literally lost over half its entrants
combo breaker is the only tournament so far in 2017 to gain entrants (and it was only 14)

sure there's still a few weeks left on registration, but lol

imagine thinking SFV is a good game in the year of our lord 2017

Every game should look up to Guilty Gear

ASW is a bunch of lazy hacks when it comes to balance and localization though, fuck them

BlazBlue is half the series it used to be smh

I've only played BlazBlue CPEX, which I loved.

CF having no dub and hearing the dev shenanigans put me off

I was pretty good back in the BlazBlue Continuum S:EX days tbh tager is great

You and everyone else; it sold look crap and probably won't make it to next year's EVO with the horrible balance

honestly

in america i feel like ASW is pushing GG way harder than BB

BB is huge in japan but struggling to find its feet in the west

GG is growing rapidly in the US scene, especially with REV 2 being fresh

i dont think BB will be at evo 2018 as a main game in all honesty
---

BB was ASW's A-game for CT/CS because they couldn't get hold of GG

Then when they reintroduced GG around the time CP game out they realized it was more popular than they thought it was

So naturally by the time Rev came out they realized it needs to be their A-game and gave Central Fiction the boot

The irony in this is that they mentioned forsaking the dub in order to release the game sooner

Yup

Release it in fucking AAA-game November instead of literally any month this year so far smh

I think they just wanted to put it out there so they could focus on GG again and that's why it's being neglected

Either way I'm curious to see what they're gonna do for the Switch

But if it's a half-assed port or Extend version then they can count me out

Exactly. A far much better fighting game than SF V.

that would explain the recent smash bros hate from "real fighting games" fans.

Capcom only have themselves to blame first they release half a game at full price and then casualize the fuck out of it alienating pros.

If you compare this year's entrants to last years entrants, every game had a massive drop in entrants

Registration is still open, a lot of people do it last minute, the tournament isn't for another 2 weeks

Stop reaching bruh

Every SFV tourney went down except Combo Breaker which was +14. Numerous games doubled at Combo Breaker. Sure, every game is lower at CEO, but only SFV has been lower at almost every single tojrnament.

Back to r/sf for you
