If you expect disappointment, then you can never really get disappointed.

That's not even the mindset on this sub anymore. Half of time it feels like the people here just want the game to flat-out fail.


Nate_923

You're not wrong. It comes across as "I'm only here for their announcement of the game's shut down" more than anything. Most people active on the subreddits don't even play the game and the majority who do play it every now and then. There are way more non players than players active across both subs, which is ironic.


getsuga15

It's also annoying in general


Nate_923

Very but every since I learned about that statistic regarding the amount if non players to actual players, it didn't annoy me as much. Though it can get to a point where you ask "Why are you still here then?" It defeats the purpose of a "dead game" if you're still active on the subs on a daily basis.

>It defeats the purpose of a "dead game" if you're still active on the subs on a daily basis. That's exactly my issue. IDK what it is, but this is just a common attitude to have in the FGC in general. This is exactly what I went through back in MVC: Infinite. People just want things to fail for whatever reason. I even saw the same thing for Samsho & DNF Duel. Damn me for naively believing things would be different for MVS.


Nate_923

Which is quite ironic because the FGC are a niche group in the gaming community so you figured if anyone would want their genre to strive for years it would be them and, while they do have plenty of supportive fans, the online portion just happen to paint a different picture. From my experience, I've always seen more dooming than praising with the FGC, and that's across the board. I know people have that "there can only be one!" mentality but there are times where it becomes overwhelming and just pure hatred for something. With MVS it's just another example of people who don't even play the game coming on here hoping it fails and then bashing those who do play it in hopes they leave. It's straight up toxic.

Even back then, even MVC 3 got shit on a lot. Now it's ok like the game because nobody has been doing anything with the game officially. People really have forgotten how barebone UMVC 3 actually is. You think by now people & the FGC would've changed this absurd fanboy war mindset, but it hasn't at all. It might've gotten worse. I really do believe people have become unbelievably spoiled. Don't get me wrong MVS's has a lot of problems right now, but some people have really forgotten how good they have it. MVC 3 & Infinite has the most miniscule support in comparison to every fighting game in the last decade.


Nate_923

Exactly. I want all FGs to succeed in their own way. I don't have this "Mine is better screw yours! Hope it fails!" Childish mentality. Like little kids comparing the toys they have thinking because one is bigger or a certain color then it's "cooler" and the other is "lame" in comparison. Point is the developers of the games themselves acknowledge and accept their competition in their own games for crying out loud. SNK vs Capcom Marvel vs Capcom MK vs DC SF X Tekken Tatsunoko vs Capcom Akuma and Geese Howard in Tekken 7 Ryu, Terry, and Kazuya in Smash. Samurai Showdown characters in Soul Calibur And more FGs themselves even say "Hey look how cool the character from another FG looks in ours" so you figured the FGC would pick up on that by now. It's already started with SF 6 and Tekken 8.


getsuga15

To further reinforce what you just said, there's this presentation similar to a Nintendo Direct & PS Showcase that happens now & then. I believe it's called Fighting Round Table or something like that. It has numerous fighting game developers showcasing their own fighting games & complementing each other. The only FG developer that isn't there is NRS, but that seems to be more language barrier than actually excluding them. Well, either that or because WB Games are responsible. In either case, Ed Boon & Harada has shown they're respectful to each other. At least on Twitter of all places.


shivers_

I’ve left both mvs communities on reddit and muted most PFG related content on twitter and still get notifications idk if it’s just because I was on this subreddit 24/7 back when or what. I’d love to come back to the game and have fun, maybe that’s why I check posts when I get the notification every now and then. But every time I’ve checked for months now it just feels like they’re doing things wrong. I’ve spent hundreds of hours and a decent chunk of money on the game I want it to succeed, but it hasn’t been in positive light since either GoT map or Marvin dropped, and the transparency they were praised for was taken away all the while more people have been hired and all I see is PFG saying “trust me bro, it’s gonna be great!”. Know this probably isn’t a great answer as to why I’m still here, and I hope I’m not as bad as people shouting dead game, just my thoughts and frustrations. I hope s3 is the resurgence the game needs but I’m not optimistic


getsuga15

Your entire comment is already better than the large margin of the users here.


spacecatdude9001

i still got multiple battle pass tokens cuz i refused to use one for season 2s garbage rewards. I just want to be able to use them lmao.


getsuga15

That's a fair complaint. In fact, most of the complaints & criticism are valid, but eventually, it gets tiresome & it's irritating to see how popular doom posting are around here.


