Imagine the amount of conceit needed to post this. This is just going to lead to game studios being more hesitant to consider FGC hires. You just made the community look less reliable to the people who actually write the checks. Hope that “PhD” was worth the damage.
Studios taking beloved IPs and *almost* making good games out of them but instead trashing the project or rushing something incomplete is something we aren't supposed to care about?

Today marks 25 years of Devil May Cry! 🎉Thank you to all the devil hunters out there for slaying in SSStylish fashion alongside Dante and crew! Let's ROCK! 🔥
"this is just toxic positivity"
Anyone who knows me knows that I 100% am not about that. I'm just a guy who wasn't born yesterday and can actually recall when things were much worse, to understand how much better things have actually gotten.
welcome to fighting games in 2026, we got:
-basically arcade perfect emulation via fpga emulation
-rollback netcode as the standard
-fightcade 2
-tournament support from developers
-more dedication to hardware and set ups than ever before
Stop blackpilling and focusing on the new game cycle, no one is forcing you to play these shitty new games. There's some some old games that are getting more support now than when they were released over 20 years ago.
Now that barber shops have found out about AI, you're not going to see old sun damaged photos of haircuts anymore, you're just going to see AI tapers and fades instead
@Dshiznetzz Compared to the jump from GGPO to FC1 to FC2, FC2 actually finally updated the version of nfba. It's about the grand scale of things and how much has changed over time.

welcome to fighting games in 2026, we got:
-a game shut down after <1 year of going live
-a game ppl forgot about almost immediately after release
-a good game that was rushed with missing features and unfinished characters
-a game with a botched PC port and bad matchmaking
Yeah he gets it.
Maximilian understands what makes a fighting game appealing.
Yes you can still cater to the FGC with patches but do not make the whole personality of the game for the FGC
