Gamers voted with their wallet. Gacha is simply better, so the numbers say.

>>747655657DOA developers want the series to be played by actual fighting game fans not just be a platform for selling costumes to gooners.Its Sad that Tekken is literally the only option right now for 3D fighter fans.Hope VF managed to become its competition.
3D fighters were never good
>>747655976>goonersJust call it Male Gaze next time.
>>747655657>Venus Vacation is still region lockedI just want cute girls telling me they love me
>>747655657All the talent, fanbase and money is in the gacha. You fuckers wouldn't turn up for the fighting game even if it were the second coming of Christ (on grounds of the fact that no one turns up for fighting games anymore); and to be honest? The gacha is the perfect form for the Dead or Alive franchise. I don't want a new fighting game anymore. The people making the fighting game have no style, no speed, no bite, no edge. The people with all that are all making swimsuits for the gacha. Which we actually spend money on.
>>747656079Soul Calibur is the only 3D fighting game that has actually made proper fucking use of it's 3D space; and both Bamco and her costumers would prefer to support the watered down subset of it.3D fighting game players don't deserve shit.
>>747656197just pirate the game if it’s region locked for you lol
>>747655657All this says to me is that coomers are the most sad, loser motherfuckers on the planet that will consoom any dogshit as long as they can get sexually-aroused, and masturbate. That shows from how successful dogshit gacha "games" are like Nikke, and recently fucking Borderlands being cocksucked because there's some new character that shows some skin. Coomers genuinely aren't human-beings, and have no standards nor goals in life other than arousal. They're humans that aren't equal to me, at least. Waiting for some loser to reply about being le High-Test or some cope shit(said person doesn't do things like play sports or actually have sex btw).
>>747655976Don't fighting game fans hate doa because of the gameplay?
>>747655657There are tons of cute girls with horny costumes in DOA6 though. I don't know why people pretend this game is totally sexless or something. It's less successful because it's a shit fighting game for one and also a fighting game is inherently less suited to gooning than DOA Extreme which is all the DOA fanbase wants. They don't want a fighting game, good or bad, sexy or chaste, any DOA fighting game is going to fail no matter what.

>>747656197>Venus Vacation is still region lockedYou only have to use a vpn to start downloading it through browser once and it gets added to your library. Works for both global and JP and you can even paypiggy if you want to.
>>747656459What is blud yapping about
>>747656474Yes, they fear the Triangle System and lack of zoning projectiles
>>747656474gameplay is generally praised from what i've seen but when it comes to fighting games good gameplay doesn't mean shit it seems
>>747655657>no rollback netcode>no crossplay>no carry over date from previous version>"new" character is just another amalgamation of other characters moveswhat are some other series revivals that are blatant low effort cash grabs?
>>747656474its glorified rock paper scissors. combined with poor netcode its god awful to play online.
>>747656474I believe they hate the hold system, but the anime gooner aspects are embarrassing to them as well
>>747655976>DOA developers want the series to be played by actual fighting game fans not just be a platform for selling costumes to gooners.And yet DOA 6 has a billion costume DLCs. The last DOA was 4.
>>747656609Cope. Everything that was said was true. You losers truly don't give a shit about anything but jerking off. You'll consoom and praise even the most mediocre shit just for that. I don't know how you people don't feel any shame nor self-reflection for being like that.
Lol wtf how is this fun? The game needs to tell you how to "enjoy" it.
>>747655976>Hope VF managed to become its competition.i doubt anything is going to change on that front even if the new vf turns out to be a 10/10 game
>>747655657They should have kept the gooner side away from the fighting side of DOA
>>747657215They did. You're seeing the result.
>>747655976It sucks that they never updated Soul Calibur 6 to have decent rollback net code and that a solid game is stuck with garbage netplay.
>>747657056Every time the DOA devs talk about toning down the sex appeal and being a more legit game they back down super hard and go all in on gooner costumes. It's always so half assed and unserious, all it does and get them bad publicity for a few days.
>>747655976they say they want doa to be taken seriously, but end up making the LEAST COMPETITIVE doa ever.never take lazy devs seriously.
>>747657215Nah that's part of the soul of the series. The last time they did that they unironically lost sales (DOA 5's "I'm a fighter" campaign for example). DOA5 TLR saved the series from death and then VV breathed life back into it. To remove it completely would be killing it again.
