SFV was said to be dead, everytime a new fighting game came... What happened? Nothing.
Exactly. Also SFV had a horrendous start to begin with, meanwhile SF6 already sold 3 million units in 9 months
@@EijiShinjo48 Akuma coming, a patch after cupcom cup, season 2 characters.
@@EijiShinjo48 Mk 1 sold 3 million in less than 2 months and that game is dying
@@berserker2.0And SF6 probably would’ve sold even less if T8 was out. Despite T8 being more difficult for newer players.
@@berserker2.0 Bro, use your brain please!
First - Mortal Kombat is the most famous fighting game ever in the entire World, alot of people knows MK and that's why the games sell alot.
Second - MK1 have alot of problems to begin with... game has a ton of problems and it's inferior to MK11
SF6 is a great game and it's far superior to SFV, and is the true successor of SF3 Third Strike.
SF6 popularity is low atm because we are 5 months of waiting for another DLC character since AKI release!
People use your brain!
Sometimes i think some of my fellow gamers like to start issues when there are really no issues
This video proves it.
Facts
True he’s just starting drama
No, it’s just this guy really. It seems to be his thing, being an instigative idiot.
Nah, this game is trash
It's not more in trouble than Mortal Kombat 1
Facts
What's wrong with mortal Kombat 1
It exists.
Mk1 sold tons more copies.
MK1 is gone.
It's sold 3 million copies and we're not even through year 1.
Street Fighter 5 last five years with two large scale package deals.
Relax.
Having a company share to the world how many copies it has is like these kids on here saying they "own Ferraris and lambos"
It's not true and quit believing everything you hear on the internet , im glad I'm not one of those statistics cause I'm not 7 years old and grew out of mk since mkx 😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@B_HarTzlol! Give me a break... you are not kid of 7 years old but yes a kid of 4 years old 🤦♂️
"Don't believe at everything you see and hearing on Internet", so a company for you is like a random person.... that's a wild Tarzan thinking
@@VitorCosta40 lnsults and emotional reactions aside (from both of you), they aren't wrong. Companies frequently pad their own numbers (if not outright Iie) to save face in order to attract more customers, and please their investors, advertisers, shareholders, and other business partners all the time. 'Wild Tarzan thinking' or not, this is commonly how the corporate world we live in actually works.
@@Hausbrauen Wow... finally an informed and measured aduIt response. I genuinely didn't expect to see this here, but it's refreshing. Thank you.
@@Hausbrauen That only might be true for companies like EA and Activision Blizzard, everything stinks inside of that companies so I won't be surprised
The lack of exitement over Edd should be attributed to the fact he was already a DLC character in the previous game.
Im only really excited for him because I want to try him out on my cac I'm not buying the character
Yeah, he wasn't really popular. Don't know why he would be picked
Yeah, not sure why Edd was chosen, Akuma on the other hand plenty of hype!
Not to mention they releasing him after T8, which I think is a bad idea
ED is a wasted slot and I don't think he's interesting as a character. Should just be deleted from capcoms database lol and Rashit 🤷♂
With Capcom Cup just around the corner, SF6 is doing just fine despite our frustrations.
yeah okay. you in the same boat of denial as mk 1 players.
@ChickenMcThiccken hahahaha that's like me saying, if you think that this game is in trouble, you are deluded!
@@ChickenMcThicckenit’s just stale, but at least it’s functional and fun. Can’t say the same for mk
It not like they'll cancel it. Of course pros are grinding it, theirs millions on the line.
@@ChickenMcThicckenseason 2 is gonna stir up the game.
Mk1 is in trouble. Nice baiting.
Sold the lifetime sales of sf6 (which is 3 million) in 3 weeks nah it’s fine
@@Tek195 mk12 is more of a game for casuals to enjoy and then the desync issue, paid fatalities, and other stuff is holding the game back a lot
@@Tek195 Nah, it’s woke.
@@xavierhouston4650that word lost all meaning. Everytging is woke now
@@xavierhouston4650 MK11 I would agree definitely had a few done things that was annoying,
MK1 no they righted that ship learnt their lesson for the time being lol.
