Seething about trannies aside, why did they give her a bunny? I don’t understand.
>>736571409To cook :3
Is now the best time to get into Strive, any discounts?
>>736571409We may never understand Daisuke's vision
>>736571409merchandising
>>736572350Not at the moment, no.Wild I skipped S4 and still feel like I don't need any of it. Unika Deadly Rave was cool looking but that's it.
>>736571351So stun/IKs are back?Gattlings are back?Wallsplat/break is gone?IAD's and air game is back?All the characters kits were restored and the reworks undone?
>>736572838Strive still isn't guilty gear, sorry.
>>736572737see >>736572385
>>736572737So many garbage characters, redesigns, and letdowns. Thankfully all I ever bought were the first season and A.B.A.
>>736571409female audience like animal mascot
>>736573185>Female Audience >Strive Guilty Gear is literally the most greasy fat geeky autistic and even unpleasant male audience you can find, troons included. Them and Smash.
If i grind SF6 whole summer can i finally have good time on Tokkon Marvel on August?
>>736571351Did they make the game fun yet
>>736573447>If I grind street fighter will I have a good time in an entirely different kind of game made by arcsys? No retard.
>>736571351Let me guess: no divekick, no 6H low-crushing with wall-bounce on counterhit, no dowanga counter followup, no bakushuu, and no multi-level card charges?
>>736573535You are right i should just grind -Strive- instead. 4 months feel so long again.
>>736573549You can find out for yourselfhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MIJwA7Pu9Ns
>>736573593>>736573447Play DBFZ instead, Tokon is watered down DBFZ.
>>736573185Women don't play fighting games.
>>736573751Can I play S2 DBFZ or are we still in >design the entire game around delay based netcode so everyone has full screen normals
>>736573795Mhm... Well...Think it like this: if you survive in DBFZ you will be a god in Tokon.
>>736573751>DBFZJustin Wong said it trash
>>736573795Yeah ignore that other guy, playing dbfz post arcsys bamco break up with bamco balancing will not make you a god at tokon or even good at it.
>>736571409Nothing ever goes her way, so my headcanon is the bunny ate her food stock and she's making it work for her
>>736571351I just don’t feel like playing it until they undo the weird tranny shit they added to it. I’ll stick to +R.
>>736573795What >>736573847 said. Jeez, you're a DBFZ player, you're probably going to run shit in Tokon since it'll click with you so fast.
>>736572385She’s always chasing for a young hot BWC so she’s “chasing the rabbit” meaning chasing an illusion thing. Shes doesn’t get her BWC but she does get a rabbit. Meaning completion from her love quest or just some irony. And yes this actually canon to all lorelets she is absolutely an overt BWC fiend.
>>736574127*illusive* not illusion
>>736571351I like Strive well enough but I might actually drop it if they gutted Asuka as hard as it looks like they did. I initially dropped the game a bit after release and came back to it because he interested me, and have played it since. He's the main draw the game has for me and I'm skeptical if that'll continue to be the case.
Not playing this shit game after all the dumb changes they made, especially with how badly they gutted Jam. Bedman is fun in Strive with his 8-way dash and zoning install but he won't be the first guy to fall victim to being a cool character in a game that I won't play. If my standards were that low I'd be playing ASSFAGGOTS.
>>736574127This is true she tried to drug Ky
>>736573684>They got rid of Kenroukaku, removed charge levels, neutered parry followups, castrated the ever living fuck out of Bukushuu, created some new special to use air specials because retards and women cannot tiger knee, and removed her fun supers.Continuing to be trash I see. ArcSys needs to be destroyed.
>>736574225I think the guy they've shown playing him just sucks at playing AsukaThe only thing I'm worried about is they haven't shown 22K/22S, and outright removing these would be extremely fucking stupid
>>736574703I don't think that he was playing amazingly or anything, but I doubt he was that bad. I think what you see is just how Asuka is now, I have a hard time believing they would have this showcase and not have him use 22K/S if he still had them. 22S is a very basic part of how he functions, and it's something even a bad player would use. I'd love to be proven wrong, but I don't see him keeping them, especially considering the staves need some new input and 22K/S for them seems like a natural fit if his charges are gone.
https://youtu.be/gq-kwe02x48?is=8lC6mOh2arLlPcoXIts up
>>736571409Two options or a combination of both:>1: Merchandising>2: We have completely run out of creativity so uhh we can give her uh well we can have her story be uh give her a random animal companion!
>>736574228>jam getting castrayed :O >bedman getting castrated :)
>>736574991I think he died he didn’t just get castrated
>>736574820>especially considering the staves need some new input and 22K/S for them seems like a natural fit if his charges are gone.Fuck me, that kinda checks out, Half Circle or DP would overlap too much with spells, and half circle forward only has H leftIt's fucking stupid tho, I understand their goal is to try to prevent him from always being plus and having matches where he's just flinging shit in Case 3 really fast without any counterplay, but there are better avenues to do this than straight up removing 22K/S
>>736575101Bedman in strive is actually fun to play. The same does not look true for jam.
Reminder: whenever you see someone complaining about Jam not having her Xtard kit remember that no one on /v/ likes Xtard Retard 2 and you're getting baited
>>736571409>Action Hero has to hold cute defenseless thingThere is nothingNOTHINGChinese Cinema has done better
>>736572838>All the characters kits were restored and the reworks undone?I wish.>drop Strive shortly after the first few characters released because it was still boring and shallow>interest eventually slightly piqued because Venom was added>look at gameplay>no teleport>no different ball formations>balls move slower than my dead grandma in a mobility scooter>no double head morbidDamn, Daisuke and Soive really raped this character to death.
>have to order new hitbox cabel becauase it breaks easily
>>736575149I mean I think robo ky stabbed him or something
>>736575158This! I actually prefer woman in burqas too!
>>736575158I like Xrd but I hate Jam in Xrd.
>>736571351>Fighting Games are so BACKNice. Anyone wanna play something?
>>736575269Ok thanks, that has nothing to do with him being fun to play in strive and jam not looking fun to play or being fun to look at which was my only point.
HOLD ON! aren't we ignoring a big update for a fighting game that was released today?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dU2A5lL4Q0o
>>736575189That’s probably plot relevant whereas Jam has been a character for over 25 years and she never had anything to do with rabbits. It’s totally random. Like AI came up with this gimmick. >uhhh give her a pet rabbit it will be cute and make her argue with it.
Strive literaly removed all the icky mechanics and moves boomer ggs had and became 3rd most popular game Nobody cares about you bunch of freaks who enjoyed the cancerous clown matchup fiesta old ggs were
>>736575410Funny when Strive is the game with infinitely more freaks
>>736575410>It's lame and shit now so everyone can rollover into itWe know; popular trash is all about the spectacle and ease of access. Congratulations on figuring this out.
>>736575194>no different ball formationsgreat way to out that you've never labbed the character
>old ggErm… That’s a little problematic can we just talk about how good Strive is?
I hate Guilty Gear fans, old and new.
>>736575753Did they add more than 1 ball formation? That's a pretty cool addition then. Show me some of the different ball formations you can have. You wouldn't just be a lying retard, right?
>>736575785Pot's obnoxious fanbase and the devs bending over backwards for them to keep him top tier or top 1 for most of this game's lifecycle while half the cast got shit-all is more annoying than anything else.
