>The overall impression I get from this game: every competition, every match, tends to finish in the same style
It's like this since Street Fighter IV
Last good street fighter game was Alpha 3

>Alpha 3

Huh, this is my first time seeing someone say this. Usually it's "3rd Strike is the last good SF".

>>385796393
Not that anon, Street Fighter 3's popularity was practically posthumous. It was hated more than any other SF (if we had the kind of well connected internet message boards of today, back then, the shitposting and dislike of SF3 would be unrivaled), even up to Third Strike, where it only then got a following because they brought back Ryu, Ken, Chun-Li... and the game was still lame and not that dynamic outside of the pretty animations.
Parrying was a risk/reward feature, so its use was inconsistent which gave it some hype, dynamic matches, but the fights were still typically as routine as those of SFV. Not to mention SF3 was by far the least balanced of the lot, with only very few characters appearing again and again at tournament finals.

Alpha 3 however was extremely varied, had a lot of content, characters, and the three ISM selections made for very unique styles of play with the same character. I'm not too familiar with the popular characters or balance of Alpha, but just from the roster size alone, it likely had a lot more viable top tier picks than SF3 (and probably a bunch of shit tiers standing alongside the deliberately shitty Dan) as well as capable mid tier picks who could actually have a presence were they to appear in tournaments.

I'm with that anon, Alpha 3 was a lot more fun than SF3 or SF4. If SFV were to take a few pointers in becoming more dynamic, I'd want it to pick from Alpha.

As long as your character had a vism infinite they were viable

You can't /thread yourself faggot. Jesus when will the underages leave?

>>385796393
the street fighter 3 is good is a /v/ meme
no one ever liked street fighter 3rd strike when it came out

>Funny how the opinion of a washed up legend really differs than based Tokido
The only reason Tokido says good things is because his scrub ass is winning in this terrible game. He's like the current DSP when DSP won that terrible SF tournament on that broken game and claimed to be god-like.

>>385797378
because I know SFV shills will arrive shortly so this thread is useless
Again:
Alpha 3 last good SF game.

>>385797530
He's been saying he likes SFV BEFORE he won EVO.

>>385797738

Is it because he doesn't like depth? Has he explained why he would prefer V over 4? Or other fighters like Guilty?

>>385796315
>It's like this since Street Fighter IV
Not quite. A lot of characters in 4 had an offensive and defensive playstyle. Not to mention a few players made a name for themselves by bringing a new "style" to the tournament scene.
