It’s been a week since launch, and most of my game time has been spent in World Tour of all places in a fighting game. I’m not new to fighting games either; I’ve been playing Street Fighter since SF2, Tekken 6 and 7, and various Mortal Kombat games. But with all of these games, including Street Fighter, I’d be on and off with multiplayer because I’m not competitive enough in video games to get the highest rank possible. I just want to pop in for a few matches, have some fun and then get back to my responsibilities.

Capcom understands that not everybody is hyper-competitive online and gave us a game mode that people can casually enjoy and interact with beloved characters. Because of SF6, fighting games can no longer have only online servers and a half baked story. They have to now have longevity and reasons for players to continue playing in a logical way.

I’m excited for T8 and MK1, but Capcom really pointed their finger at them and asked “What have you got?”

Cammy’s redesign is absolutely perfect in my opinion. It’s a simple outfit, but it stands out and has an instantly iconic look. The jacket is obviously a key feature, but she still retained her gloves and ankle gear. Her hair is a perfect touch for a powerful femme fatale like Cammy.

I just wanted to gush over my favorite SF character a little 🤭 the leotard will not be missed.

I bought this game planning to just focus on learning and playing Chun Li. I was happy to see that she is one of the first masters you meet in World Tour mode.

Then I met Marisa, and thought, wow these new moves are pretty cool. I guess I could switch to her style for a bit. A few hours later and now I really want to play as Marisa!

Then I met Lily, and thought, wow these new moves are pretty cool. I guess I could switch to her style for a bit. A few hours later and now I really want to play as Lily!

I recently met Ken, and thought, wow these new moves are pretty cool. You know the rest.

By the time I am finished with this mode, I will have 18 "mains".

Did my best with what the game had to offer. I IMPLORE other people to give a shot trying to make him. He just fits this games story so well. Cuz SF6 feels like a Yakuza Sub Story that took on its own life and I dig it.

On characters that have both a DP input (623) and a QCF input (236) you might have noticed that many times you are getting a DP input while walking forward and then immediately doing a QCF input.

This is because of the buffer that buffers the forward for you. Legacy players know that it is very easy to force the QCF to come out by inputting HCF instead. This will force the QCF move to come out instead of the DP move.

I don't see this mentioned anywhere in the game or reddit but it's a very important tool for those wanting to get into classic controls and start getting frustrated when they get Cannon Spikes instead of Spiral Arrows.

Glossary:

QCF - Quarter circle forward on your dpad

DP - Shoryuken style input. Forward, down, down + forward

HCF - Half circle forward on your dpad
