Are Fighting games dying?

As a fighting game player, I hope so

Fuck this casualizing, esports cuck modern garbage that's trying to plague the scene

They're boring as shit. Seems like a conjob to sell them at full retail price when their just tech demos of a single screen.

wew king of fighters is really shit

They require some sort of time/skill to enjoy and the current market wants brain dead movies or instant results that make them feel good.

because action adventures are superior

not casual friendly

Much like JRPGs, the genre isn't dead. They've just left the dry wasteland that is the Playstation demographic behind.

Those numbers don't seem accurate.

The leader of fighting games is having a crisis of dumbing down their games while trying to keep their dedicated veterans. Along with making games as cheaply as possible, either from lack of talent or to maximize profits.

the only ones who are truly dead are virtua fighter, bloody roar and soul calibur

most people don't want to spend 20 hours in practice mode to get decent at a game. also fighting games are still stuck in 2d/2.5d.

People do the same shit with garbage like league and overwatch, they just have buttons that make the screen flash or kill someone instantly so the play feels good about themselves.

I don't like fighting games
