that DP vs ex zonk was actually pretty fucking lit though
Uni is growing, good good.
At least one good game gets the attention it deserves.
Also probs to Tekken, game has a steady increase.
Weird SFV seems to lose player while other games gain. How could that be?

Got a question for the people that played the granblue beta. Did any normal special move have an actual cooldown or do they all restore fully by the end of their recovery?
Tried to play the DBFZ story again. Was cool seeing Cell for a few mins, but I turned it off not too long after. Don’t think I’ll ever be able to complete it. Only 7% done…
I have a huge backlog of fighting game stories to complete. The last one I actually finished was Power Rangers lol.

DOOM 2016 is one of my favourite FPS’s ever, and Eternal looks even better. I can’t fucking wait.
Also, yeah, Turok was fantastic. Turok 1 was one of my other favourite FPS’s. #2 didn’t hit me the same but I still loved it. Would love to see another.

As much as I once enjoyed Blazblue lore, I have not been able to sit through more than an hour of anything post BBCP1. It’s just way, way too much abstract nonsense. Actually made me appreciate SFVs simple little story more lol.
This is where Im at with BB story too.
However, that doesn’t make SFV’s any less shitty.
DBFZ’s would actually be okay (and only okay) if it were like 5 times shorter. Its a short dumb story packed to the brim with padding.
The thing about uriens fireball is that it has a horizontal version. Urien can easily snipe people out of jumpins with it. This makes people not want to jump and allows Urien to throw his fireballs at will.
The problem… is matchups where people don’t need to jump to get over fireballs. Cammy, balrog, bison etc… basically non fireball characters.
Uriens issues as I know them:
-
aegis isn’t great on block. The mixups don’t usually come to much. Sometimes the do of course. Sometimes he gets a throw here and there. If he’s really lucky he can sneak in a shimmy or an overhead. But mostly no.
-
No conversions from his buttons and no range on his heavies. The heavy range is why he gets outfootsie by characters like birdie and Chun. But that’s ok because he still has his FB for those matchups, which imo are in his favor. His lack of conversion ability is what “forces” some players to go ham. Trying to win with st.mk or cr.mk all day won’t work. St.hp CC is no longer particularly good in neutral and he tends to miss his KD combo if the CC hit from range. This makes his dash in game more suspect and overall nerfed.
-
His AA is actually some of the better AA in the game now that lag has been reduced. But he still loses heavy to anyone that has a jumpin mixup, if he tries to play a traditional fundamental footsies game against them.
-
Pretty much everyone gets free meaties against him, but he isn’t alone in this, still though, that plus a 4 frame is always going to be a detractor.
He’s still my best character because he’s one of the best all around characters in the game. He may not have great conversion on his moves, but he still has that crazy range on his mediums. He still has a really nice damaging AA that gives KD and oki. He still has cr.mk xx aegis… which is ridiculously good even if not great on block.
He still has all these nooby forward moving moves that he can neutral crash and go ham with.
But nothing about him really makes him OP at the moment because there is no facet to him that’s like… yeah THAT THING makes him good. Aegis is the closest anyone can get, but that has to hit, and all you have to do is block low not get hit and v reversal/jump back after the block.

Yeah, that move lacks conversion range when compared to big button characters heavies. And doesn’t have the speed to contest with the smaller characters lesser ranged heavies. I stand by that assertion… showing hitboxes isn’t going to change a moves range.
But I mean people are still saying Akumas st.mk has some good range… lmfao.
The problem is basically that they wanted to much early on and dropped a lot later on.
It adds a lot of overly complex and unneccesary things to it, this was also the reason why Noel was constantly asking dumb questions in Chronophantasma.
Also a lot of things were never resolved in CentralFiction.
GG did it pretty good in terms of storymode and I do think Daisuke and Mori still help each other if neccesary.
A sum up of everything neccesary is easy and doesn’t take much, all the sidestuff, that adds to the characters and their motivation could be cut and you’ll have like 70% less Story right of the bet.
Was thinking about taking our Discord owner, who is also heavy into BB lore and try to write a guide or at least a sum up with all important infos.
But lets be real, all we have to know is that the Murakumos are awesome and need more attention!
(what might just be the case with the next BB. I suspect Noel,Lambda and Nu will take the role of the protags now. Well Noel always was one)

Same. Last Blazblue story I actually completed was Continuum Shift. Everything after that hasn’t kept my attention.

If you mean range Urien’s sthp is kinda mediocre in that regard
Though of course, range isn’t really the point of his sthp…having the perfect hitbox to crush basically any button is
The later Blazblues have more Kokonoe that’s all anyone needs
If only
Koko’s family ended up kinda messed up
At least Koko herself was perfect~
There are like 20 different timelines.
In one they are a happy family, that was one of the many possibilitys of the Continuum Shift.
Sad that her family ended like this.
Her Aunt dead.
Her Mother turned crazy from being stuck in a timeloop.
And her father, dumped her at the Kaka Tribe as she was a child.
She was such a cute child.
Despite her parents being… special. She did turn out really good.
Did you know that she actually hates it to send Tager and Lambda out to Missions?
Cause she actually doesn’t want them to get hurt.
She also seems to be the only competent head at Sector Seven… considering the rest of Sector Seven thought it was a good idea to release Azrael.
