Street Fighter 6 breaks the record of All-Time number of entrants at EVO Japan, which it already did at EVO Vegas in 2023. It sits at 7.1K entrants(EVO 2023 being 7,061), dwarfing every other game. This is 3 years after release. The Japanese absolutely LOVES this game.
Jappas love slime
>>735093712But WHY tho? And why don't they share any of this love with any other Fighting Game out?
>>735093818battle hub and world tour were incredibly successful for getting new players
>>735093564>Kekken 8
>>735093867Mortal Kombat has 11 million of single players, but it doesn't get that many tourney goers.
true fighting game fans have spoken and we hate dix and casuals for ruining our community by being popular
>>735095323Because the game is fucking trash. Story mode is the only way to actually have a 1v1 fight. Every other mode has the retarded "assists" which only make the gameplay less fun and more prone to spamming shit worse than 10 or 11
>>7350982741 is a much better game than 11 in terms of the actual combat. X is obviously still the best one though. the assists are cool mostly and the problem people have with them isn't gameplay wise but the fact that so many characters that are cool are completely sidelined as kameos which pissed a lot of people off (which i agree with) i think kameos was a bad idea and blueballed people, but in practice its not too bad even if i dislike it conceptually
>>735093564>Granblue that high
>>735098274>Because the game is fucking trashAnd SF6 is what, exactly?
uni2 bros...
>>735098641sf6 is good you dumb faggot, stop seething about it constantly because you can't get out of bronze
>>735093867Pretty much this. A decent in game social hub and being able to make your own donut steels is the main reason SF6 stood out from the other fighting games
>>735098545great to see
>>735093564Mysteriously western EVO popularity has gone down. Nobody knows why.
>>735098753Capkuck detected. I just know you were on the verge of suicide when Street Fighter wasn't the most loved/played game last gen, weren't you.
>>735099274extremely indian post. i can smell the curry wafting off it
>>735098641Better than Mortal Kombat at least
>>735098996vegas is an unaffordable shithole to travel to these days
This fucking retard said SF6 is good
>the jeet won't even quote me any moreintimidated as fuck kek
>>735093818It got picked up by some super popular streamers over there and is now basically Japan's Call of Duty
>>735098641a game still getting marketing, support and content lmao
>>735093564Japs are going to ensure throw loops never get removed by unconditionally supporting the game to this degree, it's almost as bad as Pokémon fans. Game has an awful meta and Capcom releases costumes and characters at a snail's pace, which could have been excused at launch but is inexcusable now that the game is such a massive success, and Japs just eat it upI hate them so
Good single player content and marketing without being too weeby like BBCF. I don't care for the game myself, but JP clearly likes it which is a good thing for the industry. I would play it over MK. I only play Fantasy Strike these days.
