Yeah, it seems the developers are really banking on gaining that audience which are big fans of fighting games but haven’t played this in the past 11 years because they were just so put off by armbands and panty shots. Yet also feel that removing the arm bands and panty shots is totally unimportant and anybody who complains about it doesn’t matter.
How can something simultaneously be a dealbreaker AND unimportant?
They're trying to piggyback off the woke GG Strive audience. That's all there is. Strive is full of shit pandering to the alphabet mafia degenerates with all kinds of dumb design decisions, and from a gameplay standpoint it is one of the WORST versions of GG since Slash and GGX.
Well, let's not pretend GG2 Overture didn't happen. But yeah, the removal of mention of Taiwan via patch assured I'd never buy another game from Arc System Works ever again. Not just GG titles.
The devs are doing this because they literally can't do anything else. Only MikeZ had the autistic knowledge of his own game and its mechanics to keep expanding it, without him they got nothing
Or at least GME, like I recently did, hoping others are right about the Mother of All Short-Squeezes. And I have physical proof of my ownership less than three feet away from me as I type this.
The fact that it doesn't exist as a physical object is exactly how the feds can be prevented from seizing it. Gold's nice, yes - definite hard cash alternative - but what can you do when the Internal Expropriation Service tracks your purchases, then decides to do a little civil forfeiture because they needed to buy some more crack?
PS: You know what else doesn't exist? Gold in fort knox.
Jesus christ dude, you've got to know something about crypto. Don't just buy in to the shit that news talks about, including right wing news run by boomers.
There's such a thing called cold storage for crypto. I don't know why, but retards think you need to have your crypto held in digital online wallets owned by other companies (like banks are now).
That is not the case, in fact the original concept of bitcoin involved using COLD STORAGE. i.e. you store the fucking wallet to physical media. Hard drives, micro SD cards, flash drives, SSDs, etc. you can literally hold the fucking physical media and just like any other physical media, YOU CAN MAKE BACKUPS of it. So even if one of those media dies you have backups to use.
Then just like gold, you can store it in a safe place away from your home under lock and key or in your end of the world bunker where the Feds can never take it from you.
So yes, you can physically touch the product that's storing it. If that is not enough for you then I don't know man.
People who campaign for this shit were either already playing or were never going to pick up a fight stick to begin with. Censoring boobs isnt' going to make scrubs suddenly flock to your game and be eager to get absolutely fucking mauled for their first hundred hours of gameplay.
Removing sex appeal has never made anyone do anything. That's not how human motivation works. The only way it could work is if the censorship shifted it down to a lower ESRB rating and that severely impacted customer or marketing access.
Also there's no amount of content tweaking that will make someone play a pvp fighting game. They're just too niche of a genre. I have Skull Girls and I've barely played it because it's just too hyper and fiddly and basically multiplayer only. As a fighting game casual I've only really enjoyed Soul Calibur 3 because of the extensive single player adventure and customization (and sex appeal).
Fighting games have a clear target demographic. It tends to be male, 14-22, and black. When I think 17 year old black man, I think "Gee willikers, I sureby do hope these properly clad type-2 bodies aren't sporting any intimidating armbands or, dare I say it, intimidating undergarments! What could be next, they mightn't tell us their pronouns?!".
10€ say he won't.

I'm so glad we got rollback for Xrd. I was not a happy camper once Happy Chaos dropped.

He fired them because it was HIS company and they demanded he resign and give them everything FOR FREE
Reminder that Mariel Cartwright is a communist whore who helped lead the charge against Zaimont and stole Ahad's style for years.
bitch has abs tho
....Probably not anymore lol
kys
now
We need a Visa system PRONTO
Use monero.
If you can't hold it, you don't own it.
Indeed, self custody is important. Get the hell away from those 'central exchanges'.
What self-custody? It does not physically exist.
Buy gold.
Or at least GME, like I recently did, hoping others are right about the Mother of All Short-Squeezes. And I have physical proof of my ownership less than three feet away from me as I type this.
You can physically own a bitcoin key. It remains a currency, rather than an investment vehicle: as I am constantly reminding people.
The fact that it doesn't exist as a physical object is exactly how the feds can be prevented from seizing it.

Hell, the value the US$ had just 10 years ago.

Feds gonna fed. The mention of monero in particular, a currency more fungible and private than bitcoin, makes them go particularly ballistic.
PS: Paper wallets made to look like a shopping list.
The faggot isn't even 18

Also "problematic stuffs"? Is this a real person?
Remind me again what a "tourist" is in this context?
Is it someone who just looks at stuff and never spends actual money on it?
All he has to do is make another game, with everything the same except enough cosmetic changes to seem different.

That guy is definitely a liar.
I have never heard of this game before this week, but have now seen four straight days with posts about it. What gives?
