In case y'all notice Yoshimitsu from Tekken. He's also in the Soul Calibur franchise.
Is the same Yoshimitsu?
@@TheDarkSideOfYouSoul Yes.
@@rainofkhandaq6678 oh.
Thanks, Marshall! 😀
@@youngprince7820 no. At times of Soul Calibur it's his predecessor. In Tekken is another one new. Yoshimitsu is the name of his sword, and whoever wields it embraces it's name as his own. There's a theory that in every Soul and Tekken parts Yoshimitsu looks completely different because each time another person is using this cursed blade.
6:02 in a manner of speaking. Inferno is a last resort of the Sword itself. When Nightmare is gone and there’s no one it can consider a suitable wielder, Soul Edge the sword will essentially draw on the past knowledge of those who have used it in battle and manifest a physical form to fight.
Also fun fact about the stripper, the pirate guy is her father.
I haven't played this one yet. What is the Soul Caliber doing? It doesn't seem like they've done nearly as much with it.
@@mechanomics2649 Soul Calibur is the only weapon that can actually damage Soul Edge.
@@Mr.2Dirty Right, I know that much. I just haven't seen much done with it narratively.
@@mechanomics2649 in the main story of Soul Calibur 6, Xiangua uses Soul Calibur to beat Inferno and destroy Soul Edge.
@@mechanomics2649 I believe it took on a physical human form much like soul edge and inferno during soul calibur 5. Its human form resembled Sophitia, probably because the two main characters of that particular SC game itteration were Sophitia's children, both ended up as wielders to Soul Calibur and Soul Edge each.
FYI, soul calibur 6 was pretty much a reboot to the series of sort, retelling the story of SC1 and SC2, instead of continuing SC5 story.
2B is from Nier: Automata, a fantastic game from Yoko Taro. Hopefully Nier: Automata is on the list and comes soon, because I didn't know about this game until a year ago. Fantastic experience and one I'll never forget. I won't spoil much about 2B as I want you to experience it yourself.
I would love to see the nier series (replicant 1.22, automata, reincarnation) in a triple trailer tuesday
On the list but we didn’t know too much about it. Hearing more from this videos comments though 😀
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames if you check out the Nier stories, not just the trailers, have your tissues ready
Information on the guest characters:
- Geralt: You guys know who he is.
- 2B: She comes from a game called Nier: Automata, developed by Square Enix. She’s an android built to keep a project a secret.
- Haomaru: He’s from the Samurai Shodown series, developed by SNK. He’s a swordsmen that travels the world to hone and perfect his skills.
nier automata
+Yoshimitsu from Tekken series
Edit: A crab have informed me that Yoshimitsu's always been in Soul Calibur. Yes, you read it right. A crab. Big ups for them!
@@vkarvanzer4243 Yoshimitsu's always been in Soul Calibur, too, though.
@@acrab6527 Oh shoot, i don't know about that. I thought he's a guest too. Thank you for the info!
@@acrab6527 didnt Heihachi @tekken also join? i thought they joined at the same time, but dont remember i played it at PS2
(One thing) I don't know why,
But the uploader decided to recolor everyone's outfit to black and neon blue. Rest assured, the actual characters in the game have a more diverse color Palette.
😎👍🙂
2:24 - Yep, that's the general reaction to Voldo 😂
🤗
Couple of things
2b comes from a game called nier automatica.. there's a lot of philosophical breakdowns on it incredible game
The last guy is from samurai showdown you can react to the supers from that game as well. They are really good.
All sounds good to us 😀
Talim is one of my favourite game characters, specifically because she's a pre-colonisation Filipina. All her kick attacks have "sipa" in the name, which translates to "kick", attacks with her bladed tonfa has "hiwa" which means "cut", and finally, her fighting style, while not completely the same, takes cues from eskrima, the Filipino martial art.
😎🤟😀
Soulcalibur's known for it's gameplay, customisation, and guest characters.
SCII had Heihachi (PS), Spawn (Xbox), and Link (GameCube) as guests, depending on the platform. The 2013 re-release made Spawn and Heihachi available for everyone.
SCIII didn't have guests but introduced Create-A-Soul, which would be a franchise staple from then on.
SCIV had 3 Star Wars characters as guests: Starkiller, Yoda, and FRIGGIN' VADER HIMSELF.
SC Legends had Lloyd Irving from Tales of Symphonia.
SC: Broken Destiny had Kratos.
SCV had Ezio Auditore.
SCVI has Geralt of Rivia, 2B, and Haohmaru, who is arguably the blueprint for the "wandering ronin" archetype in video games.
As for the "stripper" Ivy, her outfit is like that because she debuted in Soulcalibur (the SECOND game in the franchise) so tech was kinda limited. They got her whipsword to work, but her outfit had to be as limited as possible due to hardware limitations. Hence, uh, that ensemble.
Ensemble 😂 great choice of word. And man their guest character list is top tier 🤩
You forgot that Devil Jin's move set was also present in SC V for the creat a soul
The character Zasalamel has a amazing critical finish where he freezes and uses his scythe and then snaps his fingers to blow his opponent up. That to me is so badass!
😎🤟
I always liked Soul Calibur, because each character had a different weapon type. A Lot better than everyone just punching with slightly different styles.
I can't believe that was 2B's ultimate. It makes complete sense, but wow, Yoko Taro.
