Why do most anime fighting games just suck?

[Air Raider *EDF EDF*]

Just curious, most anime games are just awful.

low budgets, and they're usually rushed out to fit a season release.
look at the difference between the newly released trailer for dbz sparking zero to the trailers for this, aside from the studios being different, theres a clear quality difference that is usually caused by the games being rushed. series that have ended like dbz and naruto (although not recently, with the storm connections release) get to relax a bit with development time since there really isn't a hard "hype end" to hit, whilst jjk cursed clash is clearly riding on the hype of jjk s2.

that being said, I have pre-ordered it and will be stupidly expecting it to be different.

they're all made by bandai namco and they are awful at managing the dozens of anime IPs they get their hands on. jjk, one punch man, my hero academia, demon slayer, dbz, one piece, sao (at least they made it a jrpg, just not a good one) are all passionless cash grabs. they made naruto ninja storm and it did decently well, so they decided to take the exact same formula and slap it onto every future game they ever make. dragon ball fighterz was the only good game cause by some miracle they decided to go with 2D and it got pretty popular.

Demon slayer was sega/cc2 and was decent. Like a samurai storm game. The upcoming sparking zero looks good. It varies, most are ♥♥♥♥ yes. But there are gems and potential gems in the rough.

mb i forgot bandai just provide the license and arent the actual devs & that demon slayer was published by sega. i am really excited for the new dbz game though. spike chunsoft make some of my favorite games so i have a lot of hope for it.

OPM, DS, my hero, storm connections, JJBAASBR
theres more that i forgot
usually these games are fun, but they arent good fighting games at all, which kills it practically. A fighting game without a community is like a body with no brain, it literally cannot function.
