I think Siegfried has the most elegant fighting style of all character in SC. A well played Siegfried is fantastic to watch, like he's waltzing with his sword. Every move ends with a stance, and from there he swings the next, all attacks in a fluid succession. These videos didn't show much, but those who know his stances will know what I mean.
In English, his voice from Soul Edge/Soul Blade is the voice of Paul Phoenix from Tekken, in Soul Calibur 3, it’s the voice of Winston from Overwatch and in 4 and 5 it’s the voice of Sonic the Hedgehog.
So, I WASN'T hearing things! I thought "Sonic, is that you?!" Sonic & The Black Knight must've been him practicing his skills...Sir Sonic, Knight of the Wind.
@@RimeyCH Not in 3, 4, and 5. Nightmare in 3, and 4 is a suit of armor that was possessed by the spirit of Soul Edge after Siegfried locked the Soul Calibur and the Soul Edge in a Soul Embrace, nullifying their power. In 5 the Nightmare we see is actually Graf Dumas, who is probably Raphael. Siegfried and Nightmare have only really been the same person in 3 out of the 7 games, SC1, SC2, and SC6, and they've been separated from SE/SB, SC3, SC4, and SC5
@@RimeyCH technically Nightmare is Inferno controlled Siegfried and when Zasamel made a armor that Inferno was able to control he became independent. In SC5 that's a different different Inferno aka Nightmare because the original died by Siegfried's hands in 4. And thus a remain peice of soul edge dwells in Raphael body and became a new and political Nightmare that focus on starting wars to feed his hunger for Souls.
In SoulCal 4 he really came into his own, in Soulcal 5 he was refined to be more combo-centric and have more options. Soul Caliber 6 incarnation is looking the best so far, what with a soul wave counter and fast stance pokes this game is what I've been waiting to enter into the Evo Championships with. Time for me to finally break out into the spotlight, wish me luck fellow gamers, I'll be at the 2019 Evo.
Godking Alexander That sounds spectacular! Good luck if you actually compete playing SC6, may you go far, I might even see you and/or your gameplay on livestreams and TV. Until or between those times, I would love to play some online matches with you when the game is released.
If you’re noticing that Siegfried sounds like Link in Soul Calibur 1, he has had the same voice in Japanese for the entire series, he just sounded less like Link.
Soul Caliber VI has impressed the hell out of me. The art direction hasn't been so on point since SC2 imo. This is definitely a return to form for the series. Love the little detail of the right side of Siegfried's armor starting to tint blue with corruption along with his bandaged hand.
@@CGrey_6048 Are you serious? III was the best in the series! It had a great, interractive story mode, an impressive Fighting/Strategy/ RPG secondary type of story mode, remarkable character creation, a bunch of exciting game modes ( tournament mode, challenge missions, e.t.c ) and TONS of unlockable content!
Weird how SC1 Siegfried sounded like Link from SC2 due to the voice actors being the same, yet Siegfried was a costume for Nightmare in SC2 and it's a shame it wasn't included in the vid. (But that's just me, other than that. Seeing the many different forms of Siegfried over the years is amazing)
You're missing the 3rd costume for Nightmare from II. He is still referred to as "Nightmare" there, but he's definitely Siegfried in that form (as a cameo).
Yup,that is true,I am still disappointed at that. It is baffling that in the Evolution of Nightmare video,Early Nightmare was a skin for Siegfried in Soul Blade,but in this video,Siegfried being a 3rd skin for Nightmare in SC2 not counting disappoints me.
Siegfried is my main, I use a lot of combo moves, I grapple very little with him, funny enough, the name Siegfried means Peaceful Victory, I know in the character archive his character birth place has a German sounding name, but it's actually close to Sweden because of Hilde's birth place, though artwork of Siegfried shows him fighting a dragon, so they could have based him from the German myth of Siegfried the Dragon Slayer.
The only reason why Siegfried is not in Soulcalibur 2 it's because of the bad ending in Soul Edge. But it does show him with Nightmare's P2 costume. Good ending: He destroys the sword. Bad ending: He becomes Nightmare.
Evolution of Nightmare video: Has gameplay of Soul Edge,with Early Nightmare only being a separate skin for Siegfried. Evolution of Siegfried video: Doesn't have gameplay of Soul Calibur II as a third skin for Nightmare. 😑
Nice video, Siegfried is one of my favorite Soul Edge/Soul Calibur series. Also, is it just me, or does Siegfried seems slightly slower in 5 compared to most of the other games?
wait am i trippin...I thought his ending in soul blade was he tried to pick up the sword and it clamped down on his hand. Or maybe technically it was different from soul edge/soul blade?
What’s your favorite version of Siegfried? My list would go something like: SoulCalibur VI SoulCalibur Soul Edge SoulCalibur III’s opening SoulCalibur IV (and Broken Destiny) SoulCalibur V SoulCalibur III in game (and Legends)
Because it is, the Japanese voice actor is the same guy who voice link in SC2 and Ocarina of Time, he voice Siegfried since his debut(well sc not Soul Blade)
I disagree. They may seem similar at first, to those whose only technique is hitting A+A+A+A+A... as fast as they can. But learn some of his moves and you'll realize that his defining stlye is stances, something Nightmare doesn't have.
The Sieg in SC6 is the most balanced on my opinion he has almost all the move he need much better than sc5 only missing 22B 66B from Sc4 But its Still hard to win against fast character like Groh and Sophitia And the most difficult versus is against Ivy she can take him on distance and have advantage in range move. A good Ivy is almost impossible to defeat its like 5-1 barely
Siegfried’s face looked the worst in V, they gave him facial hair that looked like a teenager trying to grow some for the first time. It always bothered me
Now that you mention it, it does look a bit like Morne too. Don't think Siegfried is quite the fighting style for Morne though. And yes, indeed, PRAISE THE SOUP! I mean sun
Chris Wolf that’s how it was in the first Soulcalibur, which Soul Calibur VI is a retelling of. Looking at the character story list for SC6, it looks like he’ll become Nightmare, get defeated by Kilik and Xianghua, revert back to Siegfried for a bit, and then turn back into Nightmare like he did in SC2.
Look at Siegfried armor it looks like Nightmare so maybe Siegfried will turn into Nightmare in campaign or something idk btw in Soul Calibur 3 and further there was Siegfried and Nightmare sooo only in SC2 there was Siegfried as Nightmare or Siegmare
Shea McGladdery it’s probably just because it’s very archaic. I ply it for the first time earlier this year, and I personally loved it. It’s old, and I think that’s why people can’t get into it as much as the rest, but it’s very fun.
Soul Edge/Blade is still my favourite of them all. Sure it might look old right now, but back then it had amazing graphics and the Edge Master mode was simply brilliant. Plus the fact all characters had two endings was great depending on if you hit the "right" key during the cutscene. I hoped 6 would be a remake on Soul Blade instead of Soul Calibur, but ah well... maybe one day....
Whoever is playing at Siegfried you are absolutely horrible and the only reason why Siegfried & Soul Calibur sounds like Link in Soul Calibur 2 is because they were played by the same voice actor