One issue I have brought up though is how they’ve made three iconic characters Chinese. Sub-zero was always half Chinese half American now full Chinese
Scorpion (I know it’s a different scorpion) went for Japanese to Chinese
& the worst one Raiden who was always zero nationality but if anything he comes from Japanese mythology being made Chinese, makes zero sense. I don’t care about their nationalities just don’t like over thirty years of lore n history changed.
A “3 king pack” would get my $ Vega Balrog Sagat
*4, Bison needs to be in that list.
Companies are going to have to learn we don't want 4 characters and 2 stages as a year's content for almost the cost of a full game. Honestly killing it for me. Especially if since they get leaked early and are always not personally what I'd want.
yeah, i have a standard not to buy triple-a games at full price and usually wait for like 30% since i just know they likely won't have much content to make up for the money paid and chances are they're buggy to some extent because the code monkeys at the big company won't fix it.
This video exists because you didn't know the Ed trailer was released? I had no trouble seeing it or reactions to it on day one. It feels a little arrogant to say a game is in trouble because you missed a readily available trailer.
Specially one that everyone in the FGC was pretty excited for haha
Street fighter is killing it, nice clickbait
It might be the worst SF I've ever played. I've played most of them.
Apart from the absurd prices for costumes, Spy x Family controversy and Ed being DLC in the last game, Street Fighter 6 is doing fine unlike Mortal Kombat 1. The reason why it's not mention now because Tekken 8 has stepped up big time from Tekken 7.
Tekken 8 is obviously copying SF6. Which is actually smart.
they need to add some decent DLC Characters packs like....
Final Fight DLC pack - Haggar and Poison
Rival Schools DLC pack - Batsu and Tiffany
Darkstalkers DLC pack - Morrigan and Jon Talbain
and more Fighters like Rose , Alex , Elena , Fei Long , R.Mika and Karin
FF and RS, likely. DS, not happening. Would LOVE to see Tiffany in SF6.
Omg capcom have let me down. All I ever wanted is playable Haggar in Street Fighter game. To hell with that corny Avatar crap. I would love poison to come back dat would be cool asf. Hombre Batsu I love dat hard ass, Tiffany hell no. Maybe dat sword boss dude from rival school 2. F off to Morrigan dat bitch is in everything including my God dang cereal, Don't get me wrong she is cool. But just overused asf tbh. And I'm sick and tired of her. Even though I mailed her in marvel vs capcom games. Lilith has way more drip, and slept on. Jon Tobain now dat is pure drip. Rose would be great in sf6,Alex I'm kinda sick of him, give us Haggar over him any day. Elena just not interested in miss long legs and her cool silver or white hair. Fei Long is him. R.Mika she can stay her sexy ass in sf6. Please bring Karin back along with Laura, M.Bison, Nash, Balrog omg Sagat,Vega, Sean, Falke, Makoto and Dudley.
They better fix those character models faces first if that's going but capcom is more than likely not going to do it because they don't want to.
Just give us the parts to make them all.
I JUST NEED MY ROBO WAIFU SETH CAPCOM
I need my demons man. Akuma is taking way too long.
Agreed. After that we need that new batch.
Play Tekken 7. akuma is right there. I won't miss this idiotic character.

This commentary is gold example of coping

I have a dream.
I agree but this comment sounds like it's drowning from copium😂
@@user-uu3ld6so5wI've heard people like you say the same thing about SFV during it's launch period yet it's thrived for 7 years in the gaming community with it's only real threat being Dragonball FighterZ.
I'll take your criticism with a grain of salt. It's hilarious how quick you're wanting to claim a game to be dead whenever it comes across any level of adversity.
I feel that the problem also lies in the loooong content drought SF6 is experiencing. There has been no new characters or patches to change anything up for almost 4/5 months straight. That is an extremely long time in internet time.
Agreed
Agreed 100% they are moving extremely slow and it’s making the game stale
Acting like they don't do this with EVERY Street Fighter game. Dedicated SF players considered this normal. The average casual would never understand.
All I'm saying is give me back Sean, Laura, Maki and Adon!
Dat!!!! Bring back characters We care about! Sean will break the Internet I'm telling you!
Also DDark, Hokuto, Pullum and Skullomania!!!
I like SF6, and even played a good 60 hours online with it but im waiting for the characters I actually play to be added.
I have 127hrs and I'm currently playing World Tour.
Get ready for the next battle…
Game needs more Dudley.
