Gonna assume that this directed to me. You have a misunderstanding, it’s about preference, not ignorance. 2d and 3d gaming was just diverse for me back then, because you can tell them apart by design and have a different experience with them. The reason I dropped the kof series is the same reason I dropped the others. And sorry, I was a fan of all those games, so who are you to say otherwise? By your standards? I don’t acknowledge them, only mine. What you’ve read from earlier is what you get, nothing less. Excuse me for having disagreements.
Hey so I’m not sure how well this would work but does anyone wanna start a SRK-specific KOF leauge. It would be new and old members alike helping each other out and providing info for new players that wanna get into KOF. I know we have sites like dreamcancel and reddit but we have a lot of knowledgable people who post here so maybe having a more centralized hot spot of good info and players will be helpful in growing the scene. In the short set I had with Laban he helped me out a lot, I would like other new players to have that same experience.
That would help KOFXIV’s reputation as people could search it up(after getting over the graphics), see the site, and learn how good XIV really is. If only there was a company named SRK.
It’s ralfs new super for KOFXIV
If the SS rumor is real then I expect them to reveal it some time around Tokyo Game Show, by that time KOF will be pretty close to being out as well.

I wonder what is he meant by C3 edition.
The event is called C3. I think he’s saying it will have a new build.
I thought it was something related to development process, thanks.
Ahhh ok, it’s prob fake then.
On the subject of samurai showdown, alright I’m probably in the extreme minority here but I actually like samurai showdown sen.
Alright so yeah I bet the graphics are a huge issue and maybe the animations aren’t the best but the game plays very solid. When I compare it to other 3D fighters, I actually prefer this over soul calibur. The game is fast paced, the damage output is relatively high and you don’t just have to juggle to get the high damage, stray hits do good damage so the ground game is very strong.

Isn’t this more combo reliant than the normal shamsho? Also, is it just me or is there a severe lack of special moves.
Yeah it’s more combo heavy then most samsho games but comparatively speaking it has less combos then tekken,DOA or VF. It plays mostly grounded like older 3D fighters do before the trend of "high combo count low damage output"became a standard in fighting games.

Maybe that’s why people don’t like it. They’re not thinking about about other games, they’re thinking about how different it is from the other samshos.
KOFXIV would be great timing to give Yuri a faithful redesign. it’s not too late to make Yuri cool like golden age of Shinkiro style KOFs
and instead of Sakura wannabe super skinny moeblob trash. Terry got the MOTW look in I think KOF2003, but thankfully KOFXII brought back classic Terry design fundamentals.
I will never understand how people want characters to stay the same in a series where characters change appearance all the god damn time.

characters like K’ still has the same appearance/design concept since KOF99. Kula still looks like Kula, improved but still have a costume and appearance that is faithful to their original design. it’s one thing updating appearances, but KOF icons should still hold onto their bread and butter style. the only KOF character that received major redesigns each KOF was Athena.
Anyways, SNKP should hire the Mitsurugi Kamui Hikae devs, they know how to do great 3D models, faces and hair, and they accomplished that with a small team at that, SNKP could learn alot about modelling from those experts, their models even look better than some next gen games

Bruh, Kyo has a new outfit and design EVERY SAGA. Andy changes appearance all the time, Beni changes appearance all the time, Terry has a few different looks, Iori has a few different looks, Robert has had like 3 different outfits, KoF characters change looks all the fucking time.
Ikari Warriors had different looks, Kensou had different outfits, Vice and Mature were given new outfits, King gets different looks on hers. Yea, a design change for an SNK character is not a big deal.
