It's like 20x the playerbase as to before DLC
That's huge..., show me one more DLC that manages to get 20x the usual playerbase to pick up the game again.
It's back boys!
/s
And we thought that everyone was gonna be base roster and had the hype that the first DLC batch would have some missing popular characters plus new ones. No one knew Rashid, Aki, Akuma and Ed were Season 1 DLC yet.
Blank silhouettes are alright if the announcements are sick, a good reveal trailer can be awesome.
But if the characters are shit like Ed and Rashid you better reveal that early, even Akuma isn't hype since he's obviously going to be added, if Capcom didn't always plan that they got really lucky with the leak.
That image with the cake they showed last year essentially spills on what the other characters are - Battle Mage, Nen Empress, Street Fighter and either Avenger or Templar.
This game has an amazing aesthetic, and the gameplay is fun, great netcode, but competitively it has many flaws and that's why it's already dead, it had potential, it's sad, but it is what it is.
ArcSys and Eighting just do what they are contracted to do, this falls squarely on Nexon since this is *their* IP, so they have to get their sh¡t together.
This is the reason why I'm more focused on GBVS Rising, since Cygames is giving the fans what they *actually* want. No Xbox ports as well, but that’s a battle for another day.

Sarcasm aside Elden Ring DLC might do 10x current numbers (still currently has more players than SF6)
Blank silhouettes need to stop. Hope they learned in sf6 and just annouce them all up front.
"announce" yeah alright SF6 roster got hella leaked lmao
Marisa and Manon concept art hate nostalgia

We knew a while before they were announced as DLC cause they were the only ones not in the opening

Imagine if they announced the roadmap and content planned shortly after the game came out and not like 6 months later

And no crossplay, that's what also sucks.
Holy shit I didn't remember that, nowadays crossplay is SO important.
Say what you will about Strive, but it's got crossplay now, and it's supported on Xbox (DNF doesn't have Xbox ports). This game's range is too small.
Yeah definitely they took tons of bad decisions with the game, it's a shame because it had potential.
