This looks awful

>>712711060 (OP)
Still looks better than your favorite game

>>712711060 (OP)
No MF no play.

>>712711060 (OP)
>announced in 2019
>only 8 characters
lmao

>>712711060 (OP)
Who is this even for? If someone wants to play a fighter they'll play Tekken. As for lolnigs they definitely won't switch to playing this.

>>712711060 (OP)
Cute toes

I love that they still use Ekko for their marketing when it is a champion no one uses and no one gives a fuck about

>>712711087
Looks dead on arrival. Marvel Tokon Fighting Souls is going to kill it.

>>712713642
different business models means 2xko is basically invincible. people will buy tokon ofc, but it wont live as long as 2xko

>>712711060 (OP)
Yep. Another flop from riot games

>>712713642
>another ugly marvel product
lol fuck off

>>712711060 (OP)
>>712712734
I'd think this game being another genre and all would have a more original roster, but no, it's the same characters Riot spams fucking everywhere.

>>712713114
They want something easier to catch people with after getting into League of Legends stuff via Arcane or future multimedia projects but damn, Riot chose the second most autistic target audience after MOBA players.

jayce or vi, next confirmed champ?

It's amazing how they managed to fuck up everything when it would've been as easy as release a sf4 clone with rollback back in 2019.

wolf lady sexo

>>712713114
>someone wants to play a fighter they'll play Tekken
you sound like someone who thinks the only fighters are MK and tekken and you unironically think the genre is just button mashing

>>712711060 (OP)
LMAO

>a bunch of characters I hate
>based off a game I hate
>by faggoted brain poisoned developers I hate
I have washed my hands of riot games my life has improved since then, I encourage you to drop the league addiction

>An even more woke Fightan than MK1
No thanks.

>>712715387
>HxH game
>60 dollary doos
anon that is literally the only game more dead than 2xko on arrival because at least the league garbage is free

>>712713642
It's amazing how Arcsys
>kills DBfags
>cucks Capcom
>kills 2XKO and LoLfags
>kills that Invincible game before it's even announced.

>>712711060 (OP)
Biggest fumble in a long time.

>>712715387
>invincible
*vomits*

>>712711060 (OP)
Why not just make a gacha?

>>712717313
That would require them to make attractive females again.

>>712711060 (OP)
This >>712712734
It looked appealing, not really for the game itself but for the community, before we got Strive, SF6, and the rest of the fighting games that came out with standardized rollback, lobbies, etc.
There's no reason for it now except to try to get league whales to pay for skins in a game they definitely won't play

>>712714717
looks like shit but especially if it uses the league client like TFT does, in combination with really easy inputs, its guaranteed a playerbase of loldrones.
i hate riot so not going to play

>>712711060 (OP)
I like to laugh at this game because riot is a joke but then I remember this game is also a hyper casual baby game with no motions, tokon was already eating it's lunch without them abandoning core fighting game mechanics to appeal to a non existent audience.

why do westies keep trying to make fighting games
it never works out
>inb4 indie smash clones
fuck off you know that i mean when i say fighting game

>>712711060 (OP)
Ekko has to be the most forced character in a game, ever. Despite how much Riot has given him spotlight over the years Jhin is still more popular lmao.

>>712714717
They already have TFT but apparently the mobile, casual version of League, Wild Rift, surpasses it anyway

>>712718036
I want to see Europeans making a fighter. They never tried so it might be something cool.

>>712713114
Ever since Overwatch released, they got scared and tried to make another game.
But it's difficult to make a new game, that's good, when your company mostly consists of character/skin designers and the only game you have was just a knock off of an existing game and bunch of stolen ideas from reddit

I FUCKING HATE RIOT NIGGAS
I HATE THAT FUCKING TOILET MOP HAIRSTYLE
WORST FUCKING CHARACTERS EVER DESIGNED

>>712718306
it's not that popular a genre over there relatively speaking. maybe it'd be different but i doubt it'd be good.