Did 6 not have Lizardman? Lizardman was my boy! Axe and Shield for life!
Lizardmen are a race you can give created characters in SC6, but sadly we didn't get THE Lizardman (Aeon Calcos).
So to explain what happened to Kilik when Siegfried grabbed Soul Edge it released a powerful wave of darkness called the Evil Seed. This caused alot of people to become consumed with an intense bloodlust and made people go into violent murderous rampages. Only those with powerful wills, mystic arts granting them protection or with items to protect the soul from corruption were unaffected. Kilik however was consumed by this, and he went on a rampage till Xiang Lin gave him the belt you see on his body which is a mirror that protects the soul and drains evil energies. However she went on a rampage and he was forced to kill her. But whenever he does Soul Charge reverts back to the evil form but with limited control on his actions. It's why he says, "It shouldn't be like this Xiang Lin." because he remembers that he killed her. Now in the story he is able to conquer his darkness and not give in total bloodlust anymore.
Thanks for explaining Kilik better to us 😀
Also, the mystical chest belt that Kilik wears is known as the Dvapara-Yuga.
If my memory is right, Amy seem to have 4 since of split personality and the special seem to influence by the time of personality in battle, so go for the girl that you both say look like “Jinx” also Beth, 2B second special is that she self destruct once she lure you in a gravity pull bomb from her pod. She is from a video game NiEr: Automata, I highly recommend you both check out the game trailers for it or Nier games during spare time.
That's Tira you're confusing her with, Amy doesn't have a split personality.
Nope. Amy has 5 different Critical Edges:
1. Red (no red rose stacks)
2. White (no white rose stacks)
3. Red (with red rose stacks)
4. White (with red rose stacks)
5. Purple (with both red and white rose stacks)
Oh thanks as was thinking it was reverse roles 😅
Oh thanks for telling and sharing
Thanks GR! 😀
The 2 women with the sword and shield are Cassandra And Sophitia. They are sisters in the game and also great video you guys have made day I’ve been waiting for a long time for this epic moment! 😊
Glad you enjoyed the video and it makes sense that they are pirate sisters 🙂
The last 3 were guest characters, Geralt from The Witcher, 2B from Nier Automatica, and Haomaru from the Samurai Shodown series. Haomaru has been around since LONG before the Soul Calibur series so considering SNK has been pretty crossover happy lately it made perfect sense to have Haomaru in the most well known weapons based fighting game outside of Samurai Shodown. Samurai Shodown was one of the classic SNK games I played back in the day, so seeing him there made me happy. Soul Calibur's got a bit of a rep for guest characters since in Soul Calibur 2 there was a console exclusive character for each home console, PS2 got Heihachi from Tekken, Xbox got Spawn, and Gamecube got Link from legend of Zelda. Later Soul Calibur 4 would have Yoda and Vader be console exclusive for awhile for the Xbox (Yoda) and PS3 (Vader) both would eventually be DLC for the other console so you could have all 3 Star Wars characters in the same game on one console, the 3rd character being The Apprentice from the Force Unleashed games. Soul Caliber 5 would have Ezio from Assassin's Creed playable and then you could create and use Devil Jin via Character Creation.
Epic crossover characters 😯🤩
You left out two soul calibur spin off games that had guest characters in soul calibur legends a wii exclusive had Lloyd from tales of symphonia and in soul calibur broken destiny a psp exclusive had Kratos from God of war
Awesome, another game I love very much. Ken's reaction when he saw Geralt was just amazing. Also, Bethany did pronounce Zasalamel's name right, and Ken was right about a sword and shield girl showing up twice. They are sisters and use the same weapons.
If you guys liked this game's characters and supers then I highly recommend Samurai Shodown 2019 (Yes it's spelled Shodown).
Thanks for the correct spelling. We also keep wanting to make Soulcalibur two words 😂
That’s not all from Soul Calibur, Soul Calibur 4 has Darth Vader and Yoda and the Super Moves in 4 are just as Good as 6’s Super Moves
😯 this game has some great crossovers 😀
So the thing with Amy is that she has a mechanic called Rose Perception. Certain attack strings that she has will make her throw either a red or white rose at her opponent. Landing these rose attacks will increase its respective color's pereception. Landing 4 of either color will max out that particular perception which will cause some of Amy's moves to become augmented. Amy has access to multiple criticals that also benefit from white and red rose perception individually as well as together (purple) when you have both maxed out.
Nice! Thanks for giving us some more info on Amy 😀
I love Soul Calibur 6’s Critical’s they are awesome!
😎🤟🤩 (wrong emoji first time 🤗)
You guys are awesome!
My favorite character is Tira the one y’all said look like Harley Quinn. Her fighting style is Dance of Death and she is absolutely ruthless and unpredictable with that ring sword. She wields that blade with her hands, feet and uses it as a hula hoop. Once you start her combos it is difficult to stop.
She sounds like a lot of fun to play with 😀
Yoshimitsu @5:23 is bad ass!! Do you guys remember him from Tekken? I love his character design for Soul Caliber as well.
We did remember him from Tekken by the name. So this is same universe? 😀
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames Yes.
Bandai-Namco made both Tekken and Soul Caliber and Yoshimitsu made his first crossover appearance in Soul Caliber 2. Soul Caliber introduced a lot of secret characters over the franchise. Some characters you may know: Spawn, Link, Darth Vader, and Yoda.
