Ryu in SF3 being as skilled as Evil Ryu in SFA1? That's stupid. Evil Ryu was just as "skilled" as Ryu in SFA1, only more powerful.
not true. i'm talking about skill as "fighting powers" not "raw strength". if you are as familiar with japanese engrish and their confusion of words as i am you'd know this instantly. we see it all the time in videogames, amime and manga.
for eg:
-hajime no ippo, the hero's biggest rival is an outboxer with fragile hands and is known to have weak punches unless he puts his full weight into it. but whenever they compare him to the hero (who is an infighter with insane punching power) they always say that Miyata is stronger than ippo. why? its because miyata is a natural, is vastly more skilled than ippo and has tons of experience i.e he has better fighting powers.
-X-men VS Sf, the exact words ryu uses on apocolypse are "for now let the stronger survive". in base physical strength, its not even a joke because apocolypse is like 3 times his size even in normal hieght.
i could go on but this is enough for any idiot to understand.
Darkhadou is an overall increase in fighting powers. SF3 ryu has as much fighting powers as SF1 evil ryu....not raw strength. same way it states that evil ryu is as "strong" as Akuma i.e. he is as skilled/fighting potential is the same. saying anything otherwise is downright dumb and can be contradicted from about a ton of in-game evidence. for starters:
-if SF3 hogan is as strong as SF1 evil ryu than he can also sink islands. but we know he can't because he had trouble lifting a boulder.
-if SF3 ryu is as strong as SF1 evil ryu then he should've put down hugo hard because not only was it something even harder than metsushoryuken but it was the shitshoryuken he did. but he didn't even scar hugo.........and notice that hugo's SF3 endings ARE canon. no scars.
you all have an open invitation to prove me wrong.
Read what I put again. Strong & skilled are not the same thing here either
yes they are in japanese media. read up anime and manga and you'll see what i'm talking about. same as "l" and "r" aren't the same thing but a japanese person has a time of his life telling the difference. dah. gosh, you americans are so ethnocentric 😂
Ditto. Dark Hadou represents a power increase, not a skill increase.
then explain the above.
People can't accept Hugo having a chin. He took a hit. OK. Anybody w/a brain knows that feat is to show how tough Hugo is, not how weak Ryu is. You guys can keep acting dumb if ya want to. People will think you're not really acting after a while though. Is FF Streetwise even canon?
right...so your explanation is that a regular midtier joe like hugo has more endurance than a f00kin island? 😬
There was an Evil Ryu in the first street Fighter, Since when ?
you're kidding right? do some homework man 😐
Because the attacks are totally different, one is a burning napalm-ish attack, and the other is a shattering blunt force attack?
hadoukens officially feel like kicks or punches so they are also "blunt forcish".
