Watching Hideyoshi matches is probably the most boring thing I’ve ever done, with how disgustingly low the damage on his piledriver loops are.
And remember, Kusoru enjoys this game.
There are some people here where i live that play the game (me included), and i have to say that we enjoy the game. The damage output is only low if you purposely try to go for infinites and infinites alone, for example hideyoshi has some good setups for resets for example
I kind of hate that PSAS ‘is totally different and cool!’ primarily because guys that are friends of guys that are important to the scene and run this site were hired to work on it.
I’m not against liking the game, but the ‘omg clockwerk and seth K!!!’ hype is silly and awful… it’s like MikeZ and skullgirls all over again.
Yeah, I know what you mean. I didn’t get that whole jizzing over Skullgirls because Mike Z worked on it thing.
If you actually got to listen to Mike Z talk, the guy has knowledge and understanding in the genre and he was extremely clear in what his game was trying to be. And as far as the mechanics go it’s HIS game.
Clockwork and SK are PR people, not even in the development team, so how is that even comparable?
Is not, but it xes, so…
“______________ member of the FGC”
I cringe every time I read it.
It’s like we are issued cards or someshit w/ member I.D’s and all that noise.
Wait, you mean we DON’T get cards? Then what the hell did I pay $39.99 for?!!!
The whole adapt thing is fine, but I told someone in a gootalks stream chat 3soe was getting a patch that “might” change the gameplay, and he told me that people will quit the game. Then I tell him to adjust and that it’s stupid to quit before the patch was even finalized. He then proceeds to tell me to “adapt” as if it was my fault it was being patched. All the while, in my head, I was thinking about this minority of 3soe players(all three of them) are quitting because the game is balanced.
fighting games:
> stupid gimmicks ( gems, cross moves, COMEBACK MECHANICS )
players:
> salt
> disrespect
> rage quit
> stupid ass customizations
Actually, I know this might not be the place for it, and people haven’t mentioned them since a bit earlier, but I want to try to open things in a civilized way to those that dislike Airdashers.
Say we take the whole “OMG the characters story and look is so anime!” out of the equation and break it down to pure gameplay, mechanics, and balance. I’d like to know what specifically it is about those things you dislike about say, Blazblue or Persona 4 Arena when compared to whatever game you play (while I’m not going to force you by any means to say what you play, I’d admittedly prefer it as to try and understand the mindset that you’re coming from). And, I’d kind of like to ask people who are in that boat if they feel there’s anything gameplay-wise that these games do right. I’m not trying to ask this in order to cause a giant argument to break out, that’s not my goal. I just want to try to understand where the other side of the fence is coming from in this debate so that we can kind of get a better understanding of each other and help get our scenes find mutual ground.
Because for all of them, plenty of minds were made up, and plenty of promotion was given just on the names, well before the ideas even began to be announced. (and I’m not about to enter the discussion of whether his ideas are good, that’s both a black hole AND moot, since minds were made up before that point)
I’m game for this 
It’s tricky because the subgenre has a bunch of things that go together that are offputting.
In general though, you could put it down to ‘bloat’ and ‘training mode’. This is an essay that I’ve written in many forms many times before, but the basic problem is that they’re needlessly arcane in a way that emphasizes 1p practice time over all other learning methods and ways of gaining skill. Beyond that, if you play them in without putting in the work first, they’re kind of boring as fuck.
**Not that other methods of learning aren’t present or aren’t important, but they’re far behind in importance for the entire range of most players’ skill.
it bugs me when people spread misinformed rumors like 3soe potentially getting a rebalance
Sengoku Basara X was a cool game with some nice ideas. I really like the way it handled assists: context sensitive assist and treating it as a sort of resource management. There were some engine quirks and a little character balance stuff (to be expected from the first iteration of an ArkSys title/series/whatver) that held it back. Overall it was actually not bad, and it’s a bit sad that we didn’t see another version of it.
Because a failed version of 3s with unblockables that weren’t in the dreamcast version isn’t a bad thing.
Stream chat never talks about the games (with any manner of knowing whats going on). I guess they can’t be included in this topic about “People that Play Them”
Direct question
Do you or that unnamed guy play 3s? Or care enough about it maybe look for a real answer to his troll misinformation? Do you know where to look? (Gdammit does gootecks have to have a tutorial on where to look for the answer…)
ReNic is very helpful, talk to Renic! He’s DrSub’s main man there, so everybody knows Renic!
Oh crap, read that wrong. You are the one with the wrong info. What gameplay change are you talking about, where did that come from, so we can all nip this in the bud right now. Made up fallacy and pretending you can be cool when you say only 3 guys play an old game and don’t think they’ll see your nonsense. Hey at least it got some of your argument jones out of the both of you! 
But you would’ve argued about some other crap anyway…
MvC2 on lower “handicap” damage sounds cool. Always did that with friends or family if they wanted to play. I’m by no means good but put together super scrubby Marvel 1 stuff magic series, occasional helpful assist, that was just too much and they had to go back to a less “stupid game,” to just act stupid jump in HK Sweep combo.
Just shut up
Lets “Adapt” to only talking about the facts. This will Avoid needless arguments, and “all this time in my head I was thinking I —”
All this time in my head I was thinking I should have accosted this gootecks gootalks a lot character and ask about featuring NicaKO, especially after seeing gootecks vs JR “3s revival” again, a new video, recently on a related youtube channel sidebar with all kindsa views them 2 dudes get.
I was using that as an example, I just worded it wrong. I never said 3s gameplay would change. in the patch. I said I hope they fix the issues in the game. I was saying they patched the game in the DC and it didn’t ruin the game.
He might’ve been thinking you were talking major gameplay changes and he’d be right to think people would disapprove of such. No reason to bring your internet -stream chat where its very hard to communicate- argument over here then. Let it go.