>>712718036
It's because their only innovation and "insight" in the past 15 years has been around tertiary shit like netplay and simplification or streamlining for a dumber audience that doesn't show up. I don't think they realise that in the modern era these idiosyncrasies are a key element that distinguishes your genre from the endless tidal wave of homogenised slop.

>>712711060 (OP)
this game is so dead. literally no one, not one soul, is eagerly waiting for it.

>>712718390
Majority of Tekkens market/playerbase is Euros according to Harada himself also BlazBlue always was popular there so its not like they dont play. Overall they never made a single fighting game so euros trying to make one could be actually really interesting.

>>712712734
I remember hearing whispers of a LoL fighting game being made way back in 2014. this shit had been floating around for over a decade now.

>>712718449
Asian fighters have also gotten worse in the past 15 years so its not exclusive to Westerners.
Also I think MK: Shaolin Monks had the most innovative single player mode but nobody else copied it. SF6 kinda tried to do it with their single player.

>>712711060 (OP)
artstyle is great but it's a FGslop do it's a DoA even as a riot game

>>712718036
mortal kombat is certainly a profitable product even if the gameplay is shit
clearly what that new invincible game is going for with all the blood i imagine

>>712718643
World Tour isnt even close to Shaolin Monks. I agree that SM is amazing game though and I would love to see new one. NRS actually needs a game like that to rewrite and stabilize the lore finally instead of rebooting shit 100 times ans writing themselves into wall. Single player game like Shaolin Monks would let them do that.

>>712718643
Asia adopts western trends because they are trying to appeal to western audiences. Sf5 had that ridiculous mortal Kombat style single player campaign because Americans were screaming for it, Japanese games started adopting these motionless control schemes many years after Americans become obsessed with simplification, rollback was the one good influence.

The idea that any western studio would do something like tokon and ADD complexity? 4v4? That's way too crazy, we need simplification, tag fighters need to be 2v2.

>>712718559
literally everyone who dont want to pay 80 bucks for something that is just going to have a sequel that is 80 bucks

>>712720317
>going to have a sequel that is 80 bucks
that is also just going to have a sequel that is 80 bucks

What is with this explosion of tagshit?
Do publishers not realize tag fighters are for autistic FUCKS.
The complexity diff between a tag game and 1v1 game is massive.

what will happen is
>normies will download the game
>get fucked by some degenerate mix up where they can't even tell what is going on.
>uninstall the game.
>game will be deemed a failure and get shut down because only 300~ people are left playing it.
but no, why make a 1v1 fighter when you can make a 3x3 fighter where they can buy 3x the skins they would otherwise!

>>712718364
remember when ekko had the mohawk that actually looked cool?

The only people waiting for this are people like leffen who just wants the pay check from riot esports.

>>712720741
Based Leff

>>712711060 (OP)
Unironically I'm glad that ArcSys' not-Mahvel will kill this game for good.

>>712711060 (OP)
The last alpha lab kinda killed it for me. I played AL1 like a mad man but AL2 I don't think I've played a single online match and if I did, it was so boring I forgot about it.
I was one of the few glazers since day 1 but the wait killed the hype and then HxH, Fighting Souls and InvincVS buried it for me.

>>712711060 (OP)
its a fighting game in an completely oversaturated market
You can boot up Mugen and play literally every character in existence and its not just a skinswap

>>712711060 (OP)
I wonder when did Riot realize that the Cannon brothers have no idea what they are doing and are just collecting paychecks for 9 years now. A niche sub-genre that a few weirdos ask for then they go back to Tekken and SF, character art style that doesn't look like it's made by a major studio yet probably takes more time to make than any other fighting game while Marvel Tokon looks infinitely better, lame ass supers (Is it so hard to look what CyberConnect2 did with the Naruto games), idiotic lobby system, idiotic name. Riot should sue these 2 clowns.
