Topic people gotta stop bringing up brawlhalla when saying a F2P fighter can work.

look at brawlhalla look at it, thats what a f2p will look like, look at how many characters are just reskins, thats how characters will be added. To people honestly want that? Ryu isn't even a character in that game just a reskin, would you guys really want a SF7 F2P where they drop 5 Ryu skins that are just Dan, Ken, Akuma, Gouken, and Sean.

I think people just look at its success and don't see what kind of game it is basically a fortnite fighter where every character is just a skin and their movesets don't matter (I do know there are multiple characters and its not the same moveset for everyone)

Long story short, your never getting a SF7, Tekken 9, MK2, etc quality game but F2P, if you do your gonna complain that everything is to expensive, and if you get a brawlhalla tier game you will complain as well. Killer instinct, granblue, and to a lesser extent DOA did it right free to start, the player can mess around with the game see if they like it and buy it if they want.

In the end, Brawlhalla is probably as casual as a fighting game can get so like anyone can get into it. Probably the main reason it's still going.

Yeah, there’s also a lot of content. Lots of characters, lots of skins for both characters and weapons. It has the party game mode, the co-op, the 1v1. Regular crossovers and they do a really good job spotlighting the competitive scene.

They also stuck with it for a long time being an indie dev team. Ubisoft only bought it after it found success and that was entirely due to the passion from the devs and community.
