Sundus64 Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 One of my favorite games 2 fighting. Who here is a fan of the Soul series and who are your favorite characters, stages, games etc.... I like to play as Kilik, Talim and Sophitia. The best one I played is Soul Calibur 2 for the GC because it had the Hero of Time in it (Link) I hope I find SC fans here!

Jacoban Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 I've been playing since SC2. Raphael has been a longtime favorite of mine, but I also like Taki, Kilik, Cervantes and Lizardman. Anyone else think that SC5 was kinda underwhelming? I didn't feel it really added much from SC4 and I HATE that Sophitia's dead and Kilik is replaced with the annoying Xiba.

Icon of Sin Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 (edited) Only played 2-4. Got in because of Link I guess, but I found the series' characters a lot more interesting than him. Usually play as Mitsurugi/Astaroth/Zasalamel, with a bit of Voldo and Kilik on the side. Edited August 24, 2012 by Dio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jedi Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 Love the series, played the original, and 2-4 I main Sophitia, Kilik and Taki for the most part, quite the fun series I love it favorite stage would probably be the Glacial area from SC4 it just looks so pretty, also so much good music my favorite track from the series would probably be this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General Horace Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 I've only played 2 and 4. I use Nightmare and Raphael, but only raphael because his taunt is hirlarious when spammed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sundus64 Posted August 24, 2012 Author Share Posted August 24, 2012 I totally agree about how they made Sophitia killed and I really wonder what happened to Yunsung, Seung Mina, Talim and Cassandra. They just didn't put any info. Idk why but it seemed like Soul Calibur 5 just made alot of the classic SC elements missing. I just bought SCL and idk why alot of people hate it, to me it doesn't look like a bad game, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phoenix Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 I've played everything except Soul Blade and SCI. My favorite would have to be SCIII. Favorite characters? Excluding character creation, Siegfried and Taki, more so for their fighting styles than anything else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ein Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 (edited) I've played Soul Blade and SC 1-3. Sieg and Night were always fun to use although Raphael and Amy are my favorite characters of the series but I used Ivy most of the time. >_> It bugs me how some fighting game series get rid of characters and never bring them back due to story reasons. Kind of like King of Fighters and SC. Not like it would much of a hassle to just add characters to the roster and not incorporate them into the story so people can use them if they want to. <_< Edited August 24, 2012 by Ein Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samias Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 I'm not the biggest fan of fighters, but Soul Calibur is one that I like more than many others. However, SCV got rid of Talim with no real replacement and that makes me really mad, even if Talim is "low tier". Talim was young enough that she could have still been in her 30's in SCV (discounting all the characters who came back and simply haven't aged), but nope. The story mode in SCV was particularly lame when it came to the new characters, so hardly any of the new cast is fleshed out at all beyond a couple synopses put out even before the game was released. There's a lot of room for improvement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sundus64 Posted August 24, 2012 Author Share Posted August 24, 2012 Ein how do you control Ivy she is one of the hardest person to play as. How many game overs have I gotten from Arcade mode (lol) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Integrity Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 SC2 was the best because GameCube controller is the best and also Seung Mina is the only character. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ein Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 SC2 was the best because GameCube controller is the best and also Seung Mina is the only character. Stop being terrible. Charade is the only SC2 character. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roosterofdoom Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 I've played Soul Blade, along with 1-4. 2 is the best because Gamecube and Link. Gamecube and Link. Mitsurugi is my favorite through the series, but my favorite changes a lot. Xianghua, Yoshimitsu, Siegfried, and Maxi are among them.

Sundus64 Posted August 24, 2012 Author Share Posted August 24, 2012 To be honest I liked SC2 because of the characters and it was our first SC game, also when they added Link that's why we bought it. But I wish they would of added more things into it like episodes and stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ein Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 Link kinda sucked. A lot. It was all about Necrid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ice Sage Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 Played 2 and 4. fun games. i use Link, Nightmare, and Raphael. always loved playing team battle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anacybele Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 I've only played SCII for the Gamecube, but I really liked it. Kilik is hot. ^^ Link kinda sucked. A lot. He does not! D: I love playing as Link too as well as Kilik. Link's throw where he jumps on his opponent's shoulders and freaking smacks them in the ass with his sword?! That's just priceless!

Integrity Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 Link kinda sucked. A lot. It was all about Necrid. You're actually right on both points, here. That's really weird for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emeraldfox Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 I've only played SC 2 and 4, Yunsung, Cassandra, Amy and Lizardman are my favorites. Also, you're all wrong. Link was awesome in SC2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ein Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 You're actually right on both points, here. That's really weird for you. I tend to study fighting games. It's what I do. I've only played SC 2 and 4, Yunsung, Cassandra, Amy and Lizardman are my favorites. Also, you're all wrong. Link was awesome in SC2. You like Cassandra and Amy. You are great. And yeah Link is fun and all but I never liked using him very long. He didn't feel right. Then again I think Heihachi was like the best of the three exclusives. I think...

Sundus64 Posted August 25, 2012 Author Share Posted August 25, 2012 I miss Kilik's voice from Soul Calibur 2 really. They just messed him up in SC5 I was about to cry. I agree about Link, Link is fun to play ass I like charging his A spin attack. They should of use his SC moves in some Zelda games or Smash bros.

Integrity Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 I always found that Link's only real gimmick was BACK-BACK-X, BACK-BACK-X, BACK-BACK-X, BACK-BACK-X, A+B and win Weapon Master mode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samias Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 Link is really fun and unique to play as but he wasn't particularly good when you compared him to say, Nightmare, Raphael or Kilik, or even Cassandra. None of Link's weapons were really all that good despite a really unique moveset and fun throws. I'm not so sure about Spawn's tiering, but Heihachi was the "best" gameplay-wise of the exclusives, even though he as a character was the least exciting exclusive character. As far as playing between inexperienced players, tiers don't mean anything though more technical characters like Ivy can be frustrating to learn to play.

Ein Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 Ivy becomes a new character in each game. It's mind boggling how much she changes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
