    I don’t play a niche game franchise enough to see the difference between last year’s iteration and this one, therefore I must not like games at all. It’s FIFA with anime characters to me, doesn’t mean I don’t like other things.

      “A niche game franchise” lmao Street Fighter is one of the most popular and well known game series in the world. I won’t say it’s the best fighting game franchise, but it is very much a household name just as much as Mario or Pokémon are.

            fine, whatever. i still don’t know or care what the difference is and neither do the majority of people, pedantry notwithstanding. because it’s niche.

                I know literally one person who plays fighting games seriously and keeps up with the market, to everyone else they’re once-on-a-while party games, if that. It’s not a bad thing, it just is. Calm down, Capcom won’t go on a date with you for defending their honor against the word “niche”.

                    next you’ll be insisting dance dance revolution isn’t niche because everyone knows what it is and some people actually play it.

      Street Fighter 1 was from 1987. Street Fighter 5 is from 2016. This is hardly a yearly franchise. Each release is a cornerstone of the fighting game genre. If you don’t like them or are uninterested, that’s obviously fine. But you’re using your ignorance to justify hating Street Fighter. That just doesn’t make sense and makes you come across as bitter. I would urge you to play the games you like, and ignore the games you don’t like. You’ll be generally happier.

        of course it isn’t annual, who said that? I never said I hated it either, I’m just not interested. it’s like nobody in here understands things like hyperbole, or figures of speech, or not caring about a niche genre. weirdos