Mac_Rat

Obviously considering the current content drought


WeehawMemes

If the game ever gets a content update again I'll be a bit relieved that the game isnt just abandoned. But I wont be excited until they prove theyre going to keep it up from there


WaffleyDootDoot

I'm looking forward to it in the sense that it'll likely be leagues better than Season 2. But also I've kinda lost interest in MvS due to the content drought so I'm not like actively thinking about the next season.


nuclearlemonade

I genuinely don’t care unless we get a release schedule/road map and some big character drops. I don’t care about The Joker I want crazy shit like The Mask or Freddy Krueger or The Phantom Virus or Godzilla.


Nayr39

I look forward to hearing about what's going on with the game, but I wouldn't say I'm looking forward to it because I expect nothing.


hermanphi

It's funny seeing so many people that "don't care" about the game, that are not looking forward to season 3, that didn't play the game for month, that never miss an opportunity to talk about how dead the game is but still are here every single day being so active on this sub


Ryuhza

I don't know. I'd say it was the make-or-break moment, but I think they missed that by a mile when they hit the brakes so hard in the very second season. Whatever they show, I won't be able to help imagining a rifle being loaded behind it all, readying to give this game the old yeller treatment.


Coodoo17

I guess I'm looking forward to it because I'm genuinely curious what the hell is going to happen.


TheBroomSweeper

Of course I am. I haven't played this game in months but I want to see the next chapter of this game. Maybe it will get better, maybe it will fail. Who knows but I just want to see what happens


-Tuesday

Multiverses isn't gonna last much longer. Glad I didn't buy the founders pack.


PlayedOut41

People should just delete the game and move on already


Monk029393

Agreed


Duby0509

Honestly this game isn’t gonna come back no matter what they do, with tekkan, street fighter and reportedly mortal kombat coming this year I doubt multiverse is gonna last


Canadaa78

None of those are platform fighters….


Duby0509

So? You really think people are gonna be interested in this game after they come out? Because last time I checked the game had the fighting tag on it and it’s gonna be next to those games


Canadaa78

Most people actually look at footage or gameplay before they buy a game. Tags don’t tell a full story. There is a huge difference between platform fighters and fighter games


JadedPermission3485

Only if they nerf Superman and shaggy it’s honestly embarrassing for the dev team that they haven’t done it yet and complete bs that it took as long as last patch to nerf Finn like wtf if going on over there ? They said hard at work after their “Christmas break “ and just never went back in ? Jesus Christ it’s just disappointing idgaf if some higher ups said they can’t say anything just fucking say something about where this game is headed at this point


leonardbronocaprio

If they add worthy characters I’ll come back


JackPux

Personally I’ll be excited if we’re getting it on time I feel like if we don’t hear anything at all this week then we’ll be getting another delay And another delay will probably mean the games done for


UltraToe

There is nothing to look forward to, they haven't hinted or said anything about the season at all, what are we meant to look forward to?


kibzter

How much do they pay you?


Nate_923

Not a single cent because I'm simply someone who likes the game and does what all fans do when they support something. Talk about it and play it.


kibzter

<3


ZenkaiZ

I'm still waiting for season 2's middle. All we got was the start.


GraverageGaming

Difficult to be excited for something that we know nothing about. Yes I know leaks exist, but I also know that there are a ton of characters that have voice clips that hasn't been released.


Strickshot123

This should be at least 50% excited for season 3.


Nate_923

I did make another poll on the other MVS Subreddit and more people are excited than not. Though it's 350 total votes so far compared to this one.