Its blazblue who shouldve got strivefied it always was some cookie cutter safe animu shit arstyle so it would appeal to average consoomer and gg shouldve stayed as muh epic hardcore anime fighting game Also mai is better tranny rep
culture warriors are going to be posting about trannies from the breadline
>>736575907Pot and the removal of dp rc have definitely been the worst gameplay decisions they’ve made in an already bad game, but the bridget and testament stuff is still the worst because of how blatant and lacking in dignity it is.
>>736573185Yeah look at all the women dripping over Oro and his pet turtle.
>>736576117that is cute ngl
All of the sudden i just want Venom for Tokkon Marvel launch roster.
>>736576117I like Oro a lot he’s cool, I can see why he has so many ladies after him
>>736575785Somehow, of all the things about Strive, it was the music that disappointed me the most.
>>736575907It is because the director of the game is a Pot main.
wow
>>736576084Bridget had no dignity to begin with, the tranny shit was dumb but I do not give a fuck the way you pretend to because bridget was always just a shallow trap fetish character. Pot and the other actual balance decisions were the shitty thing about this game while I played it because bridget remained mid-tier or lower for most of his existence so I would just stuff the hurtbox on a move and kill whatever tranny decided to play him that day. Meanwhile the devs lick the asshole of pot players every patch.
>>736576325I mean the reason they did it. I’m not a bridget fan and won’t pretend to be, just the fact they knelt to those freaks and made the game change for them is devoid of dignity. And Testament is the bigger issue than bridget because he’s actually a cool and fun character and has story importance.
>>736576325>>736576401And also they made strivestament a straight downgrade in design and gameplay by a million miles from Testament
why don't u bitches just go and play a fighting game instead of dedicating your very small time on earth to being mad about decisions in a game you don't even like
>>736576401>I mean the reason they did it.Yeah, daisuke decided that gay pedos would be less lucrative to pander to than tranny pedos this time around. But go ahead and pretend it was more than cynical money-grabbing like every other change in the game if it makes you feel better about whatever your pet issue is.
>>736576483I do, just I can also say a game made dogshit decisions at the demand of degenerates
>>736571351the only fighting game is SF6
>>736576556I’m not saying it’s the only thing that’s wrong with strive, very far from it, but it’s definitely the biggest example of them having zero dignity which is not good for a game.
>>736576483I used to like these games a lot.
BREAKING NEWS: Tyler1 has decided he is going to win sf6 at Evo
Outside of Strive, which series is easier to learn and get into, GG or BlazBlue?
>>736576713Did he even get to master, I remember him struggling in like plat
>>736575323I can play CF or uni
>>736576483Inversely, why are you here getting upset and calling out others for voicing their opinions? Take your own advice.
>>736576737Every anime party masher is easy
>>736576737Blazblue is the easier game in terms of execution but has more character specific mechanics and knowledge checks. GG, at least +R, has harder execution but doesn’t feel as much like you’re playing a different game against every character, although it still has character specific stuff and knowledge checks too, xrd might be a bit in between.
>>736576713is this true or notwould be entertaining
>>736576612The game's continually shitty nonsensical balance despite its close attention paid by the devs was far less "dignified" wtf that is supposed to mean than anything else for someone that was actually trying to play and enjoy a fighting game and that's why I left after giving it a chance.Again whatever makes you feel better about your pet issue. I don't think that the tranny thing was good but it's clear that the "reason he did it" was just because it would make him more money like every other change in this game, not because he thought it important to kneel to trannies or whatever nonsense you're spouting. I'm not going to argue about bridget for 200 posts so I'll just leave you to whatever you felt was daisuke's motivations, have a nice evening
>>736576932its true, he's a modern guile player lol
>>736576741I recall he got to master off Modern Guile and got discouraged by the ensuing loss streak to the proper MR
>>736576962didnt he quit?
>>736576987he announced his return like 3 hours ago
>>736577067ok youre trolling me..................
>mfw seeing the Jam trailerVery disgusting censored Jam. SAD!
>>736577202worse is they took her stance away
>>736576737seconding this anon>>736576837Blazblue has a pretty comfortable input buffering window of 5 frames, so a lot of the execution isn't nearly as difficult as many earlier fighters, but not as drool inducing to the point of fucking up super inputs or anything like in SF6. The hard part really does come from learning character matchups, though because of that, it sill retains some of the most depth out of any semi-modern fighter.
>>736576117back when fightan had sovl
>>736577202Worse is the annoying ass bunny mascot
summoning Captain Marvel for the next Tōkon trailer!
>>736577404But she has that exact stance in strive.
>>736576273CUTE!
>>736577867tiktok showed me with the bunny idlegood to know i love her thighs
>>736577907You get your info on fgs from tiktok?
>>736578015Yeah bro.
>>736573857>marvel vs capcom infinite > DBFZOk then...
>>736576228I dunno, I've warmed up to the buttrock vocals.Though some of the later tracks are a bit miss, admittedly.
>>736571351>Jam's inputs are all over the place, gekirin on fucking 236S, slide on 214S>her dp is gone>she has her command jump from +R for some reason even though it's on a different input and she can't do it in the air to bounce off niggas so what's the fucking pointBut don't worry, because she now has a mixup stance!!!!! what a radical take on a rushdown character in this highly technical game and mechanically granular game guilty gear strive
I have a confession:I've played fightans since SFII and I'm **STILL** a shitter to this day because 90% of the time I only ever play against AI.
Wanna know what I really hate about fighting games? I guess I'm starting to lose patience with so many of them coming out and how much investment it takes in learning but>new character comes out >want to learn them>have to wait a week or so for actual guides to come out>have to get a second screen and start mashing memorizing strings and combos otherwise you end up with badly optimized shit>have to randomly learn when to use each move online because the fucking community takes forever to update the text guides or you have to wad through 2-4 hours of VODs because these fucking retards can't edit to save their lifeJesus fucking christ, can't they make the barrier to entry a little lower? I'm not asking for easier execution or something, I'm just asking for ways to LEARN MY FUCKING CHARACTER IN THE FUCKING GAME rather than banging my head across the wall or having to shift through like 20 different videos oh and oh wait this combo video is outdated because it's day 1 tardation and there's a much easier link with better combo and oki.Don't even fucking get me started on the whole here's one string but repeated with EVERY SINGLE PERMUTATION so I can fill up this combo guide.
idk why /v/ is still surprised when a character is brought into Strive and their outfit is changed and their moveset is simplified. That's just the identity and vision for the game, has been for 6 years now.
>>736578402>outfitThey're going to have alt costumes though?
>>736578402>has been for 6 years now.>mfw Strive has been out for nearly 6 years wtf
>>736578393whats stopping you from figuring stuff out on your own in the lab instead of reading guides
>>736578382It's okay, boomer bro, I'm an 09er who plays against people and am still shit.
>>736578393Like damn brothers, all I want to do is >learn 5 or so moves >learn 2-3 combos to use online>slowly expand as I get more and more info on when to use which move when.but good fucking lord these fucking video guides are making me lose my god damn mind do they really have to be like 4 hours long? How hard is it to just say use X,Y,Z here, here's your basic BnB. Why are all the guides now fucking LONG ASS VODS NOW FUCK WHY IS ALL THE HIDDEN SECRET TECH ON X OR FUCKING DISCORD?
