What went wrong?
you did not buy it
>>729149518Saudi Arabia, unironically
Seriously though its one of the best modern fighting gameWish they added a better single player mode and did not wasted 2 character slot for irl celebrity
>>729149518>No good single player mode>Saudi>The worst guest characters imaginable>Unpopular IP in general
>>729149518Hotaru not being topless.
>>729149518nothing, money laundry is still going and the game is still getting more updates than sf6, mk1 and tekken 8
>>729149518normies only want to play no complexity fighters like strive or sf6. fighterz, toukon and the league games only survive due to their IP
>>729149518Nothing really. SNK never had any pull in the West, and turd worlders are too poor to buy new games.
>>729149914>>729150991Who the absolute fuck cares about single player on a multiplayer focused game?
>>729151518PS2 millennials
>>729149518TSUUUUUUUU
>>729151518multiplayer is for the sweats.good single player content is how you make a lot of money for your game, bring in casual fans who will support the game enough to allow updates to keep the sweats entertained for longer. also creates a fanbase to watch the sweats in tournaments.
>>729151518I doSingle player mode are a fun way to teach new player the mechanics of game without gazillion tutorial and promptsBloodlyroar 2 was my first fighting game and i picked that game because of its story mode
>>729151518were you around for the beginning of SF5? what you're saying was the exact mentality for that game's release state
>>729149518>Looks like shit>Absolutely horrendous dog shit roster>Dog shit character designsReviving Fatal Fury was beyond retarded when KoF already has all the good FF characters.
>>729149518Firstly, it's an actual fighting game instead of slop for retards.Secondly they focused on normie advertisements instead of paying off stre*mers like Sajam.
>>729151518Quite literally fucking nobody, but singleplayerfags are so extremely obscenely whiney that controlling what they say about your game becomes important despite them being a near irrelevant market for actually buying the game.This is common across all niche genres, look at RTS for an even more clear and absurd example. Every RTS thread will be full of complete retards claiming that RTS died because the genre focused on multiplayer despite essentially every RTS in the past two decades having a huge singleplayer focus.
>>729151917Look up SF6's single player mode's achievement completion rates. Turns out nobody gave a fuck about that game's single player mode either.
>>729152196https://psnprofiles.com/trophies/22414-street-fighter-6Looks pretty good to me. It's like 53% completion for side jobs in world tour
>>729149518snk dev stupidity and lack of real passion/motivation, treating it as a wagecuck job like working at walmart
>>729149518They thought this would be their big hit, but they couldn't make it a truly good game, and left KOF XV with a bad match system and characters they didn't add just to focus on their piggy bank.
>>729149518At least it got me into Salvatore.
>>729154264Wtf
>>729151518 Imagine thinking fighting games shouldn't cater to anyone outside of the 500 ranked mode grinders. Single player isn’t just there to coddle noobs-it's how you onboard new players and, surprise, keep the genre alive. Arcade modes, story, missions-those made people fall in love with these games in the first place. Now everything is some Garbo netcode sweatfest with no soul.
