Who is the BEST Fighting Game Character?

[@SleepyFey]

I don't need to watch this. Of course the best character is the one I'm losing to and the worst character is the one I'm winning as.

[@ChristopherMoom]

I've been trying my best at these BGM lists for about 3 weeks now and by this point I feel like I'm almost working a job 😭 Intro: Network - Marvel VS. Capcom 2: New Age of Heroes 11:33 Let's Go to Seoul! - Super Smash Bros. Ultimate 13:12 Spinning Bird - Street Fighter EX Plus Alpha 16:22 Theme of Cyclops - Marvel Super Heroes VS. Street Fighter 18:46 Nook's Cranny ~ Welcome to Nook's Cranny! - Animal Crossing: New Horizons 19:54 Break Room - WarioWare: Get It Together! 21:32 ??? Outro: The Legendary Theme (Acoustic) - Gitaroo Man I know the initial incomplete state of this list made for some easy jokes (I'm a Smash fan who's not good at identifying other FGC songs), but, like, dude, there's so many fighting games out there... scavenging through all their OSTs for this one list will take quite a bit of time, I really think this is info that should be given by the video itself

[@Ygdralis]

Found 11:33, it's the 'Let's Go to Seoul' arrangement from Smash Ultimate (original is in Fatal Fury 2)

[@speertime]

Keep it up, you're doing great! Hopefully they realize to start putting a BGM list in the description of every video, it's really not that hard for them.

[@biivamunner3122]

19:59 is the warioware gold menu music

[@ChristopherMoom]

​​@@speertime I appreciate the support, thanks so much I've avoided saying this because I don't want to be too rude, but I really do think that this issue is specifically difficult for the viewers, but mostly easy for the editors. If you edit a video together, you already have a music list by default (I'm not a content creator but as far as I can tell most editing programs will probably show you what audio files you've inserted, in case you forget what songs you put in), it's just a matter of making that music list public

[@ChristopherMoom]

​@@biivamunner3122 Is there a specific song name I should be looking for? Unless I found the wrong song, WarioWare Gold's Menu Theme sounds quite different from what's in this video

[@G0rgar]

I'm not a 3d fighter fan, if I made this list it'd be all 2d characters, and I still thinking putting Heihachi at 20 is *wild.* If you're going to include 3d there is no way that dude isn't at least top ten, if not much higher.

[@dsalucas]

Bridget on the list is funny because she is not at all relevant in the plot of the games, her story mode in her first appearance is a joke about being late to the previous one's plot.

[@TrueCarthaginian]

Ragna above Akuma, Heihachi and Kazuya just really shows that someone in their office really likes Blazblue

[@Briggetchu25]

Nah man the person writing that just hates tekken and tried to over compensate by putting like 5 characters in the bottom 10 Ragna deserves to be on the list, akuma is so low on the list cause if it wasn't everyone 60% of the list would have been sf characters

[@dylansetright3359]

@Briggetchu25 Akuma is absolutely above Ragna, Heihachi and Kazuya are absolutely above Ragna. Hell I'd even put an argument for Mai over Ragna. Just very much seemed like a oh I want him in but let's not make him top 10 and make it too obvious.

[@Briggetchu25]

@ ragna deserves to be on the list, however if every character were in the spot they deserved 80% of the top 10 would be street fighter characters, so characters like ragna got their numbers inflated and characters like the girl from doa got on the list just so they could talk about another series

[@dylansetright3359]

@@Briggetchu25 Ragna is fine to have on the list but far too high. BlazBlue has literally never been a system mover, SoulCal at one point at least was. Though she didn't belong top 10 either. Ragna should have been early in the list 11 is wild for him putting him above Akuma. But no it wouldn't be 80% SF. Cause MK has at least 3-4 characters that can slot in, Tekken has at least 4-5 cause like no King mentioned but he's more iconic than more than half of the list. It'd be mostly the big three but at the end of the day that makes more sense than going oh yeah Ragna over Heihachi, Kazuya and Akuma

[@eqix2456]

@dylansetright3359 I agree. With how much blazblue itself did for not only arc sys but fighting games in general, ragna should probably be around 20-16. The most egregious person on this list is probably morrigan tbh, she's a popular character in her own right but ask anyone outside the fgc what series she comes from and you'd most likely get just confused faces (Also Bridget is at MOST top 50)

[@shark_gaming_0]

21:31 Coney is truthing with this take Huge companies are pushing harder and harder, but their projects just aren’t hitting the mark. Whether it’s boring, unfun, or repetitive, these companies are just not learning what the people want And he’s right about the “People probably don’t want new things” take. It’s risky to put a large amount of money, effort, and time into a new IP just for it to underperform. New IPs need to hit perfectly, or be left out in the rain

[@ShadowAce70]

"XV looks ugly" I saw you guys play rivals and multiversus, your words don't hurt me

[@Altares_V]

Multiversus doesn't look ugly though. It definitely looks a bit souless and is lacking something in the UI department but the models for the actual iconic characters don't look too off. But hey CotW does actually look great maybe it is because of the trailer magic but those models look smoother than they've ever been in 3D.

[@brewslidepark]

Multi versus is ugly as fuck lol

[@bumibomber]

Im an fg player first and foremost, xv is absolitely ugly and its mostly cause its so uncanny. Its like so close to looking decent but its so overly lit and untextured it looks wrong. Multiversus looks good in art direction but has terrible animation to gameplay and incredibly ugly outlines, and rivals looks good enough for a low budget title cause it doesnt try to imitate realistic humans lol

I was so confused by the ordering in the fighting game characters one. In what world are Ragna the Bloodedge and Fulgore above Heihachi Mishima and Akuma? In what world is Haohmaru above Heihachi Mishima? None of those characters are more iconic or interesting than him. I even like KI but I would hesitate to put any of that series' characters on the list. I have no problem with most of the characters on the list but the ordering of them makes no sense.