>>736578452We've seen Dizzy's alt costume and it's not her classic one which is what /v/ wants
>>736571409It's the surrogate child because her promised husband Bridget decided to castrate himself out of the blue.
>>736578505Go play Rising. I'm not joking.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3HP9gzS9ekI
>>736578495The problem is you have to mash it out in ranked/casual for it to make sense. It would really be a nice heads up for the game to be like "hey this move is meant for this" but no instead you learn the command list, learn maybe 1-2 BnB combos (and again for god sake why the fuck are combo videos so fucking long and they have to present EVERY fucking permutation and don't even explain the benefits of each ender). Like sure, it's easy to do a command grab but the game or you won't really be able to know HOW to setup the command grab until you try it out in casual/ranked. >>736578552I don't really care much for Granblue ngl. Maybe, I was thinking of trying Fatal Fury next but I feel like I'm going to run into the same issue.
>>736578505its kind of funny how hard street fighter mogs other fighting games on this front, like sf6 has replay takeover and strive doesn't
>>736578402It's still important we protest it. What they've done to Bridget, Jam, ABA - it's not just bad game design, it's an insult to a /v/ classic and the desecration of art. If someone burnt down the Louvre we wouldn't then give them a pass for destroying the Smithsonian too. Evil is evil and censorship is just as evil the thousandth time as it us the first.
why do people keep making fighting games?
>>736578298I don’t mind the idea of the songs having vocals, but the songs themselves are either schizophrenic in a bad way or boring. It’s god damn dire when the RWBY music in BBTag is more fun to listen to than the Strive soundtrack, and I don’t know if it’s my taste or the music that’s dire.
>>736578619The gameplay is super simple, moves are just on a timer instead of a resource. Every single character in the game can do a corner combo of >medium > EX skill > medium > EX skill > medium > superYou dig into a lot more stuff the more you play, but the floor doesn't get lower than Rising, and I mean that as a good thing. Game's free to play if you just wanna try Gran or whoever is on rotation.

>>736578621ironically it's SFVI that I'm complaining about lol.fuck man I just want to learn Alex dude why are the guides so fucking long..... how the heck do I use prowler, why do I have to watch a fucking 2 hour video for this when I can see a text guide that can explain this in 5 seconds.... why is the community for this game so freaking gatekeepy?
>>736578716The biggest tragedy is looking at the sex of the valentines being thrown out.
>>736578626bad comparison because the old stuff still exists and you can play it. if you burned down the louvre there would be no more mona lisa or whatever. you're using censorship completely wrong, censorship would be them going back to xrd and changing everything
>>736578528Ah yeah legacy costumes. There's no news for that yet sadly.
>>736571351>>736576273I fucking love her theme and her tunmy
>>736576808Fuck /v/'s opinions
>>736571351>tummy but no belly buttonThis is as bad as boobs with no nipples
>>736578795Wait no it's worse than boobs analogy. At least underboobs are hot as fuck. Tummy with covered belly button is a blasphemy
>>736578626>It's still important we protest it>He thinks he's making a difference on the biggest video game poser board of a Mongolian Basket Weaving Site.
>>736578795TruthnvkeCan't wait for a mod that shows off more of her tummy.
2.0 patch notes in 3 hours for those whose interested.
>>736575907>>736576237also because in xrd potenkim was the worst character in the game throughout all versions so i guess it is fair for him top be good in this game.
>>736578730SFfags in shambles
I think it speaks very much to my tastes that Ky has been one of the fighting game characters I've resonated most with on a (haha) function level. Apparently the answer for me, personally, is to play the most vanilla character possible in the hyper aggressive games.
>>736578730this is the best guy for concise sf6 info, he doesn't have anything on alex outside of his trials and he mostly focuses on patch changes but you get a lot of good info from him https://www.youtube.com/@Bafael/videos
Never cared about Strive outside of looking at Ramlethal's feet desu
Trash character, but at least I'll be having this https://youtu.be/BKKPE8_bgG0?si=03NbUwlMFso_cOBo
>>736571409oro reference idkstrive is garbage anyway who cares
>>736579086thanks lol ironically i did pick up TCG pocket recently...
SF6 is so confusing with its billions of systems and numerous meters I have no idea how this resonated with 2 million+ normalfags.
>>736579275SLIME IN, SLIME RUSH ALL THE WAAAAAY16 CHARACTERS, THEY ALL PLAY THE SAMEIN THIS MICKEY MOUSE PARTY GAME
No dynamic panty shots is a huge downgrade but I like fat Jam
Fuck this gameI hope everyone who plays it dies of aidsI'm done forever
>>736579410>97GBYou play world tour?
>>736579410ninety-eight gigabytes of ass
I'm actually really excited for Strive 2.0 Don't care about the doomers. I will be playing Jack-O and Jam on release. And Dizzy too. I can't believe she has an ice floor. Do people seethe about Dizzy's ice floor? lol
>>736579202Kino.
>>736578716uh oh shred alert, shred alert people!
>>736579484>>736579507How do you install it so that it doesn't automatically include 50+gb of World Tour?
>>736571351>even the 2xko subreddit is waking up to impending doom
>>736571351Is she a virgin?
>>736579484I'm not paying for extra costumes
>>736579638fourty-eight gigabytes of ass
>>736571351Don't tell me, Bridget smells like a girl to Jam now?
>>736579695Pretty sure she assaulted Bridget at some point so no.
>>736571409Daisuke doesn't really care what happens in the game any more since he wrote his self insert a good end with a hot redhead new wife that he can fuck without feeling guilty about his dead wife, don't think too hard about it no one on the dev team did.
>>736572636They have Bridget and Roger for that, don't they?
>>736579638It's in the DLC select option in steam and just uncheck the shitty world tour. Saves you 17.96GB sadly.
>>736579275Modern
>>736579823>only saves 18gbHow the fuck is a fighting game this big? Is it the RE Engine? Or is Capcom just shit at optimization? I know there are 3d assets but the stages and everything else is viewed only in a flat 2d plane. You don't have to render entire worlds and hundreds of NPCs/Enemies.
>>736571409Why did they give Oro a tortoise?
>>736578393Fighting game players have this obsession with twitter and post everything on twitter and expect you to be in the know. If it isn't twitter then it's all in a random ass discord you have to join. I think I've learned all the optimals in UNI2 off fighting the stray S+ guys and stealing their routes.
>>736574556I'll miss her "press kick at the right time" super but the other two are functionally the same as her other old super. The No!Kikosho charging all her cards is neat.
>>736571409Basically pandering to females and "women". Also, gets shares on social media.
>>736578626>ABA in +r>stall until you can confirm into turbogorilla mode and do retard damage>ABA in Strive>Stall until you can confirm into Turbogorilla mode and do retard damageThe only thing wrong is i miss her red hair but she has an old color palate anyway.
>>736580284The hair being oxidized copper is pretty kino.
>>736579946Unironically sf6 doesn't use much of pre rendered videos like the 100GB beasts of MK1 and Tekken 8 since sf6 so it's the forced 8K textures that's too blame.
>>736571409She was meant to come out in 2023 which was the chinese year of the rabbit, but got delayed 3 years instead.
>>736580378Since sf6 uses real time cutscenes*
>>736579946they add 500MB of Avatar slop every month and the game is like 3 years old.
