I used to love IV, I sucked, but I loved it...

The general concensus is that this iteration sucks, huh?

It's over simplified and streamlined. Compared to previous SF games the difference between the characters has never been so small.

They all have the same setups, similar combos, similar ways of applying and escaping pressure, and extremely limited fringe styles such as the pressure, footsie and zoning archetypes.

If you enjoy it then that's great, but as a player who used to attend the big SFIV tournaments I stopped playing a few weeks after the scene moved over to SFV.

I don't even mind the extremely easy combos and strings in SFV, but the rest of the game needs to be interesting.

Is there a fix for this on ultrawide monitor's so it doesn't appear stretched?
