:mjlol:How was sfv a flop?

Because it released barebones and alienated both hardcore for its simplistic gameplay and the casual who just want to mash against the AInin arcade. SF is basically a niche franchise now. I understand won’t step up and helped offset dev cost but you basically cut off a player base and allowed NRS games to hold the crown

What’s this about play testers breh?

Around late 2020, fighting game players were invited to focus test Street Fighter 6, which was scheduled to come out last year and apparently it had a tag mechanic that playtesters did not like, so they ended up scrapping that mechanic and delayed the game. This was the reason why the season of Street Fighter V was extended.

was that ever proven true? Wasn’t that the rumor from that ResetEra bum who was making up lies defending the Series X?

The only other person that has heard the exact same things is Maximilian Dood and it’s very likely one of the reasons why Ono was dropped from Capcom. Anybody else that would probably know is likely under NDA.
