Keep playing SF4, sfv forces you to buy dlc characters, there is also less defensive options. That's the plan for now. Will get SFV Arcade Edition eventually which includes the dlc characters but not until it drops in price. I guess thats ok, because with AE you have 28 characters to farm FM with, but you can only farm FM in character story mode, trials and demonstration. You only get 50FM for player match wins, and from what i've seen in ranked match, you only get 100FM for winning. Its quite bad becaus3 everything requires FM to unlock. I'm downloading SSF4AE on my ps3 now, im craving a fighter these days, and the last time i played SF4 i was a total scrub who had trouble with Seth on normal mode. SFV for me is a weird case for me, it tries to please a lot of people, but it fails, miserably. The pros don't like where its going, and the casual ship has already sailed in 2016.

Sure, why not? That's what winnersdontusedrugs wanted after all, and I support his decision. I've never played SF4, but I have to say that the additions it made are underwhelming; none of the new characters (save for the turkish oil wrestler) struck me as inspired, and I've heard a rumor that Capcom decided to make at least one of the new characters even more generic before the game was released (originally according to rumor Abel was originally a kid, but his design was changed into an uninspired adult wrestler for whatever reason). I've also heard that the gameplay is much more tailored towards casual gamers compared to SF2 and especially 3. Much of the criticism seems directed at the speed of the game, which is supposedly "too slow", although I can't confirm this because I haven't played it. Honestly the gameplay looks fun to me, but then again I'm not a hardcore SF fan so my opinion shouldn't matter. I remember being so pissed by how much Nintendo slowed down the gameplay of the Smash series with the release of Brawl, so I can totally understand the frustration longtime fans have with the changes made to SF4 and Capcom trying to decease the skill gap with the series. I've heard Street Fighter 5 was much worse, but I haven't played that one, either. I wonder if there will ever be a Street Fighter 6, and what it will play like. The additions to the Street Fighter roster were interesting for the most part, big exception being Rufus. So whoever told you that probably just dislikes Street Fighter.At the same time, Street Fighter 2 wasn't really tailored, it just kinda came out, so it's hard to tell their intentions before it was a thing already. But yes, there are differences that may make players prefer Third Strike over SF4 or SF5. Still, I'd say they're all great games, and in the end being a casual in any of them won't really get anyone far; gotta git really gud! I know this is late, but nobody told me that. That's my own opinion. Rufus is a good example of horrible character design, but I also found the other new additions like Abel to be extremely generic.
