god damn it

Reminder to play melee

Because fighting games are niche, they want a bigger audience.

Just play pokken and ARMS

I realize your game takes skill and stuff, just like our (older) games, but it's not my kind of thing. I just am not into smash, I'm an FGC guy.

Admittedly Tekken 7 feels less geared towards advanced play yet the only people still playing are Tekken masters anyway.

idk about tekken besides they added rage arts

That's why KI is the best FG of this generation.

Yeah I'm sure you play fighting games to call Rev 2 or KOF dumbed down, OP.

I played accent core and 02 and 13 for years, manlet

Right. Riiiiiiight. Anyhow, have fun with your little bait thread, shitposter.

I played kof02 in arcades for years

Just stick with the classics. SFII, Kof98/2002 and SFIII are all really active on fightcade. These games have skill ceilings higher than all of the current gen fighters combined.

What's Pokken a dumbed down version of?

Killer Instinct did it right with combo assist.

Tekken 7 feels pretty fun to play and watch but its also a game that mostly legacy players excel at since it requires so much knowledge and muscle memory to get good at, Id say the biggest upset is the rage art or rage drive for a comeback mechanic but you know when a new player gets it theyre gonna throw it out immediately, so you can bait it out.
Also Im having a lot more fun with tekken 7 than tekken tag 2 which I thought the combo system and mechanics were trash.

They did the new games thinking of the new players, who are millennials. And of course, millennials are fucking stupid. That's why they were dumbed down.

What are these called

it's just a shit kiddie game like smash

That doesn't answer my question, but okay.
