Name a bigger tragedy than this.

UMvC3s balance and xfactor are straight kusoge but its fun as fuck

And the weak sound design, the forgettable OST and inconsistent quality animaton. SNK characters look gorgeous in terms of sprites, but most of the Capcom characters look off.

there's a reason only capcom won bigly from the collaboration

they gave us zero in a fighting game and i can never forgive them for that
i cant even look forward to marvel 4 for that reason, just gonna play mvc2 from now on

I actually before this Zero over the X version and I'm glad he even got the chance, but holy shit does his inclusion feel on purpose and an obligation instead of something worth two shits like MvC.