Why on Earth did they choose Ed over Dudley as a DLC character is beyond me.
@@tonware no sf3 characters is a missed opportunity
@@tonware I made a similar comment on gamefaqs about Ed replacing Balrog and what I got was, "Ed plays nothing like Balrog [and by extension Dudley]" while it's true, they're all three boxers and I doubt all three would get in and in my opinion, Ed is the least intereof the 3.
@@amitypredator9385 You think Balrog is interesting? Please explain, I'm legitimately interested. I can't understand the appeal. Character-wise, there's nothing there except violence and greed. Gameplay-wise, all but 1 of his special moves was a dash punch.
@@Kanti852 Personality-wise, Balrog is kind of a one note wonder. In terms of moves once you get away from street fighter 2, he's a bit more interesting.I actually liked him in SF4 and the little bit that I played of 5
Dang it, I fell for the click bait😐.
I played SF6 on Tuesday morning and got ranked matches in no time that ran smooth, with a few of international players mixed in.
The Ed gameplay trailer trended on RUclips yesterday (#18 when I looked).
Of course I want new characters to drop quicker but SF6 is NOT in trouble.
i agree, i just came back from 3 months of not playing sf6, and the matches are all fast and smooth
tekken 8, after a week from launch, all i get are tekken gods who are smurfing, i get less and less newer players since you are mostly matched agains people who i think dedicated their life on the game
Capcom must also not understand how charity donations work.
For Capcom to shock me, they'd have to sneak in a DarkStalker character. But good luck with that.
How about a new Darkstalker. FFS. With all the over the top anime fighters and for them to sleep on the Vampire series...
Morrigan from Darkstalkers as a guest character for SF6, YES pls 🔥🙏
Or another Rival Schools character
@@gpturismo That's what I'm talking about.
@@InitialDL84 But which one? I would like to see Batsu get some love.
The main issue of SF6 is the lack of new content for a life service game. In probably over a year, the game only added 4 new DLC Characters to the roster with 3 of them already being characters from SF5, especially Rashid who was in the base roster. And also so far, 1 set of overpriced outfits you can’t buy in a bundle. That’s a *long* wait just fir characters you‘ve already had enough of in SF5. In Season 2, they *really* need to push the gas pedal for fans to catch interest again. I‘m talking adding fan favorites like Dudley or completely obscure characters like Eagle to the game, definitely increase the number of characters per season and add a new mechanic for vererans to have something to dig in again.
licensed items will be more expensive
The game is insanely awesome. My main is MArissa, Gold rank currently
I think another problem lays in the competitive scene. I think there needs to be more offline events next year to drive up the excitement. No one gives two squats about online events. I know its hard this day and age but I really think it would increase the excitement for the overall game.
The competitive scene exists but it's completely detached from the game. Besides the recent pick'em event, there has been NO in-game advertisement of World Warriors nor online qualifiers, which are done in a separate website. The early establishment of a meta makes online qualifiers besides the big regions less exciting to watch than they already are and there's little motivation to run tournaments if they aren't a qualifier. The views don't reflect that because they are botted but the static chat shows how little traction they actually get.
Sad to see clickbait is the only thing you do these days.
I think that once the Akuma teasers, trailers come out that SF 6 will pick steam back up
It's Ed. I love Aki. I can't wait for Akuma. Ed is just... boring. I hope with a fresh coat of paint for VI he feels good. He looks bland. Want Sagat, Sakura, Crimson Viper (or even Lucia) as a Terry type (shoot rip off Terry, name him Jerry, or Barry.) SF has so many classic characters they don't need to release to many "new" characters. Sodom and Birdie. Hugo. Ibuki. Balrog. Guy. Even bring in Akira and more Rival Schools characters. I really think they need to speed up the character releases. I would love 6 a year.
I believe the release rate of character is slowed down because of World Tour. They need to implement the new character inside of WT and create dialogues, etc that they didn't need to do in the past games. I'd love 6 a year as well, but I doubt it will happen because of the extra work they gave themselves by implementing every new characters to WT
I'd say the opposite for me. Akuma is possibly the most boring character to be hyped for. If anything, it's going to make online matches a lot more annoying. Give me new characters, characters that barely got the spotlight. Not some character they used to be free and treated like some premium Ryu
His trailer looks sick
we need SF3 characters in sf6. the fact we got none day 1 when this is the sequel to sf3 is a huge missed oppurtunity
3th strike design. Less color ish. Sf6 characters are unrealisticly too balloon. Their hands and foot scale doesnt even match their body
@@waynedwayne7077 that's true but doesn't change what I said in any shape or form.
