My day started with me finding out that rollback is coming to REV and REV2. I was expecting them to put it in after they were done with Strive, so this is quite the surprise. Finally, can't wait to not drop 50% of my I-no combos.
From the amount off stuff that is shown/revealed about Street Fighter 6, it looks promising as a video game, which is something that I wasn't able to say about a fighting game in a long time, this might end up making it better than Tekken 8, but that also depends on what Bamco's going to reveal about its fighting game later down the line.
When a trailer for a future game in the series, be that a fighting game, rpg, anything else, makes you want to play the current game more often then I can say that the trailer did a good job to hype its players up. Tekken 7 could've been the biggest fighting game if it wouldn't have been for Season 3, if Bamco plays its cards well, then Tekken might become the biggest fg out there (or close to Strive at least).
The more gacha games I'm playing the more I'm realizing that it is better to play them casually no matter how grindy the game is, trying to be even semi competitive in them is just going to kill your passion towards said game, as well as your wallet if you don't know where the limit is.
People are making fun of the current DNF patch and I'm here like: Things' been a kusoge day 1 (and the devs probably intend to keep it that way), they thought that things are going to change drastically and they would balance characters accordingly? If we got a laundry list of changes then balance would still be thrown out of the window regardless.
It seems that the PS4 might be the last Sony console that I'll buy if they continue with the (for the most part) bad business decisions that they've been making for the past 2 years or so. Get your shit together, Sony.
The Bleach x Disney memes that happened with Disney's acquisition of the streaming rights for Bleach (I guess only the upcoming TYBW stuff?) have gotten out of hand to the point where there's a "Bleach in Kingdom Hearts 4" meme now. Even if it'll never happen, imagine the interactions, Ichigo and Sora, Kairi and Orihime, Riku and Renji/Byakuya, it would be kinda nice ngl.
Granblue's got to hold that L right now. Online tournaments in NA/EU/Asia that are only going to be playable in Asia more or less with the delay-based netcode. I kind of felt that weren't getting a rollback or Season 3 announcement. Its the same thing with MK, IP's way too big in Japan, the announcements are going to be reserved for either Granblue Fes (most likely) or during/after the Winter tournament.
Not surprised about the P4AU rollback announcement but the "new" Samsho getting rollback as well? I thought that they weren't going to upgrade that game because they'll be making a new one in a few years and just put rollback into that one day 1 instead of coming back to their current game 1 year after they were done with the updates and dlc characters. Well, this came out of nowhere for sure but I'll gladly take it.
We have Dendro archon leaks (or at the very least rough sketches on how she'll look) and some people are disappointed because she doesn't look great/Archonlike, looks like a child and isn't tan (80-90% of the players repeating themselves regarding point 1 because most of them for sure said the same about Ei/Shogun) even though there's a pretty good, actually multiple, reasons why she'll be roughly looking that way.
The more I see stuff related to Jamie the more I'm starting to like the character. Probably won't be my main with Juri being part of the base roster but I'll be messing around with him for sure.
Street Fighter 6 looks promising, character models don't look bad, supers look/feel impactful, story mode might be handled the same way like how it was handled in MK Deception/Armageddon, which could be nice if executed well. The roster leak is kind of unfortunate but this can be turned around if their gameplay's going to be interesting. If Capcom doesn't mess things up then ArcSys might have a competitor again.
Tfw a 400 Player Point (Ultra SF4) reads your backdash via jumping forward and punishes it with a 720 of all things, my eyes saw what they saw but my mind still doesn't believe that that shit happened.
What would you all think of a new Ninja Gaiden game that wouldn't be a numbered title and it'd feature Ayane or Rachel as the protag/main character? Some of the characters in older NG games are playable only for a couple of missions (ik that RE did things differently but still) but it would be nice if they'd get their own NG game imo.
only thing that sux is that every now and then a unit that catches your eye will show up and not being able to to guarantee them with your meager resources can cause a bit of FOMO
