I have some bad news for you...
It's the kinda thing that makes me miss Satoru Iwata. I haven't even bought anything Nintendo-related for years but I still respected the man for who he was and what he stood for since the man was willing to cut his own salary in order to make sure that none of the lower-level people lost their jobs and so that none of those that didn't lose their jobs would worry about the next time that job cuts would happen. That's how you lead.
Damn I miss arcades.
Are you sure about that? Maybe you'd be okay with that, but people were raging about this kinda stuff even pre-launch. Like how NRS would sometimes take 1 or 2 weeks more than usual to announce something. Remember when they had the mobile game Kast and everyone got pissed off when it had nothing new about MK11?
It’s because it was set up so perfectly though. Remember how mkx was such a bummer when it had months of nothing at a time? Then they come out in December saying the game will be out in 4 months. I said holy fucking shit that’s awesome. I even joined this website lol. My expectations were set high because I was thinking wow 4 straight months of nothing but mk news. Just over the top 4 month marketing like it should be. My thought was NRS has their fucking shit together this time. I think a lot of people felt “let down” this way and it’s mostly our own fault but you can blame them setting the bar that and not being able to jump it.
"Oh, games like Street Fighter 2 had patches. They just cost the amount of a full-price game. You kids nowadays are spoiled with your free patches."
I'm absolutely sure about that. I'm of firm belief that day 1 mk11 was not a $60 game. this would have nothing to do with announcements or their mobile game bullshit. it would be them literally holding back the release of the game so we can get a better refined and finished product and so this crunch stuff wouldn't have happened or be nearly as severe
as if people didn't complain about sf5 being unfinished but go onpeople complaining about MK11 being unfinished when SFV was released in the state it was
What the fuck does street fighter have anything to do with MK11? Nothing.people complaining about MK11 being unfinished when SFV was released in the state it was
You say that, but the countless posts on this forum say otherwise.
And what does the game today have that makes it a $60 game over day1. In terms of content it's 100% exactly the same. The only difference is in the experience in some of the incidental side things like the Krypt/ToT etc, and 1 or 2 minor patches.
It has to do with the fact that when Street Fighter V came out, it was a pretty bare-bones fighting game. There was no story mode, the servers were broken, the game had bugs, there were issus with input latency, and there was a lack of characters (16 at launch, 19 came afterward). I pre-ordered the game, I remember the issues it had at launch.
Most people were/are annoyed because of how weird and inconsistent their marketing has been. Not to mention there is no road map for the KP. We paid for it, but we don't know what or when we're getting all that stuff and we're supposed to just be happy with that?