>>747657215Wrong, they should've combined them together and put all the gooner modes into mainline DOA. That's the only possible way they might care about the fighting game part of the series. As this and every other DOA thread demonstrates, the fans don't care about the fighting gameplay
>>747657105
>>747657472I care, to me, DOA was always a better Tekken.
>>747657550Every 3D fighting game is a better Tekken, yet here we are.
>>747657550Maybe you do but there's just not enough of you fellas.
>>747657393the "imma fighter" thing was advertising in usa.in japan they got oppai mouse pads and dakis.it had day 1 bikini dlc anyways.
>>747655976>NO I DONT WANT THAT AUDIENCE I WANT THAT OTHER ONE I WANT IT I WANT IT I WANT ITWe called people who thought like this "children" back in the day
>>747655976More like K-T wants to maximize profits and think they can capitalize on SF6 having blown up in popularity in Japan lately but their thought process into making a new fighting game character is to make a second move stealing schoolgirl. Does that honestly sound like the right move to "not just be a platform for selling costumes to gooners"?
>>747657787They should stop doing that. The mixed messaging is not working. Commit to something.
>>747655657I thought it died with Last Round
>>747657787>>747657956I cringe when publishers do different marketing strategies between NA/JP. It's inconsistent and insulting. SEGA & Capcom are notorious for this shit where Americans gets cringe youtuber ecelebs as their marketing.
Remember when this series rivaled Tekken?
>>747655797promote steam charts threads
I'm gonna be honest, I think I like the gachafags better than you fightanfags; all you do is bitch and whine. Whine about the gachafags, whine about the fighting game, whine about KT, whine about rival fighting games, whine about each other. At least in the VV threads someone's always spamming their waifu who's all dolled up and barely wrapped up in a swimsuit that's all string and rhinestones.Through dick, unity indeed.
>>747658208mobileplayers have no standards they literally play fucking arpgs at sub 10fps with touchscreen controls.
>>747655976>Hope VF managed to become its competition.VF's character design choices have me shaking my head.I don't think it's going to draw in an audience by trying to be like Street Fighter 6
>>747655657So is Tekken, Tokon, 2XKO, Avatar, Invincible VS, Nen x Impact and whatever other fighting games has released recently.The genre is beyond dead.
>>747658376VF is going to flop. All new Sega games have been total flops these past 6 years. Sega is literally coasting on Total War (Sega of Europe) and Persona (Atlus acquisition).
>>747658426I've been ruminating about this, fellow uncs, and in truth, the fighting genre IS a bygone of an older era. It existed in an era when you had to sit down physically next to a friend in front of a single screen (be it a cabinet or a tv) to play. And as a result it necessitated both characters be large and readable and onscreen at all times. And in an era when all the kids are playing online, why tf I gotta play one-on-one, and why tf the viewport gotta be so suffocating? The genre itself really is just being held together by a buncha stubborn uncs and pedophile (and unc-ass pedophiles).
>>747658150No I don't actually.
>>747656609He’s trying to feel better about himself by looking down on other people.
>>747658426Tekken is still a very popular and alive game despite being dogshit. Probably not for long based on how the dev team seems to have all left the company.
>>747655657Unless your name is Street Fighter you have no chance at living past the week of launch. It's a lesson that all these lower budget fighting games like Avatar and Invincible VS need to learn.Crapcom and their shills run the scene these fighting games are made for. Aiming for this group of players is a wasted effort because they have already made their choice. It's something these retarded execs need to learn. No, bringing in players from this scene to develop and test the mechanics of your game will not keep them around either. Now neither the pro scene or the casual player will touch your game.Because fellating Capcock is what the pro scene does for a living, and asking them not to do that is akin to asking them to stop working. That is why other games cannot get away with atrocious mtx, horribly botched launches, bad online infrastructure, etc. SF is also guilty of the above but they are allowed to get away with it and continuously fuck their playerbase. Not even Tekken can do that.No matter how good or bad a competing game is you are an idiot for thinking that this genre has real room for other games. They all have uphill battles that they cannot win and for a player it's basically a choice of which game hurts the least to play. Not which is the most fun. That's why this genre is for mongs. Fighting game players are the gachafags of paid game releases.
So they're gonna keep digging the hole, huh.
So what are you hoping for and what are you expecting in DOA 7?
>>747656459>Coomers genuinely aren't human-beings, and have no standards nor goals in life>Now if you'll excuse me, I'll go play Horizon, Saros and Wolverine
