    More than just one of the best KOF titles, this one has special meaning. I can see how the staff members truly believed in the project. You can see this is a game made with heart. From the, what I call "the longest trailer in gaming history" (after all, it was a whole year teasing us with the characters trailers) to the beautiful end credits theme. And how they balance the game with updates, to the point of showing us the changes, show us how much love they are still putting in make KOFXV worthy the title of "the best KOF ever made! And, until this release, KOF'98 was my favorite, of all the entire series. It was truly hard to De-throne it. But they just nailed it. Personally, KOFXV is the number 1, even using my own nostalgia against me!

    wow!!! great job!!! I love that you include the opinion of professional players and other fans~ so nice to see the community being represented! it makes me happy. I'm biased because I've been a fan of KOF since the year 2001 so I see the game with nostalgia goggles, HOWEVER, I genuinely think KOFXV is such a great game! The character design is gorgeous and the gameplay is super fun! I also think is very accessible for new fans who want to try a FG for the first time.

    Great documentary \O Kof XV for me, became one of the best Kof games: soundtrack, gameplay, care for the characters and their details. They need to refine certain points in a sequel, but currently, they're doing a great job. What I hope they still bring in this XV, are some characters from XIV like: Mian, Hein, Zaria. It's also about time to bring in the Maximum Impact roster and new stages.

    Great work on the documentary and thank you for making it for us. Truly appreciate it. KOF XV has become my favorite Fighting Game of All-Time. I still do have a few minor issues with it. Like wishing we had more Stages & the ability to turn the Auto Combo off. What I would want them to add to the DJ Station is just do an On & Off Mode. Just pick everything you would want to play randomly for each match. Even picking 30 tracks is still too small. They just have too many God Level Tracks in their Catalog that I want to hear when I play. Anyway, thank you for your contribution.

    I always liked the early KoF games in the arcade but always saw them as inferior Street Fighter clones so never got truly into them. I tried when KoF Xiii came out but the game felt way too complicated so I bounced off it. I bought this a few month ago to get me through to SF Vi since I am Xbox player and not had access to 5 and have to say I love the game for the first time. Not sure why but for some reason it just clicks with me. I am staff early days regarding learning but I keep coming back unlike in previous entries. Really enjoy B Jenet, Rugal Omega and King I'd Dinosaurs play style.

    Great video man. I can't believe SNK took 6 months to come up with the story. Covid really pushed them back. It makes you wonder how what cut content there is from that?( I am glad they at least made the KOF a new beginning manga).This is probably why they are so busy with the new Fatal Fury game.
    They want it to be a bigger hit.

    Honestly I dropped KOF on the XIV Beta, it felt SO WRONG I was utmost disappointed, I was already splitting my time between Mortal Kombat and Guilty Gear so when I tried the Beta I moved away and never again wanted to see anything KOF related... it was a dead franchise to me, a mix of leaving the 2D sprites behind and how bad it looked and felt playing it simply made me hate SNK for what they did to my beloved game.
    Then when KOF XV was announced I didn't care at first but a friend made me check it and the trailers were interesting, so with my doubts I started falling for it, I mean how could I not? All my loved characters I've been playing for more than 2 decades were back in a game looking promising and decent with the new graphics and gameplay... I am glad they delivered an awesome game, I've been playing it on Xbox and PC since release and gathering with friends almost every weekend to play for hours our matches, but sadly the matchmaking is kind of bad for some of us and seems to be going to get a fix with the crossplay.

    Good video Nabil. I will say that SNK has disappointed some of the fans with KOF 14, Samurai Shodown, & KOF 15 in certain aspects. All three of those games lack a good amount of stages, the dlc release is questionable for those games, and the lack of alternate costumes in these games as well. I really hope that SNK fully delivers for the new Garou and doesn't half step in some aspects. This coming from someone who really enjoys the three games I mentioned especially Samsho. Also, still waiting for the rollback update to be finalized.
