not even exciting since it leaked early

hi evil ryu
---

does anyone even care anymore
---

Another evil version of Ryu was about the last thing I wanted in an update

Hopefully the other characters this season are awesome
---

so have we reached the point where they're just totally phoning it in
---

I guess it's cool they gave Evil Ryu a name. I guess.

I dunno. They had a bunch of characters I was hype for in the last season but I just couldn't bring myself to come back for them. Maybe if they give me Adon, Dan, or Abel.

I think this game is such damaged goods at this point. They had something here with the concept of having a pseudo free-to-play model, but they kind of messed that up, especially with a season 2 of nothing but new characters. I just don't like how SFV plays for the most part. And I think that's what keeps me away most of anything.

Street Fighter is one of those series I always wanted to get good at and just never did.
---

SFV is such a disappointment =/

What other characters
---

Also, I'm assuming they didn't get as much back from the last season as they expected. Because that one came with its own intro video showing off everyone who is coming up in the season. Now we just have a trailer for one dude who is basically just an altered existing model.

So... underwhelming to say the least. They didn't even hint at who else is in this upcoming season either. I kinda hope that Mortal Kombat does this seasons thing right with their battle passes. That's a series I wish had as much support and longevity as SFV does.
---

I assume that had more to do with it becoming Arcade Edition too, but you're probably not wrong
---

While I was being facetious originally, the fact that they're only selling Kage separately and didn't even announce any kind of character pass whatsoever leads me to believe there may not be other characters coming.
---

The only thing we have to go on in terms of that is that the game updated to version 4.0 when Kage came out

"Kage is available for MSRP $5.99/5.99/4.99 or 100,000 Fight Money on December 16 along with battle balance changes and new moves for certain characters!

Kage is only the beginning of the next season of Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition! Were doing things differently this year, so were eager to share the details with you soon! Thank you for all the continued support. We cant wait to show off whats next in 2019!"

Why do I feel like this may not be great?
---

all I want is a 2nd season to the cinematic story mode
---

If the first cinematic story was any good, I would be about that.

But uh... It was kind of very bad.
---

I thought it was bad in a good way

no it was just bad

I think as a counter to Evil Ryu / Violent Ken they should put out Super Friendly Dan.

Friendly Dan and Good Guy

I appreciated a couple things in the story mode. Like, seeing some characters in action were cool (namely Bison, Balrog, Ryu, and Zangief), but man. The story was really bad and a character like Fang wasn't compelling enough in his role. And Rashid was just strange in his role too, especially with his bodyguard that can inexplicably only go "Master". And Charlie seemed kind of wasted also.

Like, it was just super poor story telling. And they utterly ruined any intrigue of Necalli just being a dude who can turn into a puddle, even though it's not hinted anywhere in his character when he fights? It just seemed poorly planned out and could have been a lot more fun if they had a better idea of what to do with each character rather than going "Oh uh... he does this. And I don't know how this part of their story resolves."

I was hoping it would be Kage from Virtua Fighter and now I'm sad
