This is one of the ugliest (professional) character designs, that I have ever seen... x__X'

I personally think she looks cute, but the model still needs improvement. I hope that the graphics and visuals still improve as time goes on.

I'm afraid, the opposite is true for Street Fighter V. Since the reveal the graphics have significantly deteriorated. :(

Then:

(Great image quality, highly detailed textures and shaders, great lighting)

Now:
image_street_fighter_v-28532-3120_0010.jpg


image_street_fighter_v-28333-3120_0001.jpg

(Worse image quality, textures are much more washed out, lighting is more simplistic.)

I know, some might say, they like the more simplistic, stylized look better...but from a technical point of view the graphics were significantly downgraded. :/

I saw that R Mika had been revealed and yeah the outfit sure is something. I don't even hate it because its skimpy because skimpy outfits are fine. I hate it because it just is simply hideous and SF overly muscular fighters certainly don't help.

At least they aren't censoring themselves for political correctness though even if the outfit is ugly.
Yeah the outfit was cute back when she was more curvy instead of muscular but now that she's all American Gladiator(classic not modern) it looks awkward.

That plus keeping her head the same as the old design creates the same problem as it did for Sonic Boom's Knuckles redesign: the head is hilariously mismatched with the new muscular body.

Also what's bugging be the most is that crappy dollar store mask. Don't you think she could get something that fits better?


Either way I'm hoping her alternate costume is to switch characters so that tag partner is playable and Mika is the support, because her tag partner looks WAY better and id love to use her.

Speaking about open world... There's new open world footage of Final Fantasy XV too. HQ footage is yet to appear, so these gifs will probabaly do best for now:

It was confirmed, that you can explore all the areas off the road. Looks good and really big...but also maybe a bit barren and generic. :/

It took the car three minutes to drive this distance:

OK y'all, so Cammy's face model was changed in SFV, which I don't really like that much.

As you can see, her face is more stern and slimmer, eyes have been decreased in size, and over all, she looks more serious and mature. However, many Japanese players complained. They called her ugly, and think that this face model was made in an effort to cater to the western fans. I myself like the previous face she originally had because it reminds me of Christie.

Excuse the DP, my phone was acting strange. But anyway, here is her new face in the latest build that I know some of you have seen.

Her face is now rounder, eyes have been visibly enlarged in size, and she now has an overall more softer look in comparison to her previous face. The stern, slimmer face that caused an uncanny valley of sorts is now gone, and many Japanese players are happy with this, with some saying she looks closer to her SF4 model. IMO, she looks cute, but her more serious face was more fitting for her.

i really don't see much of a difference she still looks great though, I'm just dissapointed they increased her cup size but i'll get over it.

Wow Cammy must be the best looking character shown so far. She actually looks good unlike Vega. Her outfit is ridiculous but that's besides the point.

Is there no real evidence Cammy's face was changed? :/

Speaking about SFV, I really like the preorder costumes and their execution in-game. They look of higher quality (modeling and texturing) than the defaults:

Chun Li's face looks kinda different here too, or am I imagining things? Face seems longer, eyes more narrow...

The new costumes look great, it almost makes me want to buy the $100 collector's edition. Ryu's facial hair looks good, Chun li's loose hair and cloth are both nice and I don't see clipping, and they all look so crisp and well made with clear textures! Props to Cammy for cutting several inches of her hair off so she could wear it loose;)

The image quality is higher, than we've seen before, also there is no dithering of shadowing/ambient occlusion anymore. Either they fixed it...or it's bullshots...
