xbox exclusive

No sequel 6 years later.
Isaiah Reyes
Also Windows 10 exclusive on release, back when Windows 10 was even worse than what it is now.
Aaron Gray
everything from season 2 and beyond
Grayson Bell
isn't it on PC now?
OST is sick too
youtu.be
Logan Evans
released exclusively on the system that was the least popular among FG players
the game itself was great though, i'd argue that it's the only AAA fighting game ever made.
Thomas Price
Delet this
Jaxson Rogers
It's honestly one of the best fighting games ever made, hope they make a sequel.
Hudson Robinson
>what went wrong?
Don't you mean WHAT WENT FUCKING RIGHT??
Adrian Garcia
This. It had a good amount of red flags at first.
Ethan Bell
season two had good characters but it is the start of when scope creep started to violently grip the game.
anything past season 3 was hot cancer
Nathaniel Lopez
>bone exclusive
>W10 exclusive
>no Doomguy crossover character
>stopped being exclusive too late when everyone lost interest
Julian Scott
>scope creep
What does that mean? What was bad about the S3 characters? I picked the game up once it was all done so everyone feels normal to me.
Jaxson Diaz
Gargos was dope though
Mason Martin
hisako a cute

Kevin Williams
RAAM was fun too
Michael Rivera
>happy embarrassed girl curling hair over her finger
this is my fetish
Dylan Diaz
Holy shit, I forgot about based RAAM. I will never forget how he was released the day he was announced AND he was free on his first week.
Eli Harris
the game was much much tighter at the end of season 1-2.
because they wanted to add more characters they needed to keep balancing others and adding more mechanics to facilitate everything.
they have reworked characters a number of times and most of the cast is a shell of what they used to be.
gargos is cool as shit. shame he couldn't have been added when the game was better
Juan Perry
He made me start using Grapplers in other games
Aiden Scott
remember what could have been
Bentley Price
Xbox exclusivity literally killed the game. By the time it came to PC and people could play it no one cared.
It also didn't help that on top of it it was exclusive to the microsoft store for a while before it came to steam.
Isaiah Price
For the game itself? Nothing, best fighting game this gen, period. Should've been multiplatform though.
Jeremiah Walker
I didn't even know it was on steam and I consider it my main platform
Luis Torres
The game is great, best fighter from this gen easily. Problem was that microsoft was retarded and didn't invest on SFV. The FGC always latches on whatever console runs the games better, so when the biggest name in the entire community is an exclusive to a console that is already everyone's darling, you basically lose by default. Game is fantastic but without the support of the FGC it might as well be dead. It's last years were amazing tho.
Zachary Barnes
It was based, but it was on Xbox for the majority of its lifetime. Bought a console just for it
Camden Gray
She still has a fuckable body
Aiden Thompson
>Darkstalkersfags still seething that KI did the monster fighter right while their deviantart shit will never get a new game

Calm down with that exaggeration.
Isaac Bell
Hopefully the sequel just releases on PC at the same time.
Dylan Collins
Mick Gordon had to leave and some hack had to replace him
Josiah Perry
Village of Whispers is really good.
Logan Fisher
It was Celldweller, iirc
He did okay, obviously not going to match it perfectly, but he kept the tone relatively well and none of the new tracks really stick out as terrible
Carter Hughes
That and Spinal's song is pure gold
Matthew Allen
So much of it went right. I may have been shit with him, but Cinder was my nigger. Also Maya, Mira, and Hisako are wonderful. Hope we get a sequel.
God, I want Mick back. Fury's Core is my favorite theme, followed by Lycanthropy.
Justin Phillips
A sequel would make me buy an Xbox Two immediately. What other monsters could they add?
Jacob Nelson
Dead game
Carson Sullivan

