Is this defensible in 2017 with the amount of fighting games that are coming out now



it's hilarious that infinite is gonna have less characters than vanilla mvc3 despite 2/3rds of the infinite cast being recycled from it

Infinite's going to replace MVC3 next year, but what's the Dragon Ball game going to replace?
My guess is Dragon Ball on Saturday next year with no BlazBlue. Sunday would be Infinite, Guilty Gear, Tekken, Melee, SFV

Unfortunately it'll probably bump KOF.

they did this for sfv soooo

And again, you don't see dudes like me beating Xian or NuckleDu because the game is SOOO EASY now.

You still need to have drat good execution, knowledge (general and matchup specific), footsies, and all kinds of poo poo. The guys who were good are still good, and the new players who are good have put in a ton of work and practice. The meta continues to grow and change.

You can't even complain about Ibuki since she isn't in top 8. Or Balrog, Urien, etc.

There's some potential there, game's gonna look ugly as gently caress but again I know you assholes are KOF14 apologists so ???

It helps that for SNK's situation, they had an extremely limited budget to work with. Capcom is a much bigger company that's repeatedly made dumb decisions that wasted potential.

That said, I actually thought Kof14 gameplay still looked good. I don't like the things they are taking out for MVCI

Benson Cunningham posted:

When they say easier to get into to, do they just mean they want new players to be able to do flashy moves? Because there's no way some chump is going to take sets off a pro unless you dumb the entire game down to literal rock paper scissors.

They mean "We want our games to sell as much as MKX/Injustice 2" instead of SF5. They don't really care about players getting better.

Nine seems cool, anime witch is a cool character design archetype that they should add to SFV

Basically this. Going from sick sprites to those models at least had the excuse that SNK is broke and trying to make an honest attempt at coming back. That and I liked poo poo like EX timer instead of wasting a bar on EX moves.

Or maybe it'll be like Brawl and people will make a modded version that ends up becoming legitimate competitively.

We're seeing signs of this happening right now. There are mods out there for UMVC3 that gives Iron Man actual combos and other neat changes

Yep SNK sacrificed their awesome sprites to a cheaper character model due to limited budget in order to keep their really awesome and solid mechanics and I can respect that because it still FEELS like a KOF game and still has an insane roster amount. Even with that weird fighter with pillow based offense.

I know they'll probably change nine in the future. but i hope if they do they dont make her weaker but make her other spells more useable so she feels less rail-roady.

There are wayyy to few magical characters in fighting games.
