Wow. Initially all I was attempting was to give my own perspective about the perceived elitist attitude towards skill in fighting games. I wasn’t trying to make a criticism to the game, I wasn’t asking a question about why anyone makes games I don’t personally want to play. I wasn’t even WONDERING those things,…

It’s no fun to play and NEVER win. That’s a pretty simple concept. Not all of us have a lot (or any) friends that are gamers. We’re stuck playing online matches if we enjoy fighting games. That forces a bare minimum skill level - “You must be at least this good to even bother:” It becomes worse as the game gets older…

They are releasing it this early to fit with their pro tour so that there isn’t a huge gap and they can get it in people’s hands. That said, I would have rather waited and had a fully featured game.

“play it enough and you too might join their number”
