SC’s fans and community complain A LOT. Not sure why. You don’t see SF4 fans shit on ST like it was never relevant.
Bitching is a symptom of nerd-culture in general. It’s intrinsic to nerd-dom, because a nerd, by definition, cares too damn much. FG communities definitely fit the mold and there isn’t a FG community out there that isn’t bitching about something, somewhere, right now. You mentioning the SC community’s name doesn’t make it any more or less prone to bitching than this one.
No beard, no buy.
I read that’s an old picture of him. Thank God if it is.
Goddamn, I never knew this game was that fucking deep.
Nice vid
Even then the term doesn’t make sense for something that a lot of people actually like.
Watching Aris’ video made me pretty hype for the game.
I can’t find examples of another FG community that compares to the rift between pre- and post-SC4 (and pre- and present 8WR website). Half of the players known for documenting advanced character strats disowned SC after 4 came out.
You no like the porn star moustache? He love you long time. And SC for that disturbing matter.
So now that you’ve associated a community with a particular type of bitching that makes them more prone to it than any other?
Whatever.
Anyways, Namco needs to give a date for this already. I’m getting +R vibes from this for some reason.
I always said the bitching is worse than other communities. You’re trying to process my words into a simple Internet argument. I’m not here to Internet argue, I’m wondering why the bitching and in-fighting in the SC community is so destructive. If you don’t know then don’t quote me.
LMFAO WTF is this shit? Abstracting and exposing arguments is an internet specific phenomenon now? And that’s BAD? I’ll do you one better - I’ll just put you on ignore.
LOL
i knew about the kilik MOTB but remember as glitches and exploits r found ways to combat them are discovered.
honestly i just despised step G and hwang being gone pissed me off even more. but variable cancel was worse.
Namco plz test ur fucking games gawddamnit.
Variable Cancel?
Soul Calibur II is not the best Soul Calibur game IMO but it’s still worth a play, especially if it’s online.
They better not gloss over all the extra single player content like they did with the 360 version of SC1, though.
Best version of Ivy.
There was never a way to combat MOTB and step-G kind of helped SC2 more then it hurt it in the balance department. Unless you were a Raph player, lol.
I think shit like Step-G/2G/JFC is awesome because it added more layers to the game (there’s reasons to not step-G/2G/JFC… Step-G covers less space and cannot be used to do 8WR moves, 2G loses to throws/lows, JFC… well actually there’s no downside to JFC except that it HAS to be from a buffered frame perfect setup) AND it still lost to things in the game which kind of made the mixup revert back onto itself vs, say, VC which literately broke SC3 into tiny pieces. (LM VC ringout from anywhere, Mitsu 22B VC, turning your character model horziontal, etc)
Quite honestly the only thing I would take out of SC2 is Avoid (which is a mechanic I just never liked, lol) and whatever BS it was that allowed Mina to break the camera (That I think is luckily lost in the sands of time)
The soul caliber series
Soul Calibur 5 is a fantastic game but it’s arguable that one of the early version’s of the game is more balanced than the current version from what I hear lol