>>736578626>It's still important we protest it.Wouldn't have to protest if you fags actually bought and played the old games.
>>736574991>thinking Bedman and Bedman? are the same characterngmi. I genuinely have more fun playing Strive Bedman even though I miss Task C. Now if only they could make 5.S not useless half the time.
>>736579946>wants pic related to have less polygonsWhat are you, gay?
>same price as the ENTIRE Caitlyn battlepass (35 dollareedoos)>Caitlyn's pass came with her and her chromas (same as Akali's bundle) AND Pic related attached to the battlepass rewards itselfClearly riot is trying to fleece as much as they can from their own player base before pulling the plug. This is like if for the season 2 fighter pass Capcom only added 1 character and 1 stage but the price was the same as season's 1.Wild how there's no discussion about how scummy riot is.
>>736580904Her launch bundle.
she will save us
>>736580904>Wild how there's no discussion about how scummy riot is.The layoffs took genuinely all the wind out of the communities sails. In the public eye of the fgc the game is basically dead.
>>736578785
>>736580989Knowing her classic costume is going to be in the game with her at no additional cost. Makes me realize that Capcom ain't so bad. Worst thing they do is the fighter coin bullshit.>
>>736581045Hell even at their own tournaments where riot employees are attending; is dead.The console launch must have been abysmal. Maybe next time focus on making a fucking game instead of a online rank hamster wheel with no actual content other than overpriced microtransations.Their premium battlepass is 5 dollars more than the fucking avatar game and that has a story mode!
>>736580989I dig her being an ayylmao now. Hopefully we can move past the era of Max parroters bitching and moaning about Ingrid cause she "ruined" the three games over a 20 year period she appears in(they have played none of them)
>>736580939that's a sweat deal. I was gonna pick her up anyway
>>736581240This webm always cracked me up like they have the balls to show the emptiness with no fucks given.
>>736580380Crazy.
>>736580989
>>736579672Everyone went on endlessly about how great a free to play fighter with some actual money and a big IP behind it was going to be, how it would lower the bar of entry and we could all enjoy a huge skill range and playerbase. Heard that 2XKO only had 10 characters at launch or some shit; still decide to give it a shot with some friends at our local meetup, considering it is free and all. Download it and start it up, only to find that we have fucking character currency and only get to unlock like 5 or 6 characters. We all just sat there in shocked silence. What the fuck were they thinking?
>>736581240Sajam and other dickriders trying to paint endless Yasuo/Ekko mirrors as SICK and CREATIVE was funny.The game really seems like every individual character was developed by different people with completely different ideas of how the game is supposed to be played.Skullgirls went way to hard on MvC2 style endless reset bullshit for my taste but at least every character in the cast fits into that scope cleanly
i'm almost out of bwonze in sf6 bwos i'm almost a real player
>>736580284A.B.A is actually the only character I really like that came into Strive nearly unscathed. I guess Anji got better overtime too, but he did start off kinda gimped and still lacks some of the fun stuff from +R.
>>736579968He always had a turtle you stupid fuck.
>>736581269Nobody likes Ingrid, you stupid faggot.
>>736581445Higher ups saw Tokkon's announcement and realized they've been paying millions of dollars for a similar project that's been stagnating for years. They were probably told after 10 years of "development"to publish whatever they had or the whole dev team was gone and the project was going to be canceled. And they better make some money ASAP Thus the comically absurd prices of shit in the game. The rotating shop, characters not just unlocked from the start. Marvel rivals and overwatch showed up you can sustain a game with just skins and cosmetics. And you'd think a company new to fighting games would want as much data as possible to help balance shit. Guess not. Speaking of the layoffs, one of the devs tweeted this in regards to the patch today. Which clearly means riot hasn't actually been working on the game for MONTHS and is just releasing shit that's been sitting around. The development of 2xko essentially ended with the layoffs in January. They're gonna release what they have already over the next few months (for retarded prices) and shut down the game.
>>736581551you'll have more League points than Punk in no time. 6 gives you superpowers!
>>736581694NTA, but as someone that actually bought and played A3MAX, I found her to be interesting and likeable.
>>736581694Case in point
>>736581694I like IngridI don't like Dix
>>736581694i like Ingrid but SF6 is two melted scoops of ass.
>>736581694i like her giant disgusting wet eyes in her new design
>>736581608It wasn't a key part of his character and animations till 5 retard.
>>736579410How do fighting game storage sizes even get big? There's no world to explore, it's just some models fighting in a pre-made stage background.
>>736581910cutscenes, all bloat in fighting games is cutscenes. sf6 has a fuck ton of them (2 for every character, and like 40 plot ones)
>>736581910Multi-language and uncompressed audio
>>736571351>soive>2xkuso
>>736580939her new design is so fucking bad, what were they thinking?
>>736581910You know there's something that bugged me for a long time. Both BBCF and UNI2 are like less than 17GB but for a game that has only sprites and low poly 3D backgrounds isn't that too big? I mean fuck, DBFZ which is 3D is only 6GB.
>>736580939do the graphics actually look like that? it looks like those how to draw anime books i used to see when i was growing up
>>736581778How anyone can trust Riot in current year is beyond me. Fucking League player will be the first ones to tell you how fast they will pull the plug on shit.I also play tcgs and have friends that have recently migrated to Riftbound and I just can't imagine investing that much in a game they will kill the moment any trouble arises.
>>736582118does rollback bloat file size?
>>736582091They fucked it up on purpose to sell you that $20 dollar skin that fixes it. Notice how non of her skins have that yee yee ass haircut.Its shit like this that makes me want to sue video game companies for their Jewish bullshit.
>>736582191How does that even work? Like a big ass DLL or some shit?
>>736581778Deserved. Shouldn't have stopped developing Legends of Runeterra (the true GOATed game) you dumb retards, lmao!
>>736582118I know BB in general has filesize issues due to the fully voiced visual novel style story mode, which is way too long for its own good and that literally nobody has played to completion.
I'm gonna jam bros.
>>736582486PS3 owners had to complete it to unlock Susan back in the day
>>736582118CF used to be like 50GBs before the rollback patch came out and compressed the file size down which is even stranger. It must just be all of the uncompressed audio files for the story mode bloating the file size. I couldn't begin to tell you why UNI2 is that big since chronicle mode isn't even out yet.
least obvious 2xko shill
>>736583627UNI2 is only 14 gigs but yeah, no reason for it to be that big when UNICLR is only 8 gigs in comparison.
>>736583694That potential S tier made him lose any credibility that guy could have.
SNK Fans are genuinely the Fighting Game fanbase with the lowest standards and expectations for their company. Really, it's like they're afraid to have any standards nor expectations for them at all. Maybe they think SNK would go bankrupt a 2nd time but permanently if they dared to demand better from them. SNK routinely does the shit that's supremely stupid and amateur, and SNK fans bend over backwards to say how X thing actually doesn't matter, or just turn reality on it's head by saying how actually retarded thing they did is actually a good thing. They had to pretend how COTW completely bombing despite have more exposure/advertisement than any SNK game, and doing things like putting in a famous Football celeb is totally okay and doesn't mean anything at all.COTW is basically a complete failure on every level, and destroyed SNK's already low reputation. In visuals/presentation is still behind practically everyone else and comes off as cheap for the vast majority of people, the gameplay doesn't click with the vast majority at all, the entire roster except for the classic characters like Terry, Mai, and Geese isn't interesting at all to the majority, don't even need to mention the DJ and Ronaldo, the first online beta of the game was an absolute disaster which drove away many who've already experienced SNK's shitty track record with online, and much more. No-one relevant makes content for COTW but Justin Wong. Max Dood does sometimes, but mostly only when he needs to make a reaction video. SNK really just somehow made the most unappealing product imaginable. And instead of SNK fans shitting on them and demanding better, they cope about how the gameplay is literally the best thing ever made(like they do with every other modern SNK game that fails to capture anyone), and about how everyone just has a vendetta against the company.
