Then I guess it was mistake to put the game on EVO |
Smash is in EVO and it isn't a fighting game. Just because you're at EVO doesn't mean you're a fighting game. Being a fighting game isn't some badge of honor. It's a categorization. Pokken is a competitive action game, as per the words of the people who actually made the game. Hareda literally said that it's not a fighting game, just like Sakurai did with smash.
That doesn't mean it doesn't belong at EVO. It does. There is an overlap in the audiences that watch and play these games. That's all that needs to be there for a game to be played at EVO. People have to want to watch it there and people have to want to play it there.








. Not sure why you think is a competitive action game but it's not, it's a fighting game.