Aaron Gray
Honestly, all of Season 1 and Season 2 (Outside of Riptor's theme) was perfect

oh, and the soundtrack was great, even if you don't like guitar based music

I hope Microsoft doesn't throw all that away

KI needs to have God-Tier music. It's just a part of its identity at this point
We'll go home one day, bros.
Joseph Fisher
So what you're telling me is that if I never played and picked this up now on pc, would I be able to enjoy this in the lab?
Luis Thompson
I don't think the Steam version has the f2p version. If I remember correctly.
Nolan Phillips
I was just about to just pick it up on ovagames.
Oliver Murphy
Killer Instinct Vs. Primal Rage
Levi Wood
Oh right, this thing. Wonder if they've improved the Win10 version yet...
Parker Torres
Either way, you can lab just fine. Every character has their own uniqueness.
Gavin Sullivan
No f2p on steam, if you've got W10 you can use the free characters, I think Jago and you get Sabrewulf after doing the story mode or something?
If you just mean how easy is it to get into, then it's pretty forgiving with the fancy combo system it has, you can do basic combos with just button special button special etc, and that's easily enough to enjoy the singleplayer stuff
Isaac Thomas
Not much, actually. Best fighter this gen, one of the best made. Netcode is only just being surpassed 6 years after releasing. Great music. Only negatives were xbox exclusive/taking forever to be ported and the community. I think even NRS has less crybabbies than KI did.
Hopefully we get a sequel next gen.
Sebastian Thomas
>reworks
Disgusting
Henry Anderson
Celldweller and Atlas, they did a great job, fuck off.
Hunter Hughes
It had money pumped into it up the ass and was practically a "AAA" game FGC wise. All you have to do to have an EVO game is keep updating or adding new releases.
Caleb Morgan
It wasn't just EVO tho. It had a sincere interest and scene.
Zachary Reed
Too good for this world
Parker Wood
mick's replacements did okay. it's funny to call them shit when the worst song in the game was actually mick's riptor theme. eyedol theme was one of the best if you ask me and the other S3 ones were fine.
Eli Edwards
>eyedol theme was one of the best
My nigger
Joshua Green
t. Hackdweller and hacktlas
Austin Cooper
What makes Celldweller a hack? Never really listened or paid attention to him. I only knew his songs were used in a lot of frag movies
Andrew Jenkins
People who tend to know shit about MS goings on have said it's pretty likely we get a KI 2. The question is who will develop it since Iron Galaxy seems to not be working on it seeing as they're hiring "level designers" and shit.
Nicholas Green
His music is absolute trash. Especially shows in the season 3 ost.
Ayden Taylor
Atlas makes up for it.
Lucas James
Better game than anything on EVO right now.
Angel Green
>Will never Get KI x MK with KIs fighting system and MKs graphics and characters (pre-11)
Joshua Rogers
KI was by far one of the most fun games to spectate. Had the madcap gimmickry of ASW games, but the universal systems were strong enough to follow what the hell was going on even if you weren't all that familiar with the game.
Josiah Lopez
Shadow Lords
Dylan Thompson
>mick's riptor theme
>Mick said he was going to fix it

This is the game that made me get good at fighting games. I was in the top 1K online, never went to a tournament. When is KI2? Never?

What happened to them?
Austin Hill
Nothing besides people calling it shit at launch because they had a beef with the Xbox One.
It's fantastic.
Jeremiah Rogers
I love mick, but everyone could tell he dropped the ball on that one. thankfully he made up for it with the rest of the season.
I remember the aria theme being kind of basic too, but then it got a revamp.
Landon Stewart
Besides the name, it failed at its only job: To actually appeal to people who liked Killer Instinct. It has none of the charm, the oomph, nor the kick (no pun intended) that KI and KI2/Gold had. Character design is overly busy and edgy, music is overdone/overremixed and overall is just a mess. If you still played any of the previous games by 2010 at least yearly, then this game felt nothing like something that would be designed with you in mind. It got slightly better over time, but imho it was doomed from the start.
Matthew Gonzalez
It's honestly better than the classic KI games
Ian Cruz
No, it isn't. It looks, feels, and sounds worse than KI1 and 2.
Brayden Butler
Soon
Jason Nelson
You clearly haven't played the original KI games in forever. They are absolutely unplayable shite.
Hunter Harris
I wish KI had more porn

