So here we are with some of my thoughts on Fatal Fury City of the Wolves from my hands on time at the Summer Game Fest! Ill say it quick there is timestamps, and I sorta did the vid backwards talking about hardcore mechanics talk before talking about my general thoughts, so use timestamps to skip around I guess lol, thats just how my brain works and always thinking about how everything works first. Anyways GAME GOOD, I LIKE IT!!!

In the next day or two expect a couple city of the wolves character specific videos as well. Probably Preecha and Vox. Vox is all new, Preecha isn't, but with what I learned about her it made me realize there's almost no actual info about her and there's quite a bit to her so... yeah we will dig in! I barely touched rock and Terry in my time cause while they are neat and all, they are very known quantifies, rock and terry play like rock and terry. So I went for the unexplored territory!

Art style always trumps sheer fidelity.

Ok I'm going to throw something out into the universe that has no chance of coming into reality, but that I couldn't stop thinkin' about all video. Juri Han as a guest character. Just hear me out. We got Terri coming to SF6. It's only fair if SNK borrows somebody for their own game. Ryu... is cool, and all, but a little dry for a system with so many cancels baked into it Juri, though? Juri *sells*. And Juri has always had Feng Shui engine. Her kit is basically built to allow her to cancel everything in to everything! You wouldn't even need to mess around with her much to fit her in, and she'd bring over a bunch of curious Capcom fans.

I gotta say, this is so far one of the nicest looking fighting games this generation. There's a lot of variety in visuals now with CotW thrown into the mix. I think this, SF6 and Granblue are the best looking games with the most variety. CotW is a modern mix of American Comic Books and Japanese character designs with a strong emphasis on stylized shading, colors, and effects. SF6 has a cool urban theme and the most attention to detail with the best mixture of realism, stylized characters, and high quality animations. Granblue is the best looking anime styled fighting game right now with super nice backgrounds and the fantastic "limited" animations that ArcSys tends to use.

The "Ah Shit" from Vox had me legitimately laughing out loud. I'll definitely have to check him out when the game comes out. Hope they announce at least 1-2 more grapplers. Perhaps a smaller/pixie grappler. Honestly, the free-form nature is a little intimidating as someone who's really only played SF6. Seems like there's a lot of options/mechanics that could feel a bit overwhelming to newer fighting game players.
