Max has posted a video discussing fighting game companies and them lowering the skill barrier. If you haven’t heard of this it comes down to game mechanics that are easier and removing things that require high skill in order to expand you player base. On attempt at this are auto combos which you have seen in The King Of Fighters XIV as well as Blazblue.
Max makes the argument there is no point in doing this. He says this says it has never worked in widening your games reach. If you remove mechanics in order to make your game easier to learn for new players you also made it easier to master for die hard and pros alike. If you are interested then you can check out the video below.
