Watch Yukes license out their existing engine to the lowest bidder and we get a ROH or Impact game that�s a re-skin of 2k19 like that one ECW game for N64 that was just the pre-THQ WWE game with ECW models.

Is Fire Pro fun/worth getting if my interest is solely in actually playing matches and not doing fantasy booking or universe mode style play?

That�s the main thing I�m looking for in a 2k alternative. The CHIKARA game looks like it could fill that but there no PS4 port yet

Yeah, it might not be for me. I seem to be kinda an exception now in treating wrestling games like fighting games and wanting just to play through matches rather than sim or build out booking.

I�m really curious how they�ll implement Orange Cassidy into the game.

My best guess is to have an extremely limited move set with hands in pockets to start the match, only really able to dodge, kip up and do the suicide dive. You�ll then have a separate �special� meter that fills up like finishers normally do that either unlocks the full moves or gives you a limited time burst of moves.

It's got a lot of freedom in the creation suite and I like to gently caress around with that. I find it relaxing in a way that other people probably find Animal Crossing relaxing, or doing mundane side quests in Red Dead.

I�m the same way, I spend most of my time in wrestling games making CAWs

I think they stopped all support for the game a while back.

They kept the 2k19 servers online because 2020 was such a mess. The big CAW designers are all mostly still working in 2k19 and they�ll be keeping it online until 2k22 or whatever the next main title is.

That�s pretty much the gist of it, yeah. It�s janky as hell, but that�s the appeal. Part of the fun is working out the best way to game the wonky rear end systems.

As someone said above MDickie games are bonkers but there�s an internal logic that keeps it from just being bad.

Is the full game worth it if I was struggling with the demo? I was wondering if having the full features and characters might catch my interest better.

I think I�m in the need of a new wrestling game after getting burned out playing against tier 100 CAWs on 2k19. Been leaning towards the Retromania game when it�s out for PlayStation.

The PS5 and Series X ARE the current gen. If the console out, it�s not Next gen anymore.

Although leave it to WWE to treat an established thing as �in development� and call it NeXT

I�d probably play as Cage and Fenix first due to having insane move sets, but I�m very curious how/if they try to translate Cassidy in the game. Maybe they�ll bring back the combo feature from WCW World Tour except orange�s are all just light shin kicks.

On 2k19 they�ve added a screen saying that servers are coming down soon but no date has been provided yet. I think they don�t want to commit to a date in case 2k22 is another complete mess.

If I�m remembering correctly usually the servers would go down the April after the next game�s release, which was usually October. Might be earlier this time considering they�ve extended it.
