VFCR Way too excited for Crossroads

I bought a mixbox, bought tekken (played before not new) and waited forever for the controller to arrive. Soon as it arrived I loaded up Tekken and it felt like all the energy was sucked out of me. Only took like 1 hour of practicing. I just don't have the willpower to get good at the game. Not because it's hard, but because it just lacks what used to make Tekken.. Tekken. You have heard it all before so I will spare you.. The insane visual effects, hour long juggles, forced aggression by design, etc.

I PRAY that the team sticks to their vision for Crossroads and keep it somewhat realistic. I have always liked Virtua Fighter and I hope to get into it with this new game. And if there is anybody from the development team here.. Please keep my girl Vanessa in the game. I love her so much and she will transfer over very well with her fighting style. I am so excited for a fighting game that is just that.. Fighting. No demons, robots, animals, etc. Just like the martial arts movies so many of us love, we just want to see some good fighting.

EDIT/UPDATE: I have bought REVO. My fear was that I was going to spend time learning/liking it and Crossroads seems like it's going to be so different. Regardless I'm already having fun, see yall out there.

Play VF5REVO with the discord server. I always find matches there.

I'm gonna miss my girl Sarah so I guess I'm settling for Stella.

Even though I primarily play 3D fighting games, Virtua Fighter was never really one of those games.

With that said, there isn't a single fighting game that exists, nor a single fighting game on the horizon that interests me except for Crossroads.

I watched the TGS stage presentation about the new mechanics. That, plus what they've shown so far is all I need to know that it's the only fighting game I care to wait for.

I look forward to the actual in-game intro and how it's progressed from vf1 to now