>>736583694>that potential S tierI see fighting game content creators are still doing their usual thing of hyping up upcoming games and acting like they're gonna be absolutely amazing GOATs that will save the genre only to drop them after a few months and then say they suck.
>>736583767>UNICLR is only 8 gigs in comparison?
>>736583948tokon absolutely makes sense as a potential s solely because the ip will naturally attract a playerbase on its own like DBFZ. but the other 2 lmao
>>736583694Is this the latest one? I get Strive is S tier but why SF6 too? Also Granblue and Tekken 8 in the same place is just fucking bait.
>>736583976I checked the filesize on my PS5
>>736584069The console version has less filesize wtf?
>>736584039because you can hop on sf6 at literally any time and have an online match within 1 minute
>>736584116Evidently.UNI2 is 2 gigs on here.

>>736584235This man has drawn Ingrid for how many damn years before she came back?
>>736584292It's pasta.
>>736583886Holy owned.
Patch notes so big it crashed Strives website.
just hit silver in sf6. the highest i've ever been ranked in a fighting game. i know its shitter tier but im proud of myself. im gonna push gold
>>736586159Congrats man keep it up.
>>736586159Nice job, anon. Who you playing?

>>736586357sagat, i've mostly been abusing tiger knee into throw loops and DI into heavy tiger uppercut to keep people away and then i spam fireballs and its got me this far. when you've spammed 20 tiger shots alternating low or mid they don't expect the tiger knee. this strategy is going to fall off very soon though and i'm gonna need to find new stuff
The more I see GGXX art, the more I despise what I see when I play Strive.I do enjoy playing Strive somewhat, but the character design is a disappointment 70% of the time I look at it
>>736586382Ouch
>>736586382this is the most massive fighting game patch i've ever seen
>>736586382>low profile is deadWtf
>>736583948This is why I hate most FGC content creators.>new fighting game releases trailers or whatever>WOAH DUDE THIS GAME IS CRAZY BONKERS WHACKITY SMACKITY YUMMY OOEY GOOEY SNICKERS >game launches>WOAH DUDE THIS IS THE PERFECT GAME I LOVE IT YOU HAVE SO MUCH SKILL EXPRESSION AND THE GRAPHICS WOAHH DUDE (is playing training mode)>game dies because it's very core ideas suck dick>Yeah, I was saying the whole time that this game had problems. Y'know it's a shame because it had really good ideas. The presentation was pretty good y'know they really just needed to listen to the feedback from the community and y'know I believed in the game and all, but I was a pretty big critic the entire time. I knew it was going to have problems, y'know.This whole hug-box FGC mentality of "every fighting game is amazing and worth your time and you gotta support it and wah wah" is incredibly faggoty. I have infinite more respect when I see some creator just give it straight and say some game they tried was shit. Obviously, I understand WHY creators would wanna suck off every game so they get treated more preferably by the companies and such, but it's clearly fake and lame.
>>736586442>this strategy is going to fall off very soon though and i'm gonna need to find new stuffThis is probably accurate. Keep up the work though.
>>736586568>standardized everyone to have their fastest attack be 5fYou’ve gotta be kidding me. Why are more and more games homogenizing things like this?
>>736586382>Literally nerfed everyoneTekkenbros...
How does this statement ->In Version 2.00, we aim to adjust the battle balance by reevaluating offense and defense to strike a better balance between risk and reward. These adjustments do not aim simply to tone down damage, but to make it clear what actions will have a greater effect in different situationsAnd the removal of Wild Assault + the introduction of Counter Blitz (a one button counterhit followup) make sense? Are they looking at Counter Blitz being a "defensive" mechanic, because it's not, it's a mini-autocombo with juicy rewards in the corner and it doesnt use tension. I'm 2% into the patch notes and im getting T8 season 2 vibes.
>>736586382>open patch notes>Chipp gets fucking nothing for the 100th patch in a rowI continue to sleep. This lobotomized character still feels like he did in the beta. Put this nigger out of misery.
>>736586382Holy shit whole RC got fucked.

how is jack o? i've never played her but i really like her design so i might pick her up on that basis alone
>>736587081>it took them like 5 years to do this I suppose late is better than never.
>>736586382>Delayed the entire patch notes just to say the word "homogenized" figuratively
>>736571409I know all the replies are acting stupid (for real) but the obvious shallow conclusion is that jam, a person whose whole life is about collecting material gain, now has a companion who offers no monetary value but adds to her life spiritually. I didn't want to have to say something so obvious but you retards really make me believe you are that retarded
>>736587457>Unpopular mechanic actually got removed.Meanwhile in Kekken 8...
I like fighting games but there's zero characters that I fully enjoy playing
I like fighting game characters but there's zero games that I fully enjoy playing.
i like jacking off to fighting game milfs but i also like playing fighting game milfs
>Our original intent was to make it an attack that felt intuitive to use. Over the course of adjusting the mechanic, however, its use cases expanded. While this did create depth to the mechanic, it changed into something that required practice and knowledge to use to its full potential.>As a result, it functioned as a powerful option in battle, but it would lead to greatly different results depending on how precisely it was utilized. LITERALLY, "the mechanic made the game have more depth and made bad players have a bad time, so we removed it", people really play this game seriously
>>736588340you faggots will complain about anything. NO ONE LIKED WILD ASSAULT NIGGA
>>736588340>UHM... THE SHIT MECHANIC THAT EVERYONE RIGHTFULLY HATED WAS GOOD ACSHUALLYThere is a limit to how contrarian you can get before it just becomes silly.
>>736588340Yeah ok go ahead and show me all the depth that it added.
>>736588442it lets you do combos longer then 4 hits without RC
sf6 tier list from sahara (capcom cup winner) and bonchan (goat sagat)
THEY KILLED THE AXL STANKY LEG
>>736571351>Faust can now interrupt Mix Mix Mix on hit or blockHuh, this might actually be really interesting for pressure and extensions. Can't wait to see what it means in practice>Overdrive now has faster startupThank god>Afro explosion no longer hits if Faust is hitBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOTHAT WAS GREAT FOR KEEPING PRESSURE UP IN WEIRD WAYS>Faust no longer shrinks while doing back crawlEURGHURGHUGHUHUGURGHFORWARD CRAWL WAS ALREADY WAY BETTER>Snip Snip Snip no longer has Throw InvincibilityWHAT THE ABSOLUTE FUCK ARE YOU DOING>Overdrive can no longer can RC'dIt's so fucking overWhy do they hate Faust so fucking much
>>736588678RC was gutted across the board
>>736588678half of those changes are universal tho
>>736588340Nah. Wild Assault sucked ass
>>736588678Command Grab Throw Invincibility was a universal change
>>736588678The last 3 are universal changes to everyone.