I’m so glad u guys checked out this series and I’m so excited for you guys to get more into it. The characters are so diverse and stylish and each of their story arcs are interesting and intertwine with eachother in cool ways.
How are they diverse and stylish when they have all been put in stupid costumes...ORIGINALLY they were diverse. i have been playing Soulcalibur since the classic...since it was known as Soul Edge...but this remake is awful...it gives fools the opportunity to ruin games by altering the costumes and make them all look alike (see above for proof) and now these two don't even realise they aren't seeing the real SoulCalibur.
@@IDyce88 I was talking about the characters in general not this particular video. I didn’t like that they did that either but I think they will understand when they see more videos on SC. And I believe that you could change the characters clothing since SC4. Anyways they obviously got intrigued by the characters still so I don’t think it’s that deep… I’m sure they will react to more and realize lol
@@jacobaponte5806 i'm not fond of SC 6...i don't like that they did a remake...it was unnecesary and clearly just milking the money...the legacy of SC was so much better when it had loads of new characters in SC 5 and descendants on existing ones like's sophitia's kids for example..or Taki's student. SC 6 threw all that away in favour of what "better graphics" and flashy moves...and two new SC characters (not counting guests; the blue guy with the two sided sword and the new boss guy with the beard, i forget their names because it's been a whole since i looked at SC Lore). SC 5 had more characters...more story...the whole quest mode...and SC 3 and 4 were good in that way too. sometimes a remake just ruind everything.
@@IDyce88 Honestly I like SC6 but mainly for the gameplay. I don’t think it added much to the existing story aside from some new details and nice graphics. But I didn’t really like where the story went in SC5 either. I liked the new characters but they did not flush them out or give them any backstory really except for sophitas kids which were just annoying tbh. I think if they combine SC6 graphics and gameplay while also focusing on a new story and a deep dive in the characters between the timeline of 4 and 5 there is hope for the series or just create a whole story entirely just in the same universe. Personally tho SC4 will always be my favorite out of the whole series.
@@jacobaponte5806 even if the characters weren't fleshed out at lest there was MORE OF them...i mean i say this with mortal kombat and King of fighters and tekken and SF too....those series all have over 100 characters in total...especially KOF...but do they ever have a game with over 50 characters...nope...they could...i mean yeah Tekken does their tag tournaments but ironically that is the LEAST successful game in their series in terms of sales. but Tekken tag tournament 2 is the game me and my friends play the most if we want to do Tekken. versatility is NEVER overrated...let people be allowed to choose from as many different characters as possible i say. and i stand by what i said SC got better and better oriignally...SC 2, 3, 4 and 5 were amazing...i still have those...but SC 6 was like going backwards when walking over a bridge...progression went back...it made no sense.
Tira is my main and my favorite character in the series. She is very much inspired by Harley Quinn. Tira has two personalities; Jolly and Gloomy and when playing as her in the game, you can switch between them via certain button combinations that change the way she fights, expresses herself, and alters the power of her moves. She's a villain in the series and was originally introduced in SCIII.
There's a ton of lore in the series surrounding each character. It'd take hours to detail it all in a comment, so hopefully you guys continue to watch more Soul Calibur stuff and even go back and see the older games, the characters and their special moves, and how they games evolved from then to now. Soul Calibur VI is the most recent game in the series and it came out back in 2018.
We will continue to watch more Soul Calibur stuff. 😀
3:10 - I cant be the only one thinking "Phantom Ganon" (good potential for a clone character)
easily one of the smoothest and well choreographed finishers in all of fighting games!
They were very impressive 🤩
I love Soul Calibur. 2 is one of my favorite games. It's what really got me into the fighting game community.
2B being in this game just made me want to cry because Nier: Automata is maybe the greatest game ever made, so her as a guest character was icing on the cake.
Wow. Lots of love for that game from everyone that has played it. We will have to check it out 😀
Siegfried and nightmare are the same person in this game i believe since 6 is a reboot/sequel the events takeing place during soul calibur 1. after Siegfried is free from soul edge he spends the rest of his life trying to make up for what he did as nightmare.
Thanks for clearing that up 🙂
9:46 fun fact, Azwel has the same voice actor as Percy from Legend of Vox Machina
Love seeing our Vox Machina crew show up in stuff we watch 😊
I remember playing a SC demo at best buy as a kid and wanting it so much. Never got to play it beyond a friend's house a couple years ago but keeping my eyes on this title 😊
😎🤟
I remember a Soul Caliber game had Ezio Auditore. And he was a great character to have back then!
Ezio would be great in any game 😁😀
Siegfried voice was used for that gutts vs nightmare as guts
Ok so I haven't read a bunch of comments yet but just so you guys know the 2 ladies with sword and shield weapons are sisters
The first one you saw with the long hair is the older sister
And the shorter ponytail haired one that shows up later is the younger sister
Also fun fact they have a brother in the younger sisters story mode named Lucius
😎👍😀
2B used to be my main when i played this frequently. her special can be activated mid-air too and she has a lot of attacks which make her jump. I'm not sure if any other character can activate the special mid-air. Maybe Talim or Voldo. I used to play Voldo and Cervantes a lot in older games
😎👍🙂
If you ever play SC 6, let me know! There's nobody to play with online :(
Back then there where special guest characters in each console for soul calibur 2, for the game cube there was Link from legend of Zelda oot, for the play station 2 was heihachi from tekken and for the Xbox was spawn.