I truly hate all the hyperbole that takes place in gaming. I swear if a game isn’t making Fortnite numbers for 5 years straight, the game in question is immediately in trouble ,if not “dead” 😒
No video on Mortal Kombat 1
Street Fighter 6 still has a great online competitive community. You’re trippin, I’m a casual gamer and I still play SF6 between my other games
This is the same pattern as every street fighter game since street fighter 2 turbo. It's only a matter of time before people start to consider it great again
I don't know man, last I check SF6 is average similar player count as tekken 8 on steam. While being released almost one year prior
I'm might consider playing if they bring in Q or some legacy Final Fight blood
Just needs more characters that's all.
Sick game love it
The biggest problem the new street fighter is suffering from is the fact that most Americans don't have any money in the bestest economy ever.
I suspect the rest of the world is having similar issues as well.
Yes this true and you better prepare for an economic crash bigger then ever because it's going to happen to America, as an empire America is fading.
Theres also the unresolved plot point from the previous game involving the character G. He was my favorite and I'm still hoping his story will be continued in a later update to VI.
Yeah they need to pick up the pace with these dlc characters. At this rate we wont see sagat balrog or bison for a decade
Shouldn't they have come with ANY mainline Street Fighter game in the first place?
You forgot about Vega.
And fei long and t hawk. They’re good guys though.
@@soul71000yeah my b
@@Woobuggy848oh man id love to see fei in this game. He would be so sick!
I think the thing that irked me the most about SF6 was the fight money and the grind you need to do to simply unlock new costumes and colors. You couldn't simply earn it through the online mode, you had to do the story mode which I and probably many people don't have an interest in completing. Who wants to grind out a million CPU fights for a costume?? Basically all there was to do was fight and learn the game but there wasn't really anything to spice things up unless you paid. Meanwhile Tekken 8 has a plethora of characters and customization for said characters out of the box along with a great story mode, along with replays, jukebox with all the music from the series. Don't get me wrong SF6 is a great game with a beautiful aesthetic, it just feels like everything that would give it longevity is behind a paywall.
Theres only one thing I disagree with and its about the story mode. Personally I dont mind fighting a bunch of CPU opponents at all. Plus you got minigames like Scrap Heap 1 and 2, Hado Pizza, Breaking the Boards, etc. The only thing I can agree in regards to story mode.... It is a grind to unlock the costumes. On top of that you need to be connected to the internet to unlock the 2nd costumes that way too or else youre a sitting duck. Its especially somewhat annoying when they already shown the 2nd costumes for all the fighters, so it felt like it should have been there in the beginning. And if they HAVE to be unlocked, at least let us have alternative ways other than paying, like complete arcade mode with a character to get their costume. And it wouldnt be too much either since you got an option to do 12 stages, or 5.
Tekken 8 great story mode? The most generous way to describe it is it's not a terrible Tekken movie. You learn so much about each character in SF6's world tour, but you still learn nothing about Jin in Tekken 8 other than generic Japanese protagonist.
Nothing wrong with a little mystery. We don't need to know every little detail about the characters.
Announcing all the DLC before the game even came out was their biggest mistake. Both the Aki and Ed trailers would have hit so much harder if it was the first we were hearing about them
I think at the end of capcom cup we will see something new other than Akuma reveal alone.
Hope they announce at least two new chars for next seasin and be it Sagat and a new comer.
id wager that the hype is is gonna spike once we reach the time for when Akuma joins the roster.
I don't play the game, and I knew Ed was coming. Because I've got a friend who does. I believe his exact words were "Yeah it's Ed. I don't know why."
Wait for DLC part 2. The buzz will return then.
until the they should take character creator mode > modify it so you can change only clothes and colors and > create character customization mode just like in Tekken series.
this way they still can monetize their Outfit 3 costumes they released as "premium clothes" and people who already purchased them won't feel scammed. And customization does make a game feel fresh and keep it interesting
SF 6 just revealed Ed. Capcom is very consistent and paced. The one big mis-step was when they overcharged for those TMNT costumes. With Capcom cup and pro-players liked Daigo on top, new characters every 5 months, SF 6 is going to be around for a while.
