** [=E3=] 2018; what's this? A new ''Devil May Cry'' game!? ......oh god, the art style... it's a sequel to the [[VideoGame/DMCDevilMayCry reboot]]...? Really? Wait a second...! Did that guy just rev... RED QUEEN?? IT'S ''[[VideoGame/DevilMayCry5 DEVIL MAY CRY 5]]''!!! But where's Dante?? Where is... wait, who's that riding towards the screen on a motor bike?? *Cue the hero of ''Devil May Cry'' speeding towards the viewer with Reuben Langon's familiar voice yelling "Woohoo! YEEEAAAH!!"*
** The Style System in ''VideoGame/DevilMayCry3DantesAwakening'' was a ScrappyMechanic for some players because it limits options instead of having all styles available at once. Thankfully, ''VideoGame/DevilMayCry4'' gives Dante access to all of his styles and allows the player to swap them in real-time whenever they want, even in the middle of a combo. Lastly, the upgrades no longer require grinding for experience points. These changes make the system much more interesting to exploit, [[DifficultButAwesome even if it's tricky to master]].

* It took years of patches, expansions, quality of life improvements, and gameplay overhauls to make ''VideoGame/StreetFighterV'' worth its salt. The gameplay reveal of ''VideoGame/StreetFighterVI'' on the other hand won fans over in minutes, and the following details on its mechanics only kept up the momentum.
** Many rejoiced when it was announced that ''[=SF6=]'' will take place after ''[[VideoGame/StreetFighterIII Street Fighter III 3rd Strike]]''. A common criticism of [[VideoGame/StreetFighterIV the last]] [[VideoGame/StreetFighterV two games]] -- but ''[=SFV=]'' in particular[[note]]with the ''Street Fighter III'' series being a ContestedSequel that was much later VindicatedByHistory, more players were willing to give ''Street Fighter IV'' a pass for indulging in ''VideoGame/StreetFighterII'' nostalgia, especially since ''SFIII'' put most of that cast [[PutOnABus on a bus]][[/note]] -- was setting everything [[AnachronicOrder before]] ''SFIII'', which not only made the continuity confusing but [[StatusQuoIsGod also contributed little to the progression of the world and characters]].
** Luke's visual design in ''SFV'' was polarizing upon reveal, particularly his hair which looked very awkward with the game's hyper-stylized textures. His new design in ''[=SF6=]'' greatly streamlines his haircut, being more of a basic comb over, and is also better rendered with the RE Engine's hair physics.
** After many lamented ''SFV''[='s=] absence on the UsefulNotes/XboxOne, as it was only on [=PlayStation=] and PC, ''[=SF6=]'' will be released for the [[UsefulNotes/XboxSeriesXAndS Xbox Series X|S]] alongside the aforementioned [=PlayStation=] consoles and PC.
** ''SFV'' [[ContestedSequel had been very polarizing among the fanbase]] due to its various attempts at "simplification", actively trying to make the game easier for newer players. This was particularly reflected in the mechanics, in which they "trimmed the fat" from previous games, which many believed removed elements of depth and nuance from the gameplay. The game was also heavily criticized for its lack of reliable defensive options in a game where offensive pressure was very strong. The new Drive System in ''[=SF6=]'' is essentially a love letter to the fans for all the dedication they've put into the series, as it effectively allows players to use ''every single definitive mechanic from every past game, both offensive and defensive'': [[VideoGame/StreetFighterAlpha Alpha Counters]], [[VideoGame/StreetFighterIII Parries]], [[VideoGame/StreetFighterIV Focus Attacks (including Dash Cancels)]], and [[VideoGame/StreetFighterV heavily enhanced EX Special Attacks]], all as part of one single resource via the Drive Gauge. As shown through many characters' movesets, V-Triggers and V-Skills from ''SFV'' also return, now as a part of the default character movesets (both as special moves and as super arts).
** The emphasis on the street fighting aspect of the game, [[ArtifactTitle which had been downplayed]] over the course of ''SFIV'' and ''SFV'', was met with near-universal praise, adding to the game's style and unique aesthetic.
** The character redesigns for returning fighters like Ryu, Chun-Li, and Guile have been received positively, after some fans complained about the designs in ''SFV'' [[ItsTheSameSoItSucks not straying too far from previous games]]. Conversely, Juri's new design that harkens back to her ''SFIV'' outfit has been ''very'' well received, especially after her radical redesign for ''SFV'' divided fans for straying so far from the original.
** The punch, kick and special move hit sound effects in ''SFV'' were noted as being underwhelming and a little “splashy” when compared to previous iterations — particularly the hard punch sound effect, which lacked the usual satisfying snap. ''[=SF6=]’s'' hit sounds have been beefed up considerably, sounding much more dramatic and, well …punchy.
** One thing the previous game was criticized for was having extremely lacking single-player content, especially when it first launched. Possibly in response, this game includes a WideOpenSandbox in the form of World Tour mode.

* You know what I haven't played since I was I kid? Those games made by Creator/HumongousEntertainment. [[NostalgiaFilter Those were awesome]]! It's a shame that [[KeepCirculatingTheTapes I can't find anymore copies of those games]], and even if I did, [[NoBackwardsCompatibilityInTheFuture I wouldn't be able to play them on my new computer]]. What's that? They're being imported to UsefulNotes/{{Steam}}? I've got to open a Steam account, NOW!

** Upon release, the game got some mixed reception due to sparse content and technical issues in the game's online mode. Then, to the utter ''shock'' of both the ''Bomberman'' fanbase and Konami's former fans, Konami let the fans know that they weren't leaving the game to rot by almost immediately getting to work on patches that addressed the online mode's technical issue, along with DLC including new stages and characters (characters that include Bomberman versions of [[VideoGame/{{Gradius}} Vic Viper]], [[VideoGame/{{Castlevania}} Simon Belmont]], and ''[[Franchise/SilentHill Pyramid Head]]''), which they then released '''''for free'''''. Both the fanbase and hatedom flipped their lids, and in the good way.
