I don't think most casual players like vf. It's a lot more complicated than most fighters and the characters don't really have much charisma.

To me VF is more realistic fighting which is I love it. None of them have supernatural thou.

VF always had boring designs.. and you never really saw any of the character's personalities..

By the time Sega tried to..it was too late

Yeah VF is adamant about not having endings, and casual players are really into endings. Without endings players don't connect with the characters. Beating Dural and not getting an ending feels like being cheated.

In terms of being complicated, I don't think VF is that complex. It is easier to learn than say TTT2, and it is more intuitive than DOA. The hardest thing about VF is open stance and closed stance combos, and the throw breaks. VF is a very fast paced game though, and that does take some getting used to, but anyone who uses VF characters in DOA can make an easy transition, since DOA is based on VF.

Put enough bells and whistles on VF and casuals would play more. Sega just needs to market it differently.

i love my VF and still have VF5 on 360. Man, I want new VF6 for PS4/Xbox 1 :to:

Virtua fighter got boring after 4. It feels like Time crisis same redundant boss for example Wild Dog and VF Dural. The best VF is 2. I Wish sega could have continued with Fighting Vipers.

Yeah I am getting a little upset at every single game being loaded with a season pass. Getting lame.

Slightly off topic but on the subject of 3d fighters.....whens the next Virtua Fighter? :jbhmm:

All of the fighters last gen had two iterations, that people knew about.

Virtual Fighter came out in 2007 and I didn't even know about Final Showdown until you guys mentioned it here.

They had no marketing presence.

You know what, brehs? Im gonna learn Eddy this go round. I always thought his actual moves and combos looked sick but he's usually played by scrubs spamming the same shyt over again online. He won't be my main or nothing, but I will put some time in for a change

There's some good capo players online. Under the right hands, they become top tier because their moves are hard to punish online :martin:

I've already been using Christie for a few months now, I might check out Eddy.