>>736588340>WA>more depthNiggers like you would actually defend heat if the devs had enough sense to take that shit mechanic out of Tekken 8.
>>736588531C for child predator
>>736588729>>736588739>>736588752>>736588758And? Just because it's universal doesn't mean it doesn't affect certain characters more than others, especially when they're not adjusted after the fact to help shore them up in other ways. Hell, they actually did the exact opposite: not only is Faust gutted pretty hard by how important command throw is within his scarecrow teleports, but for added measure, they neuter the go-wild nature of Afro a bit.
If Strive devs have the balls to remove Wild Assault, Granblue devs should get the balls to remove 66L.
>>736588856Not until they stop using the fucking meme shirt.
>>736588849hey buddy, just play +R, you know faust is good there
>>736589003He's a completely different character between the two iterations, and if I wanted to play Old Faust, I'd play his Xrd iteration instead. Just need to wait until they add +R's lobby system instead of the old cabinet lobbies. Surely, they're adding that, any minute now.
What are the odds big fat Fanny the naughty nanny is future DLC
>>736588608Fucking why, who even plays Axl to keep nerfing him
>every other fighting game gets nothing but buffs to everyone constantly>gg says fuck that and nerfs everyone based or cringe?
>>736589189based but the game is probably still cringe as a wholei respect them for trying though
>>736589189Based.Damage and aggression in that game were absolutely retarded, now I might actually get into it.
I haven’t liked Guilty Gear since Overture, the last good one
>>736589189Half based. It mogs SF6 and Tekken 8 latest patches sure but the more homogenization is pretty blatant across all characters. Otherwise, it's crazy.
>>736589189buffs or nerfs aren't what I care about. it's how balance affects how the game is changed, and it must be a big change. Nu-arc balancing is always a little bit in one direction and quite frankly, I don't care about it
>>736589189The only thing that worries me are the standardization nerfs. Seriously, why is every game trying to kill low profiling?
>>736589189Cringe, as most characters just got trivial nerfs. For characters that were already high tier, this means nothing. For characters that were already bottom tier, it's devastating. It's almost straight up humorous that Venom is at the bottom of everyone's list, and ASW is just like>sheeeeeeeeeeeit, you know what we REALLY gotta do?>nerf Stinger Aim>specifically roundstart stinger, I keep gettin hit by that shit.
>>736588856Strive devs didn't have the stupidity to make a shirt with WA after seeing people complain about it then wear said shirts to Evo so no granblue devs do not have the balls or the common sense to remove 66L. Also since pachi is going to be working on tokon his stupidity involved with granblue will not only stay but likely get even worse if cygames takes over balance the same way bamco took over balance for dbfz. ALSO they are adding a new mechanic that might be even WORSE than 66L.
Standardizing the characters makes the game easier to balance and work on. Maybe there's a smaller team working on Strive now and they decided reducing the balancing workload was necessary.
>>736589585>Inb4 the new mechanic is wild assault
>>736589629It would be the funniest outcome but at the same time the saddest death knell for granblue. Much funnier than sad though so I still want it to happen.
>>736589629Is that just the bravery shit already
Melee is just spamming A. There's no room to use your B moves. I'm playing an entirely different game than tourneytards. My game
>>736589629We had wild assault 0.5 we don't want it again.
>>736588340Their explanation behind the removal and reasoning behind the mechanic is stupid, but the mechanic, in combination with other stupid shit in Strive, made the game more obnoxious and watered down the gameplay even more so than it had already been from previous GGs.
>>736578626>It's still important we protest it.Says who?
>>736588531It annoys me that these people cluster so many characters on one tier; like is Elena really as strong as Bison, Ryu, Blanka, Akuma, Cammy, Chun, Terry, Juri, and fuck it, the entire tier she is in?
strive is still going to be boring as fuck
>>736571351I'm hype
>>736588340this is basically a very polite way of saying it was more busted than intended as it became overwhelmingly more prevalent and universal, and it would be unhealthy to continue to adjust the rest of the game around its dominancesort of like a certain mechanic from Tekken 8
>>736586382THE TRUE BACK TO BASICS
>>736590274apparently elena is ranked that high because she has good matchups vs ed and sagat the two best characters in the game. the list is ordered
>arcsys somehow manages to make strive even more braindead,less deep and easy to play at all levels with all patchesIm honestly impressed. Is this first fighting game to do this?
>>736588729At this rate, why even have it as a mechanic. It is clear they don't want people to use it for safety or to bait shit when that is half the fun of the mechanic.
>>736588678Afro explosion hitting even if you got hit wasn't "keeping pressure up in weird ways", it was you getting completely carried by a mechanic even after losing the interaction.
>>736590373You are retarded to think THIS patch makes it more braindead and even dumber to not pay attention the the garbage tekken 8 has been pulling which actually describes what you are saying.
>>736590505Dont deflect to pakikken.
Scrolling through this thread makes me laughHow is kappa still mindbroken about Strive five years later
>>736582118No real reason to optimize beyond getting the game to run since it'll get drowned out by the countless new releases. Arcsys's animation style actually requires good optimization to make the game run.
>>736590410>after losing the interactionThis nigga seriously thinks that taking the hit wasn't intentional during the interaction as part of Faust's weird pressureThis nigga seriously doesn't think that baiting them out of block to lose a trade to afrosplosion wasn't intentionalThis nigga seriously thinks he "won" the interaction when was still pressing buttons despite being ON FIREThis.Nigga.fr fr
>>736586945Come home, western man.
>>736590545I am not deflecting I am saying that he is or you are blatantly wrong about this patch making the game more braindead and that you'd have to be fucking dumb to think strive is the 1st game to consistently make the game more retarded each patch when that describes Tekken 8 in it's entirety as someone that still has a Tekken addiction despite hating the game whenever I get on it.
>>736586498I wonder how badly Pot hurt by this?
>>736590743why would it hurt him
>>736590695funniest fighting game ever made
>>736590701>blatantly wrong about this patch making the game more braindead>take away combos including wallbounce properties,character/system interactions and nuke all characters framedata Explain how this makes that already was barebones game better lol. Youre retarded and coping or you're muh neutral meme faggot.
>>736590817You can RC to keep the momentum from Hammerfall and follow with Potbuster. Latest change nerfs the damage from this.
>>736590626>I'm bleeding>Making me the victor
>>736590934Not the guy youre arguing with but taking away 236D into wallbreak across the cast is the literal dictionary definition of making the game less braindead.
>>736590935found a good examplehttps://youtu.be/yfDhu_vFgEk?si=DKSRmNYbuRt6Qd3C&t=261
>>736571351Strive is tranny garbage thoughever
>>736590934Taking away free and braindead easy combos with a fuckton of wall carry that have no business existing, such as the ones WA granted, and nuking frame data WITH ACTUALLY NOTICABLE NERFS is the opposite of making a game more braindead. If my main series got a patch like this I would be crying tears of joy.

>>736591778the only thing they did in s4 that was really notable was buffing Pot and GL into the fucking stratosphereGL can cancel one BT into another using his security gauge and Pot got a giant laundry list of buffs because they took his karas away... then they gave him his karas back without reverting the buffs there was other character shit like sol's routing using fafnir but i can't be assed to remember it all

>>736586382did they actually nerf zato lmfao, isn't he literally like bottom 5
>>736586382Asuka is going to be bottom 1.