Game has the best guest characters 😀
I'm here again for FIght Night Fridays, another great one.
The last two characters are from games that I hope you guys get to check out soon, Nier Automata and Samurai Shodown. If you don't play Neir: Automata yourselves, I highly recommend looking up a collection of the first five endings of the game. The fifth ending of that game does something that I have genuinely never seen any other game do ever and it's worth seeing.
I'm also here for Friday Night Fridays
Both games are on our request list to check out but we appreciate you telling us more about Nier 😀
You guys should check out the SC4 Critical Finishes as well.
Sounds good to us 🙂
I love the fact that Yoshimitsu is in here Being a Tekken player. Also if you guys remember Heihachi, not in this one but he's in Soul calibur as well.
We remember him from the Death Battle. Can never forget him tossing family off cliffs and volcanos 😂
Hurray! Soul Calibur!!
I'm always looking forward to Friday's! LOVE your energy 🥊🥊
Thanks! 😎🤟🥳
That intro lol. That was great. Cya later for the stream! ✌️
Fun having you on the stream as always Blue 🥳🥳
2B is from Nier:Automata (you should react to thay game, by the way. The story is amazing. I'd even encourage playing it) and she's actually an android. The second finisher, she commanded her Pod to keep the enemy in place and self destruction yourself, which you can actually do in the Nier game.
We do plan to check that game out 🙂
You should totally watch all of the intros to this series as all of them are awesome
Sound like a plan to us 🙂
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames Oh I almost forgot to mention that there are different variants to each intro where the changes are pretty minimal, maybe 1 or 2 scenes are changed, and it’s totally your choice if you want to watch them. If you do want to watch the variations though, the Xbox version of the SoulCalibur 4 intro is missing from the Video with all of the Intros.
Seeing 2B reminds me that yall should look into doing a LetsPlay or watching the cutscenes or lore on Nier Automata. its such an amazing game!
also, Zasalamel is my fav char in Soul Calibur. its pronounced Zah-sah-luh-mel :)
Thanks for the phonetic pronunciation 😀
YOURE WATCHING THE SOUL CALIBUR 6 SUPER MOVES😱 THATS MY FAVORITE GAME I PLAY💖 I NEVER THOUGHT YOU'LL SEE IT😃
Glad you got to see us check it out 😀🥳🥳😎🤟
Some more facts this SOUL CALIBUR 6 game is a reboot of the series so if you view the other 5 games just know they're in a separated timeline then 6
Ah, thanks for the heads up 🙂
I love Soul Calibur, but sadly i played only older games in series via emulators, cause my PC is not good enough for latest one. I played Soul Calibur 2 and Soul Calibur Broken Destiny and i had a tons of fun. Created many custom characters from different games, even from Mortal Kombat, which you can see on my channel if few videos. So yeah, Soul Calibur is fun game. Hard but fun.
That’s cool that you created some custom Mortal Kombat characters to use in the game 😀
Ken what was that intro lmao. It was great! 10/10. I literally just got soul calibur 6, 3 days ago. It is fantastic. Maybe we can play sometime :D :P
Felt like mixing it up for the intro 😂 We don’t have Soulcalibur yet but hoping to get more into it. How are you liking it so far? 😀
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames the effects are crazy, the graphics are great, and the gameplay is fun. Still getting used to the changes from SC 5, but it's a fantastic game. I recommend it
ah soul caliber, Tekkens lil sister. you should def check out samurai showdown 2019 supers. that's where haomaru is from. may I also suggest trailer draft on street fighter 5 or granblue fantasy versus
Plan to check out samurai at some point and for sure some character drafts for street fighter 😀
the last guy was a guest from samurai showdown
😎👍🙂
Tira is actually inspired by Harley if I remember correctly
The battle maid is from Nier: Automata, which is REALLY good. Strongly recommend it.
