Fighting/smash clones aren't for the general public, if they get any traction its because of the prizing in events, only very autistic people enjoy playing these for extended periods of time.
You can't compete with Smash's roster at all so stop trying to make mismatched crossover rosters that don't appeal to the fans, and you can't get Meleegays to play anything else so stop trying to cater to them.
Smash clones have to realize that appealing to Meleegays is pointless. They want to yiff with Fox on Final Destination on a CRT until the end of time, no matter what they say.
You're thinking of Nickelodeon All Star Brawl, Multiversus didn't go the full wavedash autism route.
The problem multiversus did have is that the game is balanced around 2v2, so you either had to bother a friend every time you wanted to play, play woth a moronic PC AI,or play with randos.

and they fricking got away with it, too
Game just isn't very good. It feels floaty and shit, it's too complicated for its own good too. On a personal level, I hate what they did for Shaggy too.
Worse physics than brawl. Characters were floaty as frick and basically never died. Doesn't help that there's move staling in a game with like 8 moves per character.
battlepass grind and monetization grind killed it >first battlepass is super easy >make the next one a lot harder burning out a lot of people >selling costumes for 20 dollars, most other fighting games sell them for 5 dollars max >gamebalance was never good
The gameplay was ass, it's annoying to see people say muh roster was the reason people stopped playing as if good games need active support to keep their communities. Multiversus' issue wasn't that Joker or Daffy weren't in, the problem was that it was floaty as shit with no punish game and everyone could get by just by mashing dodge after every attack.
If they want people to keep playing it they need to add weight to the gameplay, as it is now it's like you're fighting on a stage made of soap in 0.4 gravity.
>online doesn't work >balance is terrible >events and battlepass are extra grindy and they made it so you have to grind even more >costumes are ludicrously expensive >people stop caring because they aren't adding more characters after several months or fixing the online >"uh it was open beta. we're closing it. bye."
and it sucks because I was looking forward to playing Witch or Beetlejuice
maybe they'll pull it off and fix it, but people probably won't care by then
I liked it initially, but the lack of support, not fighters or stages but fricking support/bug fixing/updates, was frustrating. Then the new fighters very quickly were substantially power creeping over launch day. I think them taking the game down, while absolutely embarrassing, was the right call to make and I'm optimistic they can re-launch much stronger.
The release was supposed to be just a beta.
But it was so successful that the developers couldn't shut down the test, upper management wanted to start farming all those players.
Which blew up on their faces, couldn't make Content fast enough so it felt complete
The beta finished. It's getting a full release next year

Smash clones never take off
Yet another GaaS game with barely any content and an unhinged MTX store

that goes for every fighting game ever

I went back to playing Brawlhalla

Not enough reindog, thus not enough revenue, thus taken down. Sad. They should've given people what they want. (More reindog)
I wonder who is behind these posts...
It's Reindog.
Caught green pawed
I don't like having to log in and grind dailies just to unlock characters.
Shit got old fast.
The marketing budget ran out.

I'm having reindog main withdrawals

This. Multiversus is basically just hit trading until someone dies at 200%.
Stupid decisions killed it

Don't forget that you had to go out of your way to even do local matches, rather than just having it as a regular option.

They didn't spend enough money on getting streamers to pretend to like it.