He looked so badass when he wielded Soul calibur
and he is fighting inferno
Siegfried was my favorite character in Soul Caliber is because he reminds me of Guts from Berserk.
The blonde guts
Put your grasses on
Apparently the inspiration for him was Guts, down to the part of them both being mercenaries, Siegfried being the leader of his group
He looks and sounds the best in Soul Calibur 3 IMO
SC3 was my all time favorite one overall.

No I agree, he’s a handsome dude
He's one of the few characters that grew up with us.
Siegfried sounds slightly like Simba in SC Legends...

Still voiced by link even to this day

Siegfried.
Heiler Der Welten Thank you, cheerfully corrected. Forgive my prior errors.
SC5 was a slower game in general compared to the others, I'm pretty sure the return to the speed of games like SC2 was a big point they made about 6.

When Nightmare coming to FGO as Avenger or Rider XD
Dad to day but soul Calibur 4 looks better then 6....
@Future Gameplay. I just have seen your video en of 3 years ago. Evolution of Siegfried. The fun thing is. I have all of the games.😁
Did no one point out that he skipped a game?...
Siegfried’s face looked the worst in V, they gave him facial hair that looked like a teenager trying to grow some for the first time. It always bothered me
Yeah... I think the character designers forgot to age his face to suit that epic stubble.
His armor in SC6 is the worst yet. He looks like a metal barrel in it. In the games before his armor actually had a discernible, flattering shape.
I actually really like that armor. Only thing i don't like about it is the waistguard.
