"And the cherry on top had to be seeing old-man Viscant win the ReveLAtions Marvel vs. Capcom 3 tournament. I love you Viscant, but come on people, this guy is a fossil."

And that Fossil went on to win EVO.

by fossil he means 30. Justin Wong is turning 30 this year

They wanted Bridget or are they upset that it's a small girl and they're shitposting like minibossbattle?

I mean if you don't like Mario games that's fine but this is a borderline trolling. New Super Mario ______ =/= Mario Galaxy =/= Super Mario 3D ______. If we move even further back into the release schedule we see even more variation.



Why? Because they hyped themselves up into thinking it might be Bridget?

People hating on the design when Guilty Gear already has characters that are like "that".

So I been playing jp version of rival schools and can't figure out the fucking menus but whatever I found this mode where you create a student and it goes into this kinda school sim/fighting thing I think? What a great idea for a single player fg mode. I really hope to see more ambitious single player stuff in the future.

Eh, eh, it's not a great design. It's not even all that original, although I agree I'd be surprised that anyone can work up any sort of emotional reaction that even gets close to outrage.

You Shoutan't do that to him. :-(

I just wanted to say that I saw this, and you're on The List. I shan't forget.

PSX was the height of creativity for single player modes. Soul Edge, Tobal 2, Bushido Blade 1, and some others.

Companies don't see the return on that kind of experimentation now. TBH BB could be really janky unless you grok'd what it was going for, that it wanted you to have fun and run through the world, make the fight you wanted to see. Otherwise you could stay in the same area and conclude the game was junk.

Mild confession: Halloween is my favorite holiday of the year, so I am pretty hype to the idea of playing a Halloween themed character in Xrd

I tried playing Rachel in BB because of this before I realized that I am actually very bad at high execution characters

Yea Battle Network and Legends aren't even actual MM games.

It's like making a RPG and calling it DMC. Sure that's cool and all but the DMC fanbase are action addicts... they want to style on fools not min max inventories.

What does the MM fanbase want? They want tight controls, fast skill based game play, solid level design and platforming in addition to having an artstyle that doesn't suck.

Sort of like Ori and the Blind Forest but with more emphasis on shooting, boss fights, acquiring power ups etc.

3D MM would be fine if they can nail the tight game play and controls but I have yet to see a 3D shooter/platforming/action game with tight game play/controls. Closest thing is Vanquish and that's still far away from what a MM game is about.

*Azure J dapped this post.*

DMC the RPG.

I'd make that just to see Dahbomb languish in despair.

No lies, you get the proper systems involved to juggle between the (now mostly fleshed out) leads of DMC [maybe something like the action ring from The Last Story] and combine that with DMC's high octane stylin' and this probably wouldn't be reviled as much as you think.

Unless you Capcom it and call it a mainline series entry because "why the fuck not, what does franchise integrity mean again?"

It's just most of the complaints are from people that are like "the 90's could do no wrong in designs" camp.

I'm looking forward to how she plays though. Elphelt didn't click, even though her tools sounded interesting. When put together, it just wasn't what I was looking for.

Been meaning to pick up a character that's exclusive to Xrd, but none have clicked yet.

You going to build your own coffin after you turn the big three zero yams

I'm 24, people say I look like I'm 18 normally. If I dress differently, I'm confused as a high schooler with a clean shave. I don't get it.

I'll start building it in a couple years, that when I have to retire from the internet. /s

You can't reason with those folks sad to say. There are some tropes in character design from Japanese media that I'm not a fan of in newer franchises/sequels myself, but I'm still open enough to know that there's an audience for it, it should exist as long as it's not blatantly wrong and you gotta search through it eventually to find the things that you can/do like.

Or you could just be all hip/yelling at clouds and regurgitate Miyazaki.gif again. :p

Are you guys ready for MvC4 as an X1 exclusive? What was a joke only months ago~

How many have you played through?
I need to play through it to know it doesn't particularly innovate? For games universally praised for doing what they always do well? Any time I've played a post-Galaxy platformer from Nintendo it hasn't exactly reeked of innovation, Epic Yarn had some nifty stuff though. This isn't really a controversial thing either, they've been clearly playing towards evoking those same experiences as that's exactly what their market wants.

I would rage so hard while I gave amazon my credit card number to buy an XB1. So much happy rage.

Edit: Not that I think the list is real, but I don't see MvC4 listed here.

And that list is fake. Respawn already said they're not at E3 this year.
"Big Xbox One and Marvel Announcement"

Respawn isn't even working on Titanfall anymore, right? Could've been handed off to another slave studio.

Do you even believe, bro?
 
The amount of salt that would be generated by an Xbone exclusive MvC4 would be astronomical. The Fgc might actually explode.

...*rubs hands together*

Respawn is working on Titanfall 2. Its not like they have the talent or money to do anything else.

why the hell would capcom be showing a new outrun game when that's sega's IP?

That's pretty vague. And Respawn is working on Titanfall 2 which they said isn't going to be at E3 this year.
I do think MvC 4 XBONE exclusive is a possibility though.

That list is mega fake

No way capcom has enough money to make more than 2 games
something something outsourcing

MvC4 outsourced to Iron Galaxy? Let's go.

Would get me to pick up an X1 for sure, and it'll probably by at a reasonable price by then too.
