    I've realized accessibility is for me because I'm too harsh on games I don't main and end up liking the accessible ver. of a FG series ala GG or Tek (Still dislike TK but I get the gripes w/7) Is it bad to want mindless fun in one game but I still have my nerdy FG?

    I feel the opposite with 3D fighting games, for me 3D games feel way more chaotic and harder to control than 2D, which in turn for me makes them harder to acclimatize to. but once you do, you're in, guess thats why the only 3D fighters I like are the one's I've played for years (DOA/VF), while the other 3D fighters I can't even imagine trying to take seriously now (Tekken/Soul Calibur)

    on the flipside, I play hella 2D games, Nitroplus Blasterz, Arcana Heart 3, Samsho 2019 primarily with sprinklings of SFV, MK11, and DBZF on the side, my 2D experience is wildly lesser compared to my 3D experience but I feel I have a way easier time digesting the meta and it's rules than I do with other 3D games, so who knows, maybe I was a 2D player in a past life who picked up DOA and VF by accident lol

    Yeah, originally I’m a 2D player but I like more of the meta in 3D. Can’t get past the feeling that 2D games offer too much freedom and I see why devs kinda slowing shit down. I can never have a chance to establish dominance in anime at least. SF is far more intuitive, even the more Bs ones to me but that’s bc I’m used to them. SC to me is pretty much a VF with more BS, same as DoA ofc.

    Have gotten a feeling recently that I can’t get into live action films or shows because of anime. Anyone else feel that Live Action doesn’t hit the same anymore like it used to in the past?
    Hold_Junkie93
    Never played Ping Pong but I feel like it’s the most tryhard sport simply because the concept of playing on a small table is essentially ignored by playing from mad deep. Like how you even know you will hit the table at the right spot from there? It feels like an exploitation.

    Hot take maybe but IMO rollback talk is too late if FGs are removing strict combos. I always saw it useful for that purpose but it’s kind of enough if you’re wired up tbh RB is to appease to Wifi players that are casual. Let’s be honest. All RB games deaigned w/it in mind are all easy to combo. RB good for older FGs

    Can anyone explain to me why my shitty obama smart phone I found on the ground utilizes my wifi better than my iPhone XR I just got last week? Is this just manipulation for me to use my service plan or the iPhone too advanced to pick up something non-gig speed? Works better in the hallway outside my apartment. Service ass in my building too

    Fighting games are such a misunderstood genre/hard to get into that, for outsiders, they can’t seem to comprehend what we mean by, “Smash and Jump Force aren’t fighting games.” Getting tired of back & forth arguments about this. They want to say they play a fighter but can’t lol

    I don’t know how Ghandi stayed peaceful after fasting so long. I don’t eat anything sufficient enough, I feel like strangling a motherfucker.

    Are curved monitors okay for fighting games? I ask because I wonder if it'd be weird looking at Health Bars and/or Super Meters.

    Curved monitors are fine. Makes it easier to focus on any particular part of the screen compared to a straight monitor where your eyes need to "reach". Really handy with 32" monitors.

    It'd suck if CDPR removed the crafting exploit that allows you to disassemble soda cans into crafting components that you can then sell for a lot of EDs. Won't be as boring when the dupe glitch in Prey was removed but leave SP cheats alone lol Makes this way funner
    Hold_Junkie93
    Is it hard to watch or play a game without the outside influence or opinions of others? Are there any true and raw opinions that are earnest, from the viewer? To which we can gather truly unique viewpoints instead of repeated memes and fluff? You're seen as the bad guy for trying to be unique in that regard nowadays

    He doesn't play fighting games and applies it to everything in life

    Based on personal experience of giving my honest opinion, most of the time I'm better off keeping it to myself and/or a select few that I know I'm cool with on a personal level.

    I'm aware, and stand by my point.
    If he is seeking a raw opinion unfettered by appeals to popular/communal sensibilities, he's going to be getting a lot of that. If people are truly being honest, most are not really going to give a shit what he thinks about anything. The few who do are going to be close enough that they feel comfortable offering their genuine opinions regardless.

    I think early female fighting game characters were mostly tokenistic in nature.

    Could you elaborate on what you mean by that? I think I know (and agree with lol) what you’re trying to say

    Yeah, like Chun-Li for example or Cammy don't use anything remotely similar to their fighting styles. Just has moves to show off legs and thighs. Ivy is just a Dominatrix, while this one has a more fleshed out story, can't help but think the girls there for the hornies. Trust me, I like sexy stuff and I'm not SJW at all but this is why I like SNK gals because they are more lived-in to me.

    For SNK, May Lee is a super hero type and is quirky, I like fun. For SF, Makoto was cool because she was a daughter of the strongest fighter in her lands and wants to continue his legacy and dojo. She might be a little hotheaded but it's to protect her integrity and she's always been a good motivator for me there. Vanessa is a mom (MILF)and is badass.

    Remember when you could main a character and they felt like they belonged to you? Since everyone plays outta hype, that's gone. Now, you have to use a char for the fact they function properly, not because you like them. Now, highest-execution, or meme chars like grapplers or low tiers (Not even fun low tier) are all you have.

    @Awesmic Of course. This coming from someone who used Makoto in SSF4 when she was considered low tier, to when Everyone played her in the AE update due to a buff and then left anyway

    Hold_Junkie93
    You see a char being played that you never saw b4 bc games are made slightly easier. It's seems fake to me. The SFV popularity poll showed Makoto at #2 when I damn sure didn't see her, only 2 times my whole life time and one of those was a guy picking her to try and say something and he still lost, badly.

    When will MS stop charging for live on 360? Would feel pretty dumb to have that 20 yrs down the line.

    Seeing the UltraDavid RoboCop zoning vid that got that kid to freak out remindes me why I became more of a 3D player. Yes, I've dealt with silly zoning in SF4 (Mako v Sagat) and succeeded plenty. Even from old school heads but ultimately, I've grown tired of the play style unless I know zoning is strong. Anime FGs I'm becoming OK with now BC of options.

    MK is game where most characters have at least 1 way to deal with projectile spam, so there's really no reason for anyone to get that mad at zoning, although that kid sounded like he was 12 so I wont fault him for not knowing how to deal with projectiles

    I was zoning niggas out in Inj 2 games. I'm not saying NRS doesn't options but the way the responsiveness of the general movement (or lack thereof) is, I can see why it's stronger but it's mostly due to NRS demographics not dealing with old school FGs, so, no experience w/ zoning

    Honestly I don't think familiarity with older fighters would even help when it come with dealing with projectiles in NRS games, considering how you deal with projectiles in MK is vastly different with how you deal with projectiles in say, Street Fighter

    l.et's be honest....Battle Fantasia did the Granblue Fantasy Versus before AND better than Granblue Fantasy Versus

    I was today years old when I found out ProZD was a THAT famous. Simply because he doesn't come off like he has that kinda income. He even uses paper for shit. (Reminds me of Andy Milonakis) No fancy video intros, gaming chair, not asking for subs, sponsoring anything...feels so down to Earth and early 2000'ish. So, weird.
