walk speed in 3S is very slow. The game overall is very slow, but the pacing is OK since there is no hard knockdown aside from Super Arts
the only tool you have in 3S is parrying, it’s not “so many tools”. I agree parrying is awesome and prevents some matchups from being completely broken. Just think about Hugo VS a zoner without parrying. would be a nightmare.

Sf5 has lots of similarities between alpha 2 and 3s, but it captures the magic of neither game.
Alpha had oppressive pokes and most things being safe on block and not necessarily giving up your turn. While also having no dash and fast walk speeds and small stages. The small stages thing is huge because it forces action or the corner. Sf5 has HUGE stages.
3s has parry, and parry opens up a huge amount of mind games from throws to slow moves when it’s technically correct to use fast moves, and fast moves when it’s technically correct to use slow moves, it also has a high/low game because of parry.
And throws are huge in that game.
Sf5 takes basically the worst aspects of both games and puts it in streetfighter. Some people like it because it still harkens back to nostalgia for them if they are wearing dark enough glasses and can delude themselves into thinking it’s 3s/alpha 2 with updated graphics and gameplay. But in all honesty it’s just a game where everything is highly nerfed and it feels like a step backwards in terms of gameplay.

5 is all about the esports.
3S is about as far away from esports as you can possibly be.
look at the collision for 5 and then look at 3S.
that tells you pretty much everything.
In short, 3S is about fun

Define fun
For some people it’s fun to sit in a corner and chuck Plasma for 99 seconds.
For others it’s fun to hug you a lot with a big buff character like Zangief.
Other find it fun to play midrange footsies with the power of spacing and buttons (yeah thats me).
To say SF3 is about fun and 5 isn’t, is just your opinion and not a proven fact.
I like it to play Ralf in 98 and press st.D over and over again, thats fun for me.
they don’t have fun while doing that (turtling, spamming the same move again and again etc), they just care about winning and feeling better about themselves. They’re losers, so they need something in which the can win.
many pro players don’t have fun while playing SF V, they play for the money.

How do you know?
Can you read their minds?
Any idea how much f**king fun Yukiko in P4 is?
A psychiatrist can’t read your mind. How does he know? He does. Pressing the same button for 90 seconds is not fun, it’s called OCD

OCD is fun for people with OCD. Winning is also fun. “Spamming” one move is a noobs way of looking at it. That one move can be used in multiple applications, with multiple timings for multiple reasons, from multiple spacings.
Perhaps not fun for you, but you aren’t them and vice versa.
Some people like legos and mine craft, I find both exceedingly boring.
To each their own. One thing to be said about “spammy” game sthough is they are more about your timing and spacing rather than mixing up your actual moves, and that makes them much more precise than games that stress simply using bigger and bigger movelists.
Of course it’s my opinion, this thread calls out for OG 3rd strikers =)
In the BornFree interviews Phenom, Bonchan, and may others say they are only playing the game for money. Phenom said if anyone claims the identify with SF5 they’re lying. Bonchan said “anything is better than SF5, really, anything”. Bonchan went on a semi profane rant in Japanese afterwords. Many pro’s say the game sucks in recent interviews and are in it solely for the money. There are no mind reading skills necessary when they go on te record saying the game isn’t good.

Your reply makes no sense.
We were talking about chucking plasma in fighter, not SFV in any regards.
I mean, you’re known for your blind hating on 4 websites by now, but pls do me a favour and don’t use my comments out of context.
lol he’s like the yin to Lone Dragon’s Yang.
Though at least Lone Dragon is about positivity.

Bonchan called the designer of Season 2 Rog a retard.
He isn’t making anything up.

I will not link to the essays he writes on the steamforums.
It’s basicly a giant pile of hate he copy & pastes into every thread since the Betas are out.
The best part was still: SFV has no content it’s shit.
Yesterday in the Tekken 7 thread: As long as T7 has Training Mode it’s absolutly fine!
Seperate people with valid points from blind haters pls. It’s not worth to support them.
Scrubbiest shit I’ve read all day.
This whole post is a lie.
You’re one hella dumb motherfucker that picks out things out of context and puts his scrubby spin on it.
Bonchan says he likes the game, but is disappointed in the direction the game is going.
Phenom said that he plays for the money and thinks pros that say that they have a deep affinity for the Street Fighter franchise are full of shit.
He wasn’t even talking about SFV specifically but you make it sound like that.
You and Za Fuuru are really taking turns in saying outrageously retarded shit in this thread.
Go back to EventHubs and the Steam game forums pls.
There’s a lot of people that aren’t OG 3rd Strikers in here. Boooooo
I didn’t even know Street Fighter 3 was a thing until I saw Moment 37 five years ago.
