The FGC liked SFxT and SFV at launch, too. I can definitely see the FGC turning on this game in the next few months, especially around the time DBF releases. It's not guaranteed or anything but the FGC liking a game at launch doesn't mean a lot to me.

I doubt the arrival of DBFZ will affect MVCI in the FGC.
Oh man! No Shiki or Lee is a huge disappointment, two of the most fun characters in the original game!

100% won't happen.
I wouldn't get too excited with the original leaker calling this bs.

Unless Capcpom do something equivalent to SFV Season 2 for this game, I don't really see the opinion on this game changing much.
To me it's all bs until we get something out of SNK.
FGC will turn on the game if/when the tiers and teams get stratified and Capcom's balance patch makes things worse.
We are still well in the exploration phase of the game and stuff is figured out daily. That's enough to keep things interesting for folks in the meantime. And then we have DLC characters coming at a fast clip so there is stuff to look forward.
After Battle of the Stones who knows how things will shake out with the game. Like of course this game will be at EVO and will do well there but beyond that who knows.
Edit: And just as I make the post... Capcom announces DLC characters for $8...

How did you not notice when they were revealed over an hour ago XD
Was at work, just got off for lunch break to check GAF.
I mean if I see an Arksys fan here talking shit about that price considering that is the company that started this $8 nonsense...

8 bucks is a fuck ton for a character, that character better fucking have 8 bucks worth of effort put into making them
Terumi is probably the one 8 buck character I would say wasn't worth the 8 bucks

Why would it remove Melee? If anything the bad reception Infinite is getting is all the more reason to keep it.

They still are that's arcsys character pricing.
Though on the flip side of all that they typically give you a majority of the dlc characters free when the games first come out and you are typically only paying for 1 for 8 bucks if you have to pay for any.
6 characters for 8 each is kinda crazy lol
If the spacing is far apart it wont be too bad but if they release them all up front it's not a good look
CP had 1 8 buck character you bought the other was free
CF had 2 8 buck characters you bought, seperated by 10 months almost that was part of a free version update
CS is the one with the most you had to buy at 3 and they were 2 months apart and 7 months that was part of a free version update

While I'm not at all saying that 8$ isn't a freaking ridiculous price, the Season Pass does make it like 5$ per character. And considering that unlike SFV, you actually get half the characters at the same time then it's not too tough to just wait for reviews/impressions before buying it.

This is making Ultra/Super editions look good because this would just be a 15 dollar upgrade

Most people dont like missing characters on their roster so they are gonna bite down on the season pass anyways. They might as well not sell them for 8 each at all because all that is is them being scummy and rigging the single character values so you want to drop 30 on the season pass
What if you buy them and you never play them again?
This is a terrible argument you are trying to bring up here. Like the for analogy was bad enough but you don't want to go down this route.

fuckin' called it, man
If you could have gotten the same results at the prices they used to charge and prices that others similar games do, then yes.

I think he was being sarcastic to make fun of people who think MvC:I reused models.

a lot of the people who defend Capcom FG's are just ridiculously asinine it's impossible that they exists. I try not to get roped in these conversations because it's like trying to explain left and right to a blind man.

Capcom made Ducktales Remastered so they're the GOAT as far as I'm concerned tbh tbh

Im glad they redid the final stage instead of the wack ass final stage the nes version had
This was a sarcastic post that you got baited by.

Man I really hope the final build of BB cross doesnt start you with 3 supers and that the assist bar refils a lot slower, that or make it so the diamonds earned from using assist takes 2 assist for 1.
Unless this is a 2 round game then the assist stuff is fine but the supers still need to be cut back they do hella damage

He said earlier on that Disney is putting a lot of money into MVCI.
Today when the word got out that the game was on a shoe string budget, he was called out on his comment and said his source was joking.

To clarify, when I say the FGC might "turn on MvCI" I mean players will snarkily shit on the game and talk about leaving it behind for other fighting games butill play it/enter tournaments/etc.

They should have let the scene just rock with MvC3 for a bit more and ride the rerelease sell trickle
