>>78732333here is the thing: fighting games died when the competitve scene became a thing
So rolling 2000s I buy dracula judgment. Kusoge sure, fun against cpu. Maybe fight against my cousin, all good. Its not popular? who gives a fuck. E-sport? what is that? A joke?
Soon you will be saying shit like wii sports should be in the olympics lol.
Nowdays dracula judgment gets released and it becomes a "discord fighter " and soon enough you fight no one to play with. Its also a 10 year commitment to the devs because they have to "balance" the game with regular "patches" and they have to create a "competitive scene".
Its simply not worth it to create new fighting games if no one is going to buy them because no one is going to buy them