😎👍😀
I'll be your lore guide to a degree for this. As you've just seen this is Soul Calibur 6 (SC6), the sixth installment in the SC series. The game franchise goes back to the PS1 as Soul Blade in the U.S. but as Soul Edge in Japan. The original cast was Mitsurugi, Hwang, Seong Mi-na, Sophitia, Taki, Rock, Voldo, Seigfried, Li Long, and Cervantes. It wasn't until SB/SE got rebranded as SC that Kilik, Maxi, Xianghua, Astaroth, Ivy, Nightmare, Edge Master, Lizardman, and Yoshimitsu were introduced. There was one other and that was Arthur who was basically a Mitsurugi clone found in the Korean version, few arcade versions and world releases of SC1. SC2 would be the debut of Talim, Yunseong, and Raphael. It would also be the debut of the series staple of guest characters; across the platforms at the time, the games would have console specific guest characters. Link from Legend Of Zelda on the Gamecube, Heihachi Mishima from Tekken on the PS2, and Spawn from the comic book series on the original XBOX. SC3 is where Zasalamel, Setsuka, and Tira debuted along with character creation which sparked the "create-a-soul" feature that has been present ever since. SC4 had the debut of Hilde (Hildegard) and Algol; but was mainly a promotion for Star Wars Force Unleashed as the game featured Star Killer, Darth Vader, and Yoda. SC5 was perhaps the worst game of the bunch in terms of story mode, and was an attempt at a new generation with Patroklos and Pyrrha, Xiba, Natsu, Leixia, Viola, and Z.W.E.I. Of course I'd be remiss if I forgot to mention Lizardman being renamed to Aeon who had dual axes. And here we are with SC6, the new characters in this reboot being Groh and Azwel; the story mode with your created character revolving around them with Azwel being the big bad, that story mode is called Libra Of Soul. Your actions have some consequences as you have a scale that determines if your soul is more towards Soul Edge, the evil blade, or Soul Calibur, the good blade, the ending determines based on which part of the scale you're on. But back to characters, SC6 has three guest characters, those being Geralt from The Witcher, 2B from Nier Automata, and Haohmaru from SNK's Samurai Shodown. On a side note, video games universes are merging, it wasn't too long ago you looked over Guilty Gear Strive, Baiken herself is DLC in Samurai Shodown (2019). Full circle, all roads are leading to Rome. Even back in SC3 in the character creator, Kos-Mos' outfit from Xenosaga Episode 1 was present, but I'm forgetting one guest character from SC5, and that is Ezio Auditore Da Firenze from Assassins Creed, and you guys did check on the AC trailers right? Yeap, good ol Ezio was in SC5 as a guest character, complete with a Soul Caliburized version of his theme. And if you two want to play SC seriously, you'll have to like a character less for appearance and more for being on par with their command inputs to execute their moves properly, some characters are beginner friendly with easy inputs, others require memorizing and muscle memory to play as them properly, and oh god the temporary stances into one-two inputs and to effectively combo them together. Yeah, bring some ice, your fingers are gonna get a work out on your analog stick, directional pad, buttons, you name it...don't worry it won't hurt your hand like Devil May Cry will. I'll tell ya more only if ya want me to.
With these fighting games our mains are usually whoever we can align with play style wise. Kung Lao was not Bethany’a favorite nor was the Flash but they both ended up being her mains because of playing 🙂
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames Well SC6 is different from most fighting games because SC has an eight way run mechanic built in which allows side steps and diagonal movements; plus attacks have height detection for high, mid, and lows, you can normally block high and mid, but low requires you to crouch. Then there's lethal hits on counter which can do armor breaks. Every character is unique. You have rush down fighters, power fighters, grapplers, in fighters, out fighters, and zoners, so the weapon isn't just associated with style and inputs, but also attack reach and length, it can get technical but not Tekken technical. For example Setsuka is a speedy rush down character who's attacks manipulate stun states and capitalize on enemies by out pacing them and attacking while they're down, her parasol also allows her to Mary Poppins with a temporary hover stance which can make her oppressive and unpredictable. Then you have Seigfried and Nightmare who are canonically one in the same but their styles differ. Seigfried's strength is in his reach, heavy damage potential, and step stances, Seigfried has four stances to shift between fluidly for setups and counters. But Nightmare has a temporary forward step stance and two standing stances, Nightmare is just sheer unga-bunga....but Astaroth is a grappler who is the epitome of "NO! BIGGER UNGA BUNGA! TRY TO TECH MY GRAB!". Personally I'm a Mitsurugi style main and he's the only character who has an auto counter to projectile attacks, in truth Mitsurugi is the fairest style in the entire game, if you lose to a Mitsu then you just suck, most characters have gimmicks but Mitsu's only gimmick is shura state, it isn't like Seigfried at low health or Nightmare's "get off me" explosion...which Mitsu in sheath stance can counter as a projectile proct.But yeah, Bethany said Cassandra was like Sophitia, yes she is because in game they're sisters, Cassandra is basically a more aggressive Sophitia. But of course there's Ivy and Cervantes and they're daughter and father. Cervantes is basically the M. Bison of SC and Ivy is a zoner because her sword is also a whip....and she has painful command grabs. Talim and Taki are high mobility and combo oriented characters...Voldo is just pure "what the fuckery" and can hit like a truck if given the chance, just pure skidaddle skidoodle. Haohmaru is like a mix of Mitsurugi and Seigfried with the "oh nice health lead you have, shame if I B+K you on a counter hit for MAXIMUM DAMAGE." No amount of flex tape will repair your dignity when you get big chonked into a k.o. from it. 2B is just combo madness....she is the only character who can launch an ultimate while in mid air and air combo, it should be illegal but here we are. Groh, Mr. Double Saber himself, his slogan is "spin to win." followed by "super sonic speed" when in soul charge....like Haohmaru, "nice health lead you have, shame I'm about to shift into maximum overdrive...and I installed the turbo this time." Raphael and Amy are adoptive father and adopted daughter, both are fencers with flare and rush down but Amy is just the meme of "you better stop". You saw the screen split for her ultimate, its because she has roses that she throws, its like Johnny from Guilty Gear hitting you with coins, but roses, if she hits you with red roses, her ultimate shows red roses, if she hits you with more white roses, the rose graphic is white, but if both rose counters are maxed the graphic shows purple roses and boosts the damage of her ultimate's final attack. Kilik is like a pendulum as his temp stances require half quarter circle inputs without button presses, and Seong Mi-na is basically Kilik but better and has a soul charge that doesn't drain health....yeah Kilik's soul charged state drains his health over time rapidly instead of burning his soul meter, so he can just spam break attacks all day...Mi-na is the safer alternative. Xianghua might look cute but is secretly a monster and her rush downs will just fuck your feelings with no condom on...just like Setsuka...but in Chinese flavor...consider the panda poked. Hilde is a mix of an in and out fighter with her spear and short sword combo...and her free unblockable....which can be spammed. Yoshimitsu is in the same camp as Voldo with a mix of Mitsurugi and a kick so powerful it can field goal your lower jaw to Amsterdam...just like Sophitia's kick...but Sophitia's kicks can do that to both your jaw structure and ankles. Oh boy this post is long.