To be fair, in this day and age even the most viral things are easly forgotten 10 minutes later so, they would need a new A.K.I or Juri Han on every trailer and even that would get boring eventually so, in part SSF6 might just be facing the cruel nature of the internet.
So are we going to get a new DoA sequel soon?
I hope so, but what DOA has to do with all this?
@@ginox_0736 - They were talking about how the new Mortal Kombat and Tekken were just released in addition to SF6, so I hope that a new DoA will be next...
If they make a new DOA, I would hope costume wise they go more with DOA 5 than DOA 6.
@@registereduser - I honestly just want some canon LGBT characters in the mainline series instead of just the "Xtreme" spinoff titles, like how Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat each have a few now...
@@JohnnyProctor9 Your obsession with that trash has gotten so out of hand to the point it's becoming your main focus on games. That's the kind of terrible priorities that are killing games.
Everyone waiting for Akuma to land
Every SF fan that moved to another game finna come back
I know we didn't get gameplay footage of Ed, but I still can't wait for him to come out, I loved his gameplay in SFV and I'm loving Rashid in SF6
King of Fighters 15 shattered all expectations.
Wish they worked with arcsys to keep the 2D aesthetics.
i was just playing that game before i ate lunch. i love the 1 v 1 mode. i hate the 3 v 3. but yeah man, the gameplay is pretty fun and the addition of the "advanced strike" is dope af.
KoF absolutely shattered all expectations. Set the WR any% speed run of dead mainline fighting game
@@Chanse1989
kind of easy to shatter expectations, when you have absolutely none..
No fighting game is worth $70 when released because they just going keep on adding dlc and charge people for it. I been a street fighter fan since the early 90s and I did not purchase sf6 or the previous sf on release date. I just wait until the price drop.
Street Fighter 2 was and 3 and Street Fighter 4 and 5 and all iterations launched at $60 so like huh
@DANCERcow yes to be specific I did not purchase sf5 or sf6 or any of the sf game between sf5 and sf6 because of the over price on launch day. Sf5 did come out at $60, which was already overprice, and it was an unfinished product that was rushed out to be released. This was just the regular edition price we are talking about here and not even the bundle edition that was price over a hundred dollars. People didn't get what they paid for at those price but it's your money so do what you want with it.
Missed my point, so now I'll rebuke you with the idea that of what you say is true then Street Fighter 2 was also over priced! And 3rd strike and basically every iteration of Street Fighters 2, 3 and 4! Street Fighter 2 released for $75 which is roughly $165 in 2024 loland that game was bare bones compared to what we've got now!
I'm not too excited about Ed though, I think the return of Fei Long would be BRILLIANT, a few characters from the alpha series and one of the original bosses would be really good. Aki is a work of art and the most impressive new character from ANY fighting game as of recent.
It just needs a balance patch. Raw drive rush, everything being situational...maybe hurt boxes need to be changed
This game has already sold over 3 million copies. You are overreacting, the game also has more players than any other fighting game except Tekken 8 on Steam
Ech! MK1 is probably in more trouble than SF6
Street Fighter 6 is best played locally against friends, family members and tournament opponents. Playing online on Street Fighter 6 is pointless because Capcom wants you to create a Capcom ID account needed to play online on Street Fighter 6 and that doesn't make any sense.
Bro it takes 2 seconds to make it
@@kye4216 What happened was, before the full version of Street Fighter 6 came out, I downloaded and installed the demo version of Street Fighter 6 and I created a Capcom ID account by mistake on the demo version and I can't remember my Capcom ID name and my password. That's why I can't play online on the full version of Street Fighter 6. I'm not worried about Street Fighter 6, anyway. In my honest opinion, Capcom should have ended their Street Fighter series with Street Fighter 5. And if Capcom continues shoving Capcom ID and annoying QR codes down our throats (Including mine), then I have no choice but to retire from Capcom's online fighting games competely.
View count not withstanding, Ed isn’t some sort of a disaster. Right now gamers are emotionally invested in other topics- like hating on the new suicide squad game, wondering about the future if Xbox, growing concerns over losing games that they bought online, etc.
