There is something very wholesome about SNK devs and SF devs continuing the legacy of them being joined in how their games function and practically innovating off of eachother. In alot of ways Street Fighter and SNK are like sister series

[@seanmcbay]

Yup. It’s a great era for fighting games.

[@system331]

Fighting game community really can enjoy when snk and capcom make great games. They all feel so different. Much needed for quality variety

[@hudysonsestari8228]

More like brothers, sisters are generally jealous of each other.

[@Fate263]

Well, when you consider how Fatal Fury began... that may be more true than we realize.

[@neruneri]

I adore that they're a bit closer as companies now too, with how SF6 is getting Fatal Fury characters as DLC. I don't think it's crazy to say that it's likely for Garou to get some SF characters too. And like Max has said elsewhere, if all of this goes well that's the first step to getting a new versus game. Finally feels like it's on the table as a possibility again at least.

[@dookieshoes3585]

He wasn’t lying, it does look even better than the trailers

The sudden camera zooms and accompanying echoey splash sound style for KOs are such a great old Art Of Fighting callback: I get nostalgic for that exact thing and have been wishing for a modern game to nod to this cool presentation a little harder than KOF. Wonder if old Fatal Fury had the same thing, but AOF is where I remember these simple impactful moments from. Old school SNK feel being kept alive beautifully 😄

[@brainofjtd]

The classic zoom effect is why I like to play around with KOF12. It’s not a good release but I already own it so dicking around in that game for novelty sake is fun

[@000mjd]

[@StriderRyu7]

I think a new AOF entry is in development,IIRC.

[@king_lvr]

The shift from input difficulty to making the game more mechanically complex sounds like a really good choice. Also, the artstyle looks really pretty in actual 4k quality. This feels like a really good game for fighting game fans.

[@PauloLz]

As a FHD pleb, i really don't like the artstyle, it looks ugly with it's unnecessarily saturated colors...

[@poisonjam4564]

I feel like Project L is somehow responsible for this. Project L developers were really smart and took all contemporaneous takes on what makes modern fighting games feel off and updated them; now, everything new on most recent fighting games follow their guidelines. As Max said regarding to Terry's reveal on Smash: "Aw, man, this is why Smash it way too good. It's because they give a shit. They like, care, you know? This is all fighting games fan want, that Smash fans get. (..) Just to see the developers give a shit"

[@LuminescentShine]

​@@poisonjam4564I wouldn't call them fighting game fans if they only want simple controls

[@Longtimec]

@@LuminescentShine oh here we go lol bro of course they can still be fighting game fans and want simpler controls. We gotta move on at somepoint and I have been playing Fgs for decades.

[@weirdo911aw]

when will people realize that input difficulty is part of the balance of the game and is a crucial part of risk-reward? There's a reason combos are not exciting in recent FGs, and that we will never have another "evo moment 37" in modern FGs. That is just the simple and inevitable tradeoff of making FGs more "accessible"

[@aqgpandemic5406]

Admittedly about power geyser being qcf qcf p, it's that way in the original Garou as well. Every characters super in that game is qcf qcf punch or kick, the exceptions are characters with unique desperation moves like Rock or Dong Hwan; so making those standardized makes sense

[@OrochiSP]

I was looking through the comments trying to find someone else that knew this :D

[@GuntanksInSpace]

This is correct lol. Dong, Marco has triple Quarter circles for their old hidden supers, Jenet has the Just Defend into ABC, and Gato has the dp+A+B rekka thing IIRC Otherwise, supers were universal yea

[@condescending28]

[@RaitoADV]

One thing that I feel might be confusing for some new players is the Revving Up mechanic. Not because it's hard to understand, but rather because it's presented in a way that makes it look like it's a good thing to do. The gauge fills up (something that is usually attributed to good things or resources in fighting games), the "Revving Up" message looks more like a "Keep going" message than a warning, and it doesn't help that the slogan of the game is "Rev it up! Unleash your fury!".

[@king-kd4yb]

yep

[@burnedpotato4374]

Well said , i dont play snk at all. Play alot of street fighter and originally i thought it was a good thing

[@condescending28]

They'll realize it after a few rounds if they have some awareness that it isn't a good thing to over heat. It's going to say Over Heat.

[@RaitoADV]

@@condescending28 Yeah, but it shouldn't really be like that in the first place. It's unnecessarily confusing.

