Honestly, we’re spoiled with the developers being so responsive and watching our (not mine, but the communities) high level play. Nether Realms, and Capcom are amazing companies, and I hate mortal kombat… but if we werrent spoiled… meh, i’d say you could play a stock game for 5 years, competitively, and casually after that.
A lot of people still play CvS2, both here and in Japan… And new shit’s coming out to the point where I see more SNK characters, particularly Kyo, Rugal, Kim, Terry, Hibiki, and Iori… And it’s not even all CC nonsense… It’s actually legit combos and beasting. That Kim corner loop is nuts.
Also… MvC2 isn’t better than CvS2. When I was a child, I thought that… but as a man, I’ve learned to appreciate taste… E.g. MvC2 = swag, that which is for boys. CvS2 = Class, that which is for men, and more specifically, men with dignity.
The problem with the one you linked was it was based off the pixel aspect(where the pixels are square) when the sprite shouldn’t be that wide.
Here is a quick example how it should look.
