But the thing is i really enjoy the exploration and study phase of trying new characters and games. I fucking around with Soul Calibur at the moment and basically bouncing around the cast and having a blast learning what makes all the characters tick. How to end combos that will get me into NTC with Nightmare. Stance cancels with Raphael etc.
It may not be the optimal way to git gud but what do i care. Its fun.
Random as fck, but Virtua Fighter 5 Final Showdown is a dope ass game.
I played it a lot when it first came out many yrs back, but I really wish I got good at the game. If I had the mentality I had today, I would’ve grinded that hard. The learning curve was one of the aspects I loved most about it.
Been jumping on SFV once every week. Basically, the urge I once had to hop on and grind away matches isn’t really there anymore. Been playing a lot of non-fighting games lately, which is always good.
And my problem is the direct opposite. I stick to one main for the rest of the game’s lifespan.
Everytime I try to work on a secondary, I give up because I prefer how my main plays and its really a lot of effort to git gud with a new character. Unless you’re one of my 09er friends with extremely solid fundamentals and a talent for knowing how a character plays.
And that’s the criticism my friends have of me. They are just too familiar with my character plus I lack matchup knowledge because I only stick to a main. And my main happens to be basic bitch Cammy.
I am extremely terrible with alcohol. Half a glass of wine and I’d be dizzy. Even a glass of fruit punch with some alcohol mixed in gets me dizzy. I suck. Lol.