Haohmaru is from Samurai Showdown, one of the classic games from the SNES with sequels all the way up to the PS4 titles. (At one point they had a cowboy with a gun.)
I totally knew you guys would love these!
You know us well 😁😊
Yes, the best fighting game franchise!!! This one was a nice return to form after 5 was a bit of a letdown. My personal favorite is 4, but the fact that Yoda is one of the cameo characters might have something to do with that!😁
The games are basically historical fantasy set in the late 16th/early 17th centuries.
Some background about some of the characters and their connections:
Cervantes (undead pirate) and Ivy(stripper you guys said, though dominatrix would be far more accurate 😁) are father and daughter, with no love between them, if memory serves.
Sophitia and Cassandra (sword and shield ladies) are sisters, with Sophitia being the elder. They're Greek, and both super fun to play as with quick, bouncy, bashy styles.
Recognizing Taki (ninja lady) as one of the best makes me happy!🤗
Siegfried is Nightmare's original human self given new life, or something (been a while since I actually played any of these)
Yoshimitsu(played baseball with a soul) is most likely an ancestor of the same named character from Tekken.
Raphael(fencer guy) is always one of my mains, I like his fighting style a lot, even if his story is a little dark and creepy. Amy is his ward or something, but the circumstances are complicated and there's perhaps some questionable intent on Raphael's part. It's weird. Do like playing as Amy as well, her style is similar to his.
Voldo is everybody's favorite bondage demon!!!😄
2B is a guest character from Nier: Automata, which is an example of a sequel being way better than the original, Nier. She's an android from a post apocalyptic Earth.
Cheers!
Didn't a bunch of people hate 4, or am I wrong?
@@SolProxy not sure. Of course, I generally don't pay too much attention to what other people think. I liked 4, and that's good enough for me!😁
@@geddistopholes6785 Sure, that's an admirable attitude that I sometimes wish I had, I've just heard "most" people talk crap about 5 and maybe 4, with 2 being the best and 3 being slightly worse but still good.
“Everyone’s favorite bondage demon” 🤣😂 Love it when we watch a game you’re passionate about Geddy 🥳🥳
Taki is the ninja girl....She is my second main after Nightmare.
😎🤟😀
Thank you for reacting to it! Great reaction guys😊👍
Glad you enjoyed it 🙂
Actually Bethany is 100% wrong. The "stripper" is... Setsuka, the one she assumed had everything together. Setsuka is a Consort, and to put it lightly, her life is a trainwreck of concurrent tragedies. The one Bethany thought was stripper is Ivy, and not only is she second wisest character in Soul Calibur behind Zasalamel, she's an alchemist, a botanist and an engineer. As for the outfit, she knows what *she* likes, and she's not really worried about what anyone else likes. She's also the daughter of the undead pirate, Cervantes; so modesty really does not run in her family.
Cassandra and Sophitia are sisters, and both are acolytes of Hephaestus the god of the smith, which is why they have similar weapons.
This Yoshimitsu is the same Yoshimitsu from Tekken.
@@rainofkhandaq6678 Cool story bro except the part where she:
Built her own lab that's as large as the house above it
Built her own sentient sword-whip
Was the one who drained Cervantes of all the souls he had collected
as for the latter:
As long as the Manji sword is intact the soul of the wielder cannot pass into death. Every Manji Clan Lord is contained in the sword when they are killed. It's *literally* the Critical Art. Nevermind that VI is a reboot and there is *one* Yoshimitsu, last of the Manji Clan.
Dig it. Never judge a book by its cover 😎🤟🥳
@@rainofkhandaq6678 Except this is VI and V doesn't exist anymore, so your opinions aren't really relevant.
@@rainofkhandaq6678 The only person hostile and also wrong here is you. If you had bothered to actually play or read the perfect bible or both you would know that.
Judging by how Setsuka teased Algol at the end of her story in the SCIV, I'd say she does something that wears her out a little bit more than what stripping can do. She's not one to intoxicate herself but she's obviously not exempt from requiring remedies.
I was having a bad day and I opened this vid with Ken saying ''Hey you!'' and started laughing! XD
Yay! Glad it out a smile on your face 🙂🥳🥳🤗
"hey you" top tier intro guys 😂
Thanks! 🤗
Gonna be checking this once I'm free!!! 👀
Hope you enjoy it 🥳🥳😀
Soul Cal is such a cool franchise, hoping there would be a new entry soon.
Btw you guys should check out the Samurai Showdown Supers, it's a fighting game series made by the same people who made King if Fighters. The character you saw at 11:21 is Hoahmaru and is actually the protagonist of that said series.
Plan to check out Samurai Showdown at some point 🙂
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames looking forward to it!
Soul Calibur's character roster is very diverse/unique compared to most fighting games. Absolutely no copy paste fighting styles in Soul Calibur 6
Didn't recognize 2B 👀 Sounds like time for NieR: Automata and NieR: Replicant reactions? Straight up two of my favorite games ever, would love to see it.
