Minor freudian slip on my part at 0:33 - She and Brian Braddock (shown on the comic page at that part) are the twin siblings; Jamie's their older brother. Thanks to @susanstorm7910 for catching that error on my end.

Were there any extensive changes to Psylocke in MVC2? Last bit didn't cover her regular gameplay.

@TheSeventhForce 6 ай бұрын

Not really. Most that changed was her Hop Kick got moved to F+HK since mediums got consolidated into lights in Marvel 2 across the board and she lost her upwards Psi-Blast. Both things saw so little use in previous games that I didn't think it was really worth mentioning.

Excellent, meticulously made video as usual Seventh, but as an avid formerly competitive MVC2 player I need correct some minor errors. Her Psyblade AAA does create a hard knockdown but it is rollable, the player actually connects with their opponent in a knocked down state before they touch the ground. Magneto benefits because his C.LK comes out at frame 1 and needs little timing to juggle. Also, she has actually has a triple jump in MVC2 and lastly her Psy-projectiles have an interesting property of not interacting with other projectiles, passing through them, which can lead to interesting pressure scenarios. Regardless, good work! I can't wait to see you tackle Spiral and her wacky lore and moveset. Arguably the most original Marvel vs character in the roster design~wise.

I never knew Psylocke had such a complex backstory... then again, this IS X-Men, so I probably should have had a hunch xD MvC was my first time ever seeing that she even existed, and I was excited to finally play as her in MvC2, her badass design and stylish abilities, plus just being fun to play made her a pretty frequent go-to. Also, my friends and I back then always heard all of her attack calls as her just saying "Psylocke", giving the running joke between us that she was actually a Pokemon

My girl, Psylocke! I remember my first time seeing her in action in the arcades in COTA and I her immensely cool with ninja entrance, her graceful movements in game and her cool ninjitsu powers. Ever since then she became one of my favorite fighter game characters and even one of my favorite ninjas in general. Great video!

Glad that you got to Psylocke! Another X-Queen that I love. I’m glad I knew about her thanks to Marvel Super Heroes. Next to Rogue and Storm, she’s definitely one of the hottest X-Men. A great character and a badass warrior. Another one of my fictional crushes hehe. Her animations are also lovely and I like how well Capcom devs captured her coolness and beauty.

I do have one question about Capcom’s sprite of Psylocke. Why exactly is her skin yellow like a Simpsons character? In the comics and all the shows she’s appeared in, she has a more natural skin tone? Was it a stylistic choice like orange Spider-Man, light-blue Venom, dark brown and cyan War-Machine?

2:15 Beyond Psylocke/Spiral/Storm/Jill, seems that a suspicious something rounds Catherine DIsher's Voice Works. Indications points her as the only female singer to the lyrics' song of MVC2, like "I wanna take you for a ride". Those tones are suspectly nearby and she's one of fewer female voices in team.

@TheSeventhForce 6 ай бұрын

I doubt it's Disher; the vocals in MvC2's character select theme are sampled from a trance single (unsurprisingly) named Take You For a Ride by an artist called G-String released in 1997.

@TheSeventhForce Great breakdown on my girl Psylocke. I agree with you about the music & backgrounds in X-Men: COTA & in Marvel Super Heroes, they were visual beauties. Those 2 games came out in my junior & senior year of high school(I graduated in 1996, MSH came out in late 1995) & IMO, MSH Psylocke was better than COTA Psylocke because she had more moves & so forth but she still took below normal damage yet gave Akuma like style damage EDIT: In Marvel Super Heroes activate Power Gem with Psylocke, perform a basic chain combo & end it with the Psi-Maelstrom & keep mashing the buttons. Guaranteed 100% damage

Ah, Psylocke. A character who you couldn’t seem to name in adaptations because it was so messy. Like, Dr Droom in the 1930’s turning East Asian when he learned from Tibetan mystics messy. She’s also the icon of the infamous “Psylocke pose” where the comics would distort her spine to show images of both her chest and backside. Fortunately, from about 2017, Betsy is back in her own body and Kwannon (silent w) is in the Psylocke body with the code name. She’s definitely the breakout star of Krakoa.

So Psylocke... hot take incoming, I don't really care all that much for her, and I don't mean just in the Vs series, I don't read comics so maybe there's something I'm missing, but there isn't really anything I can say I like, her powers aren't that interesting to me, her design is nothing to write home about imo, and her story isn't all that interesting ether, maybe I'll like her more when I get around to trying to play her, but for right now, I wouldn't put her on the list if you asked me for 15 Marvel females I would like to see in this series. (Returning or not) Also one thing I can say is Vs series specific, why is her sprite so... keen on exaggerating her... lady bits... she just looks more cartoonishly overdone than every other female character in this series, like are you okay woman?

@TheSeventhForce 6 ай бұрын

She's cool, but also relatively straightforward to play as with no real standout mechanics or anything, so that's fair. As for her sprite, that's par the course for 80s/90s Capcom artists. There's an interview floating around the internet with Yoko Shimomura where she mentions talking to Chun-Li's character designer during SF2's development and he went on a whole uncomfortable tangent on how important it is that Chun-Li have thick thighs and she said the whole conversation kind of creeped her out. Talented folks for sure, but yeah.
