Play Rising. We have hot girls, with mental issues.

this is literaly AI art you can tell by that awkward hand placement on mai and that nonsesical background and juri face and the pupils in the eyes being all scrambly

cute

Fighting Games are dead for me.
I now know what aris felt when he left.

>>712541595
hey alright

Does anyone want to play SoulCalibur II on Switch 2 NSO?

mvcfags and sffags shouldn't play tokon fighting souls, all they do is bring hate and misery to the anime players and their games, and they openly admit it too. They don't like playing arc's games but insist they are the victims.

>>712540929
make the movement feel like im not moving around underwater

>>712542734
Sorry, tranny. You can keep Strive, Tokon is ours

I love tits

>>712541595
Play old games, wasting an afternoon on 16 bits fighters proved me the problem is in today's games.
Games were Street Fighter 2, Art of Fighting, Eternal Champions and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Tournament Fighters

thank you based mods for removing that filth. Also I hope we see more radical anime designs for the marvel characters, some are iconic like wolverines but when I look at hawkeye or any mage type superhero girls they look samey

>>712544976
if any of those games would be played on tournament level they would be boring as fuck

how is that fox kids 90s cartoon reject cool

>>712546856
it's moreso the moveset potential than the cartoon character. I want to do kickflip combos and shit.

>>712546462
Then play the only active SC game that features him >>712542370

>still no sagat trailer
I finally have a character I really wanna play coming and they won't fucking show him

>>712546181
>>712547180
looks pretty lame honestly
I was expecting something more like Arcana Heart Lilica but scateboarding instead of rollerblades

>>712549058
I don't play Arcana Heart because i'm not gay so I'm gonna need some more exposition on how she plays.
there needs to be trad 2d fg character that can chain THPS tricks but with a hitbox on the skateboard, can dismount the board, grab a truck and use it for weapon normals, kick it like projectile. do wall kicks etc. It seems fitting for an anime game but companies don't seem to like to implement it. Maybe Tokon gets Night Thrasher or something idk.

>>712549665
>I don't play Arcana Heart because i'm not gay
>but play some scrimblo smash clone
sure buddy

>>712549665
Been awhile since I played but she has really unique movement due to her dash forward and backs giving her massive speed boosts in either direction on top of changing properties of her specials. She also has rekkas, command grabs and more.

>>712549860
how did you get lead to that assumption? lmaoing at your chromosome count.
>>712549963
Oh ok. but she doesn't do tricks with her rollerblades?

still in awe that this is real

Dale wilson is in sf6??

Why are you not playing Fightcade, anon?

>>712551478
if he was in, his backstory would be like an inverse c viper where he actively avoids his dotter

Friendly reminder that /v/ pretends to like fighting games only due to politics / culture war and otherwise would shit on the genre as "tryhard garbage for autist, chnks, niggers and beaners"

>>712545615
SF2 is fucking sick

>>712552018
What does politics/culture war have to do with fighting games

>>712552018
Sir, this is a wendy's

>>712551792
No games I like are on there

>>712551792
because the capcom collection version is better

>>712551792
>Why are you not playing Fightcade
Beside 3rd impact, every other retro fighter is pretty much a ghost town filled with "3rd world" wifi warriors.
Soku mogs fightcade hard

Dropped Tekken shortly after release and I felt the itch to finally give 2D games a try recently.
From what I see, the games people actually play are Street Fighter 6, Guilty Gear Strive and Granblue Versus, can you spoonfeed me a little about each of them?
I'm really not too interested in Discord games honestly.

>>712551792
>Fightcade
>Pretty much any fighter that isn't 3S is dead
>The others are filled with hue player gods who've been playing since childhood with an arcade stick as toy

>>712554908
>SF6
Street Fighter with a couple really polarizing universal mechanics bolted on, especially Drive Rush
>Strive
Supremely easy game to pick up due to being a simplified version of Guilty Gear, however it is not super deep due to said simplification
>GBVS
Fantastic game however the currently played version Rising ruined pretty much everything that was good about vanilla Versus

Is there any interest for injustice lobbies? Not setting one up right now just want to know if people play it or not

>>712554908
I'm just going to shill Rising:
Relatively easy to pick up thanks to universal mechanics and simple inputs, as well as really slim movelists. Still enough depth you would want from a fighting game. A ton of characters on release, more to come. Beautiful, great music, soul-incarnate. Despite some doomposting, very alive.
Balance right now is a bit weird. It was very good some patches ago, then they buffed zoners, now they buffed grapplers. Still pretty good balance, you see a lot of variety in the top 8 of whatever tournament.

Is there any hope for CotW?

>>712555598
Hope for what exactly? Game's fun already imo

>>712555598
No. It's hard for any game to come back from a bad launch but it's even worse for fighting games

>>712555649
For players to come back. I hate waiting minutes between fights.

>>712556584
Last time I tried it was like a 10 second wait time (a week ago).

>>712540797 (OP)
think it's still worth getting back into GGST and the pass? i'm interested in Dizzy, Unika, and more than likely Lucy will be exciting.
that is, from a casual perspective, like if i can just queue up and get games against other casuals not just discord freaks.
for example, really enjoyed VS Rising but matchmaking literally just stopped working in EU after a couple DLC characters.

>>712557296
Sorry blud, same situation in EU is all discord freaks anyway go away

>>712557296
EU doesn't play anime fighters

>>712554908
Strive is a bullshit crazy anime fighting game where even weaker options on weak characters would make any SF character blush if that's your cup of tea

>>712555598
The game is pure garbage and I have no idea why faggots are shilling this as a "return to form for REALZ" game

>>712557941
Strive is basically SF, not really an anime game at all

>>712558389
Can we have just one fighting game thread with such low quality bait, anon. Pretty please?

Sorry for replying to it I guess

>We added demon flip to him so he'll bring Akuma numbers to our games, right
When nobody ever cared about that boring fuck

>>712558012
No idea what people on the internet are saying, but at my locals it's been the first new game in a long time that's actually popular with older players.

