And? OP said "back when Capcom made good games" and this is a Capcom game. If instead of CvS it was Capcom vs MK, or Capcom vs War Gods, or whatever, it still would've been a good game. SNK has nothing to do with what OP said. (personally I like SFV just fine in terms of gameplay but that's another matter)
You think this game would be possible without the permission of SNK? Okay... Team battle concept was originalize by SNK and it is very apparent in this gameplay as it is also close as you are playing KOF than MvC or Street Fighter. The thing is both companies made it possible. SvC sucked because the company was on the verge of bankruptcy and trying to hang on a needle.
I've never faced CVS2 Shin Akuma due to the horror stories people have with God Rugal. Compared to either of the two's earlier appearances, CVS2 is a fair challenge.
Yeah, because Omega Rugal fucked shit up EVERY TIME he was in a KOF Dream Match and each time, he's stronger than before. 2002UM was DESPICABLE. That uncharged Kaiser Wave deal SHITTON of damage with a 0 frame startup that travel RIDICULOUSLY FAST!!!! And then, you got the bunch of NEST saga bosses. NOT VERY PLEASANT!!!!
I mean cvs, all SNK characters were low tier bar Iori and Hao who were barely mid tier. The kof cast have a lot shit striped away from them so the SF characters are on the same wavelength. This fundamental problem is why SNK fans generally don't want another cvs.
It took me 35 tries to beat God Rugal on the HARDEST DIFFICULTY!!! He's that hard. If it weren't for Maximilian Dood, I would've given up big time so thanks Max!
im trying to imagine what rugal's mindset would be in this state: I am no longer bound by human emotions, desires, feelings, i feel nothing less than evil within me. I have no remorse as i have transcended my own humanity and now, none is safe around me.
As an SNK fan, Omega Rugal was a TRUE TERROR. Remember the Kaiser Wave in this game? Omega Rugal can fire 2 version, uncharged and charged. Both did the same damage but the uncharged version had ZERO FRAME STARTUP and travel FAST AS FUCK while the charged version is unblockable. Back in KOF 2002UM, all of the NEST final Boss message before the battle was Good Luck. Omega Rugal is "Do the best you can." = "YOU ARE FUCKED"
I used to play this game with a friend who had a DreamCast. We always faced Akuma at the end, and, with time, we got better and achieve higher scores. When we faced God Rugal for the first time, we are destroyed without mercy! This a true SNK Boss!

@@joshualowe959 I bet it was meant to be easier that way for Capcom to remix Akuma's theme for the new take on Shin Akuma in Capcom vs. SNK 2 due to hi having the powers of both the Satsui no Hado and Orochi too.
@@joshualowe959 Safe bet? Capcom couldn't get the music rights from SNK, so they had to do what they could with their own music team since they developed the CVS franchise.
Sean Balogun Censorship. I think if CvS3 was made and Rugal was back, they'd have no problem saying "Genocide Cutter" or naming his powered up form God Rugal. Only reason the PS3 download of this game is still censored is because it's a rom and not a remake.
