My brother keeps asking for fighting games and everytime he says that something else is bad.He says footsies, slow Tempo, fireballs, coomer shit, block on backwards and combos are all bad.We already played:>Smash Bros>Granblue Versus>DOA 6>Soulcalibur 6>SF5>Tekken>Them's Fighting Herds >Dragon Ball Fighter Z
Damn, does your brother even like fighting games?
>>721737647>block on backwards>badSounds like they want an arena fighter. But they don't like fireballs either?Eh, try Pokken or something.

>>721743867Actually incapable of original thought
>>721744195actual níntoddler
>>721737647I think your brother likes the idea of fighting games but doesn't actually like fighting games
>>721737647>if brother has shit taste (likely)UFC5>if good tasteWait for Half Sword to get a multiplayer update
>>721737647What he actually wants is Dragon Ball Raging blast
>>721744626ObsessedKeep going anon, maybe one day you'll go 1-2 in bracket
>>721744195alright, how about "unwashed faggot pedophile"that original enough for you, tendie scum?
>>721745981seething níntoddler, smash is not a fighting game and never will be, stay mad
>>721742369You could not handle that timmy
>>721737647>block on backwardsWhy does your brother hate this OP? I'm actually curious if he's even tried a game with it because I also used to have this opinion until I picked up Street Fighter 6 and then proceeded to wonder why I actually even had that opinion in the first place.
>>721737647Maybe some Arena Fighter is a better fit for him. Too bad they all suck even harder in certain ways and thr playerbase dies faster than actual FGs. Maybe try DB Sparking Zero? The game just got a patch recently but it coincidentally had none of the things your brother doesn't like.>no footsies because neutral barely fucking exists>no slow tempo because too many defensive mechanics in the game means aggression is more rewarded and they also nerf'd/patched a lot of the things that made truly passive gameplay strong>no fireballs because ki blasts barely fulfill the role of the traditional fireball, UI Goku's air fist projectile and sword slash ki blasts got deservedly nerfed to hell, and raw beam supers are larely useless>no block on backwards, just R1.>combos kind of sort of don't really exist because you can super counter almost everything so there are very little true combos and "rush chains" as they're called are glorified auto combos for the most part
>>721737647Nidhogg
>>721737647your brother is right. fighting games actually feel like shit to play. it's for autistis or people addicted to modding the females with massive tits and ass.
>>721737647your brother is right. fighting games actually feel like shit to play.
>>721737647sounds line your brother is a closet fag who wants to gay wrestle with you
>>721746259>touneyfagging
>>721750834Fighting games only feel like shit to play when you fight against people who make fighting games their whole personality. Tourneyfags, people who care about rank, people who play characters based on "viability", etc.
>>721737647Everytime I see the character designs I go wow I really want to get into fighting games.Then I play one and go fuck this is ass.I love juri but I'd rather play a game like sifu than learn tech for fightan games.
>>721751674Nah, they feel like shit when you play like shit. That is to say you put below minimum effort into learning basics and you're mad that you feel helpless against better players.
>>721752030Sunken cost fallacy.
>>721752147What sunken cost? I enjoy playing even at what could be considered a barely intermediate level and I don'thave a very long history with FGs. You think you should be able to win by picking up the controller and mashing, or beating someone with 200 hours consistently when you only have <20.
>>721752410>you have to git gud to have fun with fighting games>no not like that! It takes no time at all to learn to play fighting games!Pick one faggot. Youre not fooling anyone.
>>721742231>block beats attack, attack beats throw, throw beats block>strings>command grabs>combos>crossups>rolls>spot dodges>guard break>parries>okiIt has more in common with fighting games than not
>>721753264>block beats attackwish it did in ultimate
>>721752645Notice I said bare minimum, retard. I put more time into hitting NG+ on JRPGs than I do to get basic competency with my character. You also need to learn that you can have fun losing games. Go pick up any sport or instrument and go whine about how unfun and unfair it is, because those take way more time to get basic proficiency than fightan games.
>>721753264>>crossupshow do crossups work when you have a shield?
>>721753940>compares fighting games to real life skillsAbsolutely pathetic and exactly kind of person i was talking about.
>>721753264
>>721754387Instruments and sports are all enjoyable at an amatuer level and take way more time to eveb be half decent at.
>>721754284obviously without a directional blocking system the merits are lesser but it does avoid a shield grabit's not the mechanic, it's the technique
>>721754284Attacks directly out of shield are a thing, up smash and up+b recoveries. Funny thing too, there's fighting game characters like Ryu and Terry as crossover characters that have auto turn around like traditional fighting games but with WAY faster turnaround where you can just mash some moves and people bitch all the time about how they beat crossups for free in Smash. So yeah crossups are still a thing.
>>721754864>not the mechanic, it's the techniqueWow this was so stupid its kind of nostalgic. Like arguing on smash boards in 2005
>>721737647>He says footsies, slow Tempo, fireballs, coomer shit, block on backwards and combos are all bad.your faggot brother doesnt like fighting games, maybe have him play Dbz budokai, or maybe soul calibur 2
>>721755901>shittalking soul caliber 2 for no reasonLol
>>721742231Neither is SF6 yet look at the OP pic.
>>721751825Fighting games are the only genre where the juice is worth the squeeze just find a similar skill level friend or even me to play with and you'll have fun
>>721756245Juice was worth the squeeze 20 years ago when there was still a future for fighting games. With SF6 retardation, the only future is simplified mobile game tier gameplay and only corporate e-sports pseudo-hype.Dead genre.
>>721755970I love soul calibur 2 i think it's one of the best fighting games you can ever play, I suggest it because it's not nearly as coomer, has less juggling as the next game, it has no fireballs, short combos, no block on back...There are obviously footsies, but If this homo cant enjoy sc2, then give up and play ninja storm or whatever
>>721756475Thats fine, you dont have to play sf6, you can play lots of other games
>>721756475>Juice was worth the squeeze 20 years ago when there was still a future for fighting games. >2005>future for fighting gamesthe only series at this time that we're okay was tekken. This was one of the most dead eras of fighting games.
>>721753264Deadlock has all of these features and nobody would ever describe it as a fighting game.
>>721756568Well, not really, because everybody will follow the example of SF6 and only create meme games from now on. So my only option would be to play old games with no players. You need a healthy community for the real fighting game experience. And most people don't like to play old games, because they required the player to develop skill.
>>721756679With "20 years ago" I actually mean 17 years ago, when SF4 came out and started a brief period of peak fighting gaming until corporate suitmen took over Capcom.
