give a starving man an apple and he'll say he wanted an orange
I appreciate you approaching this topic level-headedly, instead of with sarcasm, smugness, or rudeness.
Yeah, on the surface she has some really good stuff time will tell though! That super is sooo hard to punish though x_xI just finished a set with @Icky using Fukua. She definitely needs work, but she's totally viable. The j.HK > j.HP loop as a CH is a nightmare for Big Band. Also, BFF Super is hella stupid with its invincibility. And somehow her standard cmd grab beats out meaty grabs (I think).
I'm fine with Fukua as she is, but I also welcome any balancing Mike may do to her over time, since the animation polish isn't happening (Mike said it himself, so please stop bringing that up). All we can hope for at this point is gameplay/balance tweaks.
I'm sure you can explain me in detail how these two have anything to do with what I wrote.
I didn't complain much, I welcomed each character. And I actually liked some of the clones, Dr. Mario was much better than Mario, imo.
It's more like you give a starving man a piece of cake, and then, thinking that's probably not enough food for him to get by with, you take a big dump, smear your poop on the cake and say "Well, it's more now! Be happy!"
This made me laugh out loud
It is not like that. But that is funny.
I'm okay w/ a Filia/Fukua team. Fukua's saving grace with me is that she doesn't seem as ADHD as Filia, and she lacks an airdash... Which I feel, combined with her fireball, changes her gameplan entirely.
Let's keep the metaphor train going.
At the same time, you were allowed to pick both Iori/Orichi Iori, Ryu/Evil Ryu, Akuma/Shin Akuma, and Rugal/God Rugal in Capcom vs SNK 2.
I mean we let Flavor Flav get away with wearing a clock and viking hat. You could make a pretty mean necklace/equalizer out of a diamond and a nice thick chain.
Kimlihn*Robo Fortune was originally a joke from a stream (think it was the va story mode run?) where Danielle did the "beep boop meow" bits. It becoming a recurring inside joke for SG community.
Eventually it got big enough noise for a possible alternate voice pack for Ms.Fortune if funding goal being passed happened. Then things went a step further and Lab 0 decided instead to make a separate character robo fortune remixed from Ms.Fortune who would be substantially cheaper to make then a new character due to reused assets. Note that Robo Fortune similar to Fukua started as a joke and Lab 0 sees Fukua as good practice for Robo Fortune.
The point being is that the joke origin obviously wasn't a deterrent for Lab 0 for making another character. The "it will lose the funny if treated serious" argument is invalid because of the upcoming Robo Fortune existence. The only key difference between the two is one "joke" character has funding behind it while the other one was something done in spare time that didn't hinder other SG production.

Edit: fixed with right VA.
Skullgirls releases a clone character -> Everyone (almost) is hype
She's the best Joke of all time, and not only would the Joke itself get ruined by making her a real character, you'd also be blatantly stating that a character that was tossed together in 3 days for free is good enough to stand next to the rest of the SG chars. What the shit is L0 even working so hard for, and why did we donate $829829? With that money, they could make 50 Fukuas instead of 5 new characters.
I don't think I ever talked about move utility. The most I did was talk about how her moves looked, not so much how they function. Though if you can point it out to me in the post I'll gladly take it out. I can't seem to find it, and I certainly have no intention of arguing that stance as it's a position I don't hold in the first place.Flotilla said:
"The only key difference between the two is one "joke" character will be up to par qualitywise with the rest of the cast while the other one was something scrapped together in 3 days worth of free time." What an irrelevant distinction, really!
That wasn't specifically towards you since you presented a different argument. It was more towards the other people who stated the above argument here.
