Yeah, I was all the way wrong on how I thought this would sell.

That over the top advertising and random guest characters didn’t do them any favors

Man the Saudis got infinite money. I want the game to succeed but between a bad release time and random ass advertising shyt was DOA

Put Ronaldo and DJ Who-gives-a-shyt in your game, rice-brehs

SNK CEO steps down from position

Damn that sucks..The game is very good and it got promoted to high heaven and it still bombed this badly? Even with Terry in Smash and SF 6.

All the money used to pay Ronaldo could have been invested in more developers to have an even bigger roster. Hopefully when Ken and Chun li come along it will give the game another jolt. Ken is coming out in the summer and Chun li in the winter, so hopefully snk has some hype trailers for EVO. It's a fun game and for me the best snk game since the company came back almost 10 years ago.

The celebrities were a stupid idea honestly, had they launched with Ken and Chunli instead they would’ve atleast take some players from sf6 but who tf wants to plays as Reynaldo? Or the Dj guy? Who asked for that??? Not only that but your main characters Mai and Terry look better on sf6.

Hate the art style. Looks like a 2000s flash game.

This doesn't mean anything, we can see how much people are playing on Steam everyday and it's really low with that marketing budget. You don't remove a CEO from his position a month after a launch if it's not seen as being a failure.

And it sucks because it's a great fighting game, but they fukked it up with some really bad decisions.

Damn I am rooting for this game to do well it really is a fun game even though I bytched about the DJ at first he has grown on me.

Really hoping with the DLC sales can pick up they deserve more success

Is it because the game is too difficult? I also feel a Fatal Fury reboot would have been better. The story makes no sense to newcomers, they're not invested.

Again all I'm saying is that it's doing about what should be expected of it.

But the amount of money dumped into the marketing was insane and didn't move the needle at all so it flops in that sense.

IMO, minus that I think the game would land right about in realistic expectations for a 20 year old fighting game sequel.