I actually like Ed's design in 6. Ed in 5 looks like a normal fighter trying to be another dictator. But in 6 he gives Nero from Devil May Cry vibes a bit. I want interesting characters too, but also want variety in terms of how characters play. Would be nice to get at least 2 more grapplers like El Fuerte and Alex for example.
Also I still think SF6 is at least doing a bit better than DNF Dual.
They need to add guy and cody from final fight
The game taking place in Metro City makes the lack of Final Fight characters super weird.
I don't see Guy making an appearance since Kimberly is here. She's basically Guy 2.0. Give us Haggar instead.
@@bruce_leon1044 You know Hagger is just gonna be a skin for Zangief
Kimberly can kick rocks.
Ed gameplay trailer is ridiculously hype!!
P.S.: MK1 is already dead, so, I don't know why are you comparing it with sf6, hahaha
I do agree the fact we’ve known about the “DLC characters” for so long killed some of the hype. I think many of us assumed those were going to be in the base game. And we’d get get new faces as DLC lol
We need New Blood for Street Fighter, & just make a Large Roster from the Start.
They have new blood, the new characters. SF just isn't good at making new characters. Soon as they appear, they are gone/forgotten or DLC. they messed up offering so little in many ways and you have Tekken and KoF come with big rosters from the start. Capcom's greed and hubris.
@@blumiu2426 agreed
SF3: New Generation would like to have a word with you when it comes to including new blood.
@@XenOz3r0xT_88 What are you talking about ? if you ignore nostalgia bias, sf6 introduced a new generation better than sf3 did. Sf3 third strike is very highly regarded now, but third strike is the third update of sf3. These days people are hyped over the inclusion of the SF3 series cast, but back in the day they were mostly a bunch of randos that replaced a ton of classic characters and didn't resonate with a lot of casual SF fans of the older games. Alex failed as the new poster. There's is no 3rd strike characters are in the base roster yet all these street fighter 2 characters show up in sf6.
@@Jfray252 that’s third strike. NG was not received well and part of it was you could only pick Ryu and Ken as returning players. Yeah it did get better but you are referring to a game that had plenty of fixes. Second impact made changes that pleased the base and TS refined it further. But speaking it terms of NG, it did flop and the number of returning characters (lack of) did contribute to it.
As a Capcom fan and overall lover of fighting games since 1991, I gotta say T8 is piquing my interest more than SF6. Last Tekken I played was T3 when it released.
Dw cuz akuma coming soon 🙏
Hype fatigue is a thing, though. Sometimes the best thing you can do for a franchise is to give it a bit of a rest. The people who are enjoying it, are still playing, and the people who are interested in trying another thing, go off and try the other thing. I can think of multiple games I've come back to after trying something else, and falling in love with them all over again. When I've come back, I've realised how much better they do certain things and that's only because I've played other games. SF6 is not in trouble. It will stand the test of time. Capcom need to continue focusing on doing things right, and let the results come.
Great video. Honestly Akuma is the only character that could pull me back in and maybe someone else from SF 3rd strike.
WE NEED MORE NEXT GEN CHARACTERS. Makoto, Ibuki
Sean
Kimberly clearly took ibuki slot
Sakura 🙏
People complain about not having new characters, but the same people complain about why there are microtransactions in the first place. I personally think they should have stayed with the current roster and just do proper expansion like Street Fighter 2 to Super Street Fighter 2.
Is this the 90s? No, you pay for characters now. I agree people are sad to complain and then buy DLC, but SF6's roster was kept so small for a reason. Capcom is going to sell a bulk of them and it starts to make sense why the MTX on character outfits made them add DRM over mods. They'd make so much off of milking every bit they can.
Most people would say that is ass backwards. Personally I kinda like that transition better. I never mind going from Street Fighter 4 to Super to Ultra. Especially if they make the expansions cheaper instead full price. But I dont think Capcom is gonna do it that way sadly since they are aware more than ever now on how most feel about the Vanilla to Super to Hyper to Ultra etc.
Not the same. Vast majority of people dont mind paying for things that add to the game experience like characters. As long as the base game feels complete and it's reasonably priced.
I feel like a big chunk of it is a drop off from casual players
SF5 let you unlock dlc by playing. It encouraged regular grind from players who in turn took more of an interest whether a character was worth the grind and how best to optimize their experience as well. That investment translated into algorithm pushing SF content to users and feeding views.
