Even if they do get to add Area, that'd be the worst note to go out on, she's the only character from that old roster that I don't think anyone missed.

The Steam version's still half off for a few hours: https://store.steampowered.com/app/871200/FIGHTING_EX_LAYER/

Terry's pretty much what you'd expect and similar to his KOF14 version, they even game him a couple lvl3s.

kind of crazy that they're saying "we don't even know if we can add this character" are they really doing that badly? Besides Fire Pro World this sounds like the most dire "we are making this thing by the skin of our teeth" revival game right now

That SNK collection has a feature where you can watch somebody else play the game completely, and at any point in the video you can take over the game and just play from that point.

They made and self-published the game in a year with no money, it launched with no content and a convoluted pricing scheme, the animations are dated, the PC release came way too late for most people to care, Terry took eight months to show up, etc.

It did just well enough initially to make them think they could turn it around with the PC port, additional content updates, etc but I don't think it worked.

I wanted to like fexl as a goof around with casual friends game but awful presentation aside, just in gameplay, the gougi system is really confusing and im not sure its actually fun to have the first round be boring and the final round be a cluster gently caress of passive abilities in every match.
The level rotating gimmick from the initial april fools teaser was a way cooler bad idea than gougi.
Also the cancel windows are so small i have to use casual controls to get a dp to combo after normals cause i dont have the muscle memory of playing the old ex games i guess.

I'm kinda the opposite on gougi, for all the time you have to spend explaining them to people upfront a lot of them don't actually do as much as you might expect.

That's absolutely what happened, and continues to happen even though they got rid of that poo poo.

But that’s what gougi is. You don’t make decks with cards, you pick preassembled decks which are basically just grooves that require a lot more explanation.

Battle For the Grid is getting three new free characters in addition to the season pass content.

Udonna from Mystic Force, Black Dragon Trini from the comics, and... the blue ranger from the opening scene of the movie. Huh.

That is not a roster update that will keep people interested in the game. They need to get Zedd in there asap.

To be fair, Bulk actually has a pretty good character arc (for a Power Rangers character) over the course of the series. I would love to see him somehow entered into the game. Hell, make his special moves be throwing out Skull and Rito Revolto (Bulk was his boss once)

When I looked up a youtube video of this game to see what its deal was, it actually surprised the poo poo out of me that it was a 3v3. Even with these free guys, that has to be one of the smallest rosters I've ever seen on a team fighter.

How many did Skullgirls have at launch? 6? How many does the awful horse game have?

The power rangers all look the same, that's my beef. They're no fun to look at.

Skullgirls also gave you the option of using a team of 1, 2, or 3 characters with adjusted health/damage, although I'm not sure how popular NOT playing a team of 3 was at a competitive level
