Can a new FG make it big?

You also don’t have understanding.

Having an opinion on a matter is not the same as having an opinion on behalf of somebody else on a matter. There is a clear difference. You can have an opinion on the matter all you want, but you can’t pretend that your opinion speaks on behalf of those that the matter is related to.
This goes over the head of many guys on feminist-related articles/blogs all the time, and is ridiculously annoying.

If he had said “The game developers wanted to/intended to have Bayonetta… doing the same thing for girls - let them feel themselves strong, attractive and independent.” or “I think Bayonetta was trying to [do] the same thing for girls - let them feel themselves strong, attractive and independent.” it would have been him expressing what it seems or he thinks Bayonetta did in regard to the female gender.
But he instead said on the behalf of the female gender, that Bayonetta **did **do this and was successful at it.

No, try this:
You’re not a girl? You shouldn’t form an opinion that says **what **and why girls should/shouldn’t like something, unless you actually formed it via discussion with other girls, in which case you’re summarizing actual opinions of others in the other gender group (not pulling an opinion on females out of the inter-machinations of your male mind).

Get it, bro?

I never said my opinion was on the behalf of others.

And who says that the opinions I’ve formed haven’t been formed with discussions with females?

The only opinion of yours I’ve seen is from the last post. And it looked like it was targeted directly at me, because otherwise it makes no contextual sense.

And one doesn’t SAY one’s opinion is on the behalf of others. NOBODY does that. They instead directly inject their opinion as on the behalf of others. Guy says “Girls should like X because of this and that.”

And who says that the opinions I’ve formed haven’t been formed with discussions with females?

We were never talking about your opinions on some female-based matter, what the hell are you bringing up?

If your comment “X can’t talk about Y which is related to Z because X isn’t Z” wasn’t directed at my response to saint… then sorry. It’s just REALLY random if it wasn’t directed at me.

Listening to the Ask Dr. SubZero live show archive.

Shog was saying just show how fun the game is, show off all the fun things you can do, that’s how John Rockefeller started to like SFxT, someone showed off the game and how you can play it.

Hi
From my personal experiences, I’ve learned that top players can show you how fun a game can be…even if you already tried it out yourself and hate it. I guess its another form of inspiration? I remember hating Third Strike when I first played it at a local arcade. A few years later, I met Frankie3s, Victoly & his older brother Alex and I saw the way they played Ryu with Denjin Hadoken which at the time no one touched at all. They inspired me to run more arcade tournaments & start Denjin Video to record the events. Another example is MvC2 when a ton of glitches & infinite combos were discovered. I thought, ‘wow what a pos game!’ I ran into Amir at a local MvC2 tournament and we both watched SooMighty’s MSP. Soo’s execution & his mind-fucking resets made my jaw drop. Soo’s skills got me so jealous & mad at myself for judging this game off of glitches & infinites. I felt like I missed out on a lot of fun that I could have had with MvC2

I can keep going with these ‘Wow!’ moments. Daigo’s EVO Parry, Ricky Ortiz’s Nakoruru from CvS1, Combofiend & Kindevu from CvS2, NIN’s Steve dominating Tekken 5 at SBO, Joe from Japan displaying C.Viper’s true potential, Ojisanboy’s Sagat, Sako’s Cammy, Poonko’s Yomi Seth, Fanatiq’s Storm in MvC3, Knives Spencer, Bum’s Haggar, Marlin Pie’s Viper, Clakey D’s Hugo in SFxT, even popular games that people trash on the internet like League of Legends - Shushei’s AP Alistar & Gragas at Season 1 Finals, Dyrus’s Singed & Jax, M5 dominating season 2

My point is when a top player can display a combination of skills & execution on any game, they can make it look fun. Others will watch and be inspired. They will follow by playing & supporting the game

They need to get it out there more. The Gamespot and Gametrailers were a good start, taking it to as many tournaments as possible was also great, but they need to take it to the next level. Petition Mr Wizard to get it at Evo 2013 on the main stage. Pay Mike Ross to get it on Excellent Adventures. Do their own version of Cross Assault. Send out free copies to everybody. Get as many mainstream fighting game players as possible saying “holy shit this game owns! buy it now!”.

Sign a deal with Sony where the Vita gets the DLC characters a year before the PS3 and 360!
