SFV is trash and will continue to be (fun fact, several prominent Japanese tournaments have been dropping it)

It's the Japanese and there's no arcade version. Not sure how that's supposed to mean much. Still growing in the west. And have you played it? It's not trash at all. Far from being close to the best in the series, but it's definitely not a bad game and has plenty of content now.

Injustice 2 will go the same route of every other NRS game most likely (dead within a year because NRS is somehow worse than Capcom at balancing a game, shitty PC support and the game already being dead on arrival when it finally comes out a year later on PC)

Eh, that doesn't make it not good. That just means it has a heavy casual following as opposed to a standard hardcore fanbase.

all in all, its not a great year for FGs with only 2 titles having any hype

Opinions exist so I'm not going to argue that part with you. But seems like you aren't all that in to fighting games to begin with. As an avid fan this year has been great so far and looks like it'll only get better. MvC Infinite has already proven itself to me imo, especially with a story mode now, and especially if some of the hot leaks are true.

no, im pretty big into FGs, i just dont like shit games like SFV

the balance sucks and none of capcoms decisions make any sense, like getting rid of invincible DPs on wakeup, nerfing fang in s2, everyone's meaty option is cr.mp, v trigger is basically x factor minus the health regen (or for certain characters hardly a relevant mechanic at all)

like, so many of the pros at this game have shown so much disdain for the game on a competitive level, even bonchan said you literally just press random shit and win

SFV is not growing in the west, many people have been jumping ship to injustice 2, t7, and rev 2

combo breaker had a whopping five more entrants for SFV than last year while REV 2 doubled its entrants

also where do you get that i discounted tekken? i even praised it as being one of the games people are hype for

as for infinite, i grew up in the arcades when mvc2 and third strike was the shit to be playing

i am not hyped for mvci at all after playing sfv and the fact it looks like a mobile game
