>2016: Considered one of the worst Street Fighters ever, a complete failure >2026: Fondly remembered as one of the best Street Fighters everUh...huh...
>>744577682Every popular thing that you think is gay and soulless now will one day be looked back on with fondness and a longing for the good old days.
>>744577682Pretty much
you are aware the game received updates since its pitiful launch, yes?
Old good new bad. Always.
>>744578675Updates do not fix how garbage a game was originally
>>744578828Okay so in 2026 people who say SF5 is good are not referring to the original 1.0 version, so that point is irrelevant.
>>744577682As someone who got burned by the dogshit release and didn't give the game another chance until CE, the game was considered good since season 3 and I regret not trying it again sooner.
Repeat thread
>>744577682>>2026: Fondly remembered as one of the best Street Fighters everPeople always forget to add Arcade Editon fixed the game 2 year later.By 2020 this game was completely different.Also best cammy>rollerblade cammy>battle cammy
Meanwhile 6 is still a hot garbage after 4 years.
>>744578889Yeah no
>>7445794786 is fine I don't get why /v/ despises it It's literally "OLD GOOD NEW BAD" with that game
>>744577682>game is so good that nobody wants to play it
>>744581980>higher all time peak than iv So....thanks for proving how V won??!
>>744577682>2016: one of the worst Street Fighters ever, a complete failure >2026: retards in the fgc constantly going "OLD IS BETTER" is trying to gaslight people that SFV isn't a turd they all instantly left when sf6 came out
>>744581980Ban steam charts
>>744578828>Updates do not fix how garbage a game was originallyThat is literally the point of updates.
>>744581723>6 is fineten year plan
>>744582556new battlepass and avatar cosmetics coming soon
I only played sfv when I was waiting for 6 to release and it was great at that stage and I wish I spent more time with it when it had players
The drive stuff completely ruins the game. Everybody just running all over the screen with green diarrhea aura on them.
>>744577682>2026: Fondly remembered as one of the best Street Fighters everBy whom?SF6 IS worse though.
>>744582494And it won't change the fundamentals
>>744582556>>744583486It sounds like a literal genuine skill issue
it's sad that sf4 without rollback plays better online than sf5 with what can be called rollback netcode
>>744585179future tense?The updates already changed the fundamentals 8 years ago
>>744585462Rollback is a meme let's be perfectly honest. It doesn't change if your opponent has bad internet or not And if you were actually serious about fighting games you'd show up to local tourneys anyway
>>744584135>By whomLike five dudes on /v/ who are desperately trying to revise history and make their favorite game better despite the fact it's only been 10 years and everyone clearly remembers the true and calls them out in their bullshit
>>744582556This shit always cracks me up. Game hasn't changed a bit in 3 years.
>>744587505>NOOOOOO YOU JUST CANT USE THE SYSTEM MECHANIC
>>744577682Old good and new badYes, people are that dumb
>>744588008>the mechanics being shit is a good thing because uhhhh it just is okay?!
>>744588214If the system mechanic were shit, people wouldn't use them.
>>744588214if the system mechanics were shit SF6 wouldn't sell over 7 million and have thousands of daily players.Git Gud scrub.
>>744577682How many times are you going to make this thread?
>>744588329>if shit was bad thousands of flies wouldn't eat it
>>744588504>fliesHumans. Just like you.
>>744578828Actually, that's exactly what the updates did. What a retarded thing to say
>>744577682You're intentionally omitting the 5 or 6 years of updates that literally "engoodened" the game. Faggot.
>>744588008We're not saying you shouldn't use the system mechanics, we're saying the game is trash
>>744577682the game was heavily improved with AE lol
>>744577682This game still embodiment of the downfall of fighting games for me.
>>744588785Strange way to tell everyone you're a faggot zoomer with no taste, but okay
>>744582556he monke
>>744577682It's not remembered as one of the best everIt's simply remembered as being better than SF6, which is an incredibly low fucking bar.
>>744577682my friends who don't even play fighting games remember this as the shit one, because they're right, its crapcom street fighter
>>744588892How does that work when I say that I think games before V were better? Are you retarded?
You guys literally do this during every current street fighter. I thought it would be different because during sfv’s day I never seen you shit on any street fighter like that one before
6 is objectively worse than 5 in every way except netcode and graphics, it's not just "muh cycle", the new thing genuinely is bad
>>744589797There's only been real internet discourse for three street fighters4, especially SSF4, was pretty universally beloved5 was despised at the start and its reputation improved as it got slightly better with later patches and as SF4 fans moved on from the franchise6 brought out some rose-colored glasses for 5 but all of 5's problems are still present in 6. They're just overshadowed by the green slime.
>>744589797I think its because the game is quite fun, but the meta is atrocious. As much I love SFIV, seeing high level play of Elena is sickening, so it sours some of the memory. Same can be said of SFV. Its sickening thinking of Release Abigail or even S1 Nash. You only approach meta as you get better at the game, but the SFVI has compressed a bit of the gap to meta, so you collide with it much more frequently even at just intermediate levels.
>>744589797Because it literally does get worse every single fucking time. 3 was the actual peak, 4 was decent but borderline unplayable online, 5 was meh, 6 is a fucking abomination, and every game after will be even worse because they tragically figured out that making products for japanese middle schoolers is more profitable than making products for fighting game players.
>>744590134Ultra was a bad update to 4Abigail's character trailer was when I gave up on Street Fighter entirely. No one competent was left.
>>744589470You're a typical fake fan who pretends to like old fighting games. Wanna post your fightcade and prove that you actually like and play old fighters?
>>744590287It hurts, honestly, but I do like SFVI to some degree. I've probably put about 300 hours in it, (mainly with Manon and DJ) but issues it has are still pretty blaringly obvious. I think most issues people have with it would actually be erased without the entire drive system. If the game were entirely burnout mode, it would be a better fighting game in my opinion.
>>744590743>I think most issues people have with it would actually be erased without the entire drive system. If the game were entirely burnout mode, it would be a better fighting game in my opinion.I simply can't understand the logic behind making everyone's frame data suck so you can make the game revolve around this weird corruption of FADC. I get wanting your new systems to have an impact on the game but the Drive system is everything in 6.