>>712558590
Will they even last until then?
Even DNF Duel had more day one hype and people hanging around for a few months longer, and that was without any prospect of future updates or characters.

>>712558930
>but at my locals
Where's that, over here nobody can get themselves to commit to this. Poeple were excited at the start but damn the game tired people already

>>712558951
DNF Duel did unique things and had cool character designs. CotW advertised itself as an old school fighting game but the only really old school thing about it is the balance, it's just another accessible game with shitty character designs.

Bamco should stop wasting time with kekken 8 and start making SC7 already

>>712540797 (OP)
i know a lot of people complain about the way that street fighter 6 looks, but even though i don't play 2d games, i think it looks incredible. The character designs, the physics, the animations, it's really a good looking game.

>>712562274
>I'm really not too interested in Discord games honestly.

>>712559210
Do you play SC6?

>>712561696
It actually begins and ends today since Xrd is the only game that matters

>>712562385
It’s easier to get matches in Plus R than Strive.

>>712562274
Blud, when he said
>I'm really not too interested in Discord games honestly.
he meant
>I dont want to fight against 1k hours autistic fatso's
:skullface: :skullface:

>>712563231
There’s plenty of new or intermediate players. If he meant he doesn’t want to play games with much execution or difficulty then I understand.

I bit hard harder to find them since there are no colored squares, i know you can use troonscord and ask them to just not pick their main, but it kinda defeats the purpose of quick play in the first place

>>712563868
Not as pathetic as you seething brisketfags who hate +R because Bridget gets called a male in it

>>712564313
Check their games before you challenge them. It’s one button.

>immediately resorts to strawman
What's wrong? Don't like getting called out for your pathetic behavior, nigger?

>>712564305
wtf

>>712564553
Right back at you sis. Nobody except your own kind will ever acknowledge the retcon as legitimate. +R will continue to be played despite your frustration.

>>712551792
I don't like flycast for cvs2 but I did play 3rd strike for a month on fightcade.
>>712544563
So ig they are not showing cvs2 on stream till top 16 that's lame.

>>712541595
You realized you were a completely retarded gooner?

>>712555305
>>712555370
Guess I'll give Granblue a try, seeing how it has a free demo too, but I'm not really feeling the character designs yet.

>>712557941
From the presentation alone, Strive is my favorite of the 3. It looks beautiful, many cool characters, neat soundtrack. It looks extremely fast and offensive/50-50 heavy in comparison though, I'm not sure I'd like it gameplay-wise.
The Tekken guys sometimes made fun of it for apparently having a weird community full of trannies too kek

>>712562274
I heard people talk about it. Different era of games, sprite-based games just have a ton of soul.
Do people outside of Discords actually play it though? My problem with niche communities is there being a high chance of having to deal with weird fat autists who try their utmost to be as unlikeable as possible and/or have spent the last 10 years doing nothing else but playing this game. I'm fine with being bad at something and having to learn for a while, but I don't have a humiliation fetish.
In a big game I can just open matchmaking and not deal with people too much.

>>712548508
Don’t worry he’ll just be normal>slime>throw like every other character

>>712551031
Best part is all the boomer seethe. SF6 newfags are genuinely baffled by it too, it’s hilarious.

>>712555598
No. Sticking with the MotW mechanics makes it feel too much like a 1v1 KoF without rolls. Making the lane switching mode the default would've made it stand out more.

>>712551031
Our heroes.

>>712564876
Plus R has a very efficient online mode, you just click Quick Match (not ranked because most don’t use that) and it puts you in a big lobby with everyone in it. I’ve never used discord in my life and I’ve played Plus R a ton this year. There are both players with 50k games and players with under 100 games, most are around 500-2000 games played so just check someone’s profile before you challenge them if you want to avoid the experienced players.

>>712565642
It's Alex

>>712554908
They all have kinda the same flaws but Granblue and Strive can still be fun at times. SF6 is just bland.

>>712540929
I love my nazi wife. I just got to S++ with her and it was surprisingly easy with this new ranked system.

>>712564497
Oh wow didnt know that cool..
I know if i starterd today im probably just gonna play just 1 char. and thats it

i wish i could enjoy Alpha 3
or SFV
or CFJ
Unfortunately Karin isn't in a game I like to play.

>>712558389
>>712558458
Strive is more SF than SF is, but not as SF as Granblue.
Very strange turn of events.

>>712565642
Our
FUARKING
Heroes

>>712565974
Most people do stick to one, which is a good idea when you’re starting.

>>712565974
+R is the type of game where you should be sticking with one character anyway.

>>712565642
Alex and Ingrid are sellers of this season

>>712563472
uh huh

>>712562385
i'm not a +r glazer but it genuinely has some of the best matchmaking of any game on the market

>>712564349
>muh bridget
every fucking time man

>>712564876
Strive is offense focused only in how retarded damage can get (one of the biggest flaws of the game imo).
You do actually get some very nice defensive options too you just don’t get to use them as often as you should because of said damage

>>712562707
>>712566841
Pretending that +R has Street Fighter 6 levels of simultaneous player is extremely dishonest.
Do you want to trick people into wasting their time with a ghost town so badly?

>>712564553
Don't bother anon there's a particular schizo that assumes anyone insulting or shit talking +R is someone obsessed with bridget as if people haven't been shit talking any pre strive GG for being discord fighters or whatever other reason way before bridget came to strive.

>>712567323
It doesn’t need sf6 levels of players because the online was implemented by actual fighting game players. It has more than enough for a new player to have other beginners to play with. This is a personal opinion of mine, but since there’s nothing to learn or improve with in modern fighting games I find them to be the wastes of time, and only find older games to be worth playing.

>>712567342
Interesting words from the schizo seething that +R gets played to this day without any need for discord. I have to wonder why you feel the need to be so angry and lie about it, if Bridget isn’t the reason? Did you get filtered by frcs?

>>712567557
>have other beginners to play with
Which is the issue: it doesn't have "other beginners"; it's one of those games whose entire population is nothing but people who have been playing it for 20+ years.
You're literally lying to someone who would rather play something with actual beginners and intermediate players.

