Nobody will be Season 1 Cell. Ever. GT Goku in season 2 maybe, I guess lol…
Jiren definitely got some really significant stuff though. That 214S buff is insane. It will literally parry anything that isn’t a super, and it’s harder to just raw vanish out of it too.
Only time will tell in terms of where he stands now. I have a feeling ArcSys might have overdone it, but I guess we’ll see lol. I’d rather him be too strong than where he was before, either way.
Yeah, ialso think they will retell and retcon the sf3 story.
I j7st hope that is better handled than the fall of shadaloo story mode which was a joke.
I already see story modes as a waste of time and resources that could be put into the real core of the games, but i understand that they are needed for the casual fans who make the majority of the sales.
But at least put some effort into it
If it has to be bad, at least let it be an spectacle like the terribad story modes of nrs games.
At least it was better than whatever was the mvci shit they passed as story.
But that isnt really much, lol.
Like you said if Capcom wants SF to push units they gotta actually put some effort into the single player. I think NRS single player experience is cheeks but the size of their checkbook says they’re doing something right.
Throw in some character customization on top of a half decent story mode I think they’d have something. For whatever reason gamers today like watching video games or using them as virtual dress-up instead of playing.
Story ain’t even that good but it pads out content and actually makes casuals feel like they got something beyond “Training mode, offline VS or shitty online” for 60 bucks.
Good single player content draws more people than harmful experiments like oversimplifying games and dumb autocombo nonsense.
Ehhhh, i wouldnt really attribute their checks to their single player efforts, at least not only that.
Imo is a combination of brand and mass appeal to the common denominator that thinks violence and gore equals maturity.
And add the WB deep pockets that allows for a far bigger reach.
Lets not forget that before they rebooted everything with MK9, Mk and midway were actually losing money.
I really want to see nrs trying their hands at something original to see how much success will have without brand recognition like mk and inj.
To see if normies will flock to it because is nrs.
