Also also, I don’t think Granblue plays like SF at all. Reminds me of P4A more than any other franchise.
Don’t see how it caters to that player base and I don’t recall Arcsys marketing it as such.
Pokemon makes me sad and I refuse to talk about it.

Devs literally said they based the game on ST.
For real tho, anyone still playing it or planning to on PC?
I had to watch my nephew try and play Pokemon: Sword and he was so fucking bad that it actually makes me sad and also has me thinking that my nephew might be LD or something.
Why does it feel like I’m playing Persona then? Dunno I didn’t get a ST feel at all.

That duck face also makes me sad. Also, her trying to make an electric mouse sexy makes me sad. Also her cheeks aren’t even red, so shitty cosplay makes me sad.

If you’ve put quite a bit of pride into getting really good at one game you really like(d), through the power of sheer grinding and experience, a lot of people can’t be arsed to learn a new one. Or even try another game on the side, because they’re afraid it’ll negatively affect the results of the game / series they are good at. It’s a big part of why SF and Tekken are so big in Norway; most people don’t play FGs, they play one of those specific series (or in the case of SF, played, because SFV is less popular than most of the sidegames we run around here).
And, if you’re playing to compete, winning a really stacked but rather small tournament psychologically feels less impressive than winning a larger tournament where the skill level is all over the place. And everyone and their dog has played Tekken and SF. Fuck, last national championship had a woman in her 50s entering Tekken 7. You’ll never see something like that in GBVS or KOF, because they’re not the sort of name everyone knows.
Flawed logic? Might well be. But then again, if you asked all of the SF-guys who kinda like the game to switch to another FG, and their approach is still to stick to that one game because they only play one FG, you wouldn’t end up with one new big game, you’d end up with several medium sized ones. So I think it’s understandable even though I don’t agree with them.

I dunno, but if you feel like you’re playing P4A, then you should pick it up and play with me. 
(Come on guys, I don’t wanna buy this game to stomp Discord goons.)
Also I know the devs said GBVS was “inspired by ST”, but it sure as hell feels more like an ArcSys title with the airdashes removed than it feels like a pre-SFV Street Fighter game.

Feels like P4A, but no air dashes, slow walk speed, no Yousuke, no Aigis, no Chie etc. 
I’m grinding league of legends and Tekken right now.
Here feel better.

Granblue definitely feels like Street fighter and anime had a baby.

I love Xfactor for the tension it brings, when watching matches it’s like a climatic moment but it’s not fun at all when your playing the game.
So we’re complaining about online being shit while talking about tournament numbers?
And if we somehow are talking about players online, how comes it took a fucking pandemic and the removal of all games with Shit online from competition (which hilariously includes the removal of SFV) for the game with good, nay great online to post numbers?
Nah. If you played P4A you’d immediately feel the similarities.
It honestly does not feel like SF.
Closer comparison would be P4A and GG had a baby with no air dashes.

What the issue with Tatsunoko vs Capcom I skipped the game because of not being on Xbox and Playstation.
It wasn’t bad right? I don’t see much negative criticism with it than what UMVC3 and MVCi had been talked about gameplay mechanics or I wasn’t aware if there are some?