OP asked what K.I.2013 did wrong and I replied my PoV. I never wrote it's a bad fighting game, so claiming "muh nostalgia" is pointless when your main, primary, selling point is that this is a game part of franchise... yet feels nothing like it. If you change the title, put whatever music you want instead of the remixes that undeniably alluded to the previous games, and change some of the characters names, no one would even suspect this had any relation to Killer Instinct.
Stop being faggily defensive just because I wrote something negative about your sunken cost fallacy game.
Jaxon Clark
Austin Lewis
Easton Wright
Sony fans when Nintendies try to steal their exclusives: waaaah games shouldn't be exclusive to one platform
Sony fans in relation of Xbox One exclusives: fuck MS, all their games should be on PC!
I just can't wait for MS to pull a Kingdom Hearts on the Persona series.
Carter Wood
>sounds
Mick Gordon shits on Robin Beanland.
Lincoln Flores
*should
Carson Barnes
You gotta be one of those Orchid butt worshippers. Nobody gives KI2 this much praise.
Ryder Mitchell
Only things I hate about KI 2013 is some of the character designs. Shit like Orchid blows compared to the original.
Blake Nguyen
Daniel Richardson
Season 3 & 4 characters looked cheap. Monster were arright, but humans were ugly and weird animated. You just knew they were on a tight budget.
Nicholas Carter
Not the OST though. That was awesome
Adrian Phillips
>pc port when?
>years later it finally comes to pc
>Microsoft store exclusive

