You have to take hours to unlock moves for each character. Like has any other fighting game locked moves for the sake of progress? Also a ton of Disney games did shitty stuff like this too

This meme is overblown. Yeah, there *were* changes made for rentals but they were marginal. Meanwhile zoomies and other bad players like to pretend like ANY ounce of challenge was "bad design on purpose to fuck with players so they wouldn't rent the game" as an excuse for themselves to use savestates and cheats.

The reason why action games were more challenging in the west was because the playerbase WANTED the challenge, while the average player in Japan didn't. Basically the RPG/Action games situation was reversed between Japan and the west.

Capcom did it. The fathers of the modern fighting game. If you realised this sooner you would be claiming it as an underrated genius move.

Can't fucking imagine that for an arcade game but they never did that again for a fighting game atleast. They did that shit for GTA online though which us why I immediately quit. Like how retarded is it that you have to level up to use a gun?

SNK did it. The true fathers of the modern fighting game. If you realised that sooner you'd be claiming it was an underrated genius move that Capcom later stole.

How many decades ago was the last time they did that? Imagine mario 64 where you couldn't do all of the jumps until like the 10th level then had to go back to get stars you couldn't get before.