>>712566484
Im talking about something like this
>Get bored with 1st babby fighter
>Later on find out someone else in the roster i deeply relate with after developing some front brain's grey matter
>Rarely play with said fighter anyway since i dont feel like to bring them out against onetrick ponies outside of noob lobbies

>>712554908
>>712564876
another vote for granblue simply because it's very easy to play and with the changes to ranked it's way less frustrating grind the ladder.
I personally hate going to the lobbies but you can probably find more newbies there than in ranked.

>>712567862
That’s weird because I’ve played it almost every day recently, and I see beginners all the time. I see more intermediate players than the players with years of experience, which I would include myself in. What is it about +R that makes some people so scared and angry? I don’t care if you don’t like it but I’m going to correct you when you say you need discord to play it or that there’s only super experienced players.

>>712567557
>but since there’s nothing to learn or improve with in modern fighting games
lol someone got bodied

>>712568323
I exaggerated, but there’s much less depth and more 50/50 situations. I got to master with multiple characters in sf6 and got tired of it in a few weeks. Strive might have a few characters with depth but it has too many ape characters and I can’t find a reason to play it when +R exists.

FGCtrannies need to fuck off and kys. Nobody plays this garbage. $50 for UNI2 is hilarious when you realize it died within 2 days of release and need to consult with the resident discord trannies or the dogshit threads on here with the same 40 year old boomer losers still playing lame anime shit

>>712568250
At this moment 78 people are playing +R on PC. If you think that means it’s flush with beginner and intermediate players you do you.

>>712568775
Fighting game trannies think 3 people playing a $40 fighting game is winning. Thats why this genre is dead.

>>712567770
I like +R I simply believe your paranoid fanaticism leading to you bringing up bridget unprompted and calling anyone shitting on it a bridgetfan is retarded when people have been making posts like these about +R, Xrd and other anime fighters being discord fighters and pyramid schemes before bridget came to strive.

>>712568775
It's actually about 20-30 people playing. And 1/3 of those players will be 2 bar connections.

>>712568968
It’s between the free version of Granblue Fantasy and Idol Showdown.
I get this guy loves +R’s gameplay over Strive’s, but this is just outright lying about its playerbase.

>>712569094
And of those 10 people they’re afk or alt-tabbed talking to their fellow trannies on the ‘cord, so… you get 4 people to play against.

>>712568775
You’d be surprised how many are beginners with only a few hundred games, and intermediate players are by far the majority. I’m not sure what fighting game you’re playing, if you play any, but all my matches were with one other player at a time. Well designed online goes an incredibly long way.
>>712569057
I can only find two reasons for such claims in modern times after rollback. Bridget, and gameplay filtering. I don’t care about Bridget but him being the reasoning some of them have for hating +R is enough for me to look down on them.

When will the era of baby fighting games be done? Has it actually succeeded?

>>712569094
20-30 on multiplayer at least. Everyone else playing arcade or training mode

>>712540929
Sure, does it have crossplay? If not, where's the community, and does anywhere sell it for cheap with all the dlc chars?

>>712569249

>>712569596
>the point
>your head
If you think beginners are people with hundreds of matches under their belt then you’re completely out of touch. A beginner is someone with well under a hundred games.

>>712569513
It's just /vg/ EU trolls that only play Blazblue CF. Don't pay them any heed.

>>712569218
If one the only reasons you can think of are Bridget and not that people just like making fun of anime fighters and their players like they always have there is something wrong with your brain
>>712569249
They have obviously succeeded starting from bbtag both not failing and doing better than any blazblue game and Xrd saleswise. Then dbfz, strive and granblue basically showing companies that people do want to play easy games even more.

>>712569472
yes retard one match can take at most 99 seconds assuming you actually run down the clock. If you play 100 matches it's 9900 seconds which 2.75 hours.
3h at any game is literally newfag territory

>>712569795
Ellie is Canadian

What's something that I can put as a title/bio/message that will make my opponents seethe?

>>712569642

Why do you think they “like making fun of anime fighters”? Because they aren’t actually making fun of anyone, they’re seething over the groups that don’t play their tranny games and don’t acknowledge the retcon. Is this your first time interacting with the “fgc”, most of which don’t play any fighting game just like the ones having a meltdown over +R?

>>712570032
>he thinks sitting in the lobby doing nothing counts as experience
lol
lmao even

>>712569810
OOOR people played dbfz because its a high quality db fighting game, strive because its gg, the music, and new players "discovering" gg after the success of dbfz, and granblue is on continual lifesupport from cygames

>>712570038
Kek

>>712570108
Okay? You’re not getting 100 matches in less than three hours still.

>>712569895
Something that implies you're new to the game

>>712570092
>they’re seething over the groups that don’t play their tranny games and don’t acknowledge the retcon
all 78 of them? get new material lol I’ve been hearing about bridget and trannies for 3 years now

>>712570289
okay? i'm only counting actual effective play time. 100 matches is 3h of actual effective game time without counting wait time between matches and assuming you're running down the clock every single time.
100 actual matches is most probably less than 2h when the average match lasts like 30 seconds.

>>712570430
I play it, enough people play it for there to be side tournaments at every event, the game’s old so it obviously won’t have as many players as the game kids get from their parents for their birthday, but +R undeniably has players and that is the source of this seethe.

>>712570453
I get that, but also telling new players “hey grind out hundreds of matches against opponents who at the minimum already have hundreds of matches played” is why +R only has ten more people playing it than Idol Showdown.

>>712570092
>they’re seething over the groups that don’t play their tranny games
The people who made fun of anime fighters now and then are SF, kof and Tekken players who specifically did so because anime fighters are considered tranny games overall due to the abnormally large amount that play anime fighters, ESPECIALLY the abnormally large amount that play +R, Xrd and Strive. Do you consider SF and Tekken tranny games? Are you in some separate reality where normalfags don't play those games?

>>712569642
>>712569923
it has nothing to do with popularity. Sakura will be in the game eventually. Makoto, who knows. every slot is trying to cover a certain niche of the player base. if they fill the DLC with 4 waifu characters, it will kill the game.

