For the first time in the 9 1/2 years since Street Fighter 5's launch, USF4 has surpassed it in every current metric of popularity on PC.
SF4 now has a higher monthly peak & more average players over the last 30 days.
SF5 only has a higher launch peak now (and cross play)

Me with video game art direction:
It doesn’t matter if it’s unrealistic, demand it and let them know you are demanding it.

Fatal Fury City of the Wolves is just that Poochy episode of the simpsons. "You want a game with unlockable content, no microtransactions but lots of DLC, deep mechanics but simple, stylized art that is believably realistic, & highly marketed but not to every1"

Not sure how I feel about the new Hives track, they hit it out of the park with Death of Randy Fitzsimmons and only waiting 2 years between albums is awesome so I'll give em the benefit of the doubt there will be some riff and call/response bangers on The Hives Forever Forever the Hives

I want to be in the room when they were pitching "Street Fighter 6: Fighters Edition" as a title.

Our feature artist/tutorial today is this lovely page on CLOTHING FIT, by the talented @miyuliart.bsky.social! Remember with BAGGY clothing that we’re showing TWO important elements - DRAPERY ANCHOR POINTS (shoulders, hips, etc) and GRAVITY - VOLUME will bunch LOWER because of this. #anime

Do not use Grok or Chat GPT or AI art tools. It's important. I know they were funny to clown around with when they first arrived, but now we know more about what purpose they serve. If you are serious about the threat you think they pose, do not use them even for ironic reasons

Selling your company for 33billion dollars to another company you also own feels somehow like money laundering. Maybe I'm wrong technically, but it FEELS like that. #truthiness

Seems like figthing games is one of the genres where the main (relatively tiny)fanbase is too vocal,change averse and highly technically minded for there ever to be a new game changer release, unfortunately.I enjoyed those years where big and small actors threw stuff at the wall and some of it stuck

One minor polish type thing, and is likely related to the 'loading' issues City of the Wolves experiences is that when you highlight a character on character select it will load a low quality version of the character first then the different shader effects will 'pop' in over time. Looks bad.

SNK should have considered having Code Mystics do KOF13's update rather than do SvC Chaos. if they didn't feel like delaying SvC or KOF13 to allow CM to do both, have Safari do SvC. SvC is a niche & panned fighter while Mystic has historical quality results & KOF13 is one of SNK's most beloved games

I agree with the sentiment that SNK would be wise to delay Fatal Fury until maybe summer to iron out the menus, load times, and match making. I also would like to see a full frame data display(hitbox would be nice too) & some more input shortcuts for training mode; like select being reset.

I wonder if SNK will remove Preecha's kara throw, seems like she might be the only character with one (or if other characters have one the movement amount is extremely small).
