I mean none of this matters if you play Kevin/ hate everything and everyone.
Garou is like an unloved child. It did a lot of dumb shit that wasn’t even fun (stuff that is randomly safe on block that looks unsafe, throw bug, Kevin, literal 9-1 match ups but unlike 3S, Garou’s system mechanics didn’t really help enough to make these match ups winnable) but I feel the core of the game is good and that if it got a sequel or at least an update, it could have been a much better game. Feints are fucking sick, fireballs aren’t worthless, and offense and good pressure are rewarded very well, there is so much to like imo.
Well that is how things should be normally work & i agree with you that.But if we look back SNK’s past records they have good a record of developing good/quality games & if they goes bankrupt (Because SNK’s current financial position) will we able to see these good games (KOF, SS, MOTW) develop by SNK in future ? Of-course quality of the game may suffer little bit due their financial standings now in their present games but by ensuring SNK’s survival in their difficult times, we are giving them to chance continue, improve & to develop good/quality games in future.
Whatever, it’s your money, spend it however you feel. I’m personally not going to waste my time on buying a bad game (if it does turn out to be bad) just to hope that they get enough money to MAYBE make a better game down the line.
Yea no. I’m not gonna support shit in hope I will get something better next time. As a customer, not my position to give a shit about their financial situation.
All I’m saying give them a little chance to stand up for them selves now & a chance to make better games future, even after reading my previous posts if that is what you believe then it is k.
This isn’t some upstart company. They’ve been around the block and back. If this is the time that they have to go down then so be it. They gave us multiple quality games already to be content with. If they want to continue into the future though they have to learn the one thing they have yet to. Consistent game quality. They can’t afford to take every other game off anymore.
Some believe they should go down & some believe should stay in industry who loves the quality games that they have developed & know in future times, they will continue to do so, it just matter of opinions of different people so it is k.
No one wants to see a company fail but the thought of support a company until they produce something good is naive. If the company catches wind that fans will buy whatever they produce regardless of quality their products will never improve. SNKP can get away with porting the same games all the time knowing their fanbase would snatch it up.
You have to see the big picture here because SNK’s situation is unique, assume the next KOF game become a success due to our support.This will give a signal to SNK’s current owners that investing in SNK’s projects will be benefiting to them.So they will most likely give SNK’s enough funds to start new quality projects like new SS, MOTW, LB etc (because they have said that they want to follow MARVEL’s formula in other words to create new business opportunities) & As you said rational buyers will only buy quality games so to attract new buyers & to protect their fan base they have to be competent in the industry, in other words they have to produce quality games(Other than KOFXII & KOF2k1 since when did they made crappy games ?) & this will take time but at the end this will be benefit to both SNK & us.
They just need a chance from us to show their new owners that’s their investment was not a waste, that’s all & it is your choice whether to give them a chance or not.
This situation is not unique. Company makes game, game is successful, they make a sequel or other games. That’s how every company works. If it can’t produce quality products and fails because of it then they will crash and burn and rightfully so.
whoa buddy, can we wait until we at least play the game before we judge it. And keep in mind, SF4 is and always has been ugly as sin, but the genuine consensus is that it’s a overall great game
How do you think they make sequels? Do you think from profits? I’m sorry but that is wrong if you thought that.Why do you think even SFIV was such success Ono said that he has no money to make SFV for another 5 years & finally went to Sony? It because someone has to make that investment to make these games or they have to make a own investment by taking loans & these investment will be only made if it is worth.Clearly KOFXIV was not an investment from their new owners since the project was started around last year so we can assume this is SNK’s own investment & that is must be a limited one due to their financial statues.
If we think about quality of the KOF XIV from their limited investment, graphics & netcode are only my concerns now because I’m sure about others since they are SNK.But there are players here who not support a game just because the graphics are little bit downgraded & I’m just requesting them to reconsider their decesions because future games of SNK we might be not facing these concerns.
But if you are believing SNK has to be crash & burn just because of little bit of downgraded graphics then it is k man but I believe SNK should continue to stay in industry because I like the games they make so I’m ready to give them a chance.