[@spoonimefan]

Agreed. Until Max explained in this video, I thought it was similar to SFIV's Ultra Meter or something due to graphical presentation. The only other meter I can remember visually like this is the Stun Meter from SF3. (Granted, there are *a lot* of FG's I'm not familiar with.) Here the color is yellow, which is also associated with the Super Meter *that the Rev Gauge is connected to*. This visually implies a connection with something *you want* to fill. And when the Rev Gauge *is* full, it then affects a different meter visually disconnected from it at *the top* of the screen. And this one goes *down* as your condition gets worse. It feels counterintuitive. 🤷 That said, as someone else pointed out, once you know about it and its properties and spend time with the game you can (almost subconsciously) remember Rev Gauge = bad.

[@gabrielcormier2096]

Glad Marco isn't called Butts anymore.

[@Fizzlan]

Same lol (my name’s also Marco lol)

[@Illumina_Blade]

Garou without Dong and Butt makes me a little sad.

[@pablocasas5906]

I'm also glad that SNK corrected the spelling on Marco's surname, in previous games his surname was referred as "Rodríguez", but Marco's is Brazilian and in Portuguese his surname is supposed to be spelled "Rodrigues"

[@PauloLz]

@@pablocasas5906 Not to mention "Marco" isn't really that common of a name here in Brasil, it's usually Marcos.

[@SpiffyTrousers]

I mean... yeah. Glad they changed it back. But also, my buddies and I would occasionally have long runs of back-to-back Butt-only matches in Mark of the Wolves. We'd call it "Mark of the Butts." Can't really do that now. 😢

[@OwainVEVO]

i can feel it, this is gonna be SNK's BIG game sales wise in the modern era

[@TheRambler]

Considering Capcom announced 2 SNK characters for SF6, I feel the same

[@rheawelsh4142]

Especially now with the numbers sf6 and tekken 8 brought in, the audience is larger than its been in years

[@pablocasas5906]

I hope CotW can sell well, but I'm not expecting Street Fighter or Tekken numbers, much less expecting it to sell as many copies as Mortal Kombat. While SNK's games are popular in various regions like Latin America, China, South Korea and the Middle East, most of their popularity comes from the arcade versions, and plenty of people in some regions played pirated versions at that. But to be fair, if the game reviews well, has a decent amount of fighter in its launch and SNK gives it enough publicity, City of the Wolves could sell as well as Guilty Gear: Strive. It'll also help the fact that the game will come out in all major consoles, that the PS4 is included and perhaps it could come out on Nintendo's next console as well.

[@alsh5119]

[@Xerachiel]

Terry's Geyser already was ⬇↘➡x2 in the original Garou. I can say 99% of the regular supers were standarized into that motion too in the original. Only the "hidden" supers had different inputs (and Tizok's grab super iirc)

[@pablocasas5906]

I play Mark of the Wolves from time to time and Terry's Power Dunk is also different in Mark of the Wolves, in other Fatal Fury and KoF games, except for Real Bout 2 and KoF '99, it was ⬇↘➡x2 + kick, but in MotW it was →➡↘⬇x2 + kick

[@guigondi7671]

This game looks like it finished the art style that KoFXIV started.

[@SilentiumCivis]

That crush system is actually amazing & might be a new favorite mechanical among all current fighting games.

[@hoovybeast0594]

14:44 In Garou MOTW, Power Geiser is double qcf punch. Most/all supers in MOTW are double qcf

[@BioTroy]

I also happened to notice Terry's hair not clipping as much on his jacket compared to the last build. I think this game is setting up to be extremely polished by the time it launches and I'm so excited for it!

[@ODDiSEE_]

That transistion was godly

[@JusRed48]

One thing I really hope the devs catch onto is that tracking the rev gauge is actually not very easy or intuitive. SF6 drive gauge being a few bars with no numbers or anything is way easier to track than a 0-100% half-circle meter. The clarity of this can really be improved on.

[@renren47618]

It should be Ryu and Ken or Ryu and Chun Li. Ken would be nice to make the pairing with Terry, but Ryu and Chun Li would make more sense.

[@pablocasas5906]

With Terry and Mai's inclusion in Street Fighter 6, I can see a SF character included in City of the Wolves' roster, though if I had to pick one character I'd add Makoto from Street Fighter III

[@zenofthezealous1582]

God I feel like Just Defenses should be kinda the standard for parries in fighting games going forward. Perhaps not the effect for each game but the input for performing it Timing a back (block) input just seems REALLY obvious to do when you think “how do i parry something control-wise” I know people will treat it as gospel and it can’t do no wrong. But I felt even something like SF 3rd strike’s parry system while it was a VERY GOOD one was inherently more not beginner friendly in the fact of the risk of getting blown up timing a forward input TO parry

[@ckorp666]

true SF old heads will never admit that anime fighters got something right

[@saltyluigi4011]

lmaoooo are you complaing that parries are risky because you tap FORWARD???