It's a vicious cycle. Players aren't being hooked in, aren't watching videos, creators have less incentive to create and without that wider net of content to catch people there're fewer opportunities for people to be come invested customers.
I don't think Capcom have really understood how much creator hype combined with a more generous dlc model combined to help keep SFV relevant for so long. Coupled with how most news about monetization is largely negative they aren't giving people good reasons to cover the game further feeding interest elsewhere
if nothing got leaked, season 2 needs to not reveal their characters at the beginning
it creates more hype about who is gonna be the next dlc and the people will wait their favorite character for the rest of the year
for me is better to be revealed at the beginning like now, but for a company perspective is better in that way
Let’s think about that real quick:
Sf6 has:
- great world tour story (freaking innovative )
-classic arcade mode
- even if ppl now are ignoring that, we have Avatar battle, and with that customisation, they did gorgeous work to make them look natural when they use moves (we can talk about it for hours)
- battle hub, a great place that makes everything natural
- gorgeous mechanic, with drive mechanic you have crazy freedom
-a perfect balance in the initial roster
- modern commands to help new player out
- extreme mode
-Arcade classic, where you can play old classic (beautiful)
- […]
I am stopping; this message is already too long, anyway if this game is dying, then the world is going mad.
P.s:
I fell like I can play it forever
As someone who lost faith in MK, facts.
This ain't a good take man. Sure the Ed teaser wasn't super popular, but we got the Capcom Cup Finals coming up in like a week and a half. Capcom wasn't gonna reveal anything major until then, even with Tekken 8 dropping. It wouldn't have made sense. At the very least I think it might be better idea to judge the future of the game after that
Huh… weird… I’m not a SF player so I don’t know much. But I played Tekken, and I saw there were leaks and everything and such, but when the reveal trailer came out, I see a lot of people are also hyped about it too. Maybe because it’s still a new game, but I mean Reina got leaked LONG before her trailer came out and people already speculating that she’s Heihachi’s daughter and such, but it’s still grab people’s attention though… again, maybe because T8 was just released like a week ago and SF6’s already like half a year, but character trailers should bring hype, right? :”D
People are still hyping akuma since the first dlc pass been leaked, he's gonna change sf6 💯💯💯💯💯
A game isn't as big as it was when it released 8 months ago? Someone call the papers!
They should take character creator mode > modify it so you can change only clothes and colors and > create character customization mode just like in Tekken series.
this way they still can monetize their Outfit 3 costumes they released as "premium clothes" and people who already purchased them won't feel scammed. And customization does make a game feel fresh and keep it interesting
Street fighter has a lot less going for it especially since small roster and way easier to learn characters leads to a very dull loop compared to Tekken 8
Tekken gameplay is jsut basically who starts spamming juggle first wins
@@HaohmaruHL In Low Levels-Ranks only. But spamming in High Level is just a death setence...Cuz ur gonna get whiff punished haard
One problem with the game is Drive rush eating game inputs and some combos have too little scaling with some crazy over 60% life bars gone, makes for a lot of bullshit some characters can pull, makes playing very frustrating...
People here say that SF6 is in a great place - but it could be way better. What SF6 lacks is characters: there are only so few of them. The only reason I'm not playing SF6 right now is because there is only one character that I actually like playing. I'm a casual player and even with World Tour I feel left out - because I have little choice. I don't want to play characters that don't click with me and with such small roster, that has so many archetypes missing or in small supply, it's hard to get into SF6 for real.
Why is capcom so tame with its dlc when they literally have a GOLDMINE of characters and more they can use from THERE OWN IPS as dlc characters 😂😂😂 why
Mortal Kombat 1 has something to say.
Lol
Millions more in sales.😅
@@MKF30less people playing it 😪
Did not even hear the Edd trailer dropped to be fair...
3:01 Top Hat Gaming Man, didn’t know you had a cameo in this game.. Is that Earl Grey you’re drinking?
Tekken 8 earned it's Hype, because it don't need to be a Live Service Game, & you can buy Costumes offline.