What did go right?
Ryder Green
The game
Jackson Williams
Is it even alive? i can just use my xbro game share for the season pass they gave for free and just download it on my pc but it's around 50gb or something last time i checked
Logan Collins
>but humans were ugly
Yeah, they tried to go for a mix of 90s comic and more modern. It never quite hit it right but i do appreciate that they tried. The game oozes effort from people trying to find their feet. Shame they never got more chances.
William Gray
In a vacuum, I'd agree. As a remixer of previous games' tunes, I was sorely disappointed.
Never cared much for Orchid. For KI I usually played Glacius or Fulgore at the arcades, and Jago or Sabrewulf in SNES. For KI2 and Gold I stuck with Glacius and Tusk mostly, but I enjoyed Spinal as well.
Cameron Johnson
quit projecting your consolewarfagshit on posts. fighting game fans just literally dont play xbox
Michael Russell
>stop doing what I'm doing right now
The game isn't even Xbox exclusive, it never was.
Jason Green
>windows 10 only
>when windows 10 was not even usable
see pic related. microsoft bought out killer instinct to compete with sf2 being sony only. all of it is nothing but consolewarfagging. its all retarded. but the fact of the matter is, fighting game fans dont play on xbox one. thats not anything but fact. player count for fighting games on xbox consoles are always significantly lower than ps4.
Ayden Adams
>tfw no good Sadira porn
Brandon Harris
Greed and exclusivity claimed another victim. It is (in its current form anyway) a genuinely good game so it's kind of a shame that those in control chose to do the wrong thing in every opportunity where they could have done the right thing, all because they felt their noses were leading them to money.
Sebastian Stewart
>stopped being exclusive too late when everyone lost interest
?????????????????
Jacob Hall
you can stop posting now
x360 was the console of the fgc
his point stands exactly as is, the ps4 was the winner since before Killer Instinct.
You're posting for the sake of calling someone retarded.
Fuck off.
Justin Garcia
But's getting a sequel, makeup shit somewhere else.
Connor Thompson
You're really are just a buttmad Sonyfan.
Sorry to see what's happening to your favorite console bro.
Christian Ross
Orchid NEEDS lewds!
Aaron Ross
It went to Steam a bit after the Windows version
Carson Phillips
That tends to happen when you're working on an old as fuck engine that wasn't even developed by the studio working on the game and are on a shoestring budget.
Luis Lewis
No marketing. I don't remember a single trailer. Also no lewds of any of the females.
Jeremiah Jenkins
There are lewds but they aren't that great
Angel Rivera
>x360 was the console of the fgc
>just completely making shit up
Owen Williams
The Xbox had twice as many players in the US than the PS3
Daniel Lee
>the US in its entirety is also the FGC
like i said, retarded.
Nicholas Perry
The only event that used the ps3 was evo because Sony sponsored it everywhere else people played on 360. Was sf5 literally your first fighting game?
Nolan Kelly
Kiw Wu and Orchid have a decent amount. Hisako has a bit but it's more shitty 3d gifs and less horsecock postfight cumbaths.
Nolan Bell
You're just salty that you can't play the best fighting game of this generation on the Shitstation 4. It's ok bro
Isaiah Moore
who the fuck played dead or alive, king of fighters, skullgirls, tekken, blazblue, soulcalibur, aquapazza, p4a, virtua fighter, and arcana heart on xbox? id be fascinated to know. the 360 was the worst console of that generation for fighting games. it infamously has the worst dpad of all time. and 360 fightsticks were simply not as common as ps3 fightsticks, flatout. you're just completely making shit up.
Alexander Wright
I can't even find any of my waifu, Orchid
Ryan Peterson
rule34xxx has at least 180 Orchid pictures.
Jacob Allen
god I love KI, this game is so much fucking fun
Angel Mitchell
in the thumbnail it looks like she is looking towards the right but when you expand it she looks like she is looking at you
Noah Hall
look up pigutao
you're welcome.
Xavier Baker
Spooky
Logan Campbell
honestly the only way KI can still thrive is if MS uses their new Nintendo relationship and port it to Switch
Ryan Young
I know but I wish there was more
Colton Barnes
you cant have more sadira until i get more mira with spinal
Noah Barnes
Don't forget Mira, her damage, and her child-birthing hips.
Sebastian Barnes
>x360 was the console of the fgc
lol no
also fighting games just sell like shit on Xbox, i dare you to find even 1 fighting game on 360 that sold close to the PS3 version
Anthony Butler
They became more fun.
Jackson Ross
Fine
Dylan Gray
360 was literally the standard console for all tourneys on SFIV retard.
Jeremiah King
had an amazing soundtrack for a fighter
Matthew Watson
and yet the community was much smaller and died faster on PS3
also from Super SFIV onward they started using PS3's
youtube.com
Tyler Rodriguez
>tfw no spooky ghost gf to ride your dick like crazy
Zachary Murphy
Nobody was talking about sales except you. Also of course they started using PS3s since by that time a marjority of the tourney players were japs.
Kevin Jackson
Please don't lie to me like this. Killwr instict was my childhood
Ian Perry
There's a rumor that KI2 will be revealed for next gen at E3 this year.
Jace Ortiz
>nut inside hisako
>she uses b+HK to get rid of the spunk
Levi Russell
It's probably getting one, the only evidence of it is that some guys who know about these kinds of things typically have said it's pretty likely. Though based on their recent hirings I wouldn't expect Iron Galaxy to be working on it. No idea who else could work on it since Amazon owns DH. Arcsys could make it look alot prettier but would probably fuck up the mechanics since it's not an anime fighter.
Eli Turner
They did. Season 3 got me to check out Celldweller because of how godlike Tusk's and RAAM's themes were.
Nolan Taylor
Why did you post a video from evo when that was the exception not the rule. Evo used the ps3 version because sony sponsored evo. In 2015 they even went to the 360 version for sf4 at evo because the ps4 version was completely fucked.

James Hall
I wish at least one person would have pulled off Omens bullshit grab that oneshots you at a tourney. I wish more people played Omen in general because he's hilarious to watch.
Austin Wilson
Reminder that Hisako is a 16 year old girl and NOT for lewds

thats for proving my point, retards.

KI will be back. Would be silly to not bring it back. Especially since Mortal Wokeshit11 is a burning dumpster of a game and there really arent any good new fgs
