Proper FPS games. There will never be another game like Quake.

It's versus fighting games by a fairly large margin.

lmao behave mate, you will reach competition standard in a fighter LONG before you reach top tier shmup scores many wrs took literally years, the current ddp daioujou wr holder in china has over 20,000 hrs clocked and played everyday since release in 03. Fighters are high though i agree but not a leader.

watchu talking about? There have been many games like Quake, even if you don't think they're as good, so many arena shooters. Quake single player is a lot more about knowing what to do than execution, if you're talking about multiplayer you're comparing apples and oranges.

That's not true even slightly. There are hardcore sf2 players out there still training and learning.

It's okay though I've long given up on expecting /vr/ to understand fighting games at all. Have fun with your delusions.

[Anonymous No.4386987]

Fighters have about the lowest skill ceiling of any games that people bother to play competitively outside of maybe modern esports

So at least on some level you realize your comment about meeting some "competition standard" is made up bullshit. That's more than I'd hoped given the previous troll threads like this.

Maybe one day in the far flung future you'll understand

It's unfortunate that the skill needed to be obsessed with arena shooters isn't particularly related to the skill needed to write coherently or persuasively.

Still a more persuasive argument than the one you're making. Which is to say none at all.

[Anonymous No.4387615]

I think he makes a good point. Arena shooters are deeper and have more credibility but no need to be autistic about it.

Shmups are the generally the hardest single player genre to reach a moderate level of success in. Roguelikes are probably second. There are lots of exceptionally difficult games in other genres though. The difficulty of a competitive game always depends on the skill of your opponent.

In terms of skill ceiling, there are plenty of arcade-style games where no one no one has approached the maximum possible score. These have skill ceilings that have never been reached, and some probably require superhuman skill to fully master. Any competitive game worth its salt will also have an effectively infinite skill ceiling. This is true even for many bad competitive games, such as MOBAs.

JRPGs, because they're the hardest to stay awake playing with their mind-numbingly banal gameplay.

[Anonymous No.4388440]

Because they're modern and popular.

Not him but you're retarded, regardless of the longest term players what matters in fighters is reaching a standard to play in competitions competitively if you take this criteria and put it side by side with shmups you WILL reach the level required to play in competitions for fighters LONGGGGG before you get anywhere near competitive shmup scores add this to the fact you have to concentrate in a fighter for a couple minutes per match whilst shmups = 25-40 minutes if 1/2 loops of complete focus making zero mistakes, forgetting nothing and executing extremely strict routing. I know this because i played street fighter competitively for years before i stopped to become a competent stgplayer now stop being a salty child who can't separate his feefees for his fav genre from objective analysis.

So it's like playing sheet music. Can't see why you'd want to compete in that.
