Fighting Games will continue to suffer until the "FGC" stops fellating the fuck out of Capcom/Street Fighter, while downplaying and ignoring the entire rest of the genre except Tekken. There honestly isn't a bigger cult around than the one around Street Fighter. Literally no other franchise and company would have gotten away with something like Street Fighter V. If Namco, Sega, SNK, or Arc Systems would have put out something like that for any of their franchises, their Fighting Game divisions would be dead, and they would be shat on by everyone. Their game wouldn't have been still the top 3 most played for years, wouldn't have still gone on to sell 7+ million copies, and there wouldn't be tons of people unironically saying how everyone should play said game despite it's quality because "Fighting Games might be in trouble if it's a failure".