Um... *there's nothing for Capcom to fix.*
Like you said, Capcom have gotten quiet on purpose. If you notice, Spring of this year (2024) is close from here, and Akuma [ (悪魔) Gouki, 豪鬼] has not yet been imported to the game as a character DLC. So quite like what they did with him for the first time with *Super Street Fighter 2* , Capcom are purposely leaving his release to the closest speculation until eventually it occurs at just the right date and time for *every fighter fan* to start a weekly talk; of course that's just my best guess, considering just how recognizable a character like him has become....
Sf6 is not in trouble at all. It’s just so happens that we have seen the biggest year for fighting games in history. Three of the biggest names in fighting games just released around the same time and are all being explored by fighting game fans. The steam is being shared right now, I wouldn’t be surprised if fans are a bit overwhelmed right now with all the big fighting games. Although, it seems like fighting game fans are getting very disappointed with mk1.
I forgot about sf. Tekken is hot rn but it just dropped. Be curious to see how Tekken8 sf6 and mk1 stacks up to each other in a few months
I think capcom should take the Tekken 7 route..include a guest a character that's actually integrated/essential to the story, the no brainer choice would be SNK's Geese Howard, Street Fighter and Fatal Fury practically existed side by side since the fighting game boom. this would attract KOF fans and probably some Tekken fans as he was well received in there too.
Respectfully disagree. SF has so many characters people want. Guest characters scream desperation and cash grabs. They need to just give the game more content.
@@shanedavison6371 while it is true that Capcom have a treasure trove of fighting game characters waiting to be used (rival schools for one being criminally under utilised), all of those appeal to folks who are already a fan and probably 30-40 years old and old. What Tekken, smash bros and MK did was lure in casuals, since SF6 already have modern and dynamic controls specifically targeting those demographics it only makes sense to go all in with the game plan, I am aware how elitist Street Fighter fans are, but financially speaking casual players is where the money at.
And lastly…. All the tekken fans HATED akuma.
@@shanedavison6371 didn't stop pro players from picking him until when they nerfed him to the ground lol. At the end of the day a well thought off guest character will more likely attract new players. I think KOF became more mainstream in the North America because of their collaboration with Capcom. So I guess it wouldn't hurt. I don't know, just thinking about the big picture, I guess.
@@RonSanPedro83 akuma is definitely still the best character in the game. Every time they “nerfed” him, they inadvertently buffed him. He breaks the game. And the pro scene picked him because it was a free “W” not because they liked him. He was also too technical for casuals to get work out of him. Those players picked negan.
Yoshinori Ono was taken out of the equation and this is what happens.
Ikr
Cosmetic call out was spot on. It’s been a year and a SINGLE new costume for fighters priced at $5.
Battle passes and avatar cosmetics have absolutely zero value given we’re playing the actual game vs standing around in an empty “battle hub”
GodHand tem referencias in world tour. Eu espero Gene como DLC. Entre outros crossovers usando personagens de outras franquias diferentes alem do universo de SF e quando digo isto me refiro ao Final Fight, Rival Schools etc. Talvez alguns dos personagens do beat and up Alien vs predador, Tekken, Tatsunoko etc. Novas mecanicas tambem requentam a comunidade.
Game is doing fantastic. Better than SFV. Tekken gets buzz because it's new but then everything centers again at SF. SF is always the center of attention in big tournament events. It's always the main game.
Fighting games have been dumbed down for the casual press one button crowd.
Yeah it started with Tatsunoku vs capcom
this is my gripe, its making people think they can run when they actually can barely crawl. i've lost to things in sf6 i would have NEVER lost to .
No, this "press one button" easy controls have been around since the first Marvel vs Capcom!
Limey, the game has sold over a 2 million copies. If you dont the extras, dont buy them.
Are they ever going to make Ultra Street Fighter 5 (complete edition like how they did SF4)???
Love your videos , but lol , do you have to refer to yourself as “big daddy top hat?? “🎩 😅🤣
Live the gimmick.
LOL! I'm guessing it's got something to do with insecurity (like, maybe he's actually the opposite in real life?) 😂
An Establish IP like Street Fighter should start with 35 characters.
system and individual character mechanics will suffer with a larger roster
One thing that always gets me is as to why that hair cut Ed has to be the standard for the video game industry it like there is not much originality
well, Akuma is coming...
This is pure clickbate. The game is doing just fine on Steam and the only other fighting game with more hype right now is Tekken 8
