Is this game worth 16 dollars on pc?

it looks fun as shit and Evo was hype as fuck, then when I went to the store page it's bombarded with negative reviews and low players, so Im conflicted.
>>
>>386100076
You'll play it for a week and never touch it again. Your call.

EVO can make any shit game look good and this is no exception.

It's a shit game. If you like playing shit games, then go for it.
>>
>>386100076
No

>>386100076
Absolutely.
Game also has crossplay with the PS4 so it will never really lack players.
No other dev seems to care about that though, they'd rather let their games die.

It isnt an awful game compared to alot of its competition. Tekken is also very good but Tekken as a whole just isnt as interesting long term imo.

is it being casual really a bad thing though? is Mario 3d world and kirby shit for being casual? I think what matters is the overall fun factor right?
>>
>>386101607
>is Mario 3d world and kirby shit for being casual?
Bad comparison. You're comparing a fighting which is supposed to be played for hours on end to singles player games that are supposed to be played and beaten once. Like I said, you'll have your "fun" with the game the first week, then you'll get bored of it. For that reason, yes, a casual fighting game is bad.

I like the game and still play it, but the season pass bullshit and how they launched the game in an incredibly under developed state but charged full price was criminal.

For characters that have been developed way past release, just like in any other fucking game.
Or you just unlock them with ingame cash, which you absolutely cannot do in other games.

The actual things they DID promise were all added for free though.

has 2 story modes, robust online features, continually getting new FREE content , and STILL only costs like 12 dollars

compare that with injustice, 60 dollars plus 60 dollar season pass, plus microtransaction loot system, and skins all costing real money, to top it off, most players dont even play online, they play through singleplayer campaign then never touch it again

sure, as long you're paid these 16 bucks to play it

>>386100076
Negative reviews was because of the horrible launch. The game had a small rooster, non functional multiplayer and poor singleplayer content with the cost of 60$

Now the game has 26 characters (it had 16 at launch) and they keep adding characters every other month.
Before they only had individual character tory modes wich where super short, Survival mode and Trials but they added more single player content since them. They added Story mode and Trials Vol 2. There is rumors that they are adding Arcade Mode, Story Mode chapter 2 but dont buy expecting that.
You dont have to worry about low players online because the game has crossplay with PSN players. The netcode is very inconsistent though, you gotta always search for 5 bars and even with 5 bars you get some laggy matches.

I think that for 16$ with all the content that they added its not a bad deal.

microtransaction loot system isnt really fair to say. you cant buy loot boxes with source crystal or real money only credits which are all earned in game. ive got nearly 7million. you can also buy those premier skins with crystals which are also earnable ingame albeit at a much slower rate. im sitting at 16,500 or around this. ill give you the season pass/ deluxe/ult edition. i dont like that so i just stuck with standard.

i have both sf5 and ij2 and i love them both for different reasons.

Stop being such a shameless shill. "Tons" of online features doesn't matter if your netcode is complete garbage. The story mode was added way later into the game's lifespan and even that can't compare to what Injustice or Guilty Gear offers in term of quality of story mode. The game's $16 for a reason, shillbro.
>>
It's a decent game. Maybe not mechanically as deep as I'd like but since you seem to be new to the genre, I could see you enjoying it. Truthfully speaking, on PC your choices are either this, Tekken 7 or playing old games on Fightcade. Animefighters are pretty much dead right now.

Netcode is fine, and the game is 16$ because its two fucking years old by now.

Too much empphasis on pokes and normals means the game is largely just baiting your opponent. Also, your view of the game will drastically change based on who you're playing as. Overall, it's probably the most okemi reliant game on the market now, which is a good and a bad thing.

I think on PC SFV and Tekken have as high a player count as you ever gonna get for a fighting game.
I bought SFV on release and refunded when I saw how barebones it was and how shitty online play is.
Now I'm just playing Tekken 7 which suits me better anyway, but if your a fighting noob you gonna have a hard time with that.
There is no tutorial whatsoever in Tekken.

>There is no tutorial whatsoever in Tekken.
There is also no Vs CPU mode. Arcade mode is just 3 fights and then 2 bosses with no endings, like they only put it there to tick a checkbox. Lobbies don't have a rematch option. No crossplay. Unlike SFV, you have to pay for DLC characters with real money. But it's ok when Harada does it.
>>
>>386106186
Its absolute bullshit how SFV got such bad scores but Tekken gets these amazing ones even though it does many of the mistakes SFV did and more.

People are retarded and cant think for themselves.
>>
>>386106893
You can say tekken is fine because it has better gameplay but it still isnt fair either because tekken never tryed to reinvent itself, street fighter does that with every iteration. Tekken had 20 years to get the tekken gameplay right while SFVs gameplay still has to go through some polishin like every othe street fighter game.
>>
>>386107732
>You can say tekken is fine because it has better gameplay
I call bullshit on that too but thats extremely subjective.

And yes Tekken 7 is literally Tekken5 sold again with tacked on comeback ultras and armor moves.
Personally I'm fucking sick of buying the same game over and over and this is the last time I'll bother with a Tekken game until Harada gets out of his ass to actually make a real sequel.


