You're a terrible shill and you know it.
I think people have been saying it's rather solid?

well yeah, because i'm not getting anything from it
I'd be willing to lend you $5 a month (plus interest) if you shill for me.

If you like anything that someone else doesn't like, you're a shill.

I wouldn't be able to praise DmC without economic compensation, tbh.
sorry if i called u a shill in the pst, Dah
Yeah, but then they had to play IJ2 so ultimately the joke was on them.
Nah. It was better than DMC2 though.

I liked the visual design for Dante in DMC2. That's about it as far as that game goes.

I played a good amount of DMC2 and actually didn't have an issue with it.
It wasn't anywhere as fun as DMC1/DMC3, though.

I'm surprised too, since BB is the 3rd most popular arcade game behind Gundam and Tekken.
Though is famitsu more console or arcade based? Is the arcadia magazine still being made?
they managed to deflate all of the hype from that tournament thanks to all that musical interlude nonsense

Sunday's schedule probably going to be delayed because of this.

What? MKX was on esl before SFV
they were both on today... it's a good thing to run two games.

Man after IJ2 I think capcom will have a really tough time selling their game to customers. Aside from their ever shrinking player base (partly due to their fault) It will be tough for them to sell FGs considering the amount of effort they put in them compared to NRS.

Sounds more like wishful thinking from you.
I mean...SF5 sold an additional 100,000 copies between Jan-Mar, a year after release.
Combo Breaker has more entrants than last year.
According to Steamspy, playerbase is consistent.
Doesn't sound like it's shrinking very much to me.
Capcom projected to sell 2 million copies. They are still at 1.5 million. Seriously, how much are you being paid right now? It's okay, you can tell us.

Wanna compare injustice 2 numbers in couple of days? What will your defense be next when the king of fighting games can't barely sell 2 mil copies when IJ2 will probably sell close to 5 mil.

A. They are at 1.6 million now. They sold another 100,000 between Jan and Mar. That's why you should have actually READ my post, not just my name. Believe it or not, you might learn something.
B. The post I was responding to said the playerbase is shrinking. That has nothing to do with projected sales from launch. Playerbase is not shrinking. It's actually continuing to grow. Hence the additional sales and consistent playerbase.
Why would I do that?
Injustice can sell 10 million, and that wouldn't prove that SF5 playerbase is shrinking.
combo breaker was promoted to a premier event this year
i think every other major declined
What I understand is that it physically hurts you to criticize Capcom.
Yeah. Combo Breaker has a cap on SFV, and this year, I don't think they do, but I haven't looked into it. It also helps that Combo Breaker has the reputation of being the best tournament to attend that is not EVO in the U.S. right now [EVO is just it's own thing], passing even CEO at the moment.

what world you live in? playerbase not shrinking? every tournament so far had less entry than last year, every twitch stream have less viewers than last year. Compared to ultra numbers SFV numbers are pathetic financially. Good thing you are not in charge of a business it would go bankrupt super fast lol.
