Everyone should play DUKE games.

:dukedog:
A game that looks like Street Fighter V and also has League of Legends characters, they could put Geese AND Terry in it and I still don't think I'd be interested.

But will they update the fighting game characters when they inevitably rework the characters in the base game?

It looks nothing like SFV except for maybe the ui?

The movement of the animation reminds me of rising thunder otherwise it doesn't look like much of anything to me

And it's the devs of rising thunder iirc so yeah not surprised it looks like it moves similarly

I wonder if fighting games will become like prestige movies for big film studios, some small division that they label as "indie" to put out Oscar bait. "This is what the real hardcore play, it's not for everyone but that's part of why it's great!" Every big dumb game studio run by abusive, racist, sexist, LGBTQIA-phobic scumbags will throw together a small studio of devs that worked on a game with a good Metacritic rating, except they have no idea what makes a good fighting game good (and the fact that even then it's usually a result of either lightning in a bottle, 3+ revisions, or being Tekken which really doesn't change too much between games anyways) and introduce some really poorly thought out "accessibility" mechanics, alongside mountains of microtransactions that make ASW's $8 a character shenanigans or Netherrealm's "preorder to actually get all the characters on the disc" look quaint. The game will bomb, and they decide it's just easier to pick up a studio making a game that shows promise and murdering the poo poo out the studio after.

For that to happen people would have to actually buy fighting games to play them competitively.

Oscar bait works because people care about Oscars and it's pretty clear what the oscar voters like. Nobody, relatively speaking, gives a poo poo about fighting games, and the committee as such just wants ST and mvc2 over and over again.

I used too many words to say I'm dumb. I don't know. I got it in my head that the LoL fighter would spark "we gotta have one of those!" reactions from other pubs that run super-popular cash vacuums of games for prestige reasons, but Chumbler pointed out that was pretty unlikely. If they do anything it'd probably be trying to get a character in Smash.

nboody in the west cares about fighting games and japanese publishers are more likely to want a fighting game just because they like fighting games than for prestige reasons, yea

Well, if that happened it would be pretty funny, so I hope it does.

Game companies seem to chase the easy money rather than anything prestigious. Way back when every arcade game publisher was making a rip off of either Street Fighter or Mortal Kombat since that's what was hot.

Fighting games can sell incredibly well, just look at Mortal Kombat 11 and Smash this year, but not for prestige reasons. Riot probably knows this and is going for the same group of people who play LoL with bots 100% of the time.

Feels like this would be better served with an arcade stick so you could put wasps in more buttons. Still cool.

Do you need to account for the weight of the button being different from the old plastic cap or does it not have an effect?

So how about just filling your stick with wasps and having a WASP RELEASE switch?

You when you read my posts:
This is starting a whole new controller arms race parallel to the hitbox issue.

-One that shoots out that instantly hardening foam they use for rioters to coat the opponent's stick.
-One that shoots oil out so their stick keeps slipping around.
-Aimable laser pointer to shine in their eyes.

Basically Daigo was a lot more forward-thinking with that divider he would strap on his stick than he was expecting.

The original button is just a solid piece of plastic resting on a spring, the weight of a yellow jacket makes no actual difference compared to the plastic it displaces.