Just talking about products getting released though both SFV and Tekken were/are unfinished. With SFV its clear that they rushed it out for the CPT, but what about Tekken7 and its years of delays? Only thing the game can boast about is characters, but thats no great feat when most of the animations and custom items are recycled.
>>
>>386100076
It's wayyyyy overpriced and has too many flaws.

To get all the content takes thousands of hours or paying for the game 2-3 times over the original price.

How is 16 overpriced for a fighting game with an online community that isnt dead?

Even with the gameplay, common complaints about SFV are "no zoning" and "characters are too similar". Both of those are also true of Tekken.

You don't get all the characters and the bundles are shit.

SFV and T7 are both shit.

Tekken7 is a fucking three year old game.

You're buying the late port when the original game had like ten characters.

If you're willing to spend the whole 60$ you get as many characters in SFV, and those arent all fucking clones like in Tekken.
>>
>>386110106
>>386110105
I'd honestly be fine waiting a few years (like I did) for a game that comes complete in the sense that all modes are working and it as a huge cast than to pay $60 for SFV (which I did and regret).

I think both games are fun, but SFV just gets old fast.

All Tekken characters play the same.
You dont have anybody like Dhalsim or Birdie in the roster. Its all the same crap. Nobody is allowed to play differently.

And waiting fucking sucks, you wont be able to keep up with the character matchups and everybody will progress past you.
With SFV specifically its also really fucking easy to keep up with character DLC releases by just fucking playing the game.

Also
>Tekken

>>386110291
Well, nothing is stopping you from waiting 3 years with SFV. If you buy it next year it will be better than if you bought on launch, except you had the option of buying it at launch instead of just watching Asians play on arcades for years.

>>386110403
>All Tekken characters play the same.
Now this is a huge exaggeration and I'm the one who first said that characters are too similar in this thread. A lot of characters play the same, some like Yoshi, Eliza, Steve or Jack play different enough.

Unfortunately fighting games don't follow good business models like something like Dota 2 for example. So in most of them you have to buy DLC characters, and in Guilty Gear's case you have to buy every new version of the game and then buy characters on top of that. Street Fighter allows you to grind then, so it's the lesser evil of the genre.

All tekken characters are the same archetype. No zoners, not even real grapples because you can just tech command throws. Everybody has the same gameplan.

Characters that use verticality like sim or adon don't exist either.
>>
>>386100076

Anon, there's plenty of depth to warrant $16 if you get into ranked matches. Learning the setups, tricks and subtleties of your favorite character along with all the match ups to come. Adjusting to your human opponents who will never stop surprising you.

If you don't want to devote and want a casual single player experience, it barely makes the cut for $16 bucks, the cinematic story mode is meh.

If your a casual who can only handle shooting games and mobas, spread your asshole open and get prepared to be fucked hard by everyone.

Why?
>>
>>386110962
While I agree with that, I would've been fine with either grinding out characters with in game $$$ or using real $ if the game actually had a lot of interesting characters to begin with. Such a small cast that forgoes some of even the most basic and arguable essential characters (Guile, Akuma) feels like they're just holding out on things that make the game feel complete. Hell, SFIV had lots of variation with characters. I get that SFV is in its early phase, but still, cmon, being jewed out for characters and stages feels personal. If the product was good to begin with it wouldnt have been so bad.

>>386110904
You're completely missing the point apparently so I guess I'll just stop arguing with you.

>>386111274
Go play Eddie, Hwoarang, Steve, the fucking BEAR, Eliza, and a huge handful of others before saying they play the same.

I've played lots of SF and so far a decent amount of Tekken and I can say with certainty that Tekken characters arent all the same.

If you want to talk "same gameplan", lets take a look at how the entire gameplan for every single character in SFV is just fishing for CCs because true whiff punishing is almost non-existent.

While I agree that Tekken is a more "realistic" fighter in the sense that its mostly just punches and kicks, you have TONS of moves to choose from and incredibly diverse combos. The only character in SFV that can even be creative is Akuma, and he plays even better in... That's right, Tekken.

Many players who have played multiple fighting games competitively, even many current SFV pro gamers, disagree. You're welcome to enjoy the game though. I personally don't think the game is rewarding enough compared to other current FGs to play without monetary incentive.

I've heard that a lot before, I've even had someone say that it's absurd to launch an SF game without Guile so this isn't even necessarily directed at you, just a rant, but look:
Street Fighter games with Guile before V:
SF2
Console version of Alpha 3
SFIV

Street Fighter games without Guile:
Alpha
Alpha 2
Alpha 3
SF3

He is nowhere near essential, especially when you already have Nash in the base cast.

And now that I think about it, Akuma has never been in the base cast on launch either. Secret boss in SF2 Super Turbo, the last iteration of SF2. Secret boss in Alpha 1, added to the base cast only on Alpha 2 and 3. Secret boss in SF3 2nd Impact, added as a regular member of the cast only on 3rd Strike. Secret boss in SFIV on the first iteration, and now DLC in SFV. He always comes later in the game's life.
>>
>>386112572
Juggling is vital for 3d fighting games but in other games it's HRHR and animated accordingly with huge sword swings or massive uppercuts. In Tekken they're bread and butter and come out of punches that would be a neutral MP in SF. It looks stupid and is an artifact from the early era of polygon fighters.

Tekken doesn't desserve the ridiculous ammount of love it gets from Bamco.
