Love how whenever FF's brought up the thing that actually matters - the great gameplay - is ignored. I'm not gonna virtue signal over what video game I play, sorry.

I'm kinda just done with being expected to give up everything that makes me happy because shitty people keep digging their claws into it. My two favourite things are fighting games and pro wrestling and both are being taken over by a regime that would execute me because I like cock. Why the fuck should I change. They're the ones that suck.

With SNK games people always make some sort of excuse to not play it that they stay silent on when it's present in other games anyway, this didn't start with the Saudi stuff. It's fine to just personally not be interested, dunno why folks don't like admitting that with SNK.

The amount and variety of excuses just proves one thing... That those people would not play the games even if SNK changed them, or if the games didnt even have the problems that those people were complaining about originally.

SNK could make a game with zero issues, and they would still find a reason to bitch and moan.

it's pretty weird to ignore the politics of it. yeah some people care

If anything, I find the entire politics of it to be the weirdest reason of all.

And I could even understand it, if its a "anything with Saudis involved should be boycoted" attitude, that I can respect.

But when its about just SNK, and every other developer gets a free pass just because they are not Saudi owned in majority, to me its an astronomical level of hypocrisy and insanity.

And when people even say with a straight face that there is a difference in those casses, and dont find anything wrong with their way of thinking, it just makes me feel like im in some episode of the twilight zone.

Part of me wants to believe it's because they don't know companies like Capcom have some of that big Saudi injection too, but...

I have seen so many "But-but (muh) CupCum is different, only 10 percent" comments, that I'm starting to lose faith in humanity at this point... If these are the people that are supposed to be morally "superior", I consider the future to be grim...

I wonder if they actually have a number that's considered the line crossed for them. Probably not. The line is "did I want to play their game in the first place".

As an FGC head who hasn't purchased this game but really enjoyed MOTW, I will say the roster, marketing and overall presentation isnt doing this game any favors.

That's fair, looking at it purely as a Garou sequel I think there are certain things left to be desired too. In general I def see SNK games get flak for certain things way more than others do though and it's been that way for over a decade now, that's all

You're not wrong. 

I feel like SNK is still trying to figure out an effective way to package their IPs for new/casual players. They have clearly been trying a new aesthetic since KOF14, and it has had mixed results at best.
