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 = 21237Now lets do the same for Street Fighter 6>37,646/2 = 18823Note, 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.
>>729113557DIMPs was far better than capcom ever was. capcom went pure in-house to save costs. that screwed up, so they put a small team on sf6 and outsourced the rest of it to jeets. now we're stuck with another 5 years of SF6 with no real gameplay update in sight
>>729113409>fighting game devs would be forced to innovate which would benefit everybody.Can't. They'll get branded as arena fighters or smash fighterslop or non esports fighters. The FGC are scared when a fighter goes beyond traditional 1v1 2.5D side view fighter.
>>729089335street fighter gods, do you know why the FUCK makoto isnt in the game yet? isnt she #1 in all "what character do you want in" polls for like years and years straight?
>>729113557i always wonder if sf4 and mvc3 got released today if people would defend their gameplay
>>729114057Everything she can do except start combos off of a command throw is already done by the system mechanics and I think you can imagine how fucked up getting full combo'd off of Karakusa would be in Dix.
Twilight Princess has been 100% decompiled...thank you so much to all members of the Zelda community for making this a reality...soon we will have a native Twilight Princess PC port...

What are yours?Feel free to rant/ r8/ h8/ masturb8>KORG DS-10I'm currently working on a video game music medley for a time-lapse art video. It will have an "underwater" theme, so I'm making covers / arrangements of "aquatic" music from games like Ecco: The Tides of Time, Donkey Kong Land, Mushihimesama, Endless Ocean, and probably others. It's coming along pretty well so far, already got the Ecco segment done; DK Land's "Kremlantis" theme is up next. In the end, it will have all sorts of oceanic sound effects added in, such as waves, whale songs, dolphin clicks, etc.>all them shmupsI've had CosmoDreamer, RefleX, RefRain, and Cardinal Sins since forever (got them during a Steam sale, years ago) but haven't gotten around to playing them until recently. As for Ginga Force, I'm glad I only paid $2 for it (on PS4) because the 2nd-to-last stage is irredeemable trash. Yes I'm being filtered.Template: topsters.org

Deadass the only way I can see them ever topping ultimate is just by doing it again but adding non-vidya characters with close ties to gaming like Spider-Man, because that's literally the only line they haven't crossed yet
>>729112932Niggers suck.
>>729113497not even competitive, if you run into anyone online who's using a item ruleset it's just comically cancerous. whoever gets the first item usually just snowballs into 0 to death'ing their opponent. there are even people who pick the fastest or floatiest characters to just camp for items.
>>729113497>competitivepandering to competitive faggots made Smash as a whole worse, everything got way too standardized
>>729113986>pandering to competitive faggots made Smash as a whole worse, everything got way too standardizedsmash doesn't pander to tourneyfags at allthe closest thing they got to pandering was the ability to turn stage hazards off in ultimate
>>729114272it does with the reworked physics and the final smash meter that was supposed to be a standard for tournaments (they did use it in official tournaments but nobody else bothers)
Thoughts on this port?
Vita HD version shits all over it. 3DS has lower resolution the original 2004 PSP.

He was better in early access when it was clear he was desperate to keep his powers and the infamy it brought him, and not go back to being a normal ass dude. He would have been the most selfish person really
>>729103979Of course there is. In my country people there's enmity towards our neighbour countries, the town next over, and the people living on the other side of the street.It's human nature.
Is this really what gamers want nowadays?
AI slop? No
>>729114047>So many games like DK Banaza where you play as an adult male with a vulnerable young female sidekick

>>729112757No I grew up with old games so my standards are relatively high and most modern games are shit (modern game being 10/10 is literally impossible rn).

If "AAA" vs "indie" is like the difference between commercial and organic food, then having "non-AI" labels on games is like having "non-GMO" labels on food.