>>736587132skullgirls is one of the best fighting games ever made
imagine defending strive for 5 years...
>>736571409They thought she hasn't much of charisma and personality because she isn't very popular in Japan. I guess so.
did any of the dlc characters get a new special move or do they really think nago needed a new one
>>736595625no one defends strive. everyone simply make fun of you and your obsession with strive
>>736580904There's no discussion because the game averages 157 concurrent players at any given moment
In Twitter I'm seeing so many SF and Tekken players mad again at Capcom or Namco because Arcsys nerfed THE FUCK OUT of everyone and removed every snowball shit they did which a lot of people wanted. Meanwhile SF only got small changes and Tekken for some reason doubled down on everything.Basically the true back to basics patch was for GGST.
>>736586382Holyshit. This is definitely a REAL patch unlike that Tekken shit. This is last patch energy. Final adjustments before Strive 2 announcement.
>>736578528>We've seen Dizzy's alt costumelink?
>>736595625SEXO
>>736595798At any given time there's more people watching a random Japanese due play Ryu in a 7 year old platform fighter on YouTube Live than every single person watching 2xko on twitch.
>>736595901>This is last patch energy. Final adjustments before Strive 2 announcementthis is an entire new season, this won't be the last patch
>>736595937I'm saying future patches will never be bigger. This is the final huge patch. This is the Rev2 of Strive (and don't you dare be a retard and compare gameplay). After this season we're definitely getting Strive 2
>>736575189They should have gotten Jam preggers and then she could defend an actual baby
>>736579968because 3D models make it difficult for a character who's supposed to only use one arm to swap sides (unlike 2D where they can just flip the sprite) so they gave him a turtle to hold instead of hiding his arm in his outfit
>>736595867>Basically the true back to basics patch was for GGST>the basics being S1, when the low tiers were just actually unplayableyay.........
>>736596538>the basics being S1, when the low tiers were just actually unplayableit's actually baffling how much arcsys doesn't understand how some of these characters eclipse the rest of the case lmfao, nerfing characters that were already at the bottom "just in case"
>>736596615>nerfing characters that were already at the bottom "just in case"It's just fucking funny>we're nerfing Venom>a bottom tier>so he isn't just spamming stinger>even thought it was just cuz it was one of his only options>but now he has QV pressure!>in a game with weaker airdashes and no teleport to get in and use it...Balance!
I finally did an almost perfect Gloomy Puppet Show in a real match. Killed a guy with it.
>>736596739>balls barely go anywhere from normals>can barely zone because of it>stringer nerf means his zoning is even worse now>the character historically known for setplay zoning
>>736596538People are hyping this patch up and all I can foresee is a tekken 8 situation looming over the horizon.As soon as people get their hands on the update, I expect massive butthurt.
>>736597164I don't like the look of the patch, but it's not going to be a Tekken 8 situation. With Tekken 8 they claimed they were going to make characters weaker and then the update proved otherwise, but we already have the patch notes here. They are making characters weaker, without question, this is not Tekken's 'This character excels on offense, so we made it easier for them to start their offense'. If people don't like this patch it'll be because it homogenizes characters and takes away the unique things that made them fun.
>>736594856Actual Sol players are kings of the Umehara DP.
>>736595621not in the last five years it hasn't
>>736596801No webm?
>>736596615Dude, ArcSys are the retards that kept legacy restrictions on many characters despite there being no air game in Strive or hard corner traps.
>>736596801You playing on collection or fightcade?
>>736577404I'll miss this design and her panty change. This new one sucks HARD.
>>736571351I like Happy Chaos
>>736597720Haha i just realized it's her arm cloth not her skirts. Hahaha!!!
>>736597559culture war and retarded censorship aside, GAMEPLAY wise skullgirls is very good and is a very active discord fighter
like look at this facethis ain't no jam
>>736597803If I wanted to play with discord troons, I'd play strive.
>>736597886if you wanted to play the vast majority of fighting games you are going to be playing in either fightcade or discord, but i guess you love being sf6, strive, and T8's strongest warrior
new patch is incredible, legit impressednot make airdash faster, remove the xboxhueg combo numbers and i'm set for life
>>736578382yeahyou could change that in like a week or less though
>>736571351Does update happen at midnight?
Strive with toned down damage might Just become the only modern honest fighting game on the marketGrim.
>>736598026>we haven't had a good true anime fighter since centralfiction
Play Uni2
>>736597567After looking at the replay I realized that it was a perfect Gloomy Dance. Never managed to do it perfectly in a training mode lol, the success rate feels very random.>>736597706Fightcade.
>>736573789but they retweet cute characters on twitter so you add a little bunny and get free advertisement
>>736598105Nice.
I grew out of fighting games because they aren't fun anymore like back with Street Fighter 2.Now it's all about hyper autism and getting ko'd before you can even recover from the first hit.Not fun.
>>736598438The new -Strive- patch went to the boomer direction.
>>736597809To be fair we had to live with Xrd's aaaaylmao faced Jam for how many years? It's tough going back to a Jam that's actually pretty.>>736597940When do we get the patch, I want it already
>>736598487>To be fair we had to live with Xrd's aaaaylmao faced Jam for how many years?jams model in xrd is almost identical to the one in strive, you are only thinking about her sprite art
>ingrid has some labubu mascot>jam had some quirk rabbit I hekin love safe designs templates approved by the dei consultants and chatgpt
The more i read this, the more obvious it is none of these people play FIGHTING GAMES, and if they do they do story and play 5 hours.https://steamcommunity.com/app/3787240/discussions/0/756177397086304906/
>>736572737Do trannies actually spend this much money on like 2 characters and some ugly recolors?
>>736571409>Chinese woman>Rabbit companionProbably some reference to Chang'e
i fucking hate xturd blazbluesque artstyle so fucking much
>>736598610I would be fine with weird animal sidekicks if they actually fucking did something. Somehow granblue is literally the only game that figured it out.
>>736598946Love how gg posers dont act like xturd didnt casualised and disneyfied the franchise first before strive
>>736584198The japs really do fucking suck at PC ports
>>736599083Have you considered actually talking to them instead of just acting like a twitter tourist?
>>736599065Bro your Eddie?
>>736599667People pretend Eddie doesn't exist after Xrd ruined it with the Blazblue tier redesign
>>736599767Xrd Eddie was still fine, at least he wasn't a literal fucking blob
>>736599831Eddie gets even worse when you see that this is supposed to be his true form.
>>736598068the subgenre is dead. Trad fighters are becoming more anime and anime more traditional to the point of convergence. It's the winning formula and what the modern audience wants
>>736597164Why are you saying it's a Tekken 8 situation when it's the complete opposite? When the patch notes for Tekken came out everyone was fucking livid. Saying they were lied to, and also doubled down on things players didn't like.Reactions to this right now are the complete opposite. Are you dumb?
>>736571351>Played some at launch, enjoyed messing around with Potemkin for about 200 hours >Burned out and moved on to other stuff>See stuff about 2.0 and find interest coming back again>Apparently I missed a golden age where pot wasn't bottom 2 Welp, that's a shame
>>736600210Pot is still good. Even after the heavy nerfs he took in.
>>736598710This came out to like 110 bucks over ~4 years, since I skipped the newest one? Not bad for a fighting game.
