My God the Soul Calibur V Character Creator Is Insane
All right, Soul Calibur V. You got me. I was genuinely thinking about not purchasing you, or at least waiting until some reviews to see how your gameplay stacked up against previous iterations before I decided. Then this video of your absolutely batshit insane character creator shows up, and it singlehandedly brought me back on board. It’s not being able to choose body types and sizes and parts, because that was a long time coming, frankly. But the clothing patterns and tattoos and designs and the ability to put them anywhere on your character, any location, any size, any angle? That’s pretty amazing. Clearly, the only limit to character creation is only my incredibly short attention span. Well done.
