What went Wrong?

...

People are getting stupider and are now content with watching other people play games.

>people streaming Fifa 16

jesus watching 90 mins of nothing happened until some dumb defender fucked up is more interesting.

nintendo won

>clash royale
how does a shitty mobile game have this many views?

>Super Mario Maker 1.7k

No, what went wrong with that shit?

FGCucks getting blown out, as usual.

Nu-evolve is good, something SFV is not.

Street Fighter is just a boring game to watch with very few good, well designed characters. There's a reason that Ryu isn't iconic, despite representing a big series. Because he's so generic.

>the most watched game only has around 40.000 views
I think what's happenning is that the overwhelming majority of people play the games themselves instead of watching other people play them OP.

It promised a shitload of stuff, one of them being "an easier experience for new players", something that couldn't be more far from the truth and it still hasn't delivered on all the rest, all the while shitting out useless "community" dlc and blowing money on esports fake hype.

If anything went right its just the TnA and OST.

>Ryu isn't iconic
DEEEEEEERP

>Derp
Jesus Christ, where have you come here from?

How THE FUCK do people find Forza and Fifa interesting in the least?

Except it IS an easier game to get into. To this day, not a session goes by where I play Street Fighter IV where I don't think to myself a variation of the word "bullshit".

Street Fighter IV was a game designed for autists. Street Fighter V is how a fighting game is properly designed.

...

Where have YOU come here from just two weeks ago?

Autists and plebs too poor to even buy the games for themselves. They're irrelevant.

Normalfags

Why did you bring up Forza?

That's an admirable speed you have of cathing onto memes kid, but if you had been for any length of time proper you would know what derp means, and its history on the site.

You just have a very "foreign" way of posting, and if you think le generic karate man is "iconic" then you're deluded.

fighting games are niche, they're too hard to get into for the average gamer

of course nobody's going to watch it

>you just mad me look bad on Sup Forums so I will spout bullshit to try and divert attention from how I have no knowledge of fighting game culture
FTFY

Those are great numbers for a year-old singleplayer game.

Because when Xboners try to defend their console they bring up Forza as if it holds a candle Mario Kart, Midnight club, or fuck, even the racing in GTA.

Why did you bring up Xboners?

Spoken like a true casual. Did you ever try other series, see how you'll like those?

And the point about it being less accesible still stands. Its a 90% reads/guesses game where wakeup 50/50s are still in, but now everyone can do them. Its also AA neutered so any casual can jump in and do their thing without watching out for the neutral, priority normals system also helps with this. Except casuals will never benefit from those, only the same people who kept playing and grinding their days away at previous games and have built up some neutral experience. Casuals will never care for stuff like that but will forever continue to get blown away by them.

>people would rather play good video games than watch them
GEE WHO WOULD HAVE THOUGHT

Not a serious fighting game

And you should know that certain memes have been stolen by normalfags and dragged through the mud. They've been destroyed and using them here is irredeemable.

Here's your (You).

And how are other fighting games more accessible? SFV is one of the least complicated fighting games out there right now.

Because
>he bought a wii u

They are mainly because they don't have the mechanics which I described. Being able to complete your combos doesn't mean shit when the opponent has a read on you or just throws random hits that land into 30% of your lifebar because there's a system that says "my slower heavy hit will cancel out your faster medium hit". You'll get steamrolled without landing a single hit, let alone a combo.

And no matter how much you grind you'll never get better with just execution training and even setups. Because everything is a read, every single hit is a guess, there's no reactionary gameplay except AA which like I wrote: neutered. When faced with anyone it'll be as all your experience playing means nothing if you don't have prior experience with said player, not his character, the human player.

only niggers and autists/weebs like fighters and you're not as big a market as you'd like to be so maybe thats it

if you had personalities playing like dsp and soon to return ltg you'd see at least 2k right there .
but most people that want to git gud buy the game, twitch is only for displaying something worthwhile like a tournament or something interactive.

SFV got over 200k viewers on ESPN

Your shitty party game will NEVER be on TV.

>"Game Culture"
How embarrassing. Please refrain from posting in future.

the launch of sfv was so fucking pathetic, it's hilarious how terrible every single thing around the actual gameplay is.

Heroes of the Storm is on ESPN2 now and then.

Game still dead as fuck.

>sf chars
>not iconic
what

SFV never get a hold of me,I don't even bother to watch EVO final this year,i just read the result.

we were born in poverty nigga

you think this is meant to insult us?

You're better off for it user, trust me. I watched the stream archive.
>e-sports "hype"
>Inflitration looks like he wants to go home after winning it all

Only one who was genuinely hype was LI Joe, real happy for him but if we have to be honest he did get a bit lucky in the brackets. SF has reached an all time low in boredom.

>Sfv
>good

>vidya gaems are srs bsns


Fgcucks are at an all time low.

No good streamer

The same with Overwatch and every other game. The streamer determines the viewers, not the game.

>90 mins

Wanna know how I know you've never played the game, user?

>I've never played FIFA
Fucking 90 minutes kek.

this

So what's the point of this thread then?

>is more interesting

i think he was referring to real feetsball

it's not surprising, the game isn't bad but it's not great either. I have no idea why they were so confident in marketing this game and putting up money for tournaments and stuff. Wish they would have done it with iv instead.
