when did every game become fortnite? did it start with noctis in tekken 7?
>>737402202its more likely negan than noctis in tekken at least, but its actually shit like Jason in MKX
>fortnite created crossoversretard
>>737403126i think you missed the point, it popularized them to the extent that every game is doing crossovers now
>>737402202Arguably Link in SC2 or Yoda/Vader in SC4
You mean smash bros, retard zoomer?
>>737402202This is the only fighting game character crossover to make me not buy a game. Celebrity worship and soccer is fucking gay >>737403290Also Kratos was also in MK9 and Cloud in Ehrgeiz
kids these days don't know shit about videogames
>>737403381can no one here read, yes smash did have crossovers back in brawl but the mass adoption of crossoverslop didn't happen until after fortnite
>>737403452You're fucking underage and retarded, Japan does this shit like its just monday to them since forever, see this >>737403437 and pic related and probably can post a gorillion more
>>737403525I MEANT FUCKING GUEST CHARACTERS IN OTHER SERIES ARE YOU FUCKING STUPID OF COURSE GAMES LIKE MVC EXIST GOD DAMN KILL YOURSELF
>>737403583your post made it sound like you constantly seethe at crossovers in general tho
Nier Automata crossing over with like 15 different games probably started it
>>737403290I think it was the latter. Links appearance in Soul Calibur, while popular, was treated less as a crossover than as a "Nintendo Feature" in the same way Bowser appeared in the SNES version of SimCity. And it didn't lead to any wider adoption of crossover appearances in the fighting game community. Vader and Yoda in 4 though? People went crazy. They made so much fucking money from people buying that dlc, the ad campaign arguably focused more on them than on the actual Soul Calibur characters. And Vader and Yoda not being from the console maker or even video game media at all (even if the crossover was technically meant to hype up the Force Unleashed) made it seem like something completely new. And unlike Link they spurred an immediate deluge of copycats as suddenly every fighting game franchise now had to have a cameo character.
>first game underage faggot can think about guest characters is fornite of all gamesUnderage Faggot OP confirmed
Smashbabies aren't ready for the truth but the reality is that smash ruined videogames>b-but crossovers were a thing beforeNo fanbase has proved better than smashfags that crossovers create discussion (rosterfagging) which in turn generates interest.
You know you must be 18+ to post here kiddo>>737403784Only one person has posted about smash? Are you really this stupid? Or underage like OP?
What exactly is wrong with crossovers again?
>>737403827>didn't read my postI know kids are more illiterate these days, but you didn't need to prove it.
>>737403850OP think kindergartenite popularize them, lmao
There's literally nothing wrong with crossover characters in fighting games if the combination is cool.Also I guarantee that the character would bring in more actual players that the ones people constantly cry for. Remember how everybody kept asking for Lei in Tekken 7, and then when Bamco put him in the game almost nobody used him?
>>737403913>get called an underage faggot kid>n-no u!Nice elementary school tier comeback lmao
>>737402202Remember Soulcalibur 2? Heihachi on PS2. Link on Gamecube. Spawn on Xbox.
>>737403850I think the issue at times is with the quantity of the crossovers. Having one in a Season Pass for a fighting game is cool imo, but you have some other genres (and a couple fighting games) that go way overboard with it and you end up with shit like that Call of Duty game where there's zero aesthetic cohesion anymore because they just haphazardly throw in whatever IP owner is willing to put their characters in the game regardless of how fitting it would be.
>>737403850It's just a gag that only has punch for the week it gets announced and we'll look back at it 20 years after and briefly think "oh yeah, that happened" because they'll never return and nobody cares. Nowadays it's just stupid because you'll be watching a game update for several years and expect a popular character who hasn't been playable for 2 decades and they'll put in Frieren instead.
>>737402202Snk Cross overs been a thing since CvS and SvC.
>>737404809The target audience are still children
>>737402202Bait thread
>>737403525I need more PXZ kino...
>>737403850The retard has Fortnite derangement. So he hates crossovers now
>>737404918It does have a story. Even crossover characters have had big influence in it too
>>737402202Ronaldo is based. Though I don't expect people who worships bunch of Africans tossing around an eggball to understand.
>>737403401Kratos was also in the psp soul calibur.
>>737405140Their franchises don't appeal to adults that didn't grow up playing them.
>>737403850it's a symptom of a culture-less society
>>737402202>when did every game become fortnite?when fortnite went profitable out of left field
>>737404918it has a story, it's just retarded and abandons plotlines frequently because it's told at a glacial pace and the directors and writers keep changing before it can go anywhere.it has trailers similar to smash, quests and NPCs with dialogue, "story moments" where brief cutscenes play out during matches, and live events where larger cutscenes are shown.
what happened here lol
>>737403126no no, OP clearly stated that Tekken 7 invented Fortnite!
>>737407349thirdies are so bad at reading lmao
>>737408234there's no coming back from this OP, not even pretending to be white. fucking "did it start with T7", jesus... just log off bro.
>>737408319i was asking when the completely mismatched guest characters started appearing in games, sorry that you lack any sort of reading comprehension lil man
>>737402202Marvel Super Heroes vs. Street Fighter had a character based on a real life Japanese comedian in the Japanese version of the game. That was back in 1997.
>>737403850>a vidya game character crossing over into another vidya gamebig difference between a faggy soccer homo
>>737402202It started with Fortnite, dumbass
>>737408650see this is the shit i wanted, but he was a hidden joke character who never came to america and you didn't have to pay for. so its a little different, but this is 100% what i was thinking of
>>737402202street fighter 2 has not mike tyson not bruce leeyou just a faggot afraid to talk to real women
>>737403850its mindbreaks pure loyalist
The real answer is the Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2
>>737402202eh?
The real answer was SvC Chaos
>when did every game become fortnite?
>>737403945>if the combination is coolNice EULA, vaggot.
>>737403850>>737404276Definitely this. Crossover games are fucking awesome most of the time.The check-casher-of-the-month crossover "banners" and "events" that've wormed their way out of gacha into proper video games are not.
