Bummer. How long has it been this way?

Pity that my favorite fighting games get dropped like a hot potato - first Soul Calibre and now (or then) DOA. Maybe I should ask Hello Games to branch out into the fighter genre ;)

They dropped support after one year, so in 2020. After that only ppl/mods/streamers supported it.

Yeah, I need to look into some of those mods. Can we get new costumes via mods?

And what about Team Ninja, are they even in business anymore? Maybe they should just open-source the game if they are abandoning the franchise.

yes, lots of costumes available via modding, some pretty creative designs and some re-skins and older costumes brought back.

Team Ninja still in business yes, sadly they don't care much for DOA as a series as its spinoff gacha game makes much more money than this. They also struggled to find its place with the modern market, stay as a "sexy fighting game" which gets people shun it from events and gets bad press or try to clean up the act and risk loosing the core fans who don't mind fan service. Regardless, their main focus is with other IP's at the moment and the only mention of seeing another main series DOA game is mostly just rumour.

The irony is that there seems to be more demand than ever for "sexy fighting games", now that a large percentage of the gaming industry has been commandeered by the likes of Sweet Baby Inc. Scarcity increases demand.. Just look at Stellar Blade. But IIRC, the original creator who brought us DOA (dude with sunglasses who's name escapes me) is no longer with the company, so maybe they've lost their "vision" for this sort of game.

Well, at least there are mods. I'll have to check them out.

Well, they tried to make it more "tame" so it could join the fighting tournaments at them game convention things (i forget the names of them) and it was still shunned for what it was, so they effectively cut the fan service which annoyed some whilst still failing to attract others, so they got the worst of both sides in the end.
Sadly, as long as the twitter mob exist, any game that isn't GTA which contains anything "sexy" related is surely to be cancelled by the mobs of non-gamers, (ironically) because bouncy boobs is turning their kids into murderers, not their lack of good parenting, oh no, games are. That or its objectifying women (despite males being present with similar costumes)... basically, its the error of cry babies.

Once upon a time, if you didn't like it, you didn't buy it but alas, now its the days of making sure everyone follows you, which in turn puts others of buying it due to not wanting the bad stigma associating with them either.

But yeah, one of the leads (or more?) behind team ninja who oversaw DOA did leave the studio so its certainly just another nail into the sinking coffin, if we lucky they might try their luck at another game but only time will tell. Sadly, like most things now days, they have a gacha game robbing people blind every day for their cash, why make a AAA game and only make a few million when you can make that every month with a low effort mobiles game?

But yeah, mods are good fun, that true way to enjoy these games for sure.

Normally, I didn't mod the games, but for DOA6, I can say, the mods are AWESOME! It' s very easy to use, and you didn't even need to exit the game to change to a mod costume.
And there are many great costumes, some of which is inspired by DOAXVV costumes.

You are welcome! Also you need to download the Redelbe 3.0, which you can found here:
https://www.nexusmods.com/deadoralive6/mods/70
You can probably download it from an other site, if you don't want (or don't have) and account in this page.

They focused in souls-like games like nioh and more.

Back to the question of DLC (specifically character unlocks) - does the DLC ever go on sale, or are the prices locked now that TN has moved on? The mods are scratching my costume collecting itch, but there are a couple of characters I'd like to get (but not at the silly default price).

Sometimes it goes on sale (mostly on major sales, but not every time). But it's still quite pricey.

Woah woah woah. Twitter users post NSFW art. You shouldn't just assume Twitter hates lewd stuff.
