      From reading the balance changes, seeing the presentation and artistic direction; the game seems in good hands.

      Yeah Tekken really needed real competition, specially after that last lame reveal.

      Btw did they say if VF6 is plan for 2025? I hope it is not 2026

      The blocking animations look amazing.

      The more I watch it, the more I feel like this game is going to snatch up a lot of people from other fighting games. SF6, Tekken, MK and DOA players etc. This revamped look to the fighting and the graphics just looks like something that can't be ignored by fighting game enthusiasts and newcomers alike. Having the RGG team on it is a massive plus.

      I think Sega is trying to introduce time travel shenanigans story wise. This game will tie-in with Project Century in the way Shenmue started off as VF RPG. Seeing the setting and Akira's clothes in the trailer are pointing in that direction. I wonder if Stella is Sara's daughter from the future?

      Really something new here. This'll be interesting.

      Edit: Or IS it camera shake and motion blur hiding a Tekken-style affair? The more I look at the animation...

      Oh well it's still super early, this will all still be in flux for a while. I AM interested to see what they come up with.

      I like VF but I definitely consider myself a DOA player. And yes, I'll be playing this for sure.

      The Direct presentation was good. Their respect for the series and long time players appears sincere.
