Topping Ultimate would be via gameplay, not roster. It's an annoying chore to fight ~75% of the roster and this isn't a controversial opinion. The series is at its best when it plays "like jazz," and Smash 4/Ult stripped more and more of that out with poor design philosophy. Refine the core mechanics, build the single player stadium modes around that, and you will have a delightful game regardless of rosterfaggotry.

We need to ban gacha now. Real otaku games are being suffocated by these shitty FOMO-driven GaaS slot machine simulators monopolizing otaku spending. Gacha has an objectively negative impact on the market just by its existence, as it incentivizes a "race to the bottom" as everyone else is forced to adopt similar predatory monetization models just to keep up. This is not a moralfagging thing; gacha objectively lowers the standards for real games everywhere by being so much more successful for so much less effort in providing a good product. There is zero benefit to allowing it to stay and many benefits to getting rid of it like a cheater in a board game. During the Vita era, this stuff sold like 50k just in Japan. You can't blame everything on Sony/Nintendo/Steam censoring these games for their failure; because gacha has captured the Japanese market almost completely, these games which used to be made entirely for the domestic audience now have to look west to survive, and that means going through western cultural commissars. Gacha is as much to blame for the downfall of retail otaku games as platform censorship, an uncomfortable truth too many self-proclaimed otakus and defenders of these games are not willing to admit.

That's precisely how the term is used by everyone when it comes down to it. E.g. cooking is just the mundane preparation of food, something people need to do most days to sustain their continued existence. But do it really well and cooking, too, becomes an "art." It's only natural gamers would want their favorite pastime or at least the really good games regarded as art. Everyone else gets to do it, why shouldn't they?

>people focused more on the girls rather than their history
As I said, if you're confusing secondaries that just jerk off to the girls as "fans" instead of talking about the players, then I agree with you, but I personally wouldn't call them fans.
Artists that play the game draw the girls and celebrate their irl ship launch days and players often discuss the naval engagements that the events represent, discuss future girls that could be added based on which ones participated. And, unlike games like AL and Uma which have been casualized to appeal to the broader audience, KC gameplay revolves around getting military equipment that your ships equip and use to do better in future events. The game and it's military aspect are basically inseparable.

Go make a collage about old games you don't play.

>>729108373
You wouldn't understand.

I always see people calling fighting games dead, especially when they are referring to other skill based 1v1 games like arena shooters or RTS. But here is the thing, fighting games are more alive than they have ever been. You need to remember that fighting games are also on console, and most modern fighting games have crossplay enabled. Take the steam daily peak player count and triple it, that is basically the true daily peak of available players. I'd say there are probably anywhere from 100,000 to 200,000 unique players daily when you take into account all modes. Compared to arena shooters, fighting games are incredibly thriving. We have active local scenes, competitive scenes, and online scenes. The biggest name in arena shooters only gets a peak of 400 players daily. RTS games may be a bit more popular than fighting games when it comes to player count, but our competitive and local scenes are actually alive and thriving. When you compare fighting games to other popular games, you have to remember it is a 1v1 game. A better metric to compare it to other games is to take the number of possible matches that could be happening at a time.

For example, in order to fill an ARC Raiders lobby you need 21 players. Lets take the peak and divide it by the amount of players you need to have a match.

>445,973/21 = 21237

Now lets do the same for Street Fighter 6

>37,646/2 = 18823

Note, these are only Steam numbers, the amount of playable matches at peak hours is actually much greater. Outside of the titans, the "liveliness" of SF6 is comparable to most popular multiplayer games.

Sorry for the bad grammar, I'm ESL.

>nobody plays it
What are you talking about?
Half the people I see in Battle Hub have max level Avatars with all the stat boosters. That's like 80 hours of World Tour at minimum.

And that's just your recurring player.
Most casuals might buy the game, play a bit of fighting ground, play a bit of battle hub, spend a lot of time in World Tour and then never touch the game again, and that's fine. That's no different than me buying Yakuza 94 and putting it down after I beat it.

The fact that you think because hardcore FG players aren't playing it as much as they're grinding ranked ladder against Gorilla Ryu's that NO ONE plays it only proves the other posters point that hardcore sweaties in internet forums have a distorted perception of what makes these games successful.
WT/BH/FG all feed into eachother in helping SF6 maintain and grow It's player base. Someone might come for WT or FG but stay because of the online chat hub of BH socialization. Someone might only be interested in one of the three modes.

Casting a wider net is pertinent for a game's success. The sweats don't give a fuck about your game and will only play it if the casuals play it -- see City of the Wolves.

Retard. Most of SF6's daily users are in BH.

>they cut all the RPG features in Rising
And GBVSR is a discord fighter as a result of having nothing for a casual player to sink their teeth into.
It's kind of useless talking with retards who don't understand that just because all of the sweatlords they pay attention to only touch ranked, doesn't mean that's the entire playerbase of a game.

If that were the case 85% of the SF6 playerbase wouldn't be below Master.
There's a reason why the game sold 6 million copies in two years.
