What happened? It was gonna save the FGC!
>HEY WHAT IF WE MADE A GAME NO ONE WANTS IN AN ARTSTYLE NO ONE LIKES?
>what we made a fighting game (shit genre) based on our (shit) ip with the shittiest name ever and also included none of the 200+ characters we have?
>>738371615>Tag fighterWay to tell new players to the genre to fuck off. Well, the game is dead by default if isn't developed by Capcom, SNK or Arcsys anyway.
>>738372081>SNKWho invited my man blud? Bro thinks he's on the team
>>738372050>>what we made a fighting game (shit genre)Way to out yourself as a shitter
>>7383716151) Multiple year+ betas removing the release hype factor2) Small roster + locked characters: This is bad enough, but even worse in a tag fighter having only like 8 characters before resource unlocks3) This wouldn't be as bad if there was a decent shitter pool, but the weird mix of normalfag controls and degenerate MvC combos is at odds with itself. Near-ToD combos are what drive people away from the genre in the first place
fighting games suck
>>738372050>>738372308Fighting games are fun! Do you not have any friends to play with?
>>738372308shitter
>>738372308You suck ass at videogames
>>738372385t.brown
>>738372281>>738371615it really feels like there's an entire generation of industry talent that has only worked on bad/failed games and only knows how to implement worst practices that lead to something like this or multiverus
>>738372405I am right and thats all I care about. You are a shitter and its the only reason you dont like fighting games
>>738372050>>738372178>>738372308>>738372398>>7383723851v1 me at the best fighting game.Puyo Puyo Tetris. faggitsLet's see who's the real man here.
>>738372308trvke, imagine paying 70 shekels to play 1v1s and nothing elese, autist genre
>>738372467bro why are you wasting time arguing with me here.your lab rat session is waiting
>>738372498>Puyo Puyo Tetrislmao i would shit in your mouth in fighting games AND puyo tetris.
>>738372467>I am right and that's all I care aboutsince you don't actually play fightan and just worship and parrot anything Justin Wong says
>>738372445Riot employees are probably the least talented in the entire industry.
>>738372540Send me the lobby then.I see more words than balls.
>>738372156I'm not saying their games are good, but comp players like Xiaohai, GO1, Nemo, Diaphone can smell the Saudi prize money from miles away.
>>738371615literally nobody gives a fuck about riot shit outside of south east asia and sea's are dogshit at fighting games
>>738372156>Shits on SNK>While capcom is thereOh no, a street normie is here
>>738371615the name sucks
>Every fighting game content creator proclaims they will shill the fuck out of this to get Riot $$$ for years before 2FLOPO releases>It finally comes out>Is so shit they don't even botherlol
i think a big part of the problem is fgcfags think 'fighting game for normalfags' means sweatfighter with all the hard edges filed off when this is what it actually means
>>738372637Nice reading comprehension buddy. Try reading again slowly>Well, the game is dead by default if isn't developed by Capcom, SNK or Arcsys anyway.Dead as in playbase, which has no relation to quality.
>>738372836correlated to thatbig playerbases in fighting bases usually mean the game is crap
>>738372802Hey, give Diaphone some credit. He sinked +500 hours into it with some decent tournament results. Good thing he already jumped the boat and moved to Invincible VS.
>>738371615>tag fighterno one likes thesethere is an incredibly small incredibly loud group of people who do, no one else enjoys it.lots of people bounce off fighting games because tag fighters often get made in a popular IP, so they attract a lot of people who don't know shit, and this is one of the reasons fighting games have a bullshit reputation, because if your first introduction to a fighting game is a tag fighter ofc ur not going to like itbut they are made as IP cash cows because they are way easier to make than regular fighting games as you can reuse a lot of characters moves and even entire movesets so its way less work in design, balance, and development, you just need the art assets. then you add in how much tag fighter players like bullshit stuff you can pretty much do w/e and they will slurp it up, they don't care if there are 5 absolutely broken characters that are the only ones playable in a cast of 40, that's fine with them, they don't care if there are retarded mechanics that break the game, or other silly shitno other style of fighting game accepts this bullshitso they made a really niche game in an already niche genre that filters new players the absolute hardest (both fighting games AND tag fighters especially) and are surprised it flopped? lmaothe game was originally pitched as a rising thunder clone, so simple inputs, simple mechanics, just the core 1v1 fighter experience. If this had released with a league of legends skin it would have done WAY better.another victim of tag fighters, so many get made because they are way easier to pump out, and all of them fail.
>>738373062Invincible Vs is actually a bit fun2XKO felt like ass to play and it's no wonder nearly a third of the participants noshow'd the tourney.
Well for starters it was made by Riot's dev team which if you have been paying attention in the past 10 years you'd notice that they're mostly a money laundering scheme that isn't supposed to make money.Legends of Runeterra died in less than 2 years and they worked on that game for 5+ years supposedly.
>>738371615It was going to save the FGC from SFV but that was a decade ago. The FGC got its chance to sell out before then.>>738372445It's why they love modern game development, they get 5+ years of steady income
>>738371615Absolute marketing blunder, there're still people that don't know it's already out and it's been out for months.
>Over complicated fighting game mechanics>Autocombos on every buttonWant to please everyone? You pleased no one.
But but… the ugly nigger ogre mutt was playing it!
>>738371615Most probable timeline >Riot will support the esport scene for 2026>After that they flat out abandons the esport scene >The extra character they added for this year is gonna be the last one>"Restructuring" (aka they will fire everyone but a few maintenance people)>Maybe 2 characters a year max>FGC will completely abandon it when Tokon comes out >The Canons are never working in this town
>>738371615This is why you don't let marvel vs capcom PLAYERS touch your game. Especially for 10 fucking years.
>>738374745But enough about Skullgirls.
>DUDE LET'S RELEASE A GAME AND LOCK ALL THE FUN CHARACTERS BEHIND A GRINDY PAY SYSTEM, THEY'LL SURELY COME IN DROVES TO PLAY!
DEI and tag, dbfz sold like 10mil and you barely find lobbies.
>>738375546dbfz also didn't really have a good functioning netcode until the game was well on its way out
>>738372308yep this is fate for 99% of all fighters its a genre no one wants to actually play if your name isnt street fighter people dont want to live in reality
>>738371615I'll be honest in saying I was a 2XKO detractor but after playing invincible Vs I've realised I deeply love tag slop games and decided to give 2XKO another go and it's decent.
>>738371615wanted to play it, but fuck the anti-cheat
>>738371984>ai artstyle
>black void under Ahri because fuck youNo fuck you, now you die.
>>738372498That game is for people who love chigyu
>>738372498>Puyo Puyo TetrisPuyotet fucking sucks. Fever is better.
