Comparing SFV to other fighting games of this generation

[gigglz]

This whole discussion just proves that most people dont think with “time” in the back of their mind.

What did people pay for SF4 up until USF4 (those that started in vanilla and bought each upgrade?): ~120 bucks?
Think of it like that: you have paid that amount of money for vanilla with future updates for free. Huge price for an imcomplete game!

Now we got an “incomplete” game for 60 bucks with the same agenda.

My guess is, in 6 years this game is worth a lot more than 60 bucks and Im fine with that.

I’ve even seen people say they want an updated “Super SFV” version because it will cost less overall than buying all the DLC - displaying an utter lack of awareness of what SFV is. Even though the game has tons of problems, the service model itself is pretty fair in terms of pricing. (For example, you can get some stages and costumes for FM.) The lion’s share of the blame has to fall on Capcom by default, but many of the casuals they’re trying to appeal to can’t seem to grasp the value of what Capcom is doing with this game.

In SF4, you couldn’t pick and choose which characters you want. You buy the updated version, you get everything whether you wanted it or not. In SF5, if you think Ibuki or whoever is a waste of a character slot, you don’t have to pay a cent for her. But if you’re the kind of person who wants every single piece of content for the sake of having it, yeah, it’s going to seem like a rip-off.

With all of this, the game is still THE Street fighter game and for us who enjoy SF game as our main fighting game we will keep playing it and supporting it. Yes MKX is a better product, Yes GGXrd is and Tekken probably will be.

The thing is :

1- i dislike the dude bro ugly ass characters with clunky animations from NRS, i really don’t wanna hear an ass hole saying " I don’t give a flying fuck in my games ".

2- I don’t give a shit about 50 characters with ugly GFX, souless models and everyone running Kyo and Iori.

3- I don’t wanna play super anime.

4- I dislike 3D games.

I enjoy SF. I like playing SF games and despite all of its flaws, i enjoy SF5 more than all of these games combined. It is just what it is.

lol pretty much this. I’ll be giving KoF14 and Tekken 7 a shot, but I already know SFV will be my main fighting game for this generation.

I feel the same way, I guess because I’m not a hardcore fighting game fan to the extent that I’m interested in every single one. I like KI and SFV right now because they look amazing and are easy to learn.
