    Streets of Rage 4 is a brand new entry in the classic Sega Genesis series, developed by Dotemu, Lizardcube and Guard Crush Games. They had big shoes to fill, and I think the game they made is more than worthy of its name.

    Credits: 1:58:52
    A few areas went really badly in this run, namely the stage 9 elevator and the stage 12 area with the robot midboss thing. Other than that it wasn't too bad. The highlight is probably just showing my strategy for the stage 7 boss. Get her health down to right before she's about to call for reinforcements, then spend all of your resources to do as much damage as you can in a single combo. I'm sure there are more damaging combos than what I used here, but this worked well enough to get through the fight without dying, so I consider it a success.
    Axel is definitely the weakest character out of the main cast, at least. He's slow and doesn't have great special attacks, and his grand upper has a lot of recovery. He does have a few good points though - his throws are good, he has a good jump kick, and he can do a lot of damage whenever you can safely land the forward+special multi hit combo. I like playing as him, but it can be a struggle.

I typically bring the last spear and slice until gone and then I do a lot of throwing enemies at each other and then when most are on the same side I throw the butcher knives and it kills most of them. I've had a number of times I would be one hit or so away from dying and then I use the the butcher knife and/or super to clear the way toward the pizzas (in my case).

    One more thing: my interpretation of this Axel is, he still has the fire but he doesn't have the rage anymore. Maybe his resolve is different now. Even watching his playstyle vs the other versions, there's a calmness to this Axel. To me anyway. Is it just me?

    • @umiiruka07
      @umiiruka07 4 ปีที่แล้ว +12

      @The monster under your bed Alright, here are my observations that led me to that notion:
      1. Listen to all the noise the other Axels make when attacking. Then go back to SOR4 Axel. He is considerably quieter.
      2. Look at their facial expressions when attacking (and their voices again). In the neutral stance, he's always appeared level headed. I would submit that people don't isolate themselves for 10 years just because; he practiced and searched for wisdom and knowledge... And I suspect he wanted peace, too.
      3. Notice the focus and control he now has in that side kick. You can tell he made a point to practice that. That was one of the first things I picked up on: the other Axels lean over somewhat uncomfortably IMO.
      4. Perhaps it's me going a bit far, but compare SOR4 Axel's aura to SOR4 Adam's.
      There seems to be an intensity, a "don't screw with me" vibe from Adam, even in his stride; whereas I feel that Axel seems somewhat gentler in comparison... That might be just me. SOR4 Adam's vibe: "Come get some." SOR4 Adam's vibe: "You don't impress me. But a fight's a fight."
      5. While I typed 4, another idea came to mind: look at his overall style/appearance. To me, in a way, it feels like he kinda let things go. Not in a don't care fashion, he obviously was training. Like his hair and beard, maybe he said, "Meh, it's all good." And then the sweater around his waist is super chill and comfy lol.

On the airfield, if you manage to corner the cop, and have one odd the girls behind you chucking the electric potions, if she throws it right, the cop "catches" it. It lands right about where his hand is, and spins. He stopped moving as long as I did. If I recall, he caught about 6, maybe 7 potions, then dropped them. Lost my whole life bar.

    I see it needs an SOR3 running and rolling system for all default chars, a blocking mechanic would be a welcome addition since even some SOR3 opponent's could block while the main cast couldn't, Axel's stats need to be fixed, weapon specials added. They could have at least created more enemy designs with their own moves to make it feel new as it's supposed to be.

    I still give you the edge in skills for the moment. Your runs are cleaner, which is quite impressive considering he has more play-time than you on this title and so much more experience on this franchise.
    Your whole channel is impressive to be honest.

    Hey iconoclast, what do you think could make Axel better?
    There's a lot of discussion on the Steam forums going awry over whether he needs a dash, run, simple speed boost, or even damage boost.
    I think a slight and damage boost would be good, along with shortening his Grand Upper recovery frames since the entire attack itself is already so risky to use.
    But I dunno. I guess he's that character for masochists for now, where you just really have to be methodical as you were in this video when it comes to approaching clusters of enemies.