>>736600210The reason pot was so insane was the whole >grapplers need to take risksgot inverted into>you need to take risks against grapplersWhich was bizarre.Why did he have one of the best anti zoning tools in the game?Why did he have a full screen low that, if not blocked, let him right on top of you for pressure?Why does he have amazing anti airs?So many things from mr pot main battle director.
>>736600417I bought the game and all the DLC for $40.
>>736600634I am glad you got in later, anon. I enjoyed my time early on.
Zato, Faust, Pot and Venom should never be good
>>736600695I was waiting for them to say they were bringing back Robo Ky before I bought.
>>736600743I'm okay with Venom being good in Xrd, but I hate whenever Zato, Faust or Pot are good. Especially Faust.
>>736584000>tokon absolutely makes sense as a potential s solely because the ip will naturally attract a playerbase on its own like DBFZDBFZ had no retention after the first season
How will they ruin her design in strive 2?
Is Strive still 70% damage combo bullshit?
>>736601115The damage is lower than it used to be and they're lowering it again in this patch, but it's still a high damage game and will probably continue to be.
>>736601115This is what Sol gets in the corner off a non counter c.S while spending zero meter.
>>736589370>why is every game trying to kill low profiling?SF6 has a bunch of really good low-profiles, they're just useless because the game is about using crouching medium kicks
>>736601115Just wait for Tokon.
>>736601297It's a corner it. If I land a hit confirm in the corner, then I better take the round regardless if it counter hits or not. Don't like it? Don't get hit. You have fucking push block.
>>736601297>in the corner>off a non counter c.SOk fair but why the fuck are you getting hit out of Sol's cS in the corner in the first placeAlso this is before guts kick in anyway
Its not mahvel anymore Its tokon
>>736601439Its Tokel
>>736601439>>736601457>capeshitI sleep
>>736601483It has a loli.
>>736589370>Seriously, why is every game trying to kill low profiling?Because of war crimes like this
>>736601541Lolis are shit tier.
>>736589370I think visibility is the issue. Notice they don't really discuss sweeps at all, which should still do an excellent job of it.
>>736571351kys tranny
>>736601556
>>736600210you missed the platinum age where he was mega alpha prime top tier lmao
>>736601649Then what about a cute android girl?
>>736601765Whats wrong with Blanka crawl?
>>736589370>>736601661>fast low-profile>was a 5f option for Axl/Bridget on defense>linked into itself on counterhit so you wouldn't even have to go into sweeps>gives HKD with 2D>would combo into Wild Assault for characters like Testament>retained low-profile in recovery2Ks were insanely good and abusable as fuck, I'd press 2K far more often on Testament than 6P2Ds have worse frame advantage (and sometimes lack a good/safe cancel like Sol 2D), and they're adding proration to some like Jack-O 2D or Stun Dipper
>we reached a point where tekken and street fighter have better combo game and are deeper on both system and character interaction basis than modern anime fighters>sf6 also has more movement options somehow>both will have less honest neutral tooSo "anime" fighter subgenre straight up died and it just became art direction distinction huh. Tekken players got buttfucked because someone at Tekken Project wanted to make an actual anime fighter or some designer with sway is autistic otaku who played anime games his entire life kek.
>>736602058I also think CH 2D is going to be the main way we see counter blitz, since CH heavies and cS will definitely still route into their wombos. That would also mean CH fS and CH 2S go into it as well, probably.
>>736581445>>736579672Tag fighters are even a smaller niche than normal fighters and combined with irritating chain combos and greedy currency its dead.
>>736602089Tekken deserves it for killing Soul Calibur
>>736579672I feel bad they announced the laying off of staff because it genuinely killed the game's momentum.But also 5 screens fuck you.
>>736602204YOU WILL ENJOY 2XKO SPONSORED BY RIOT GAMES
>>736602128There's a bunch of characters that had absolutely nothing from peak range fS/2S, so I think that's where people are going to get them from, they're also usually better suited for counterpoking"Worst" case you run oki from 2D, whereas Counter Blitz returns to neutral if you break the wall
>>736601939Does Blanka crawl have heavier versions with corner carry and converts into full combo if he reaches the corner? Does Blanka crawl have a metered version that goes almost full screen? Does Blanka crawl combo into super from anywhere if he is at 30% health?
>>736583948>I see fighting game content creators are still doingThey all hyped up COTW too and that thing launched with like 20 people playing it,
>>736602252Lmao you got filtered so you are mad.
>>736583694>New Top Three is now SF6, Tekk..... -Strive-... okay aaaand Mortal Komb..... Marvel Tokon an unreleased Fight GamingFGC what happened to us?!
>>736602252... Linking EX Riding Free into SSBA is some pretty evil shit if you have Delta up.
>>736586382Did they kill Testament for no fucking reason?What the fuck is that Stain change, you have no way to reliably get two stains in a blockstring
>>736602306I would be pretty upset too if I was robbed by midscreen riding free delta clock into heavy triple attack, SSBA.
>>736598946I prefer Xrd’s sharper colors and shading but I hate the needle chins everyone had and prefers everyone’s Strive faces universally.
Tier lists in blazblue are useless Literaly every character has a meterless 3k dmg corner carry combo from 5a anywhere Every character has free style 8 way pressure that you can open your opponent with and rape mixups in corner Every character has some god normal to mash in neutral Only difference is some characters need to work more and need to know how to abuse their dogshit better than opponent to win Like whats wrong with noel or terumi nigga theyre fine if you know what to do its not like your characters get invalidated by whatever "top tier" your opponent is playing
>>736603089I hate Terumi because every combo he does goes on a million years and he does like nine overlong supers
>>736600879If they have costume selects, will you shut the fuck up about the redesigns?
>>736602238>Granblue get btfo by 2XKO for having more screensHow tf did this happened
>>736603089>tier lists in blazblue are us-carl
>>736603515carl is prohibido
>>736602089This is what happens when nobody plays anime fighters outside of Japanese arcades. Their decline kicked off the death of the subgenre and French Bread is now its last warrior.
>>736587783Getting a rabbit and calling it spiritual healing is on the same level as buying a goldfish and calling it your comfort pet
>>736602238Fuck this always cracks me up. The TOs are blatant shills.
>>7366035052xko had massive shilling behind it but it all disappeared in a flash with the team layoffs announcement.
>>736602089>tekken and street fighter have better combo game and are deeper on both system and character interaction basis than modern anime fightersWhen did this happen?
>>736602238They actually wanted to kick off GBVSR off the main room because they wanted ALL screens to be on 2XKO. They players on the GBVSR side actually complained about this at FF.On the other hand, Riot probably paid a huge sponsorship and exclusivity fee.
>>736604984wtf why isn't gordo turning green to get a full second to hitconfirm his combo??????
>>736604984That combo lenght is like any modern lvl3 super cinematic alone
>>736605207Thats why uni is boring asf
>>736605263Post one, I want to see
>>736605671Jiust google sf6 all critical arts or yekken8 all rage artsIts literaly all exactly 10 seconds long
>>736605901So there's going to be like a 6 second combo on top of the 10 second super? Sounds even more boring.
Rage Art needs to be removed imo. It's not fun to play around it either. why are gamers now a days scared of a little rushdown???? Did DBFZ mindbreak them that hard?
