There's a GIF for that
Only 17 days to go until release! Anyone else excited for this? As a casual fighting game player, this game is looking absolutely brilliant.

I'm just concerned about the price at the moment. It looks like the cheapest place to buy it right now is Raru. Not sure I'm willing to spend that much at the moment.

Tempted to get it but I will probably hold off my purchase. I am slowly going through my backlog and don't want anything to push it further back.
 
I'm interested, but not in playing myself so much. I like to watch people that are good at this type of game play it. I'll definitely be watching a lot of it on Twitch.
 
There hasn't been much hype for this on the forums, despite it being such a long running title. Would have expected more.
 
Just a heads up for anyone who is planning on getting this but is a bit out of the loop, the game is currently mostly focused on the multiplayer aspects, with most of the single player content coming later.

The reason they are releasing it in this state is presumably to allow people to prepare for an upcoming tournament.

The game is already getting very positive reviews despite the missing features.
 
I'm a heavy street fighter fan (and fighters of the very same nature), but I'm not buying this yet even if I've been super excited. I agree with Totalbiscuit regarding the current value proposition of the game (shallow). Frankly, if the value proposition doesn't match Street Fighter IV or surpass it then you're not getting the full price from me (pfft, even Skullgirls is more feature complete at this point).

I'm really tempted to go out and buy it right now just because of how great the fighting mechanics seem to have moved forward and evolved. But yeah, I'll buy it when it's complete.

Yeah, I wish more people would get it, since I have no-one else to play with at the moment, but I don't blame people for being hesitant.

I would love to get it, just my priorities at the moment are focused elsewhere. I've always been a more Street Fighter fan over other titles in the same genre, since the good ol penny arcade machines.
 
I have pretty much finished all the Street Fighter games with Ken (From Street Fighter 1 down to all the SF2 turbos, alfa's to IV) It is so tempting. I am a fan. SF IV had some new moves and characters that was incorporated and made it easy to play online (Enjoy the game) - but even though I am excited about this title - I really want For Honor more and not sure how much it will go for + I will surely need some RAM and car tyres and ...:) I am sure I will eventually get it - probably when it comes out on SuperHits decades later :D
