Translation: Kenny wanted everything possible, but the budget they were given didn't allow it.

Dude for one of the...if not the best wrestler in the world, dude is as smooth brained as my cousin Willy. You get a simple budget of maybe a mil or two. Instead of going all dikk in, just use the tip:

  • A good roster
  • Arcade mode (since they were going for a No Mercy/Aki experience)
  • Forget the story mode, just do the calendar setting (2nd bulletpoint) like WCW Vs Nwo/WM 2000
  • Creative suite is what it is (bare bones)
  • Match options sure
Bottom line, this is the first video game, so of course It's going to be room for improvement, but this game is undercooked for all the wrong reasons. Less is more, and Kenny should have just kept the ideas small but efficient.

God, I get frustrated with humans all the time, especially ones in high places but don't have a single clue of business surpluses, budgeting, and time management :beli:

They should've left the No Mercy director in the attic. Where's the HCTP dir at ?:damn::damn:
I always make sure to backup all my save data, but it's the fact that it happened at all is what pissed me off. This game could've used sliders or the quick/normal/epic match options from WWE 13, because no matter the difficulty every match ends in about 6 minutes. That's the reason reviewers were saying it gets boring after a while.

Yukes should have taken more time to work on Fight Forever b/c this joint feels rushed like hell. The gameplay comes off awkward as ever when playing. Tbh, this release just comes off as lazy from Yukes half-assed entrances, half missing roster, missing titles. (I know updates are coming later on)

I would be pissed if I had to spend actual money on this. If THQ/Yukes gone catch up w/WWE 2K series, they are going to have to do better. I didn't realize it until I was listening to the Solomonster podcast the other day but they don't even have a cage match. No way Fight Forever is competing w/2K23.

It's the first release, WWE been working on video games for 30 years. Of course it wasn't going to be at the level of 2K23

Some people are saying this is better than 2k


They’re lying to themselves out of love for AEW, but they’re saying it lol

:dead:


Latest 2k with all its faults is one of the best wrestling games in a very long time. Its 82 metacritic score is warranted to be completely honest. It’s so customizable with sliders and creations that you could literally turn that shyt into a better AEW game than AEW’s game

Road the the Elite with a CAW wrestler is considerably more difficult than an AEW wrestler.

Did it with my CAW the first time now I'm doing it with Omega and this shyt is like on cheat mode with Omega compared to what it was with my CAW. Don't have to waste my time doing the workouts and stuff to get the skill points since you can't upgrade an AEW wrestler.

Aki & Yukes have been working on wrestling games for 30 years. They helped set the standard for modern games. I know you feel like you have to shoot AEW some bail, but there's no good reason why this particular game is so lacking.
Keep it real just this once, they fleeced the customers who wanted an AEW game.

Which CAW did you create?
