SFV Lounge: It was coming and it CAME HOME. Ono is your Evo 2018 Chamion

Hey, Menat’s fun too!

…at least for boring me who doesn’t mind two button neutral with some orb throwing. Even without V-trigger her orb play is pretty unique

In any case, I think it’s mostly what you laid out before about the game itself that drags things down the most for you, with the character limits just being the icing on the cake. By the time you get to the fun bits (IE Cody VTII) you just don’t care anymore 'cause of what you had to go through to get there.

It’s okay though 'cause G will save SFV. Just look at how expressive his top hat is!

Not sure what the topic is but I forced a Cody player to whiff his VS after I did Juri stHK and I tagged him with my fb FTW

I did the same thing with Birdie…conditioning is conditioning I guess

Cody VS is so good that it’ll be the death of the Cody player at the same time. I really don’t like having to bait his VS but hey it gives a CC so w/e

Edit: Also Amrraed’s video still works til this day, thank online for that :^) I remember in months ago fighting like 3 R. Mika players that would also do uncharged stHK into EX Peach which worked 1 out of 500 fuckin’ times

Fun times.
TOs screwed up seeding so my 1st match against a super bronze Akuma didn’t count.
Then got matched against a super diamond Fang. Lovely MU for Gief.
Well, into losers.

Nah I do think characters like Dhalsim, Gief, Menat and like…the niche archetype characters like Juri/FANG are all unique to play because they’ve always been specialist characters.

But characters like Ken, Akuma, Nash, Cody all feel super samey. Their VTs set them apart, but their neutral is all super homogenised.

I’ll probs just rotate between Cody and Juri, ones fast and ones slow so I got a bit of everything. Not dropping him or anything, just sick of playing only him now.

I bet Rashid is fun to play, he is one of the few who actually have shit, in and out of VTs.

Okay, now this is a weird one.
The message is from Ryu, but the text says this is a message from a public telephone, and there’s a picture of Forgotten Waterfall instead of a picture of Ryu.

I agree but at the same time I don’t feel a sense of satisfaction just doing EX whirlwind and getting a turn for free

I don’t really enjoy the justdoit things

Ended up losing to a diamond/super diamond Laura. Put on a fight, but couldn’t take a match.
This was very fun.

The game has been boring as shit for a long time.

Its inherent to the type of game they made. Characters don’t really add much, just make that boredom a bit more palatable.

Play FLEX instead.

Mod, right?

Daily reminder that Falke needs more costume.
The fact that a proper, beautiful waifu like her is stuck with the same amount of costumes as those unholy, smelly and unsightly male characters have is pure injustice.

If I didn’t want to spend $60 on SFV being incomplete, why the fuck would I went to spend $40-60 on an incomplete FLEX?

  1. Let us fuck unicorns and bathe in goat milk. If it was good enough for cvs2 alpha strike 3rd Jedi ewok edition… no reason why sf5 shouldn’t have it.

FLEX has training mode, online and local versus.

Its a complete fighting game that’s fun and busted as all tits and has BAE GAWD Blair with footsies.

And yet has a bunch of shit locked behind having to pay $60 for it.

If I only care about Training/Online/Versus you know what I can play? About 50 other Fighting games courtesy of Fightcade and not have to pay a cent and I guarantee they’re all equally as good if not better.

Get back to me when FLEX is $5 and I’ll look into it. Just like how I only got SFV for $5 in the bargain bin.

Definitely need to see more Falke attire. I never get tired of looking at her. Need the mad scientists to hit the lab and create more unique shit if Capcom won’t do it.

Or you can play FLEX and press people.

FLEX just looks bad visually for me, same reason I never brought Infinite.

I only really play online so if the graphics look bad I don’t tend to bother.

FLEX is not on PC yet.
Otherwise I would have picked it because of SF EX nostalgia. Darun fills in the Gief function pretty nicely.

Then how about you buy it for me, because I’m not spending more than $5 on the game. It could legitimately be fun but honestly I don’t care. It’s not worth it at that price tag. I honestly can’t name a single FG in history where I"d be comfortable spending $60, and spending $40 on FLEX just leaves you at an immense disadvantage and is honestly stupid as fuck.

At least now we’ll find out if everyone was really pissed off at SFV’s business policies, or only at how poorly they were executed, because FLEX’s business is literally just a less dumb version of SFV’s business policy.
