Might be talking out of my butt here, but I think Zeipher actually FIXED a lot of OSes in his SF4 remix mod by doing something like that.
Anyway, as far as my actual opinions on the game go:
As a Street Fighter player, I like this game. I like it a lot, actually! It rewards what I think SF should reward and I like the way oki works. I think the V Trigger system is cool (I also think KI's instinct mode is better though). I think it fixed a lot of SF4's problems. There's still stuff wrong with it but it's DIMPS so if the game actually rewards what I want to reward that's a huge win. I wasn't expecting it to be perfect, I don't think anyone that plays games Capcom makes post 2009 was either.
Basically if SF5 was under "Capcom UN fun negotiations for post 2009 fighting game" I got everything I wanted except "fast walk speed". That's good enough.
As a tournament organizer, I hate this game. The UI is a clusterfuck, it lacks basic tournament standard features, and it has bad legacy controller support.
As someone that expects basic, common sense features in fighting games, I don't like this game. It's kind of a joke that there's slowdown in a lot of stages (we can't switch to another console to fix that issue, 10 more years of training mode!) no tap to select buttons on character select screen, you have to set tap to pause GLOBALLY so when I play training mode it just annoys me, rather than implementing it like that one other game that did it right. You know the one.
I think people complaining is justified as long as it's about the right stuff. The issues I mentioned are HUGE problems. For people complaining that there are "not enough modes" or "why less character than 4?", I think most of those complaints are pretty silly to anyone that plays fighting games seriously. Story mode missing at launch is kind of a joke though.
I guess at the end of the day I still like Capcom and their games, but I continue to have to lower the bar for expectations of their products in terms of features, and even then they don't meet them. If all those things I mentioned weren't issues, I would praise this game a lot and have nothing but good things to say. But since they are issues, even though I do like the gameplay, the game is leaving a sour taste in my mouth right now.
The game launched like this because we all bought it anyway (or didn't, apparently, looking at those sales numbers).
