No one remembers this game and it hasn't even been out for a year yet. >dlc character every 4 months for free, people still dont care>game is free for a weekend, doesnt even gain more players What happened? What mistakes did they make?
>>720674826the first one was betterthe main appeal of it was the 2d sprites and how easy it was to mod characters inthey shouldve just focused on that
>>720675124i disagree with almost all of that. modding will be fine. it wont be as easy to mod characters in but i believe in quality over quantity anyways. also the 2d sprites did look better but thats only because they hired amateurs to do the 3d models for rivals 2. the first game was better, though.
>>720674826Wow who knew all it took to kill shit games was ousting a couple industry plants
>>720675447?
>>720675530>he doesnt knowBlissful ignorance. Go back under your rock homo
>>720674826I rike it.
>>720676348i mean sure someones goingto like it, even if its really bad. im not doubting that
Ok.
>>720679141if you don't have an answer to my question you could just not reply
If I have to grind it's not free
>>720679771that's not how this works
I don't find any of the characters visually appealing
>>720679985what if theyre still fun to play as? would you consider trying it then?
>>720674826retarded balance patches, devs have no fucking clue what theyre doing as proven by whatever the fuck they did to orcanegrabs are too good / every neutral option that isnt grab is shit because holding down beats everything elseit just feels like a bad PM clone and i feel like a fucking retard for playing it
>>720674826It's so obviously trying to be Melee, but it ends up being Ultimate with wavedashes instead, and no one likes Ultimate. I ended up not liking anyone on the launch roster (Clairen isn't really Marth) and I was looking forward to Absa, but I haven't even bothered reinstalling it to find out if Absa is the magical character that will make me enjoy the game. Oddly enough, Rivals of Aether 1 looks way more fun (and way more like it matches kinda "feel like Melee") than Rivals 2 does, but I'm not going to immerse myself in the world of Discord tranny fighters - and boy lemme tell you, I sure found out that LITERALLY EVERYONE who plays tournament level Rivals is a tranny. Being a tranny isn't normal no matter which way you slice it off, but something is especially fucked up about the 90% tranny rate of the Rivals community. There needs to be a case study on how and why that happened.
>>720683697yeah it's weird how many trannies there are there. everyone seems to either be a tranny or the trannies boyfriend
>>720674826/v/ isn't the only place where people talk about games. RoA 1 wasn't given much attention here either, even after the workshop update. As long as the hardcore base remains, the game will be fine.
>>720674826It's not fun. That's all there is to it.
>>720674826The top 8 at Riptide was great. The turnout was significantly larger than Ultimate.
>>720686687no one watched it though
I'm gonna keep it 100, I love Smash but the furry art style completely turns me off of Rivals to the point I didn't even try it out in the free weekend
>>720674826>pandering to meleefags which always results in failure>20 dollars for and obvious early access game>majority of the characters have a shit gimmick>some even share the same floating orb gimmick>no new stage after a fucking year only stage skins>almost all of the update is just skins and not on the game itself>character are ugly ambiguous gender furries>no new stages>teams and ffa is dead>only people playing are sweatfags>communtiy is full of trannies>still no story modeI liked what I saw when it released and waited patiently for updates but all I got was skins
>Be Multiversus>Be Free to Play>Be from multibillion company>Be shilled>Be shilled by E-Celebs>Have hundred thousand player count at all time peak>somehow lose 95% player base>Warnerbros cuts online play>brings it back in desperate hope of revival>doesn't fucking work>Warnerbros cuts online play again>Be Rivals sequel>Fill the niche of the competitive version of smash, the casual version of fighting games>have no iconic characters, just lame furries>be 30 dollars>have a 6,000 player peak>yet have a constantly higher player base than game with super hero cartoon and athlete celebrities For the record, Rivals 2 only has 400 players right now, but that beats the abysmal Multiversus count
>>720675124fpbp, too many smash baby mechanics added that ruined the rivals formula and what made it different. special grabs and special get-ups from ledge are cool additions however. just wish the rest of the game didn't feel off compared to the first, not talking visuals, but something about the controls don't feel right at all currently and probably will never be fixed..
>>720689035anyone can compare themselves to garbage anon it's not impressive
>Game releases>people say Clairen is shit>Meta evolves>People can't stop bitching about ClairenNot that much changed
