....Dude, you should work for Capcom.

You say to see it like P4. But if I do, it's even more bullshit, because P4Arena was a completely different game, with nothing to do with P4 beyond the Story Mode, sold at a different date, for different consoles, and even present in Arcades.

P4 is an RPG. P4A is a fighting game. But neither game is part of the other beyond the story. These are 2 different games, with different gameplays, for different playerbases, in different platforms. What you are saying is making 2 different games, with different gameplays designed for very different playerbases, in 1 single game, with the latter replacing the versus mode.

It's like if if you play Single Player, it's like Dark Souls. If you play Coop, it's like Dark Souls. But if you want to play Versus, it's like Street Fighter, take it or leave it, even if the player wants a Versus mode that's more like Single Player instead of a Fighting Game, a genre they may neither play nor be interested in. Vice versa with Fighting Game fans. And this could hurt sales as well.
