DOA6 violence discussion

it's to appeal to the esports dredge who feel a pulse in their peepees when CINEMATIC AND HYPE!! shit happens on the screen, and they still didn't even do the violence properly

"just take the dirt decals we've been inflicting on everything and tint the texture more red. decals are, like, the FUTURE dude"
unoriginal, repetitive facepunch. not even going to use plurals here. there's exactly ONE type shown: a closeup punch with the victim making a retarded face, and the gameplay is interrupted constantly for it
attire destruction like literally every third rate titty ninja anime out there
screen dirt and jelly like every third rate brown and bloom shooter out there

the series has had this infuriating issue since 4 where no matter how hard you beat a character up, they absolutely refuse to STAY THE FUCK DOWN. they would be on the ground shaking their head at ur life fam, and they're still doing it in this game

now look at the series that at least made an attempt,
virtua fighter has brutal throws and a surprising number of KO animations
tekken and modern SF have result screens where the loser REALLY stays the fuck down, and the victor asserts their rightful dominance
despite being a sprite based game, samurai spirits v's finishers are some of the best and most gruesome in the genre (WITHOUT going full cheese like mortal kombat)

6 has been one nonsensical decision after another; it just doesn't seem to know what it wants to be
we want to reel in people from the fgc, so we're dumbing down the gameplay
we want it to be more MATURE EDGY AND VIOLENT, here's the same facepunch every 10 seconds and some blood decals
we're toning down the sexuality because we've been, like, "that lewd fighting game series" for decades and having an established name is extremely bad for business /s
(conspiracy theory: this was a way to get back at rabid waifufags in japan who have been in a state of perpetual butthurt since xtreme3)

But the rabid waifufags in Japan have Venus Vacation to throw their dillerydoos at, so they're probably happy anyway.
Unless you're saying... Japanese waifufags hate Xtreme 3?
