Genuinely curious, why does it not look like SH? Is it because of the japanese setting? Because other than that it looks heavily focused on proper psychological chaos. I think we’ve got to give developers some form of freedom if we want to see this series advance!
yeah, but at the same time no one usually plays the older version of games such as SF4 and GGXXAC+RR! Rare exception is Street Fighter Alpha 2, simply because it was a different world and americans were too used to that one version.
So at that point might as well have one very long game that is frozen at the end of its 5-8 years old life cycle.
I think you had to pay for the Rev2 upgrade? I understand what you mean though, they should probably include it in the new season pass. I really hope they release the new ranked mode way before the next year.
I agree with this. RDR2 pushed so much on realism, it actually made me realize how I don’t want to be as slow as a person in the real world in videogame. Realism in general really doesn’t cut it for me in videogame form.
I’ll take CP2077 over this game in any context.
Did developers really shift away from it though? I feel like season passes and updates brought the concept closer, in fact, by prolonging a game’s life without having to buy the same game three or four times (which is what happened back with Street Fighter 4).
Strive 2.0 probably means they’ll expand the game’s life like they did with REV, by making a REV2 update instead of shifting to a new game altogheter. The new update will probably cost around 30/35 euros. I’m good with this, I think GG:ST has so much life left in it. Incredible how it has been around 5 years already.
It’s acted out on purpose: if I recall correctly he missed a relatively easy win that could’ve kept him in the fight a bit longer because of an unpunished mistake of GO1. After a minute of desperation, he quickly shifts into proper manner and shakes hands!
This. The great thing about fighting games is that today is one of the best times to join: there’s lots of online activity, long past the days in which you needed a local tournament to actually play. You will find a passionate player about literally any fighting game on earth, no matter if it’s an indie title (I suggest Punch Planet!) or an old KOF classic. Hell, good rollback implementation even makes playing on (decent) wi-fi actually acceptable.
True! I get what you mean. To be fair, Lucy is also at least a “curious” choice; we can’t really say the same about SNK & Capcom basically exchanging their most famous fighters in a desperate hope of selling more to each other’s playerbase.
I’m a little sad about Under Night because I can’t fully get into the vibe of that game… which is weird, since I love the art direction of melty blood. Just something about those big chunky pixels animated at 60fps.
Arcsystem clearly knows how to make a crossover character that fits into the game’s direction while still tying heavily to its origins.
All of the other crossovers I’ve seen from the popular titles have felt so lifeless in comparison.
I admit I do not prefer the remake over the original, but that’s mostly because I would rather see new original things than to milk pre-existing material which didn’t age that badly.