>>712570631
>the game’s old so it obviously won’t have as many players as the game kids get from their parents for their birthday
only one seething here is you bub, keep trying and maybe +R will have almost as many players as KOF2002

>>712570690
SF is getting increasingly tranny, so was Tekken but 8 was such a trainwreck that it killed that for the time being

>>712570803
I'm a massive advocate for Makoto ... But I'm sated by Ingrid, so I'm happy

If you want to play a game with a lot of players you shouldn't go anywhere near fighting games to begin with.

hows my p4abros doin

>>712570690
>Do you consider SF and Tekken tranny games?
Next time you boot sf6 up, go to the battle hub and see what greets you.
>>712570674
Not the one you’re replying to, but it has 95 players right now and you can easily play it online.
>>712570829
I don’t feel any negative emotion towards you except pity and a bit of superiority. You’ve denied yourself a chance at playing some really good games and you’ve even gone insane at the revelation of them having actual players and fans, your safety blanket of calling them discord fighters or posers has been ripped away from you, and you can no longer pretend you play easy games because you have to. I feel genuinely bad, but it would be even worse to not correct falsehoods about the game.

>>712571025
If a game has around 1k players on Steam along with crossplay it’s alive.
So really Granblue is the cutoff point lol

If I can get matches easily then I don't care if it has 3 players, personally. Rather play good games than popular ones anyway.

>>712571228

granblue has cross-play so the actual playerbase is way bigger than whatever steam stats page you're using

>>712571319

You are out of your mind to think there are anywhere near as much of them proportionally playing SF as there are playing shit like uni, GG(any) or BB because of that singular fag character you see once and never again.

>>712571361
Bruh you’re never going to convince anyone that 100 concurrent players is an “alive” game. I’m happy you live in your walled garden. You’re not getting actual new people to play the game though regardless of what you tell yourself.

>>712571494
I did not say proportionally as many, I said it’s getting increasingly tranny for SF.

>>712571571
nta but acr is plenty alive, you'd know if you actually played games instead of steamcharts. you can get a match faster than just about any modern game

So are we going to play anything in this thread or what

>>712571571
I don’t need to because apparently they come to the game just fine by theirselves. If a game has weekly tournaments, easily available online, and continued discussion, it’s alive.

>>712571654
A single non playable fag NPC that you see in a shippable cutscene and never again is not getting increasingly tranny. That is getting or having a strangely large amount of trannies playing like granblue and strive.

>>712572190
Pandering doesn’t really have anything to do with it I don’t think. Trannies will obsess over a lot of things even if they’re not actually tranny.

>>712572175
>i notice nobody ever has anything to critique about the game itself by the way, just >muh steamcharts.
To be fair that is the biggest objective critique you can levy against +R: the small playerbase. Everything else is a matter of taste. You either don’t like anime fighters, in which case arguing about Arcsys games is retarded to begin with. You prefer the way Strive plays, which is certainly an opinion but clearly one that is held by some. Or something even as simple as you like the pretty gwaficks of Strive, which is an extremely underrated part of fighting game appeal.

What’s odd about this whole argument is usually I see Strivers complain about Xrd which IS a poser game to the extreme. What’s the point of picking fights with oldfags playing +R?

I like +R wish arc did a final balance patch or there was an agreed upon balance patch by the community

>>712573024
+R is just that good that it’s hard to find an angle to shitpost against it so they try harder and end up looking retarded

>>712540797 (OP)
dont you guys have a general for this?

>>712573213
I think the balance is pretty alright. Obviously there are a few top tiers who are very strong, but there aren't any bad characters and even lower mid tiers are capable of all kinds of bullshit. Wouldn't mind a bit of a shakeup but chances are it'd just make things worse, so I'm fine with things as they are.

>>712572108
Ellie tends to make everything worse, constantly shilling for Tekken despite the fact it killed itself

I'm excited for tokon :)

>>712573224
I think that guy had one point about what actually constitutes a beginner player. As good as +R it’s one of the last games I’d recommend to a complete newbie.
The level of shitter is so much lower than you might comprehend that even a +R beginner would double perfect them easily.

>>712573456
ofc you would think so

>>712564706
i mean the guy did say joel
i was thinking joel hodgson of mst3k myself

>>712565642
alex is a success story. if you want a failed protagonist check out abel

>>712574169
Well, it's a game where you're going to lose a lot at the beginning, but it was my first 2D fighting game so I'm not very tolerant of other people making excuses. Not that I don't understand that someone else might not have as much patience and motivation to learn, but then just say that instead of "it's impossible", because it clearly isn't impossible if I did it. Took like 200 games to get my first win but 5 years later I can trade blows with my region's best players.

>>712574169
Maybe not for an absolute beginner, but someone who’s played enough games to know the basics of fighting games should be able to get into it without much trouble. As long as you challenge players with relatively low games played and maybe stick to easier combos while you get used to it. Definitely not impossible for a complete newbie either if they’re okay with losing more as they learn.

>>712574071
I hate how new players are basing their expectations on tokon with fighterz and not other arc games

>>712570803
Adding a bunch of waifus will absolutely not kill the game

>>712575297
I didn't say bunch. I said all waifus. And if you disagree with me then perhaps you can explain to me why DOA is not more popular than SF.

>Street Fighter 6
Overhyped, unbalanced because some characters have every option while others have none, devs don't care about the game
The pacing of the game could be enjoyable but the system mechanics completely ruin it
Very bland because characters either abuse the same system mechanics or don't work.

