Opinion: Where Do Fighting Games Go From Here?

There are some things I do agree with on Sirlin while there are many things I disagree with. However, I do think Capcom should be called out for claiming they made this game to be user friendly and simply for people to get into when it clearly isn't.
 
The only real issue there is that it raises the entry level bar for no real reason.

Hmm, the execution is in general a lot more lenient than ST, and for high level play, it isn't really that big of an issue. No matter how you look at it though, execution has nothing to do with yomi. And two people who haven't invested the time to learn combos can still play a game with plenty of yomi, so I find all this complaining to be quite stupid.

Is it accessible to play at a high level? No way, since the average player would just be so far behind in damage output. Can someone pick it up and have fun and play with mind games? Yes definitely.
