Its no different than how it was back in the day with versus fighting. Dead or Alive originally was on Sega's Model 2 and the 5th generation's Sega Saturn and Sony PlayStation versions were even lucky to come remotely close. It was when Team Ninja decided to go console exclusive from Arcade (the first versus fighting franchise to do so that would be mimicked many years later unfortunately with i.e Soul Calibur III, Street Fighter V etc) to Xbox, however it was because at the time the Xbox was very high level to the point that Sega adopted its tech into the Chihiro board (with MUCH more RAM).
The PS4 and Xbox One are sub par PCs (emulating Nintendo's model with Wii, worked wonders for Sony, 80 million+) and PC has emerged due to "performance" but in reality, piracy and free online.
I'm interested in when are they going to announce a JPN Arcade version.
It's been a long time since I posted here and I've seen that I was right about everything by the way since 2012. A new community emerged (very WWE New generation like), the Japanese killed everyone on a consistent basis and elevated the game to a higher level especially when Dead or Alive returned to Arcade. For the few years with this new community, on stream I'm hearing people talk about movement, frames, its great. Tom Lee did a phenomenal job.
Dead or Alive 6 seems to currently be throwing everybody under the bus. Generally competitors hate the meter at this point and more apparently mostly everyone hates the direction of the females. Not all females are created equal. Gaming is fantasy based off reality.

All they needed to was have i.e. outfits C1 - C5 be sanctioned approved by tournament organizers and broadcasters i.e. ESPN, ESL, Red Bull, EVO, etc before release while retaining remnants of the Soft Engine for the females to simulate realistic bounce physics. Trust that they're gonna look very closely at this October's Soulcalibur VI for reactions and truth telling.
Amusing (frustrating?) times are ahead.