Instead of having reactable/fuzziable mixes, characters all do strike/throw/shimmy which is just a pure guess, and you have to do it on wakeup as well
Zero defensive options, but you have several metered reversals per character for some reason. You can't even jump throws and get a punish unless you have a divekick.
Drive Impact will have you play a stupid reaction test more than a real match until you get to Diamond

Top notch matchmaking however

>Guilty Gear Strive
Overhated, unbalanced because some characters are just absurd and their win condition is making you block once, devs are retarded but try to listen to the playerbase
Character variety is great, although some matchups can be obnoxious

Mixups are character specific apart from two universal options, which can feel like a lot of knowledge checks but keeps things unique. They're either slow, or they require meter/setup.
More defensive options than people claim. You can push block (FD), push block and block both high/low (deflect shield), backdash (4-6f of full invuln), or even Instant Block to get no pushback (pressing back 2f before an attack, can be attempted with no risk on true blockstrings, opens up more punishes).
Most characters have a metered reversal, some have a meterless reversal, and then there are also character/matchup specific defensive options

Matchmaking is absolute dogshit (ladder system, random disconnections), but they're supposed to overhaul it this summer

>Granblue Versus
Just try the free version
I didn't like it, but I can see why people would like it, it's slower paced and feels less bullshit than the other two

>>712574757
>Took like 200 games to get my first win but 5 years later I can trade blows with my region's best players.
Correct me if I’m wrong but when you say “first 2D fighter” it sounds like you already had experience with other games. A true noob would probably triple that loss total minimum before getting a win. I’m not gonna blame someone for tapping out after losing 600 times in a row.
>>712575227
Even learning the basics of fighters in other games equates to hundreds of hours of play at least. That can work for a game like SF6 where there is a horde of genuine shitters to play against if you’re a true beginner that you can get sloppy wins off of and feel you’re improving. I think that, psychologically, it’s important for newfags.

This isn’t really an argument about +R at this point it’s more a debate about what a casual even is. Perhaps tourist is a better moniker idk.

>>712576453
No you don't the best thing strive(and to a much lesser extent granblue) is that you get to play your anime fighter and never have to interact with community just like with SF and Tekken.

A few months of Tekken 7. Not completely new to the entire genre but not that far off either.

Me neither, nor do I have a problem with someone looking at these numbers and saying they don't care enough to give it a shot in the first place. Just kind of sick of the sort of defeatist attitude some people have, and the excuses they make instead of just being honest and saying they can't be bothered.

>>712542734
ASW stopped making games in 2015. Everything after that is trash.
After coming down from the initial announcement high, I've dissecated the Fighting Souls trailer and my indictment is that it will Strife 2 AKA DOUBLE SHIT

Old melty is the only anime fighter that still applies to

>>712577272
"at a meaningful level" as in going to tournaments or joining a community for high level sets

head to locals and you'll see everyone playing sf and tekken is fairly normal while the arcsys corner is full of dysgenic freaks

>>712576572

Dhalsim can do 4 way mixes and they don't matter because you can just parry them, his best mix is his throw loop just like every other character in the game

Its best game was mostly played in arcades, but it defined the anime side of the genre. GG is the most influential fighting game that isn't Street Fighter or Mortal Kombat. Let's just say install didn't come from strive.

Why are people jerking off about and hyping up Tokon? Did they forget that it's Arcsys making it? The company that was the kickstarter of the braindead, dogshit, casual nu-Fighting Games we're getting now?

>>712578726

Yes, they have higher standards.

>>712579967
I said Street Fighter and MK were more influential, but nothing else is. You have a very narrow understanding of the genre historically if you think Guilty Gear was an unknown game before strive. You should still be able to realize why strive had to use Guilty Gear as its ip.I hope you're just wanting attention here and aren't unable to comprehend this.

>>712580105
The character designs of SF are really good and iconic but unfortunately the game's graphics are just fuck ugly. Street Fighter 6 is probably the ugliest game I have ever seen outright. It's normal for a game to not look good or be completely unimpressive in its appearance, but it's very rare for a game's deliberate visual design to make it fucking ugly, and SF6 is the absolute king of that.

>>712578840
idk i have zero hype. dbfz left such a bad mark for me, and apparently strive is even worse

>>712580350
Let me guess, Strive and/or SF6 are your 1st Fighting Games, right?

>>712580219
Yes they are sexy dolls you can cum to but they aren't lovable and iconic waifus that people actually like, Capcom has plenty of those.

It's kinda funny how Tekken 8 and Sf6 are considered baby games despite having more mechanics and moves to juggle around in general than their last entries (not disagreeing with these) and how Strive is also considered a baby game because it's somewhat simpler than the old games but the said old games were complex as fuck and the new one is still balls to the wall crazy

DBFZ is on the WAS good front, the fuck happened there.
Strive is close to being good, just needs the stupid promised tower rework and a balance patch that shoots the annoying niggers like Pot and Sin in the knees

The more I play 3S the more it starts to annoy me. I feel like the game is only really fun in small doses and if my friends and I play regularly we all start getting tilted especially as we get more comfortable parrying. It feels so stupid trying to move forward in neutral and landing a parry because my opponent dared to use something other than cr.mk or sweep to check me. I don't get why it's praised so much.

>>712580393
holy shit you really are this deluded

>>712580524
It’s because the added mechanics in SF and Tekken don’t really mesh well with the rest of the game and just make it more retarded. Like SF6’s system mechanics have created a game where a super degenerate throw loop is the only mixup worth using for every single character.
Strive meanwhile is just gutted GG.

>>712581835
its a bad game. it flopped for a reason

Seriously though, what does SNK do now that COTW also failed to do anything for them? Really, I think this was the last straw. COTW was the last chance they realistically had. They've made too many dumb mistakes. They don't have any goodwill anymore. People make fun of them now. Any real place they could have potentially had in Fighting Games in modern day has been thoroughly taken by Arc Systems. I don't think things like them making better looking games matters at this point. Even if KOF 16 were to be the best looking FG in years, their reputation is too tainted for it to matter.

>>712581530
Pot is definitely getting shot since they just randomly put karas back without thinking, but I'm not sure Sin is getting nerfed a lot
Unika is in the same ballpark of retardation as Sin which makes me think they're confident that making strong, mid-range characters with easy conversions and mixes is a good idea
I just wish they would cull the high end of top tier down

>>712582924
what about venom

>>712540797 (OP)
Is there any hope, realistically, for Virtua Fighter? RGG shat the bed with Yakuza 0 and no one cares about Yakuza Pirates anymore. And the VF Directs have nothing in terms of content. "Oh, a new REVO patch, followed by console ports we will never release." "oh, here's 10 seconds of VF6 content that we shared a trailer of beforehand, plus an extra render and maybe some concept footage if you're lucky" "The moment you've all been waiting for: this international tournament we announced months ago!"

