    5 months into SF6 and i'm still hopping between classic and modern controls; classic feels the most natural but to deny the advantages of modern would be incredibly short sighted

    No kidding, like Haitani has been playing Modern Chun since like the start of the game (or a few weeks after it came out)? Its honestly surprising how good it is and how for some characters it is easier or very good to use modern controls over or compared to classic.

    Everyone talking about how Reina = Hehachi, but im ngl, first time I saw Reina I immediately thought of NiCO

    Both control lightning and Reina has moves that looks suspiciously similar to some of NiCO's (4h+k, 5kp, 4p+k to name a few), even though both practice completely different styles

    They are nothing alike.

    Reina has more in common with Karai from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles... particularly her incarnations from 2012, IDW Comics, and MAYBE Tournament Fighters.

    GBFVR got me thinking; ppl shat on GBFV for being an easy mode fighting game due it's low execution and characters you can figure out and optimize in a day

    Yet when MK11 and MK1 does the same thing every1 praises it for it's accessibility, where's the consistency?

    I was wondering when the day would come that MK is no longer part of the FGC

    Rising has the BP system which is about the most anti-scrub system i've seen in the last 20 years. Nobody can say shit about it.

    Rising's BP system is amazing, the fact that game punishes you for playing like a moron is just beautiful, definitely would like to see it in more fighting games

    dude how does Eliot have the best hellstab when he's not even a wrestler
    Then again hellstab being wrestler exclusive hasn't been a thing since DOA4 but still :/

    bruh i am getting so sick of reading manga where a character is an undisputed villain for 900 chapters but then in chapter 901 they reveal that "oh no they weren't evil, they were just playing the role of the bad guy for the good of humanity", like dude, not every bad guy needs to be Itachi, but I guess that's where we're at now :/

    heh, if you're a fan of badass old man characters in your fighting games then rejoice, cause you're getting two of them in the form of Victor in T8 and Omni-man in MK1!

    Sonic Superstars is fun but I can't in good conscience recommend it when its being sold at 60$ full price, wait for a sale if you're curious about it

    Also avoid the Steam version at all costs, get it on console if you can

    hopped into DOA5 PC ranked for the first time in years, it was nothing but a bunch of low tier Kasumi players just mashing jab strings and 66p in lag :/
    However I did run into a rather infamous Alpha player from back in the day (who will remain unnamed) which was equal parts nostalgic and upsetting lol

    You should tell me when you get on next time. I need character variety in my match vids, and Bass doesn't get much love.

    when you play so much Bass that everyone forgets that you're actually a Nyo main lol

    Sure 'ting man, just shoot me an invite if you see me on the game and i'll gladly play

    Players who gatekeep tech in dead fighting games are so annoying; like bruh, there are no tournaments, there's no money or prestige to had, why are you holding onto secrets just to have an advantage over the 5 ppl who still play your game?

    this whole time playing MK1 I thought Kitana sucked, turns out that's not the case at all; poor girl just doesn't have any kameos that synergize with her kit, fingers crossed she gets at least one perfect kameo down the line lest we Kitana players spend the next 4 years playing unoptimal teams :/

    Make note of it on TwitterX to the devs.

    sadly NRS is not in the business of buffs, they mostly nerf whoever the normies complain and balance by bringing the power ceiling down :/

    MK1 owners on Switch can now download a 30 GB patch that is supposed to fix the graphical and performance issues of the game, but unless that patch comes with an actual miracle that 30 gigs ain't gonna fix shit :/

    Despite having all the tactical depth of a pachinko machine, DOA4 really is the prettiest looking DOA game, back when the franchise still had color in it's cheeks and a decent lighting engine

    DOA4 is the best overall DOA game. It's an incredible shame that Itagaki did everything in his power to flush its balance down the toilet.

    ugh, DOA4 balancing, while I do think it is true to the Itagaki vision (i.e Ninjas rule, everyone else drools) it certainly did more harm than good

    If only there was a way to access the X05 build to see firsthand how DOA4 could've played, had Itagaki not insisted on meddling with the gameplay balance so aggressively.

    Huh, just found out that today is Wyclef Jean's and Eminem's birthday, well, Happy Birthday to 2 rappers I really used to like 20 years ago lol

    Decided to check out the Ruroni Kenshin anime reboot with much trepidation, but turns out its largely a scene for scence adaptation of the original show but with faster pacing and a higher budget, which is fine I guess :/

    Despite my qualms with the reboot, still want this show to succeed, so we can FINNALY see the final arc of the manga in anime form (we've gotten ovas and movies but they're super condensed and leave out alot)

    I'm enjoying it so far. It's much closer to the manga than the original (though the original was great as well).

    So...DragonBall Babies, thoughts?

    On the other hand, I am worried that the series takes on this huge cocaine of making everything extremely lighthearted yet again to appease a crowd that isn't big enough to carry the series for what it is and the quality style downgrades yet again (which was my main issue with Super despite it still being relatively good).

    Not just artistic quality, but atmospheric quality as well. The Frieza Saga for example was pretty adventurous traveling to another planet, but it carried that ominous suspense in the air that there's this great evil and you are going through encounters to reach it. The Goku Black Saga tried to do something like it but failed flat because the lighthearted quality just doesn't mesh well with it.

    I also enjoy OG DragonBall, but this looks like its trying to appeal to OG, Z, GT, and Super fans simultaneously, so my biggest fear is that it'll spread itself too thin and just be bland across the board, but u make a good point, with a depowered goku and vegeta maybe some other characters will FINALLY get some shine

    In DOA2 we're led to believe that Ayane is the one who killed Helena's mother, DOA4 reveals the truth but even b4 that it made 0 sense for Ayane to be the killer 'cause Helen's mom died by sniper rifle, tf kind of ninja is killing ppl in the doaverse with a sniper rifle?

    Between Lies of P and Elden Ring, I think I might be done with Souls games, it's been a fun 10+ years on the Fromsoft train but there are only so many times you can enjoy re-skinned Dark Souls

    It's a very tired genre. I enjoyed Code Vein and the Nioh games, but got tired of FromSoftware-like games after Demon's Souls. The difficulty is basically an excuse for tedious grinding. It was a cute novelty at first, but loses its appeal with each given game. At least Armoured Core 6 is something different.

    Code Vein and Sekiro were the last soulslikes that did something for me, everything after that I just makes me sigh when I hit the inevitable bs difficulty wall, but like u said thank goodness AC6 isn't just Dark Souls but robots, not that AC was ever that but its nice to see Fromsoft do something else

    I just downloaded Lies of P from gamepass. Seems decent so far, but still grinding Starfield.
