@WiltonRoots Imagine what it would have been like in the days of the SNES/Genesis if we'd actually all been on the Internet using "social" media and gaming sites like this. . . .

This is the world we now live in, and I'm just using it best I know how to make a point regarding something I actually care about. I absolutely want a new Streets of Rage game. I was just playing the Sega 3D Classics 3DS version of Streets of Rage on my Oculus Rift the other day in full stereoscopic 3D and it looked frikin' amazing, so I'm well up for a new game in the series, but one that's actually done right and LOOKS right and feels right and sounds right and so on--otherwise I would rather not have it at all until it can achieve that.

So I'm making my views and opinions and feelings on such a thing be heard because that's what the Internet is in 2019--and I'd rather this game wasn't coming out so there was still a chance I could get the SoR game I think all the fans actually deserve in the next year or two and not now have to wait maybe another couple of generations before we get that chance to actually do it right again. Not that this is going to happen now--so by God I'll let the developers know that I think they've now ruined the chance of us true fans getting a genuinely amazing and true-to-the-originals Streets of Rage game for a long time.

Again, if these guys weren't going to do it properly right then they shouldn't have done it at all imo, and at least left the door open for someone who truly got the games to maybe take a stab in the next year or two. Because this is not Streets of Rage as far as I'm concerned (aesthetically and artistically), but this is all we're not gonna get for a long, long time I expect--and that's why I'm frustrated, and that's why I'm angry, and that's why I'm using the Internet to let myself be heard on such a matter.

I actually think I'm using the Internet and what it's all about here pretty well here to be honest. Because the Internet is not just a place for passively absorbing and accepting whatever is shoveled at you like a mindless drone; the Internet is a place where you can contribute too and also share your views and opinions with others and see what happens, and maybe even affect some change in your own small way.

And I'm actually giving concrete examples of where I think the look of the game has gone a bit wrong and providing examples to show how it could be done much better, and certainly look much closer to the original artist's vision and style of the classic games in the series, so at least I'm being constructive.
