The people hating and ranting will always have some bs/typical excuse and most console players on here just want the pc version to fail, so it's not really going to help much :/ It's honestly really sad considering how Okubo already stated multiple times that, if SoulCalibur 6 doesn't do well, that's the end of the series. I appreciate you taking time out of your day to try and help people understand but they're not going to listen in all honestly. I can not stress this enough, SHE WAS NOT GOING TO BE IN THE GAME AT ALL.

#SOULCALIBUR 6 TIRA FULL#
Development for her started near/at the end of the development for the full game.

She still wouldn't even be in the game, if not for Okubo convicing them to make a EXTRA character. They can only make characters that are actually relevent to the story, and as such, Tira wasn't featured in the base roaster, until Okubo himself went to the dev team, and went through long discussions and had developmental changes made to the game. They are working with limited time, and probably a limited budget as well. They can't just go around adding characters simply because they featured on one of the old Soul Calibur games, or even because they are popular. They are running everything on a new engine, and have to recreate all the characters for said engine. Getting her as Paid DLC was, once again, probably one of the ONLY ways to get her put in the game. That's not how development works, ESPECIALLY considering how Bandai Namco already considered SoulCalibur a dead francise. No, they can't just "take the burden" and add EXTRA, non-planned, characters to the game, for no cost. She didn't have a big enough part, if any part at all, in Soul Calibur 6's story to be included in the base roaster. He wanted people to know that they were listening to feedback, since she wasn't even planned to be in the base roaster. Okubo go her put in Day 1 because he wanted the hardcore Tira fans to know she was in the game, even if they had to purchase her. People like Jim Sterling are making it look FAR worse then it actually is, and everyone is jumping on this hate bandwagon for no reason.Įdit: I think everyone is still missing the point of this post. It's the one thing I hate about all the Anti-Tira DLC videos and discussions coming out. Development was already finished by the time they started to make her. They pretty much HAD to make her DLC, otherwise there was no way she was getting in the game. She shouldn't even be in the game in the first place because of the timeline and when the story is set. Even then, Okubo himself also said he wanted to make her free, but after long discussions, the company ended up making her paid. The only reason she is in the game in the first place is because Okubo went to the dev team and got her put in the game as a direct result of him looking at fan feedback. Did you really expect them to make her free, after having to change development and make a extra character AFTER THE GAME IS ALREADY DONE?ĭue to the timeline of Soul Calibur 6, Tira shouldn't even be in the game. Okubo himself had to go to the dev team and get her put in AFTER THE GAME WAS FINISHED, resulting in complicated changes in development. Just stop and actually think about it for a second.
