Right now I'm playing Arcana heart for the ps2. It’s a good weeaboo fightan gaem for 30 dollars and the replay value is worth every bit. But the problem is the game doesn’t have an online multiplayer option for me to play with other weeaboos. Not only that, the game was more suited for a PC release than a console release.

SF3, the good KoFs, SvC2, and all the Marvel/Capcom versus games for their soundtrack. Guilty Gear series also for the music. I liked playing Marvel/GG, but I always mentally sighed whenever I did a combo that took off 75% (or more) of the opponent's lifebar. Never took interest into anything past Sharp Reload for Guilty Gear XX. Or Slash, whatever. GG had a lot of shit.

Stopped playing Melty Blood after ReACT. All I remember is that Sacchin was a god. Type-Moon created it to be a Marvel clone with Tsukihime characters (even Nasu stated this) so in the end MB was a pretty dull fighter. The story mode is the best part of the game. For doujin fighters, I still prefer the Touhou ones, even though the balance is awful. They have great music and graphical effects.

Never tried Arcana Heart yet. I'd probably play that with my pants down.

The community really gets a bad rap over a few faggots like Sion. Overall it's pretty good. I mean, I've spent significant time at a lot of different arcades, and for the most part you always get that one regular who's a TOTAL faggot (ie he makes sure to play in the most obnoxious way possible, talks shit even when he's getting destroyed, makes excuses for every loss, sometimes he's the type who elbows people off the controls but that shit tends to stop after the first time he gets decked... you know the type) but everyone else is pretty cool. There is some faggotry at the highest levels of competition, but the community's a lot better than most people realize... especially at real arcades. Everyone is a bigger faggot on the internet, of course, and unfortunately the online fighter community is based around the two mediums of maximum drama: IRC and forums.

Something about trappan and rangin is just... Unfulfilling. You don't get any enjoyment out of the game, you just end up placing a methodical system on your whole play style, making it less about enjoyment, and more about winning. Same goes with Bridget, and, to a lesser extent, Axl. They both have an immense range, and Bridget has traps. However, what fun is there in spamming distance attacks and traps? That's part of the reason I main Sol/Order Sol. You can get right up in the enemy's face, and duke it out. You have room for improvisation and experimentation, giving you more play freedom, and necessitating on-the-fly thinking and response time. Compare that to the bland trappan of some of these 'high tier' characters, and it's a better experience all-round. Some of my matches with Slayer (AI or human, doesn't matter) are some of the most fun I've ever had in a game, just from the sheer speed of the matches, and the joy of battle.

There is plenty of enjoyment in sitting down traps or fighting with range. Fighting games aren't all about just mindlessly running towards your opponent and pressing buttons. There's a lot of gameplay involved in proper spacing and baiting. Although I don't agree that Testament is a pure trap character(he only seems that way from a newbie point of view), he can't exactly rush down people the same way that Sol can so he has other methods to fight.

Yes, I realize that. Why not do what you can to make money, right? My gripe isn't so much with the tourney players so much as those who imitate those tactics in small group settings so as to win in those groups. You're not gaining anything, so why bother? You're only going to become 'That Guy' (no relation to the kickass GG character of the same name), the one who only plays the game to pump up his gaming cred penis, and not because they actually take any interest in the title. They're part of the cancer that is killing fighting games.

Not just fighters; it takes a lot to even get me to touch 3D games in general, which sucks since that's where the industry is going. Lucky for me, I don't play anything other than rpgs/srpgs and fightan gaems.

Of course I like GG, but I haven't played it in ages. I've always been a Capcom/SNK person (moreso the former), and have been entertaining myself with those anthology discs they've been spitting out. Not to mention some old faves I have from the 90s.

This only happens when one person is interested in learning how to play a game while the others in a group aren't and just mash around. If everyone in the group likes the game and actually takes the time to learn it, then they should all eventually develop the same strategies that are used by the top players, since there's a clear logic to them. Also, most of the people that try to "pump up their gaming cred penis" aren't actually very good.

The part where you're wrong is when you say that trapping and ranging and such are just unfulfilling and unfun as if it's some kind of universal truth. Sure, if it's not for you, then don't play that way. Play the characters you enjoy in the ways that you enjoy. But to act like anyone who likes those characters or playstyles is some kind of faggot who's only doing it to be a dick is pretty dumb. If that's why they're doing it then sure, they're a faggot, but people enjoy different things and who are you to tell them there's only one "fun" way to play?

What I'm saying is if you miss that first hit, they've got you. Regardless, its not enough to redeem the low level of skilled gameplay. Look to Tekken for something better, though I'm not the biggest fan of its dial a combo.

>> No.756744

Tatari is pretty much right. I'm not saying that those who like trappan are faggots, it's a legitimate strategy, but doing tourney-level trappan is just stupid in causal-style play. It just takes the fun out of the game. I mean, I play chess competitively (albeit in small circles, like my college club), and I love manipulation as much as any other chess clubber, but something about doing it in a fighting game just doesn't appeal to me.

I'm not sure what you mean by tourney level trapping. Do you mean actually putting some thought into the placement of attacks, or actually playing carefully?

There is plenty of fun in fighting games when everyone is good. It's not like putting down Testament traps is broken either, it's very easy to disarm the traps(just attack the webs to disable them and jump over the trees). And he's very vulnerable when putting down the traps so if he's "spamming" it it's very easy to just hit him before the animation completes.

Unless you want to argue that actually learning how to play a fighting game is wrong and makes the unfun for people that you know.. don't want to learn how to play.

>> No.756790

When did I ever say I hated learning how to play the game? I've easily spent over 100 hours in MSPai--I mean, in practice mode, working with either Sol, Order Sol, or Ky, working out combos and developing my own. Everything I've learned comes straight from my own practice, and not from a list of strategies posted on some Geoshitties site about how to win every match. If the drive to win overrules the drive to have fun, you're obviously doing it wrong.

>> No.756796

Mark of the Wolves and Third Strike are still the best 2D fighters out there. Generally, Capcom makes more balanced fighting games, but SNK has better character designs.
Even though it has the undeserved reputation of the Poor Man's Street Fighter, I've actually come to like King of Fighters more than Street Fighter (Well, not more than Street Fighter III). I still enjoy the latter, though, especially the fact that Capcom can design a boss without "LOL HE'S FIVE TIMES AS POWERFUL AS YOU AND HAS CHEAP ASS MOVES". Kyo, Iori, K', and even Remy 2.0 himself, Ash Crimson, just are more interesting than Ryu and Ken, though. I'm excited for King of Fighters XII, not so much for SF4, I'm not a big fan of 3D graphics, they're pig disgusting.
