I forgot that AAA slop devs actually made fun games that didn't have money pits

I remember Marvel vs Capcom 3 being advertised on Newgrounds yeaaaars ago. By Egoraptor and a bunch of other artists if I remember correctly. The animations should still be there.

Aside from it being split into 3 games, this is how I feel about the FF7 remakes. They are so very full of love and obvious developer passion. The gameplay systems are internally consistent, the charachters are adorable, the world is beatiful. Once you own the game, it doesn’t ask again. You can just step into the world and live there until the credits roll. I was worried, and I’m still worried, that some squenix exec will ruin it. But it hasn’t happened. Remake and Rebirth are simply good games. Anything bad you could say about them is subjective. I know the gameplay and charachters don’t jell with everyone but I love it. Same goes for the modern Resident Evil games, Armored Core 6, Horizon and GoW. There are still good AAA games. But they for sure aren’t the rule anymore, but the exceptions. They can’t avoid employing artists, and every now and then they fail to stop them from making something good.

If you’re looking for other Capcom fighting games that won’t bug you about buying addons, the Marvel vs. Capcom Collection has Marvel vs Capcom 2, as well as the older MvC games. And Capcom Fighting Collection 2 has Capcom vs. SNK 2. The Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection has SF3, although I think people were disappointed with that one and I forget why. But yeah, I get what you’re saying. I dug up my Dreamcast recently, and it’s so refreshing how every game is just… the entire game. Like, the whole thing is there, on the disc. If you have it, you have all of it.
