MODERATORS
AA4 was supposed to be Phoenix-free until Capcom demanded that he be shoehorned back in. Also from what I’ve heard (not sure if it’s true or not) the storyline in Capcom games are supposed to be playable/understandable standalone so there can’t be any arc that lasts more than a single game, so we end up with Apollo having more backstories than fingers.
My opinion is that 3D bad, at least the way they implemented it. Seemed like they wanted to keep the stylized 2D elements while forcing 3D onto it, so we get bizarre expressions like this:

Also feels like they jumped the shark so hard with SOJ, so hard that it’s completely riddled with plot holes. Apparently in literally 1924 Jorjor Binks-land, where the evil dictator can do whatever she wants and make up laws as she goes, instead of executing rebels she lets them accuse her in court and just allows herself to be arrested? Also they execute defense attorneys but apparently none of the characters have ever heard of it.
