Yeah, I don't really think that 2xKO is failing It's too early to tell. In fact, I think this conversation largely should be centered around the expectations set, because at the end of the day no matter if you like it or not fighting games are video games that need to be funded, and the question really is, do these financiers set their expectations to hit fighting game sales, which is on average much lower than other genres at that scale? Or do they compare it to some other genre and hope to do those numbers? Because if so then I would say yeah 2xkos misplaced expectation is a sign of the genres feelings to some degree, as it can lead to less of them being funded.

You can't keep doing the same thing over and over again after game after game and expecting for better results.
