What if that was Honda and he went Rastafarian on us.
Looks to be a new character, villain even if I would guess. Those dreads...
???Meh, Ken looks as boring as ever. Wake me when Urien is here.
Capcom did say they weren't going to make clones anymore.At least they made him more distinct from previous iterations.
Ken has no interesting mechanics, hes the same old shit in every game. Now he's got more ways to do flame torando kicks, so exciting! Him, Ryu, Cammy and Chun are all painfully dull. But they gotta get these tired and predictable characters out of the way to keep the fans happy(who for some reason value nostalgia over creativity or innovation).???
What part of that trailer looked boring?
Him and Charlie/Nash look the most fun so far.
Chun-Li used to look fun too but then they removed her air cartwheel and OTG kick.
Try watching the trailer againKen has no interesting mechanics, hes the same old shit in every game. Now he's got more ways to do flame torando kicks, so exciting!

That's no Honda. That's a new character right there. Supposedly from New ZealandNow that I look at it...it may be an updated Honda....I thought Urien but lets see
Alright, watched it again, still looks boring as fuck and completely lacking anything worth getting excited for. Now what did I miss again? He's got a few new things, nothing substantially new to the game as a whole. Am I supposed to get excited for a slightly different way to use my tornado kick from the air? Some different juggle properties? He still has most of the same old shit, he'll most likely just be a more aggressive Ryu like he always has. I want unique gameplay mechanics, divekicks, fireballs and uppercuts are not that. Simple enough to understand?Try watching the trailer again
This time with your eyes open
Play as in present tense? No, but I played several versions of 4, several versions of 2, a bit of 3S and played Alpha when I was a kid and the SF characters in the Marvel games. Ken and Ryu are probably the most boring SF characters in existence while they've gotten more distinct over time their differences are negligible. Flame uppercuts here, some flame tornado kicks here, slightly different footsies, etc etc.Do you play Streetfighter?
Air lightning legs? That shit hasn't be new or interesting since I was a child. That move was pointless and uninteresting in 4(the lightning legs, not the air aspect) and seems to be the same in 5. It's a complete nostalgia and visual move, people like it cause it looks cool and it's a classic of the series. I can't imagine it being used much out of combos and if it is then cool it serves the purpose of a footsie but is a footsie tool that's that simple supposed to get me hyped? I don't care about bringing back staples of the franchise I just want characters to drastically new things or just see new characters entirely. Which I know is a lot to ask from a SF game.Ken has similar special attacks to Ryu yes, but the similarities at this point stop there. Ken is definitely way more rushdown focused whereas Ryu had a more patient game to him. This is true in every game since Alpha, and is only even more extended here in SFV with their V-Triggers being completely different. Not to mention Ken now has a run via his V-Skill to cancel into a normal or Special.
... To reiterate what @Notez4 said, do you play Street Fighter?
Chun-Li literally got air lightning legs and has new moves she didn't have before. Cammy had several alterations especially to her Hooligan stance and Spinning Back Knuckle with new normals...
What about Bison, or are you gonna tell me scissor kicks/knee press bores you too?
