What, indeed. People that do this are those that play for aesthetics and not for game mechanics. Guess what kind of people are that? That's right. Those that have played fighting games for real for instance don't say this bullshit

I picked up Guilty Gear because it's the only anime fighter that people near me play. But the game has a shortage of cute waifus compared to BlazBlue. I'd rather learn BB but no one plays that right now.

That's crap. Fighting game players usually choose their characters by aesthetic and complain when people choose them because of mechanics, calling them tier-whores.

Start with Fatal Fury 2/Special, not KOF.
It's like wanting to get good at Capcom fighters playing Marvel before playing SFII.

Be fair, it takes at least 9 years for KOF to turn into Marvel. It needed to turn in to X-Men: Children of the Atom first.

>>4892515
I say start with whatever you like best and want to get good at. Down to '98 classic or UM, Third Strike or Second Impact. Whatever appeals to you the most, just play that. Fuck everything else for now. Every iteration of every fighting game has it's own little quirks so it's best to get the ones for the game you like best to be ingrained first and deepest. At the same time most fighters are kind of the same and once you learn the basics of footsies, rushing, 50/50's etc subsequent games get easier to get into.

So if you think you want to get into say King of Fighters, but think all the characters are lame and faggy, ask yourself why you think you want to get into it. Don't pick a game because it's popular, just pick what you like best and get learning.

>> No.4893250

It's usually the other way around, most players like the designs but not like the gameplay.
