Dominique McLean / SonicFox - I'M GAAAAAAAYYYY

[CIA Nigger]

Why exactly was he added to Skullgirls though?
I thought people in the background were added because they were early backers. Were people added after that?
It just seems like a weird flex.

Aside from the obvious woke points (which Skullgirls has done by changing the sex of a cameo character because the person became a tranny), it could also be an attempt to boost the playerbase by latching on to an e-celeb's audience. E-celeb cameos in games aren't uncommon, Payday 2 had H3H3/Ethan Klein as a paid DLC pack (lol) and Doug Walker was in Streets of Fury. The idea is likely the same reason that video games would have crossover characters back in the day, so that fans of one game will check out the other game.

This hasn't gone over well. There's people mocking SonicFox for the fact that he's a furry who's entire personality relies on being a furry, and then there's his defenders who only defend him based on the fact that he's a "queer black furry" who won a few tournaments. The novelty wore off the minute he gave the infamous speech.

Because woke points. That and I imagine trying to repay him for giving their shit game exposure.

Skullgirls is cool though.

It's only good for Jojo references with Big Band and wrasslin' references with the kigurumi wearing wolf dude

 

[Y2K Baby]

Jojo references

Kill yourself, you utter cancer.

 

[I-chi]

Mike is also one of Trumps' Chosen. Just saying. He's also a pompous asshole who thinks Skullgirls is the greatest fighting game ever made and he's eternally mad that the fighting game community rejected it.

Arcana Hearts forever did it better lol.

At risk of derailing a bit but i would apreciate a crash course on why Skullgirls failed, im more of an art person and very bad at fightings games, so when i saw the quality artwork in skullgirls i could had sworn it was gonna make it big but it kinda just fizzled out.

Think of Skullgirls as Overwatch without Blizzard's financial backing.

Absolutely retarded analogy.

I like how everyone suddenly hates Skullgirls because a furry was added in the background. You fucks are so predictable.

No. The Fighting Game Community hated it because it's an autistically designed game and the weeb fags who constantly talk about it are obnoxious cunts.

>Fighting Game Community
>Deeming anything autistic

Also, nice revisionism. Whether or not the league of autistic gamers will suck its dick past its death date like Melee, it doesn't change the fact that an overwhelmingly well-reveived game is suddenly being criticized by literal who's because of a nontroversy.

Two different communities, Smash is considered separate from the fighting game community because the autism is at a whole other level and Smash players never bathe.

Yes, fighting game autists are so much more superior to Smash fags, of course.
(Except that they're equally as embarassing and pathetic.)

Pretty much all "video game communities" are autistic and gay tbh

They're both autistic but they're not the same thing. They're in the same sphere of autism.

 

[Tism the Return]

Absolutely exceptional analogy.

Your average nibba knows more about the SG designs of the characters than the actual game. To paraphrase another farmer SG is more popular as aesthetic than a game, much like no one gives a shit about OW but you'll find a bunch of coomers and alphabet crusaders raving about the characters themselves. The analogy checks out.

Point stands that I don't trust the consensus of a bunch of tools.

Overwatch was created as a soulless cash-grab for the e-sports crowd with marketing out the ass. Everything about Skullgirls screams soul. It doesn't matter how bad you think it is, it was a passion project.
You also don't know anything about Skullgirls as a game because you never played it and are basing your analysis on surface-level conversations you observed other people having.

Also, basically every fighting game is the fucking same.

 

[Y2K Baby]

Moreover, nobody talks about the fighting game unless it's tech shit because it's a fucking fighting game.

And I've seen equal amounts of tech shit for Skull Girls as with any other fighting game. This is a non-point through and through.
