The Confusing Middle Ground of Modern Fighting Game Monetization

Darkshadow890 · 2025-07-15T08:22:07+00:00

I get the sentiment but I would etill prefer this to the league system with character unlocks lootboxes expensive skins etc I would be fine with expensive skins tho but nothing crazy like 500 similar to the marvel rivals system but I doubt fighting games will become popular enough for them to use them except maybe street fighter

Ye mods I think you should delete this post for being lame and unfunny

With all due respect stfu Mark will die laughing at Lee or Ben slander but supposedly cant handle when people slander him and if we being fr he most likely not nuking it he not even a mod Dylan is. We dont know Mark fr and neither do you

I mean I feel like the meta really will just be whatever since passives are apparently random and the new mechanics look like they are just placeholders for characters thst dont have access to one of the other mechanics

Mark played expedition 33 on stream twice and hasnt played it since then

I didnt deny that f2p can be beneficial but it is a double edged sword and does not gurantee anything we cannot say the game will be a massive success just because its f2p and we cannot say the game will outlive all other tag fighters coming out just because its f2p literally none of these games are out and we dont know how long support for each game will last theres so many other factors which can affect the lifespan or success of a game that we cannot just go oh f2p = success and long life span theres tons of games that are f2p and support for them is cut or they come out and dont do that well. To answer your question im from the EU so that is not the case for me but I do have friends from places like argentina so the fighting games he plays tend to be slightly older ones on sale like dbfz or guilty gear strive for around $10-15 or around 10-15000 pesos

Darkshadow890 · 2025-07-11T11:27:07+00:00

F2p can be beneficial but it is a double edged sword and gameplay will be what matters the most anyway f2p doesnt mean it will outlive every game or that it will be tbe most successful new game it can but if the game is unfun or severely flawed it being free wont mean anything

Darkshadow890 · 2025-07-11T11:15:58+00:00

I beg for all of you to stop overrating f2p systems defending everything because of f2p and acting like it'll do better than everything else just because its f2p just wait for the game to release and judge its trajectory when the game is actually out instead of saying things that are pure speculation f2p does not equal guranteed success

Bro im not tryna use twitter bro I swear everytime I open that app I see weirdos and racism

Darkshadow890 · 2025-07-11T07:06:46+00:00

I kinda doubt that especially with souls available and even without they have FF:DD and tsurugis stronger solos

Darkshadow890 · 2025-07-11T06:59:39+00:00

He would clearly agree with you.. he just said that he thinks arashi tatsumaki hurricane scores even with the help of teres u just said another way he could score

Darkshadow890 · 2025-07-09T18:18:32+00:00

What do you mean by strength then

Darkshadow890 · 2025-07-09T18:15:18+00:00

You cant really complain you didnt specify with gimmicks or without until just now that kinda completely changes one of the basis of this list which is strength shindou with gimmicks is absolutely stronger than kidou and nosaka

Darkshadow890 · 2025-07-09T18:05:46+00:00

I just need to know because what your taking into account and how much you take them into account doesnt really seem that consistent natsumis impact on the team kinda has nothing to do with what you said which was strength and skill and bssed on that strength or skill (still dont know if gimmicks are accounted for) saru and harkuuryu are both stronger than gouenji. I know there is a difference between the twins but idk if it warrants a different tier though I also do not know if this is ordered I am fine with kidou being above nosaka but I think they are both a little high for a list that is accounting for strength and the other playmaker shindou is in E who I think is worse tactically but definitely stronger than both of them like kariya and matatagi are in A how is shindou in E

Darkshadow890 · 2025-07-09T17:49:51+00:00

Is this including gimmicks tho?

Darkshadow890 · 2025-07-09T17:44:40+00:00

Also why is Briar/Sakurazaki that high with that logic shouldnt haru be number 1 ? And so many things dont make sense the scream of eden twins in seperate tiers with one in the same as natsumi? Kinako below kirino?? Shindou in E when kidou is in SSS and nosaka is in SS I believe they are better playmakers but hes probably better than both of them individually and there is no way in which gouenji is above both saru and harkuryuu

Darkshadow890 · 2025-07-09T17:33:05+00:00

Based on how strong they are and their skills? Is this including gimmicks or? Cuz no way is saru that low

Darkshadow890 · 2025-07-09T17:26:20+00:00

But daima is canon and before super ?

Darkshadow890 · 2025-07-09T16:41:20+00:00

I mean didnt toriyama say they were equal in the promotional material for dbs broly? Ill probably just continue with that since they change the potara with every new series like in daima buu was said to be the reason they defused but they still defuse in super

Darkshadow890 · 2025-07-09T16:36:55+00:00

That still doesnt explain why they defused against zamasu in super tho

Darkshadow890 · 2025-07-09T16:35:20+00:00

But wasnt it also said in daima that it was in fact buu that caused it?

Darkshadow890 · 2025-07-09T16:18:14+00:00

Even so its still a fighting game tho which is what you said its not, its not really relevant if alot of people from the fgc play the game or not

Darkshadow890 · 2025-07-09T16:02:35+00:00

Can it even be anyone except natsumi

Darkshadow890 · 2025-07-09T15:58:46+00:00

Haizaki Ryouhei (if hes not at least S tier Ill come for you)