>>712583173
calm down you hysterical woman

>>712540929
Thanks but i already have enough mental issues with strive

>>712583098
Venom's just an adaptation of an existing kit for Strive and I don't think he's ever been super strong in previous games.
He might get buffed but I don't think he's ever going to be very strong in this game.
Between him and Dizzy being really inoffensive/low tier, I thought they were heading on a different track with S4 characters but now Unika's been released I'm not sure anymore.

>>712583497
He wasn't top tier but he was skirting around it in Rev 2
I think Venom is unironically pretty good apart from the damage which is a super easy fix in a patch.

SF5 is on sale right now, does it still have players?
I don't give a fuck about any SF6 character and SF5 has karin, sakura, akira and ibuki so it seems like the better game but there would be no point if no one plays it anymore.

>>712583173
Modern audience has zero attachment to VF. So unless they knock it out of the park with character designs, nobody is going to give a shit about VF still

>>712583764
Like 200 average, which can be enough to play casually in a game with good netcode but SFV doesn't have very good netcode.

He just feels like a worse Testament to me
Similar range, same niche of zoning with setplay on knockdown, a two step system that lets you be plus and a super that either wallbreaks from midscreen or gives you get a mixup on block
But his execution is harder (I can't 6K>Carcass Raid no matter how hard I try), you lose on neutral conversions from having Blue Wild Assault, his buttons are worse and most of all he has zero defense due to not having a reversal super.
Also nitpicky af but he can't do BRC instant overheads unless he uses jD, which makes it pretty slow.

>>712585235
He's going off the leak that said that Arcsys was making a Marvel fighter and that Capcom was making MvC. This leak also had the Season 3 cast for SF6.
I think the leaker was confused though. Probably heard Arcsys and Marvel and Marvel and tag fighter and just assumed there were two Marvel fighters in production. Its more likely that Capcom is working on either CvS3 or nothing at all.

No, there was a leak. Predicted SF6's S2 and S3, and now the Arcsys Marvel Fighter

>>712583605

>>712585235
leaks from a year ago that revealed SF6's entire season 2/3 roster and ASW making a marvel game also leaked capcom was making MvC. Capcom isnt going to release MvC in the same year as tokon and was already scheduled to be released a year or two after tokon (before that was pushed back to 2026 meaning it was earlier in development and will probably take longer to arrive).
>>712585682
he was pretty specific about ASW making a 1v1 game and capcom making mvc 5 before cvs3. I dont think anyone is dumb enough to confuse the two games. The shift away from 1v1 to 4v4 may indicate mvc was cancelled but it may also indicate that 1v1 was lame and there was a natural shift to tag fighter. 4v4 + anime style would have been the only way to avoid direct comparisons with mvc.

You enjoy a more grounded movement system with two hour long combos and poked that take over 2/3rds of the screen still giving full combos on nearly every character, a game with designs and kits so stupid it has a dedicated gimmick button or something not ass?

>>712588046
neither have players so it doesn't really matter. UNI2 has sexy school girls so i would prioritize that one.

>>712588519
She came out last week

>>712588046
what about +R

>>712588046
Xrd>CF>Uni2
but they're all pretty good and there's still a couple Uni lobby threads a week which is neat

>>712587565
I think it’d be at least as successful as Granblue’s fighting game, maybe more.

>>712588984
Christ, I have no idea what's going on in this webm.

>>712545615
Super Turbo is still awesome when its not fucking Claw. Even O.Sagat can be hype.
TMNT is great when its not Armaggon.

>>712587565
The devs are also fighting game fans themselves so I could see them endorsing it. Too bad there are no autistic fans like the vtuber ones that'd like to step up and make a fan game a reality.

>>712589094
Xrd is a stupidly simple game, I dont know what you guys have problems with
It literally just starts with a generic combo that ends in sweep and goes into projectile oki, the character clearly crosses up during the said oki, baits a burst to do combo that sets up another projectile oki but for high low this time etc

>>712589094
First interaction is Dizzy getting a low hit into a combo. Second interaction is Dizzy dropping combo and then blocking burst for a punish combo. Then its a bunch of pressure tools from Dizzy getting a few more hits in until Johnny breaks out of the corner only to be punished again by Dizzy using a system mechanic I don't remember the name of.

>>712589647
the second one is actually just a meaty mid, but timed to catch jump startup after making the projectile look like it's not going to meaty which sets up a huge combo in exchange for not really being mix

>>712589794
Blitz shield which is Strive's YRC but the quality of it is not universal for some dumb fucking reason

>>712540797 (OP)
where's the SC2/3 remaster with rollback? i just want to play multiplayer soul calibur without jumping through autistic hoops.

>>712589959
blitz is universal and also not the Strive YRC equivalent, you're thinking of Dead Angle

>>712589959
Dead angle is the Strive equivalent to YRC that costs 50 meter. Blitz shield is the universal 25 meter option.

Why is Dustloop so shit for Granblue? Is there a better information repository for it?

>>712591491
Not a lot of high level players. Also dustloop went to shit after the Bridget fiasco, so the community can't edit character pages anymore. You need to be a dustloop approved autist to edit pages now.

>not only do you have to learn your character movelist but also memorize every cheese move from every character in the game if you want to win

Wtf tekken

>>712545219
Same
Robbie Reyes Ghost Rider is another good indication, though. They're willing to be different

>>712580393
Anon people bought strive because it is currently the best or atleast 2nd best looking 3d arcsys game with cool guys and pretty girls that are also easy to play and because they liked the music. they used GG because they were working on rev 3 in 2017 but no one bought revelator or rev 2 but DID buy bbtag and dbfz so they decided to change it into strive. And off the top of my head virtua fighter, Tekken which happened because of virtua fighter, fatal fury and kof, which literally lead to the creation of Sol badguy because of terry, are considerably more influential

>>712594259
Yeah but Robbie Reyes is an annoying spic that no one gives a fuck about.

