Skullgirls Gameplay From ReveLAtions and ECT3

by Keits on June 29th, 2011 at 3:03 pm

Thanks to theBBVlog and OmegaNitro, we have a few Skullgirls matches to share with you today. These are from the test version being shown at various fighting game events. The first clip is Tatsu from Team Hori using Ratio 1 Filia against my team of Peacock/Cerebella/Filia. The second clip is again of Tatsu’s Filia fighting against Dacudbro’s Cerebella/Filia/Peacock, so you can see just how dangerous a ratio 1 character can be. The final clip is a series of matches between Skullgirls’ lead designer Mike Z and the insufferable Master Chibi.(nsfw)

Video 2 and 1:00; GARBAGE DAY!! My God, MikeZ, I love you.
- Shinji Mimura
  
  I was just about to notice that. I can only wonder how many people are aware of where that came from…
  
  GARBAGE DAY!

  NO WAY. YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME.
  
  I’m fucking sold.

So can anyone explain what the ratio 1 is all about? Why is 1 against 3 characters? Not enough characters to use?
- Mightfo
  
  It’s like a mixture of the Marvel/CVS systems. You can have your team be 3 characters like normal, or 2 stronger characters, or 1 extra strong character. Some characters obviously lean towards one setup or another.(Cerebella might make a decent solo character, and Peacock probably benefits from assists too much to pass up)
  It’s supposed to be balanced between fighting as just 1 versus 3, but I honestly sort of doubt that will last at high level play unless the damage and health boost is absolutely insane. Assists/red life is too much to pass up. That’s just my opinion, though.

Amazing zoning by Peacock in the first video, loving her playstyle, that assist was really good too that was helping her.
Alkipot

I wasn’t so sure about this game, but that “Peacock” special/finish move at the end of the first video was pretty badass. The playstyle reminds me of darkstalkers/vs. series, but that’s a good thing to me. Looks quite fun even if I’m not a great fan of the character art. Will keep an eye out on how this turns out.

Since you can make your assist do any motion you can think of pre-match, can you input option selects??!!? O_O
- Good Game Player
  
  no, the game detects what motion you did and asks you if it got the right move, then it does that move when you call assist. it doesn’t play back the exact motion you did every time you call assist.
- ironboy89
  
  There is no ghetto unblockables/invincble assist that can not be punished that’s why they can do custom assist.
Vaarp

I’m hyped for this game, every video and every char look better as time passes.
Darkshy

What I like is that the hate for this game has completely shifted. I think people see how much promise this game has
Prophestus

Game looks so good.

In Soviet Russia, women Lariat with their hair?
- Dimitri Lionheart
  
  Cerebella fights with a hat but still funny joke…would of been funnier if Mike Z were playing the first match <<;
  
  Also…wtf Cerebella has super armor move now? and can dash past the enemy….jesus! deadly grappler ahead!
  - Good Game Player
    
    similar deal to potemkin’s hammerfall.
GreenJester627

Man this game is looking great. I’d love to see more characters though. Supposed to be coming out this year and there’s still 6-8 more characters that haven’t been seen in full on action yet.

And a hell yeah to the Silent Film Peacock
alvare

Filia even has Millia’s 2HS … xP
6ixx

I really love the game but I hope there will be a turbo game speed setting because it looks a little slow, in my honest opinion. It seems a little too defensive? That’s just my 2 cents though.
1cepick

Skullgirls’ graphics looked average on the ReveLAtions stream so I’m surprised that it actually looks great above. It probably might look even better in person.
AmishOpiate

I feel like keep away in early builds is always so overpowered, it was frustrating to watch Tatsu try to learn how to play the game, while Kiets walked backwards and pressed buttons.
NyuBomber

GARBAGE DAY, heck yes Peacock you are my main.

Game’s looking great overall, though the on-hit/block sound effects are still underwhelming me. Will be a little thing if they stay the same through release, though.
tempbast

Very awesome gameplay! There have a been a few previews on the tracks by Michiru Yamane, which sounded sick. But hopefully the PSN title will also enable custom track playback. That would be doing everyone a solid.
Omni Select

Does anyone else just see crap flying all over the screen with the other person not having a choice besides waiting, taking chip damage or getting hit? I guess to some its game play.
- Good Game Player
  
  day 0 matches. nice whiner mentality you have there.
- Dimitri Lionheart
  
  Well if it makes you feel any better, I noticed in these new video that pushblock has been added….but I dont think it can be abused as much like in Marvel vs Capcom 3
- AmishOpiate
  
  It takes a lot more skill and knowledge of the game to get around keep away than it does to do keep away, so you have to remember that. Matches aren’t going to look like that once the game gets out, you’re just seeing a very low risk/high reward strategy that is dominant on Day 0. Remember how awesome everyone thought Arthur was going to be in MvC3 lol.

OMG! She said Garbage Day!! My neck-beard friends and I say that everyday! LOL!!! Does nyan cat pop out and sing Friday while doing the caramel dance, too? Get hype!!!
WINBACK

The fact that this game (which is nowhere near ready to be released) already has a ridiculous amount of overexaggerated/vivid fan art pretty much illustrates the main attraction that people have towards it.

It’s no wonder that the only fighting games people take seriously are made from Capcom (and it’ll stay that way).
- LuMaLo
  
  lol, people as in… “the idiots from srk who think they are the majority???” because everywhere else in the world we see people playing kof, ah, bb, gg, tekken, vf… etc. Sooo eeehhh yeah… shut up
white shadow

May I be privy to the “Garbage Day” reference?

I love B&W Peacock, and I’m loving everything I’ve seen so far.

  search it on youtube
Last Dragon

Wasn’t at all interested in this game for a very long time. I thought it was just another cat fighter but it’s really starting to grow on me. The more I see it the better it seems. Definitely looking into buying this now.
ElvenShadow

looking good. really wanna play it
Diernes

This game looks a bit too wierd for me… but since it’s using GGPO will probably be a day one buy

Looks too much like BlazBlue.
- factory9
  
  I don’t see where you’re coming from on that. It looks nothing like Blazblue. You might as well say this game looks like SSF4.
guitalex2007

GARBAGE DAY! Honeestly, this made me want to play as Peacock.
The Big B

Hmmm this game looks like it has lots of promise
Windsagio

catchphrases are more important than giving something new I guess :p

Game seriously looks shockingly pedestrian, once you get past the insane (terrible) visuals.

Mike Z words can’t describe how much I want you to take all of my money so instead here is the hulk to say it better: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NX5sDIAVXDE#t=00m48s
