I adore that they're a bit closer as companies now too, with how SF6 is getting Fatal Fury characters as DLC. I don't think it's crazy to say that it's likely for Garou to get some SF characters too. And like Max has said elsewhere, if all of this goes well that's the first step to getting a new versus game. Finally feels like it's on the table as a possibility again at least.

As Max said regarding to Terry's reveal on Smash: "Aw, man, this is why Smash it way too good. It's because they give a shit. They like, care, you know? This is all fighting games fan want, that Smash fans get. (..) Just to see the developers give a shit"

when will people realize that input difficulty is part of the balance of the game and is a crucial part of risk-reward? There's a reason combos are not exciting in recent FGs, and that we will never have another "evo moment 37" in modern FGs. That is just the simple and inevitable tradeoff of making FGs more "accessible"

I hope CotW can sell well, but I'm not expecting Street Fighter or Tekken numbers, much less expecting it to sell as many copies as Mortal Kombat. While SNK's games are popular in various regions like Latin America, China, South Korea and the Middle East, most of their popularity comes from the arcade versions, and plenty of people in some regions played pirated versions at that. But to be fair, if the game reviews well, has a decent amount of fighter in its launch and SNK gives it enough publicity, City of the Wolves could sell as well as Guilty Gear: Strive. It'll also help the fact that the game will come out in all major consoles, that the PS4 is included and perhaps it could come out on Nintendo's next console as well.

One thing that I feel might be confusing for some new players is the Revving Up mechanic. Not because it's hard to understand, but rather because it's presented in a way that makes it look like it's a good thing to do. The gauge fills up (something that is usually attributed to good things or resources in fighting games), the "Revving Up" message looks more like a "Keep going" message than a warning, and it doesn't help that the slogan of the game is "Rev it up! Unleash your fury!".

@spoonimefan 17 күн бұрын

Agreed. Until Max explained in this video, I thought it was similar to SFIV's Ultra Meter or something due to graphical presentation. The only other meter I can remember visually like this is the Stun Meter from SF3. (Granted, there are *a lot* of FG's I'm not familiar with.) Here the color is yellow, which is also associated with the Super Meter *that the Rev Gauge is connected to*. This visually implies a connection with something *you want* to fill. And when the Rev Gauge *is* full, it then affects a different meter visually disconnected from it at *the top* of the screen. And this one goes *down* as your condition gets worse. It feels counterintuitive. 🤷 That said, as someone else pointed out, once you know about it and its properties and spend time with the game you can (almost subconsciously) remember Rev Gauge = bad.

Only hidden suppers had different input... so they are staying true to original game.

I don't mind the standardized super commands. I'll miss the variety and will always fondly remember learning Raging and Rising Storms with Geese Howard... but it's also nice to just pick up a new character and known how to do a move. You still gotta learn when and why after all. BUT~!!! I do wish they had gone with og Power Geyser instead of double fireball. Not for nostalgia, of SNK identity and flavor, but rather simply because I think the motion is much easier and intuitive for new players to learn. The upside to double fireball is that it applies to other games as well. But for someone who is totally new to fighting games? Quarter circle back, half circle forward is a much smoother and easier motion to learn. Plus psychology wise it stands more seperate from the double qcf since it's two seperate motions instead of a doubling of a motion you're learning to do for different results. Plus it can't conflict with DPs, etc. Wackier things aside, I really think the "standard" SNK motions of this and towards, HCF, are just better inputs then double qcf. But meh. This works too.

From what I've seen on the website, the simple controls can't do breaks or faints. In the older build they couldn't even do SPG supers at all.

“After that first hour, you start to get used to the mechanics.” I think we need to translate fighting game player time to normal human time. In this case, one hour for a fighting game player equals 1 month for a normal human.

He's a capcom fighter. So 1 hour for him equals to probably 10 minutes for me.

@ShinUltima is that an insult? Lol. He recently started playing snk fighters. I still own my neo and have played them all since release at the highest level. There's a big fucking difference. Capcom, our knowledge should be the same. Nrs etc he should have way more than I have. Snk, no contest.

For some reason, I think City of the Wolves looks like a mixture between, KoF XV and XIII, the original Mark of the Wolves and Real Bout 2 and the latest Samurai Shodown. We could say that SNK developers are getting better at 3D modeling and design

@@hasdachatlogs I'd also love to hear Junko Takeuchi voicing Hokutomaru, especially since she voiced him before landing the role of Naruto, but it seems like Hokutomaru's voice in CotW first trailer wasn't Junko's. We have to remember that SNK has recasted all of their characters' voices since the release of KoF XIV, only certain characters like King, Benimaru, Athena, Shingo and Ash are still voiced by their original seiyū

@@hasdachatlogs it's just that I missed hearing Satoshi Hashimoto as Terry, Takashi Kondo does a good job, but Satoshi voiced Terry from Fatal Fury 3 up to KoF XIII and his voice was really iconic. Rock is now voiced by Yūma Uchida instead of Eiji Takemoto. Speaking about voice acting, I think it's pretty cool that City of the Wolves is the first major SNK with English voice acting, there were some attempts in the past with the Maximum Impact games, but I don't really count those. I wish SNK could dub CotW into Neutral Spanish and Portuguese, but I think that despite SNK's popularity in LatAm, they still want to capture the attention of the U.S. audience first, not to mention that dubbing a game into multiple languages is very expensive, Mortal Kombat is the only major fighting game that is dubbed into various languages since MKX, and that includes Latin American Spanish

Man this game looks amazing, especially on 4k, SNK really learned from Kof 14 & 15 and have improved a lot given that this is made on newer hardware. The best part though is how in actual motion the game feels when you watch it being played, the optimized combos especially those featuring the feint cancels and SPG supers, look amazing and the defensive options such as JD are great as the game is mechanically dense. Can't wait for the game right now
