Evolution of Fighting Games

[True_Tatsu]

Welcome to the SRK, home of those who generally like the stuff you mentioned, as not making a fighter game, in a fighter game.

You may [media=youtube]LgPDkFbX2X0"[/media] SRK from your previous save point either…

I basically signed up to share my opinion on this subject

I can tell from this phrase alone that you are a douche. :tup:

[Dhgriff9]

In short: Someone is trolling and everyone is giving him the attention he wants including my self hypocrisy here by replying to the topic. Correct?

[specs]

Lots of fail in this thread, both OP and afterwards.

I’ll be the nice guy. Or I’ll try. Playcircus, a lot of the things you mentioned in your first post are things that other games have and feature. The folks who play fighting games play them for what they are. If we wanted to play an RPG, we’d play Final Fantasy, if we wanted a beat em up, we’d play Final Fight, etc etc.

Fighting games have evolved quite a bit since SF2 hit the streets.

Also, I don’t play other people most of the time, BUT that’s what fighting games are made for. Competition. They’re meant to be played by more than one person.

If you haven’t tried it out, you should check out SOul Calibur III. It’s a great game when played by yourself but becomes something of a broken mess when you try to play it against someone else. Go figure.

Playcircus, wiser words have never been spoken. If there is a God in the heavens, I hope only that he reads SRK, and somehow places you in game design.

Anyway, I just want to spread my views to help the genre, the more eyes see this stuff the better it will get for fighting games in my opinion, this is probably the worst place to have an actual discussion on it

I had the same deal when Fallout 3 was coming out, just like I’m a huge fighting game fan I was a huge Fallout fan, and just like you guys the other Fallout fans wanted 2D, all the same mechanics, and they were basically still living in the past where all games were 2D with all the aspects that were used because of necessity not because they thought it was best that way

Yes, they all found the old way to be the most strategic because of mechanical exploits like mindgames, which you can basically find in any game, from Pong to Barbie Adventures, it’s just exploiting the lack of freedom and the restrictive mechanical gameplay style, in a game like Fight Night the gameplay is much more varied because you have more control and freedom

I guess I’ve stirred the bees nest a little too much, sorry about that, I’ll head back to 2009 and leave you guys alone.

It’s a niche genre. Don’t fuck with it.

… Why don’t you just play a damn rpg if you want an rpg.

Have you ever even played a fighter at a decent level?

Does Pokemon count?

On a more serious note, Perfect KO has both Ken and Chun Li.

I guess I’ve stirred the bees nest a little too much, sorry about that, I’ll head back to mom’s basement and kill myself.

Sweet.

Surely you guys cannot be happy with the same carbon copy games coming out over and over, even Street Fighter 4 is just a better looking Street Fighter

Yes we are…seriously.

[10_Stars]

I like how he says carbon copy. He obviously hasnt played at a competitive level in any game.

[wolfox_okamicha]

You know, it reminds me of fanboys who only play Smasis shoved away by people

[OJ4]

the dude who made this thread is stupid

You cannot see the actual gameplay in fighting games. This is why you made a long ridiculous post. It would be nice to see fighting games that break from the norm, but none of these would be real innovation.

[System_1]

Go play Shenmue. There’s a reason why there isn’t another game such as you described in over a decade.

[mrshmearo]

Time for this guy to make another username if he wants to post on SRK in the future

Is Def Jam a fighting game? Yes. Is Bushido Blade a fighting game? Yes. Is Kengo: Master of Bushido a fighting game? Yes. Bloody Roar? Even Soul Calibur is an original fighting game compared to all the Street Fighter clones, at least Soul Calibur has attempted to evolve a little

What… Soul Calibur has been pretty much the same since Soul Blade, except for the jumping height. And I’m not sure I liked that change even :shake:

Anyway, like people are saying… Seems you don’t really want to play a fighting game at all, or/and you don’t know the true nature of the fighting game gameplay.

Edit: Also, I think the fundamental problem here is that you seem to care more about single player. We care about the multiplayer here. Again, like someone said… GameFAQs might be the place you want to be.

[System_1]

topic poster needs to take his mindless wall of text back to where it belongs on gamefaqs

[Mizuki]

Jesus fucking christ, OP you’re fucking dumb as bricks.

There has been evolution in FGs, we wouldn’t have Guilty Gear and shit around then. 95% of the shit you posted you wanted to see has been done before, and you wonder why people aren’t making games like that? Because NO ONE LIKES THEM. There’s been experiments before, it’s been 20 years since FGs been around tons of shit have happened. Go back living under your rock. You want a RPG Fighter? Play Kwon Ho, OOPS it’s gone I wonder why.