Yup. We will have to bump it up the list 🙂
Hope you guys watch 4&5 critical finish
We will 🙂
Azwell's "consider yourself saved" is hilarious. Man expects gratitude after obliterating you
😛
I see Bethanny likes Z names ( Zafina from Tekken, Zarina Kassir from DBD and now Zasalamel :)
Happy coincidence but nice spot 😀😁🤗🥳
YAY! i was waiting for this video!!
😎🤟🥳
10:36 - That is a YorHa android called 2B from the 2017 game, NieR: Automata, directed by Yoko Taro. It's my favourite game, and I highly recommend watching a trailer reaction of the game.
We will have to check that out. On our list but now we are hearing more and more about it 😀
I love "Tekken 7 and I enjoy playing it on my "PS5. Mortal Kombat is dope as well. O.k here we go,those are my favorite fighting games ever,but this right up there for me. I really the action/adventure feel of "Soul Caliber 6. I have like a lot of the characters and I have 4 favorites in this game. When guys to the playing the fighting games,this is one I will definitely be watching. I gotta say really enjoyed the your intro,it was pretty hilarious 😄👍
Haha, glad the intro got you to laugh 😜🤗
I could teach you a lot about the history of Soul Calibur.
We look forward to learning lore about the game and world 😀
@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames If you are up for it, I can get you the storyline typed by me to you in a few days.
A underrated Gem of a game!
😎🤩🥳
The characters that have Soul Charge are Grøh, Azwel, Kilik, Nightmare, Sophita, Tira, Voldo, now some of them have a second super and some don’t also Voldo is the only character who can engage in Reversal Edge backturned
I forgot to mention Hilde, and Geralt have Soul Charge
😎👍🙂
my favourtie characters from this franchise are Kilik, Maxi, Cervantes, Astaroth (who is just 3 in the first Soul Calibur game btw xD) , Zasalamel, Azwel
Cassandra and Sophitia are sister and Sophitia got 2 kids called Patroklos and Pyrrha who were i an older Soul Calibur game
Cervantes is the father of Ivy
Geralt from The Witcher series is one of the many guest characters, there was also Link from the Zelda Franchise, Yoda and Darth Vader, Heihachi, Spawn, Kratos, Ezio from Assassins Creed and Devil Jin
Nice. Ezio made an appearance 😀 wouldn’t have expected that one 😯
2B is from Nier Automata, a different game. And that last samurai is from Samurai Showdown games.
Thanks! 🙂
the nightmare is the evil of sigfrid (emerged from the soul edge sword, sword contrary to the soul callibur), reacts to more
sc in nintendo sc 2, this link
on ps2 is heihachi
on xbox this spawn
on psp is kratos
in sc4 there is yoda and darth vader
Good, soul blade ,not soul calibur
Mortal kombat Deception Fatalities Hara kiris and Death Traps or Shaolin monks Fatalities
Yup. Still planning on eventually getting to those 😅
Abso-fraking-lutely loved and really, Really enjoyed watching your reaction vid to Soul Calibur 6 Supers right here
As I said before, Siegfried, Nightmare, and Ivy are Most Definitely my Abso-fraking-lute favorite characters in the Soul Calibur series
Very good characters to enjoy 😎🤟🤩 and we liked learning about Nightmare in our Death Battle reaction 🙂
If you two have ever thought about Dungeons and Dragons, you should totally react to JoCat’s “A Crap Guide to DnD” series! Most of them are short and you can binge them with the second to last one being 14 minutes and the last one being 22 minutes but it’s all good funny humor!
Thanks for the rec! 😀
I knew Bethany would like ivy lol
😂😜
The ones with the sword and shield are sisters. The younger one is the one that didn't know how to use the powers of the weapons properly.
😎👍🙂 still learning
I think all I need to start every day now is Ken to just look into my eyes and say "Heeeeey, you! :D" lololol
I've put it off a while, but I may need to finally pick up Soul Calibur 6. I know there's a metric ton of DLC now too, so breaking into it with everything ain't gonna be cheap...but man, the previous games were SO fun. I don't usually go for the super bright colors flashy moves type fighter games, but Soul Calibur has always hit a little different for me and I'm not sure why. And getting to play as my boy Geralt sounds pretty dope too, so maybe I should stop stalling lol.
Couple quick notes related to the characters you guys mentioned :D :
1 - There ARE two different sword/buckler characters, Sophitia and Cassandra. They may look kinda the same because they're sisters, with Cassandra being the younger one. Sophitia (the elder) has always been one of my favorites in the series, I dig their whole Greek thing they have going on and Sophitia has always been a bouncy badass with a lot of really fast flurry attacks and a lot of good low/high mixups. I kinda miss her lol...and it's definitely been too long since I've seen her signature "weaponized face-sitting attack" lololol. Some of the stuff these characters do, while never explicit...can border more on the "M" rating than "T" lol.
2 - Like Ivy, the "stripper" character you were talking about lol. She's less stripper, more "Dommy Mommy" lol. She's like in her 50's and still built like THAT, with a very clearly defined dominatrix theme lol. A lot of her voice line callouts use words like "suffer!" and "discpline!" and "squirm!" lolol. Her and Voldo (the creepy mask-wearing weirdo with the fist weapons who likes to spin around and crab-walk) make a good pair, they're both around the same age and have the same fetish gear thing going on lol.
