Is the fighting game fad finally over?
>>726112525>SF6 reaching huge numbers>2XKO having an actual release and a tournament cycle>Tokon releasing next year>Virtua Fighter 6 is a thing>Strive getting a major update next year>DBFZ somehow getting an update and a new character>COTW (and SNK by extension) being kept alive by infinite saudi moneynot really
>>726112525No."This is just the beginning!"
not for me who finds them immensely addictingmarvel 3 was once called "crack" for a reason
>>726113889Well, it certainly did a number on low income families.
>>726112852if we are being honest. it's just SF6. i don't like SF6 at all. but you have to be insane to think any game is getting any where near the same numbers as SF6>2XKO bombed compared to riots projected numbers. some FG players aren't gonna keep it afloat. and still has to compete with DBFZ and tokon for space>strive and tekken 8 have been dropping players with every update as each patch gets rejected by most of the player base>COTW is ONLY being kept alive by saudi money,>VF is only played by old men in japan. people have zero faith in sega after all the problems with REVO. the only people that care about VF6 is tekken players that just want tekken 7 part 2.
Im just waiting for a new SoulCalibur game. MK and Tekken dropped the ball for me
>>726114381>2XKO bombed compared to riots projected numbers. some FG players aren't gonna keep it afloat. and still has to compete with DBFZ and tokon for spaceI'm not sure but it does seem to be a bit of a wet fart now compared to releaseBad balance + Degenerate tag gameplay left a bad taste in my mouth, but between updates and character releases I'm not ruling out the game yet, they could turn it around and make it more palatable>strive and tekken 8 have been dropping players with every update as each patch gets rejected by most of the player baseStrive's last patch is one of the best patches the game's ever had, tons of deserved nerfs, system mechanic changes that make sense and finally proper matchmakingThe problem is this comes too late in the game's lifespan, and there's nothing to get hyped over like new characters until next yearPlayercount's still decent for a game that old
>>726113889retard
>>726114849Same here. Tekken 8 was the biggest disappointment of my life
>>726116078Why are you booing me? I'm right.Look up "crack" in the SRK archives.
