Have capcom said anything about Urien or are they still acting like he hasn't been finished for three months

They're really good at minimizing any amount of hype around anything to do with this game. Part of me figures its because they know the reality will never live up to even the smallest amount of hype.

There are two ways to go about things like this. A small reveal early on showing a bit of a character and slowly revealing more details until the release date you've set and come public with is reached and the character is released. This approach is kinda eh because SF5 characters aren't interesting enough to stretch out details, and Capcom definitely can't keep a consistent release for anything. Or you can just come out with a hype trailer at the end of a tourney and go "yeah the character is out RIGHT NOW/TOMORROW" which is 100% what they will do EXCEPT they've already blown their load on the reveal and they basically put him in the loving game and people have been playing him for months.

Yeah putting the fully compete character in the game way ahead of his "release" is just completely insane

Yeah, I was thinking a few days ago that this is pretty similar with regards as to what happened with SFxT, but the difference here is four of the characters were already out and you knew ahead of the time about these chars whereas SFXT tried to keep it secret until the vita version was ready to be out out and would reveal it then, but some people looked through discs and found them.

Even that is different though, because those characters weren't playable for months and then tried to be launched as if it was new. It's weird in SFV

Those characters were playable for months because people could hack their games and unlock the content. I use hack p loosely here as it was a super trivial thing.

I get why they added the characters, they needed to give people a reason to get into Story Mode, but I mean, they could've at least put in "incomplete" versions like MKX did. Although they can't win regardless because then people would go "haha, Capcom can't finish their DLC characters, it's gonna come out like that", etc, etc. Still, it would've been smarter in terms of hyping up future content. Right now Urien isn't even out and yet he feels old-hat.

It's kinda sad, because I'm super behind Capcom trying out this long-term support, microtransaction financed BS for fighting games, it's just that they are so BAD at it. I look at KI and although I think that game is legit dumb at least they know what they're doing in that regard, while Capcom is constantly putting out fires with gasoline and not addressing basic stuff.

These matches are pretty old + this matchup is kinda bad for Balrog TBF

I think the problem is that it "feels" worse for the majority of players to guess wrong several times and take several mid-sized chunks of damage as opposed to eating one big combo from a key mistake that may range from guessing wrong in a mixup to just poor spacing or decision making. The former easily feels like the only solution is to "guess better" while the latter you can have a wide variety of options, though in reality you can do many things about the former, usually being some variation of "not getting in that situation in the first place".

Of course, if your character has to constantly fight in situations that are ripe for Zangief to turn into RPS situations it can become annoying really quick.

That looks annoying as gently caress but is there a reason we didn't see a bunch of throw attempts instead of jabs?

Throws are hugely punishable, and easy to dodge if the opponent is prepared to. Spamming jab is a lot safer, and gief's jab is has a huge hitbox and 3 active frames (most jabs have 2). It's not much damage so giefs tend to spam jab when the opponent is low on health, since a lot of people actually have trouble getting around its hitbox. Pr Rog manages to get some hits in but you can see how much trouble he's having trying to get in.