3 - I think I've always kind of slept on Setsuka a bit. Her "sword hidden in the handle of her parasol" thing is a pretty cool idea and blends really well with her really distinguishing vibe of "graceful, reserved beauty that can shift into absolute savagery at the drop of a pin". She's honestly an absolute badass, and manages to pull off the series' pretty standard "everyone is sexy as heck" theme while still being classy and elegant.
Another thing I've always really enjoyed about Soul Calibur games (at least the few most recent ones, from about SC3 on) is the extensive character customization. In the past you've been able to make custom outfits for main characters, or make an entirely new personal character from scratch using a bunch of armor/outfit pieces and the basic weapon/moveset template from one of the story characters. All the customization options are usually separated out into DLC packs that will nickel and dime you into poverty, but it's still pretty cool and I've seen a LOT of really awesome custom characters designed to look like other famous pop culture fighters. A lot of room to get really creative, and one of the big reasons I've always loved the series. :D
Dommy Mommy 😂🤣 never heard that term before but totally stealing it 😁
I really wish that whoever recorded the Critical Edge's would've used each character's unaltered costumes. The colors that they did use made it difficult to focus.
If you guys are interested is reacting to the history of each major character in the game you should react to "history behind the warrior"
Was that Haohmaru from Samurai Shodown?
No way. 😲😲😀😀
That wierd guy voldo.....blind and def....uses his hearing
I ment blind and mute...😋
Some of them turn into Devil form. When it's 1 or a 2. They turn.
😯😈
I would love to see your reaction to a somewhat old video called "Kombat kids", it's the perfect mix between cute and gore
They did that on their 2nd channel you should watch it
We actually did it here czcams.com/video/bHVZbzpjftw/video.html 🙂
I highly recommend you both check out the game trailers for NiEr: Automata
We will 😅
I love me some soul calibur. Thank you once again for a great video. If I may make a suggestion for next fight night... Id recommend the Naruto ninja storm all ultimate jutsu video. I think there's one by Storm master. It's really good and a good intro into Naruto.
Otherwise keep on with all the awesome videos. I love it!
We do plan to check out Naruto and believe storm masters video is the one we will be doing 🙂
Bethany; Nice moves Talim
Talim; I thank you.
Talim best girl.
One of my favorite franchise coming on this channel, just, yes
These are custom costumes though
Yeah it’s always a bummer when costumes are custom so we don’t see original ones on our first watch 🤗
The game enables your fighter to do clothes damage so it just seems like that.
The "stripper" isn't ACTUALLY a stripper.
Thanks for the reaction 👍
Our pleasure, Justin 🥳🥳
I wonder if ending cutscenes would be interesting to check out for you
Hmm. We’ve done those before but generally for games we know a little more about. So maybe a future reaction as we get more into it. Although we may just dive right in 😛
Soul Calibur has always had guest characters that are dope. 2 (my favorite soul calibur) had Link from legend of Zelda, Hihachi from Tekken, and Spawn. 4 had Darth Vader, Yoda, and Star Killer. I forget if 5 had a guest character. I have 5 but really didn't vibe. And as you know, only had 6 for a night 😂 Kratos is also in one of them somewhere.
Sophitia is guest character in Warriors Orochi 3 which the Warriors games are my favorite franchise of all time. I wouldn't say they're top tier games, but I love em. When you can end a five minute battle with over 1000 kills and people constantly telling you how awesome you are is something I enjoy immensely.
Ivy who always has that dominatrx look is considered the hardest character to play in the franchise. So I remember hearing this so I just googled to make sure I was right and all I get are clear "nice guy" written articles, but I heard that each game they made her breast bigger until 3 or 4 and that's when they were like... alright that's enough. But now I can't find that so maybe I just made it up. Also from the quick Google I did I just found out that the developers themselves released a chart of all the women's breast sizes. Ivy is the tallest women at 5'10, and has the largest breast at E-G cup. I don't know why they put 2 letters, maybe one EU and other US or maybe cause they're just guessing with no band size. But let's just go by letter here for a moment. She is 9 inches taller than me and 6 cup sizes smaller. Let me tell you there's a whole section on the wiki for her alone causing controversy of unrealistic body images and showing to much skin. Fuck them I'm a gnome with titties, and buying clothes that fit is hard. I stand behind Ivy... even though she hates her dad, which relatable, and I main Cervantes... which is her dad.
Maxi is also top tier for me. He's a button smash character 😂
Maxi will be Bethany’s main it seems haha. And now the cup conversion conversation from last nights stream makes more sense 😂🤣
I love soul calibur Ken and Bethany it's awesome 👍😎🆒
😎🤟🥳
What's the difference between an umbrella and a parasol?
Parasol is for shade and umbrellas are for rain generally. All parasols are umbrellas but not all umbrellas are parasols 🙂
Cassandra best girl.
😎🤟
Fun Fact: Tekken and Soul Calibur takes place in the same universe, though hundreds of centuries apart. In their creation, Tekken is based on MMA which the moves were choreographed into the games, whereas Soul Cal was more weapons based which before the characters were made the weapons came first.
That isnt confirmed
@@nmcintosh8769 Pretty sure it is doe to Yoshimitsu lore
@@valisterreuben8392 No. Nothong is confirmed. That just have the same name.
Nice fun fact! 🥳🥳
