>actually playing anime fighters

>>379319956
Better? I can understand why you would like them more, but they are not better.

>better games like Guilty Gear, Blazblue, and Melty Blood
Firstly, you're retarded for blanket assuming these games are better just because you don't play the games you're putting down.

Secondly
>blazblue
lol

Thirdly, you don't even play Melty you fucking poser.

Because you can say your good at street fighter without actually learning to play. Same reward for less work.

Same reason why normies flocked to sc2. They wanted to be a hardcore dorito gamer, then they got bored and left.

Never understand this, i grew up with Alpha first so maybe i have it akewed, but SF always looked like cartoon anime to me? It kind of highlighta what OP is talking about:
>nope! It doesn't count! Its too popular to be anime weeb shit!
Maybe not quite "weeb" whatever the fuck that means these days, but its like how some of us in the west treat games like dark souls "i really like it, so i pretend the japanese didnt make it so i dont feel ashamed"

Odd.

Because you can see what is happening instead of the convoluted nightmarish anime effects that occupy 90% of the screen in those anime games that makes you pay full for patches.
