I'm a PC gamer first, but the fighting game community gravitates torwards consoles.


As a PC gamer first Capcom, Arc and the lot should just pull out from PC, fighting genre is completely dead there, no profit to be made at all.

What? Porting is easy these days, so as long as the math supports it, it makes sense to do :

cost of port < profits from PC sales = PC version should be made

cost of port > profits from PC sales = PC version should be skipped

Given the trends over the past 5 years, along with DX12 and newer IGPs coming with huge performance increases = PC should grow continually. It's not like the gen7 days when everybody's architecture and performance range was vastly different. A game that is up and running on PS4 and/or X1 can be dropped onto PC (or vice versa) REALLY easy compared to how it was before.

Tons of multiplats are day 1 on PC now. SFV should do great there, thanks to Xbox loyalists who might want to play it but who don't want to buy a PS4.

Console and PC gaming are doing great, all things considered.
