That's how the general public actually perceives SFV.
Everyone I have showed SFV to says "that looks just like SF4". It's the same thing as Tekken 7.
We are going to be hearing a lot of this for the whole year that's for sure.

That and "Meh, I'll buy it when they release the 5th Edition" or w/e
I'm actually a bit tired of all the negativity regarding anything new in the FGC. Wearing on me IRL with the friends I talk to.
I just like fighting games. Can't wait to try most of them. I'm never looking for a reason NOT to play something, and seems like a lot of people are.

I don't understand people who have that logic. It's like saying, "Oh wait this looks like a video game too."
Anyone who plays fighting games knows that both SF V and Tekken 7 look quite different from their predecessors but more mechanically then visually. So basically some people are dumb and don't know that fighting games have mechanics.
Most people think Fighting Games are Button Mashers, like a very long QTE sequence or something.
You basically don't understand graphics whores. Or the general public for that matter.
That's what I'm getting at.
Wouldn't call what Gief, Hugo, Makoto and Honda have to get around fireballs a hard counter. And that's just off the top of my head. Everyone in SFV so far either have fireballs, teleports or/and a fireball reflector.

I am in the same boat. FGC to me is not so much a community but enjoying watching personalities, games and both the emotional and mechanical nature of fighting games. For a game with frame traps and set play, fighting games are expressive.
except Anime games. Get that trash out of here.

Still holding out hope for my boy Twelve.
Okay.
Oh I understand them, I understand that they don't know what they're talking about. I'm fine with that because there will always be naysayers and uninitiated folks.
Most of FightingGAF know what's up.

Do we have a release date for Tanya btw ?
that actually makes a lot of sense...
I still think that leak is real and by roster I mean the list of characters that were leaked. The roster ain't gonna be that big and there is gonna be DLC galore. I just want Q in the game ;_;
It's also an exclusive, to a degree. That's the ultimate multiplier to any game's criticism over here.

Sim. I want Sim.
If Alex comes to SF5 I hope he has elements of Abel.

Also Ken probably isn't gonna be in the launch roster.

Capcom should have upped sharpness, muted the colors, then called it a day. Best graphics confirmed.
It also goes the other way and multiplies praise. See The Order and Splatoon.

Bison trailer is dope.
Art is dope.
Psycho effects are dope.
Significant changes to move sets are probably the most dope.
Bison has never looked so menacing, both in how the trailer framed him and his move set. SFV continues to impress. Next trailer should have a new stage at the very least though.

Its a joke post making fun of the people who were complaining about him not having a new outfit.
M. Bison's redesigned moveset is what I hoped for with Street Fighter V. A lot of characters that were created in SF2 have some pretty wonky looking moves, mostly from re-using frames by flipping or inverting them to make new moves. I'm glad Bison's Psycho Crusher because just making supers slightly crazier specials is also kind of boring.
What assets would he be talking about?
SF character models?
Realistic style stages?
Generic particle effects?
Or are we seeing purple?
While I doubt anything was there to recycled in the first place, I wonder if ideas were repurposed.
This is only the fourth character revealed. When did we see new stages for the other fighters?
Well I wouldn't say assets like Chindogg does but ideas make sense.

How long is Capcom going to stay on this one stage for SFV?
Tekken 7 has been released in arcades. And from the words of those who've played it already, it's basically Tekken Revolution with a bunch of tweaks that simplify the game and take away abilities that made top level players dominate. The new mechanics of Supers and Armor moves are pretty much useless and almost none of the high level match videos on the internet has players ever incorporating it. It's just there for new players.
The negativity around Tekken 7 is warranted for anyone that enjoys TTT2 level of gameplay. But I guess there lies the problem that a game with such depth & complexity can't exist in this generation of gamers so I should just be very fortunate I got to experience TTT2 in a period of my life where I enjoy playing fighting games.
We need more stages like this one:
It gave me CvS2 feels:
I want at least one chilled out stage with relaxing music. Not every stage needs to be bombastic and over the top.

To be fair, Tekken 7 does look very similar to 6 as well as 5 before it. Street Fighter V suffers from the same problem. Both teams seem adamantly against changing characters appearances for the most part. In the case of both games, despite running on new engines they look very similar to the engines that came before them which is another problem.
Both teams could have done more to really differentiate the new titles from the ones that came before them so I don't blame people for having a knee jerk reaction of thinking they look like the same game but higher resolution.

That does not explain the monogamer culture between the exclusive supporters of one game. They buy sticks for upwards of $100 and buy each new iteration while bitching about other games. Plenty blame on many sides.
Fighting games should not be $60 when one is free and has 700K people buying costume packs for over $10 every few months. Why is it $60.
Really what is really needed is more outsiders converted and they change the culture within. Problem is neither the community nor the developers know how to do it.

It's a good thing the game is still being developed then.
