Soul
Yôma kanryou!
I never said they should completely forget about the gameplay.Not trying to be rude but gameplay is the alpha and omega in this genre, as Not a Peacock said SF4 was active for so many years thanks to its gameplay. On the other hand, Soul Calibur franchise is an "anomaly", an expectation. The majority of the FGC is ignoring it and many casuals love it, coming to conclusion that balance is the key to success.
Sure it's priority,but other aspects need supervision as well.
They should focus on gameplay AND other single player content for it to be successful and provide the fans with SC7 in the future.
Why do you think SCV flopped?
