    Saw the kitana trailer, kinda underwhelmed :( air fan still has a vertical recovery so r.i.p IAF, square boost still sux, and comboing into DB2 still seems to be her main combo route into damage

    Her entrance is pretty cool though, ill give her that, and her new stuff looks interesting, even if they were lifted from other character (Mileena divekick, Tanya teleport, etc)

    And the search for a third character continues, nyotengu and honoka are fine and all, but I've already been playing them since 2014 :/

    FINALLY! I've figured out why nyo's hiten no mai 2k into 2t is so inconsistent, it only works if the opponent is -14 while they're on the ground and nyo is above a minimum height when 2k hits, cause the plus frames off 2k vary depending on what time you hit the airborne opponent

    the closer they are to the ground, the less frame advantage you have, so no point going for it after long combos where too much gravity has set in or after short NH launches. This shit has been driving me nuts for a while, now I can actually come up with set ups to land it consistently

    Dam, i forgot about old woman julia voice, but my favorite will always be xiaoyu's "Ikuyo" intro where the last syllable gets cut off too early, so it sounds like someone yanked the mic from the voice actress during the line read, it's hilarious

    @ChaolanLegacy what's even worse, thank God the console version doesn't have, she had quotes and more battle grunts/screams, it was very awkward.

    DOA4 easily. At least it had entertainment value. Tekken 4 was just meh, and ugly-looking in comparison.

    A new Sakura Taisen game is coming out in 2020 with Tite Kubo as the lead artist. My 2006 self is doing backflips in response to this news

    Cue the girls that may look like Orihime, Rukia, or Rangiku.

    Outside of the miko girl looking like a younger brunette Orihime, there doesn't seem to be too much recycling of character designs, but you can definetly tell it's his style

    16 frames of recovery + only minus 5 + online lag = that shit might as well be a frame trap :/

    It's easier to deal with moves with huge recovery and creates a window time to know when you CH / Throw etc. There are -5 moves with huge recovery to where it's safety doesn't matter, it's mostly move recovery that gets a lot of people from watching them play and getting CH blown.

    this is pretty much why i dont press buttons after blocking stuff like marie rose 6pp, i know i have frame advantage but i still get CH to hell and back when i try to get my fast buttons out, at least online. in those scenarios i'd rather SS, hold, or duck the end of the string, but fuck trying to take advantage of my frame advantage when the recovery is that fast

    It also doesn't help that throws are how you punish plus the triangle system. So, you risk getting SSA'd with your response and to add another layer, most tracking moves are slow. Just start playing as dishonest as them. 2P that ass, Send em to Low(e's), Home goods. Whatever is disruptive to their BS.

    I've been doing that for lulz in every non-3S game ever since. Not really but I like to when I can.

    Mechanic offset like that should only work on 2D games due of pacing, putting it on a 3D fighter (especially DOA) where slow characters can have issues getting in while the opponent builds meter from a distance is a no-no.

    I'm 100% against meters in 3D fgs anyway.

    I remember the good ol' days when games weren't holding your hands from start to end and they were relatively hard but felt so rewarding to beat or to 100%, felt as if that was the achievement that I unlocked after finishing the game. Now its just one-button combos, or as I call them, the one-button wonder, people whining about hardish games being too hard even though they play others on easy mode, times have changed

    Well games were a lot more niche then in the 90's and early 2000's, and obviously the gaming industry wanted to expand its audience and reach into the mainstream. Unfortunately expanding that reach means catering to lowest common denominator of whiny, lazy, entitled brats. Thus we get hand-holding games and, win buttons & auto-combos. Next gen we'll get 1 button instakills that can be used from the start of a match.

    and boy don't talk like they're about to patch out all the male characters and turn DOA into a dating sim in the next update, that's false and you know it

    Its one of the weird quirks of the US. When I was travelling overseas it was a bit of a surprised to me how much different they approach things like this. Sex is no big deal, but they don't like anything overly violent. Sex is basically shameful in the US though, but we love our violence and gore.

    @XxNoriakixX Am I a degenerate because I usually must have a waifu in a fighting game if it's a new franchise I haven't tried? I mean for Street Fighter, I like Cody. For VF, I like Jacky, for DoA6 I'm playing Diego. My waifus tend to rock short hair and be free Spirited in their ambitions. As well as generally good mix up/close range.

    favorite Jet Set Radio character and why, go

    Playing honoka in doa6 feels like playing Jam in guilty gear. They have 0 range but have damage, speed, and bazillion ways to open you up, however the second she knocks you down, the threat is over cuz their oki is nonexistent :/