[@zenofthezealous1582]

@@saltyluigi4011Parries are always inherently risky by nature no matter the input. You’re sacrificing a stout defense for the chance in most cases to counter-attack someone off a perfectly timed parry. I more-so say 3rd Strike and in turn to a degree Tekken 8’s Low parry are of some more risk because you have to make the conscious decision to forgo blocking for a chance to parry by doing either a perfectly timed forward input or Down-Forward input for each respective game. I just feel naturally if you already blocking the logical thought process would be “If I time my block perfectly that should be a kind of parry of something. Like how Just Defends are here. They seem less risky by comparison in my thought process to the parries listed earlier

[@stevesteve0521]

It’s been a standard since samurai shodown 2, just for whatever reason games did not want to utilize it

[@supremeleadersnoke1167]

@Maximilian Dood the Super Move level 1 and 2 almost in their entirety were like this in GAROU( if I remember correctly only Tizoc had a 720 type of grab super ): QCFx2 + P / QCFx2 + K for level 1 and QCFx2 + HP / QCFx2 + HK for level 2 . Only hidden suppers had different input... so they are staying true to original game. But also hearing you that QCFx2 + P + HP is hidden super move is very nice since it is easy input and then more people can have access to more characters rather than some 720+P or something. Anyways great review! :D

[@w1nch3ster1]

I've been going through the Fatal Fury, KoF, and Art Of Fighting collections and you can really see a lot of the elements that made those so visually aesthetic, even to this day present here. The large detailed characters with top tier animations and the bold, crunchy audio when you land a hit. The camera movement and zooms. I'll be honest I've mostly sat out of the SNK 3D outings as aesthetics are extremely important to me in a FG. I think this looks gorgeous. Terry and Rock look dope.

[@TevorTheThird]

I don't mind the standardized super commands. I'll miss the variety and will always fondly remember learning Raging and Rising Storms with Geese Howard... but it's also nice to just pick up a new character and known how to do a move. You still gotta learn when and why after all. BUT~!!! I do wish they had gone with og Power Geyser instead of double fireball. Not for nostalgia, of SNK identity and flavor, but rather simply because I think the motion is much easier and intuitive for new players to learn. The upside to double fireball is that it applies to other games as well. But for someone who is totally new to fighting games? Quarter circle back, half circle forward is a much smoother and easier motion to learn. Plus psychology wise it stands more seperate from the double qcf since it's two seperate motions instead of a doubling of a motion you're learning to do for different results. Plus it can't conflict with DPs, etc. Wackier things aside, I really think the "standard" SNK motions of this and towards, HCF, are just better inputs then double qcf. But meh. This works too.

Speaking about voice acting, I think it's pretty cool that City of the Wolves is the first major SNK with English voice acting, there were some attempts in the past with the Maximum Impact games, but I don't really count those. I wish SNK could dub CotW into Neutral Spanish and Portuguese, but I think that despite SNK's popularity in LatAm, they still want to capture the attention of the U.S. audience first, not to mention that dubbing a game into multiple languages is very expensive, Mortal Kombat is the only major fighting game that is dubbed into various languages since MKX, and that includes Latin American Spanish

Defensive mechanics getting shine in a modern fighting game sounds so refreshing 😌

[@Fools_Requiem]

nice transition into the intro theme

[@Overdoseplus]

Hopefully Freeman makes a comeback I like the rekkas and counter super.

Man this game is so pretty. I really wish this game was out this year. SF6 was my first real fighting game I've put time into and each time I see footage of this game, it gets me just as excited as I was before SF6 launched.

SNK is back, oh yeaaah!!

[@lordjimbo2]

Boy, Rock and Terry are really distinct design-wise.

Max, this is the first time I've even heard of this game. I am so drawn into the precision of it and the way it looks.. I physically want my hands on this game to constantly test, jealous you played and am GLAD. You showed it.

I think this is going to be my first 3D SNK fighting game. It's looking really damn good.

I did enjoy the power geyser input. Its more fun to do than just double fireball.

[@chandlercollins806]

This is the prettiest game I’ve ever seen!

[@jaysonbanlawi5501]

real Terry and real timeline came back 😁

[@Marik248]

No cap, for a moment from the thumb I thought that Rock was an alternate costume of Dante 😅

[@hyperventalated]

I hope you post those matches soon! Im very interested in analyzing them. This game looks amazing!

[@J-gritty]

That's his combo from KOFXV ❤🎉
