Hot take, but I will argue that this one is even better than Soul Calibur 2.
Sure it doesn't have some issues, it's not the most balanced roster ever, and it can be really janky in some of the modes and bosses. It also feature a bit amount of bugs and unpolished things.
But man this is a game with so much content and replayability, sometimes you forget that it's a fighting game.
The presentation is nicer compared to other titles, and the old and new characters, alongside the quirkyness of the different alternative endings makes for really enduring stories and arcade modes (man I am surprised more fighitng games doesn't go for alternate arcade endings, it's such a good idea).
Even the character creation is great while not being at the same level of later SC titles, and the way you can bring your dumb OCs into an interesting Adventure Mode is really fun.
One of the best in the series in my opinion. Definitely a must-play if you are a fan of 3D fightings games.