>>712540929
Too basic and boring for me.

>>712579160
/v/ is allergic to long combos but plays Tekken and SF6.

>>712594259
Love the Robbie Reyes rider skull man
>>712594513
I can understand thinking he's boring but how is he annoying?

>>712594332
Tekken is almost up there but not quite as high as Guilty Gear. Tekken is more popular but not influential on the genre. Fatal Fury I will agree might be equal or a bit higher with Terry and Mai, but those are the only ones and Guilty Gear has more characters that are popular. Sol, Baiken, and Dizzy namely, and they were already more popular than most other fighting game characters before strive.

>dizzy
>more popular than most other fighting game characters before strive
is this nigga serious

>>712594839
As fascinating as your genuine beliefs are, no anime fighter is influential. None. Good and fun sure but not influential whatsoever. The most you can say that GG influenced is that piece of shit skullgirls.
>Sol, Baiken, and Dizzy namely, and they were already more popular than most other fighting game characters before strive
Your concept of popularity is extremely strange. They weren't even more popular than the fuckin blazblue characters.

>dizzy, who just released in strive this year
>not more popular than most fighting game characters
I forget how much of fighting game discussion is with complete outsiders who have never touched a game before

>>712564779
this game awakened a fetish with me any art of this kick

>>712595379
Have you ever heard the term install before? You might not know this but Sol had that before Ky got it in strive, and that's where the term came from.

remember when dizzy was so popular she didn't even come in sign

Then even vaguely describing the character correctly.
>>712595467

>>712596147
What do you mean starting ggfags have been unrepentant dumbasses since the blazblue days.

>>712596071
a truly fine example of the pot calling the kettle a nigger

>>712596130
And you slipped up. I’ll admit making Bridget trans was a smart choice by arcsys. It got a whole army of loyal fans who have never and will never touch a fighting game in their lives but will defend strive to the bitter end. There’s not much else to say.

>>712596250
I never really payed attention to GG or anime games in general until DBFZ, and certainly not their communities. I know Strive and BB are troon infested but I didn't know why people hated the oldheads.
Now I do.

>>712596296
Take your meds. Bridget was the only character from GG anyone knew even 20 years ago because he was the source of most trap memes (the remainder was Boku no Pico).
>And you slipped up
You really are a cornball lmao

>>712596296
Ok man your haze of delusion is starting to get worrying. 99% of people who talked about or knew of bridget were or are secondaries but the character was objectively more popular and known than any other GG character on the Internet and especially in Japan.

>>712596296
Uh-huh.

>>712596551
I’m sorry you couldn’t hold yourself back from saying Bridget’s retcon is the best thing to happen to fighting games as a whole. I don’t have anything to add to the discussion since your argument is based outside of fighting games, but thank you for the laugh.

>you mentioned bridget therefore you lost the argument
we are reaching worrying levels of mindbroken

>>712596296
Why does this board and this genre have so many blatant secondaries that love to confidently and arrogantly go on about shit that literally anybody with the slightest knowledge knows is wrong?

>>712596570
If you’re not discord trannies trying to hide history, I’ll just say you’re wrong on that. Baiken and Dizzy are some of the most popular fighting game girls and Sol is a more known protagonist than anyone not from Street Fighter or MK, or Terry but he’s a complicated case. You’re either being disingenuous on purpose or you’re new to the genre. To say Baiken isn’t popular exposes that.

>>712596872
baiken only got popular with her xrd redesign and dizzy has never hung with the "most popular fighting game girls" like cammy or chun.

>>712596458
Anime fighter communities have always been the worst part about the games. Doesn't matter which series.

Jam has been gone for so long that I can't really comment on her popularity as accurately. I know girls from Genshiken cosplayed as her.

>>712597027
Who's that second from the left? I like her panties.

>>712596823
They’re 1v1 games with little rng, so they have a bigger fandom than playerbase. As you can see, Bridget being retconned made this problem especially large in the west and a large amount of strive’s fandom is eternally angry at old gg and the fact they’re still played. I would almost be surprised if they’ve played strive past Bridget’s arcade mode.

>Baiken and Dizzy are some of the most popular fighting game girls

Cammy and Chun are from Street Fighter which I already said is the most influential fighting game overall.

>>712596818
BlazBlue damaged these guys beyond repair and Strive utterly shattered them. They're beyond help.

>>712597123
what a shit game

>>712597123
>more known protagonist than anyone not from Street Fighter or MK, or Terry
NTA but he's not completely wrong aside from not mentioning pick-your-Mishimas from tekken
Who the fuck knows Akira, Ragna, Hyde, Hikaru, or Kyo anymore?

Strive players genuinely do not think about old GG at all so that doesn't even make sense.

>>712597421
I wanted to say please no more game warring but god damn I hate how long the combos are in Tekken 7 and 8 and how stupidly good the wall carries are

It's funny how this is why trannies want to pretend guilty gear wasn't always known in the fgc

>>712597529
It was the "say you play this game to look cool" during the 2010s for niche fighting games.
Sure as hell not anymore.

>>712597512
Don't worry I'm not gamewarring just posting whatever random vids I have. People should see how shit Tekken has gotten as an ex Tekken player though.

>>712597582
Because it was always a popular fighting game, one of the only popular anime fighters. Your attempt at revisionism is to hide a literal joke character's story, or you were fooled by those attempts.

>>712597664
I know that interaction was bullshit because I-No's divekick is just plain shit and not because Kyle is SSS tier but his 5K is so good

>>712597735
I'm not whoever you were arguing with.
>only popular anime fighter
Probably because it was the only real anime fighter up until the 2010s when more of them came into existence.
That being said, Blazblue's first game sold more copies than every GG game that before it put together.

The only popular anime fighter was blazblue, get real

>>712597830
Because Blazblue is more popular than Xrd was, Xrd was good but not as much as XX. Trannies will pretend arcades are a myth but that's were the majority of GG was played, so sales aren't a fallback here.

