Ever since I was a kid I always thought SoulCalibur II was a cool game. Emphasis on cool. Yeah, if you had a few friends or relatives it would be fun to play for awhile, but I almost always played it and felt a sort of fatigue as I continued to play, as if there was something about the game that kept me from getting invested in it the way I wanted to. After seeing that the original SoulCalibur was the number 1 rated game via Metacritic and reading some comparisons that players of the original made with the sequel, I've come to the conclusion that not only is SoulCalibur I a mechanically better game, but it's probably more fun too. However, whenever I look up "soulcalibur tournament" on YouTube I almost always get results for SoulCalibur V and a couple for the second game here and there. Never do I get a result for the original SoulCalibur. As far as I can tell, in spite of less than glowing reviews (which were more focused on content than gameplay), I feel I would also consider SoulCalibur V a wholly "fun" game based upon what I've seen and how people have reacted to the gameplay. So my question is this...
(Read here for the tl;dr people)
With graphics and content aside entirely, which game is
a) more fun to play, as a whole
b) mechanically superior (with both fluidity and depth considered, and in regards to both standard gameplay and tournament-style gameplay)
SoulCalibur I or SoulCalibur V?
Please give reasoning, it would be greatly appreciated.
(Also, can anyone explain why I can't find any SC I tournaments?)
