If capcom released this game this month with all of it's single player content and players it would have sold amazingly well instead of being the biggest flop of the year.
They could have easily had a closed beta that anyone who pre-ordered the game could play. That way the game could have been at evo and not release too early.

Still would have been shit though

Games have deadlines because publishers think developers are always trying to fuck on them.

Publishing companies are run by people who not only lack any hands-on knowledge of what makes a good video game, but often disdain video games themselves. Part of the older generation that sees games as "a waste of time". So what ends up happening is they treat the developers like they are producing something which is less an artistic endeavor and more like a basic consumer good: you give them money for a game, they give you a game back, it's success depends entirely on marketing.

Which we all know is bullshit, but they are boomers: it's how they view product development. The idea that a game can be good or bad doesn't really make sense to them. It's a line item.

Nope it still sucks, its slow as fuck, and even way more boring to watch, i swear it's the first time since SFA 2 that watching tournaments of SF has no appeal.

Every time, Holla Forums isn't for fighting games, you all suck dick at fighting games, no one on Holla Forums is FGC, just give up, it's an entire genre and a community you will never be a part of and your opinion on anything involving this entire genre is fucking meaningless.

Who is the publisher for capcoms SFV that forced them to shit out a game early?
That's right, stop embarrassing yourself, battered housewife.

buyer's remorse thread?

It was Sony, actually. Capcom wanted those juicy Sonybux that they were offering. A partnership with the Shitstation brand meant that they needed to release the game earlier.

As I have always said, Sony is literally responsible for every shitty practice in the industry.

what's stopped capcom from not buying into sony deal? sony did nothing wrong there, it was capcom who squandered money into DmC, Lost Plane 3 and MML3

…battered housewife? You don't know what that term means do you?

Essentially this. they released the actual figure at one point but Sony was putting up a massive amount of the budget for SF5/
