Honestly, I'd probably have enjoyed it if the game could run properly on my Rig at release. Granted, I was hoping it'd have some better sanbox elements in comparison to Witcher 3, and it somehow sounds like in a lot of ways they took a few steps back in that regard even.Come on, besides crunch, lies, bad management, etc, CP2077 was not so bad.
Honestly, the MUGEN community has never really been a super tight knit, or well, overly inviting one as a whole, even when I first discovered it, so its hard to say its deteriorated all that much when arguably it even had a bit of a renaissance/resurgence in the last few years or so. Honestly I'm surprised you've even been given much backlash for not releasing said character, as you'd be far from the first I know of to make characters/edits in Mugen, and never release them, but people will always want what they can't have ultimately. The beauty of Mugen though, imo, is that if someone REALLY wanted a character or something to be made for the game that badly, given some dedication its very possible for anyone to do. While its not something I've pursued much, it is one of the communities strengths, and sometimes a weakness in the end, at least when you have so many people collaborating all at once on so many different things. All this without even getting into some of the debacles of edits, credits, and ownership of said edits, as Mugen as a whole has always existed in a very grey area in that sense, that even discounting NSFW content, which has only seemingly muddied the waters further over the years.It's a combination of what both @Fenril and @HangerDanger said honestly, but in the end what triggered it was the MA drama, the general overal detoriation of the MUGEN community as well as people like @derakino999 who think they know it all without ever having contributed anything decent (even just discussion-wise, mind you). Without going into too much detail, I used to strive for what I thought would be best for the community, going as far as to talk to people in powerful positions to appeal to their common sense, only to be bitten in the ass, banned and ignored over some retarded illusion of grandeur, wanting to be the sole "savior of mugen" and in the process destroying it all, not to m
Yes, yes. I have grown very bitter, resentful and negative, I know. But this isn't something our little friend here would ever understand even remotely. It's all just ever "make stuff, give stuff" with these kinda people without regard of things they don't understand and it's sickening.
Also no, releasing an unfinished, unpolished thing goes against my principles. Who do you think I am? CDPR?
Either way. I've seen some good and respectful people around (i.e. not derakino999) and it makes me happy to see that there's still a good core of people that are decent and don't behave like complete ass, in this thread as well as other places. Some people have actually been trying to be helpful and it made me get out of this whole "community bad" mindset at least a little bit. But yeah, enough ranting. New fancy Umbreon when it's done. Whenever that may be.
All in all though, even though MUGEN has definitely hit what feels like another period of stagnation, the overall quality has greatly improved over the years thanks to a few individuals, and their is still great content being made both in the west and the east for it. The stuff over at MA definitely left a sourtaste in most people's mouth's I imagine, and it basically all but ended my interaction with the site, but this community will continue to thrive and improve regardless. Pretty much always has, and until MUGEN is truly dead, or some better engine/tool comes along to replace it, will continue to be its own niche but passionate part of the internet and fighting game community as a whole.
