup euro looking fags backing blondie in her music videos, the ones that kind of look like mannequins n shit
although the kof and fexl pictures look a hell of a lot like xnalara output while the smash picture looks like someone trimmed out a screenshot of terry from the game, given how unclean the edges are, making it very suspect
this observation didn't require having seen many photoshops in my time either, it's easy to tell by just the pixels
Xavier James
Apparently KoF XIV does use motion capture which means someone actually modeled for Terry and from the looks of it, the guy was more than likely Japanese which partially explains why Terry is so god damn ugly. even if his face looked good, the colors they used, the jacket/hat, and even the way they did his pony tail are all so fucking ugly.
Colton Thomas
motion capture could simply mean captured animation data via someone's motions, it doesn't necessarily mean it ca...i mean, the term is motion capture, it just seems so misused because of nintendo and the likes in the 90s
Liam Bailey
seriously, the smash Cloud looks so fucking good it's crazy
Jordan Ward
I honestly don't like the Smash Mega Man much.
It's better than his 11 model but Rock had always been pretty expressive in the character art and post-8bit games. I know he's a robot but the complete lack of emotion in his face doesn't suit him, it's a relic of Mega Man 1s limited animation.
I wish they went closer to MvC2s design for him
Ian Nelson
I think he's too squat, the most iconic design for Rock has him with longer limbs, it's a staple for all the artwork from 4-11. It's usually what gets used in comics, Megamix, crossovers, etc.. as well.
Still, I'm glad to see Rock in Smash at all.

He looks almost the same as his most iconic design but has the proportions of the original in-game sprite.
Hunter Thompson
EX Layer looks great
at least post the one that uses the shaders like you did with Smash
Luke Cooper
don't forget

Get me the model and I'll replace it but as of now, it was the only one I can find.

Someone post the pic where a fucking background cameo Kyo model looks way better than XIV Kyo
Benjamin Carter
>Someone post the pic where a fucking background cameo Kyo model looks way better than XIV Kyo
It looks better than any 3D Kyo SNK has ever made. I wish someone would do something with these models just so they aren't in a fucking T pose.
James Myers
KoF XV when?

Goddamn I wish Smash Ultimate actually looked as good as Terry's polished up model in his trailer.
Parker Gray
Agreed. I just finished 11 today though and the artstyle grew on me, I really like the design.
Landon Wright
11 is a really good-looking game an in general a really great Mega Man title. Rock's model/run cycle are legitimately one of the very few problems it has, the design itself isn't even bad either just the execution.
Adrian Perry
Hope this is bait. If it isnXt though it just goes to show how good Terry looks in Smash.
Gavin Turner
Where’s my amiibo reeeeeee
Zachary Anderson
I think it's because in Smash they actually want to celebrate the games and not the art, so they strike a nice balance and usually focus on getting the animations and details right before anything else.
The Belmont animations are something else, and yes Rock looks more like a homage to the 8bit games than his later portrayals.
Luke Long
Sakurai is a autist for making shit as good and accurate as possible, dude was ready to refuse pac-man if he was forced to use the bad 3d design.
Jaxon Cooper
Fucking kek what a bullshit image, he looks nothing like that in FEXL
Brody Sullivan
>Goddamn I wish Smash Ultimate actually looked as good as Terry's polished up model in his trailer.
Does it not?
Wyatt Adams
>he looks nothing like that in FEXL
but the model is literally ripped from FEXL. The only difference is that he's posed. It's not fan made.
Jeremiah Myers
What the hell is wrong with these pictures? It doesn't look anything like that for me. It's it because these are from the PS4 version?
Jaxson Collins
Don't know what to tell you. It's how he always looks.
Charles Russell
Dear God that's hideous. He doesn't look nearly as bad on the PC version, but maybe it's just the lighting.
Colton Brooks
don't post this kim is based
Juan Taylor
It is the lighting. That's what he looks like without all the smoke and mirrors.
Dylan Edwards
It's sad how he looked better in a PS2 game than he does in XIV.
Michael Jackson
they fucked up by basing smash cloud on dissidia, sorry im gonna be THAT guy. it still gets a pass but eh. but its a lot closer to the spirit of the original character than the remake model.
Hunter Sullivan
That's literally his smash model.
Oliver Walker
Pure dedication and a director who cares about the source material. Other games slap in characters and use their most recent designs but sakurai uses the designs fans are most familiar with. Sometimes his team will go out of their way to make a new design that mixes elements from previous versions.
Noah Bell
Tifa's Dissidia model looks better than 7R's too.
Ryan Moore
no it doesnt.
youre just a nostalgic faggot
