The dev said are no finishers or stage finishers in the game.  So no ultimates either.

Not jumping the gun on anything.  This game would be a massivefailure of a sequel on any console when it missing all I posted.

So the game is a failure if it doesn't have those gimmicky finishers? I take it you don't play any Capcom fighters because they don't have them either. I assume you also don't ever watch any high level Evo gameplay since they don't ever do finishers in games that actually  have them. Gameplay > gimmicks


Oh but easy long combos for the sake of long combos isn't a gimmick?  No double standards there at all.

Every fighter has an identity, Mortal Kombat without recognisable characters, fatalities or gore isn't Mortal Kombat anymore, same way Killer Instinct missing most of its identity isn't Killer Instinct anymore.

Evo really doesn't matter for judging on the quality of a fighter and mass appeal, Marvel vs Capcom 2 was a broken mess yet was at Evo for years, Street Fighter III was at Evo for years yet SFIII was hated by most SF fans and so disliked due to abandoning the series identity it killed the SF series for a decade.


It's still Killer Instinct. It just has just been changed to be like Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat.