Call of the Wolves is fun enough but it will be dead after this Evo season, and nothing else is worth playing.

Why did they abandon this game?

>>712597735
>Because it was always a popular fighting game
HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA!
Blazblue came out of nowhere and instantly mogged Guilty Gear. Stop talking out of your ass, GG was never popular before Strive.

>>712598003
>HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA!
As I said, XX was the most popular era and it defined a large part of the genre. I think this might be having a negative effect on your mental health if you're typing like this. The fact you get this mad about something anyone who knows about fighting games would know is telling that you're new or just seething that guilty gear was always popular. I don't want to be responsible for the further deterioration of your mind because you're going to go insane when you inevitably see someone talk about +R again. It's funny you brought up Blazblue because your group always gets mindbroken by it almost as much as GG, but that would be a whole other topic, so goodnight and I think you should take a break.

>>712598360

What do you usually play that makes you think movement in Rising is slow?

>>712598467
Illiterate? I never said GG wasn't influential, it just wasn't popular.

>>712597960
Game was fundamentally shit. Busted as specials, blockstrings and retarded comeback mechanics, But dog shit mobility, small stages and lame defensive options, game was destined to die.

>>712598010
Has the game stopped sucking yet?
That's a joke as long as it has Heat it will always suck.

Should I buy SF6 or Tekken 8? Looking to get back into fighting games. I played 30 hours of DBSZ last year and 20 hours of MK1 the year before

>>712597941
Considering Guilty Gear cabinets only ever existed in Japan this is not a good argument for purported popularity of the series

>>712598910
Tekken 8 is hot trash right now and I doubt it'll ever get fixed.

>>712598910
> Looking to get back into fighting games
The answer is SF, has always been SF and will always be SF.

I see Ellie still shilling Tekken as hard as she can

>>712598910
Both are gambling simulators so it doesn't really matter.

>>712598910
SF6 is a safer bet considering Tekken 8 is a legit trash fire at the moment and the devs saying "we'll fix it we swear" doesn't mean much considering they've been screwing us over for a long time with no remorse.
Strive is also a safe bet

>>712597664
Based Ky. Sometimes I think about picking the game up again for him but thankfully everything I hear about it wards me off.

>>712601168

It literally is. It isn't AS "bullshit crazy anime fighting game" but its way crazier than Street Fighter or Tekken still.

>>712601872

>>712601787
Grubble yes, UNI no.

>>712601872
That looks fun. I miss when silly shit like that could happen in Tekken

>>712602114
UNI doesn't even have an air backdash or a burst and a good chunk of the cast is designed around dashblocking and only jumping in against fireball/long poke reads like it's Street Fighter. KOF games have more movement going on, do you actually play UNI

>>712598010
Tekken just looks so janky, awkward and terrible I can't understand why it's so popular

>>712601787
To be fair to Granblue it was trying to be weeb Super Turbo with Versus and only got a little saucier with Rising.

>>712602359
There's a lot of old (literal ps1 era) animations scattered around a non true 360 movement system in a 3d game, I think it's a fun and satisfying series but it does have it's jank. Add in the fact that webm has Lars with his gay twirls and slaps as opposed to proper punches or kicks most of the cast does

>>712602873
They have air options, the question is how they get to use them. Are you really just using assault or most your air options that often unless you're Seth
Like Nanase uses her hers like Baiken does neutral/backdash air tatami and that's about it for example and a good majority of the listed things and characters use them for oki as opposed to defense or neutral

Harada could fix Tekken 8 in an instant by adding Lucky Chloe but he refuses to do so for some reason.

>>712603113
>good majority of the listed things and characters use them for oki as opposed to defense or neutral
Not all of these are oki tools though, some CAN navigate through neutral using this so as long as you're not fighting someone like Gord with moves like Grim Reaper that catches damn near anything that isn't near the top of the screen.

most tekken players are gay though it wouldnt work

>>712575724
Are you me?

sf6 is not a fighting game

Do brisket has bwc or twp

>>712604196
It’s old school anime stigma from the 90s-early 00s. Ingrid is basically a psycho power magical girl and that is too Sailor Moon adjacent for these people (they all played and loved FFVII btw).
The best part isn’t just that these men who are now pushing 40 are seething over a cute girl, but they’re extra seething because all the zoomers and older alphas don’t share their opinion. If you’re not some crusty oldfag you’re totally ambivalent to her or even interested because cute girl.
Its amazing. Literally the funniest pick they could have made.

>>712597529
that's what bothers me the most with zoomers, they always imply that no one played XX or Xrd or even knew about the IP when in reality everyone played at least one of the GG games, that includes isuka,

Strive is dogshit of the lowest quality and zoomers have 0 self-respect.

The revisionism goober boomers try to do is astounding. No one gave a fuck about your franchise. Ever. It’s big triumphant comeback utterly flopped with Xrd and they course corrected hard to make Strive avoid the same fate.

>>712604541
Imagine vira dressed as a nun

>>712604687
That's not revisionism, even the normies knew Guilty Gear. Not selling millions doesn't mean it's a flop, i'd even argue that Strive has less players than GG did back in teh day.

You people are so disgusting and the genre doesn't need people like you. There's a reason why Fighting Games are dead

>>712604627
She was never out of place. Certainly not in 7

>>712604851
>even the normies knew Guilty Gear.
No they did not lol
>Not selling millions doesn't mean it's a flop
Okay but it still was ultra niche. SF, Tekken, SC, Mahvel…all more popular than it not to mention BlazBlue immediately outperforming it.
>i'd even argue that Strive has less players than GG did back in teh day.
Yes anon ArcSys’s second best selling game of all time behind DBFZ is actually secretly a flop compared to XX revision number 4!
No one likes you or believes you. Crawl back to your autistic little hole in +R and do not reply to me again because I know your response will just be bleating on about “muh Jap arcades” and “muh influence”

Ingrid doesn't even use psycho powers. Retards still didn't learn that it was mistranslation.
