Smaller rosters fell out of favor but I prefer a 10 man roster over a huge one where the majority of the cast is useless. Plus a new character dropped consistently every month for half a year until the next season started up.
Why Killer Instinct will never get it's due in the FGC?
- Thread starter The Intergalactic Koala
- Start date

nikka i thought you replied to yourself
They just didn't have the community to hold it up. And even back when it was popping, it was just the 'other' behind MK and SF - then after that there was a flood of fighting games of all kinds. That community disintegrated and branched into fans of other franchises. That was just waaaay too much time on the bench. Like if Clayfighters came back it'd probably suffer the same fate.
Now you know damn well you not at liberty to speak on this topic considering ain't one fighting game you technically skilled at.

KI on snes was my fav fighting game after MK. KI on 64 was wack
I ain't makin' no more posts neither, so when I shoot you in the face I don't wanna hear that I'm wrong neither :DAIGOYANKEE:

It's a subpar fighting game no matter how you slice it. Presentation was poor, the character models are bulky and ugly and the gameplay cant keep up to the technical games we have now. It is what it is 
I always found that KI's system and controls were too confusing and complicated. Plus the metagame was broken last time I saw, the DLC characters like Arbiter were unbeatable.

There was a big gap between the previous one and the current one
KI Gold came out on N64 back in 96, this new joint just came out in 2013, that's 17 fukkin years,
so inconsistency
which means a huge chunk of gamers who don't link KI to nostalgic moments in their life
you can't just skip 3-4 generations of tech and 5 generations of gamers and get top rank in the conversation
not to mention, the longer you go without making a new version of your IP, whether movies music games whatever, you get caught between throwing your hat in the ring as far as appealing to the critics and fans of current gen to avoid a flop, and pleasing old fans/not chasing them away,
So if your games have 2 decades between them, like in this case, aesthetics and game mechanics will be mish mash
only people gonna put respek on KI's name are those who were there. And that percentage gets lower the older we get
