shyt is skilled my guy. Gotta be able to input all that shyt. I miss option selects :umad:

nikka try and backdash on wakeup? BAM, got his ass with a sweep :wow:

nikka try and demon teleport on wakeup? BAM, Ultra OS :blessed:


stop playing, option selects gave the game a level of depth we aint seen in nearly a decade :sadcam:

You got rose tinted glasses.

Option selects aren't more or less skillful, they just a function of certain titles.

If you love option selects so much why aren't you playing Under Night? You have to learn so many option selects in that game to even play at a basic level.

I hope you realize this is an argument for SF4 being the scrubbiest:russ:

Option Select Fighter 4 has maybe the largest buffer windows of any fighting game ever:mjlol: This is why the SF4 romanticizing is hilarious because nikkas was having OS battles, buffering 4 different moves at once and playing it off as reactions:mjlol:

nikkas just be talking.

Everyone love option selects now but Virtua Fighter been dead for ages, and no one plays undernight. Both games chock full of stupid ass option selects for you to learn.

I don't like strive very much. Even that being said I'll just call the game shyt before I say its "skilless" thats a copout. The same people are winning, therefore some skill is involved. It is not a skill I possess for that type of game, but it is skill there. Same with sf5, 6, whatever.


Just say you don't like the game or its shyt. Stop trying to call shyt scrubby because if its so fukking scrubby and skilless go win that million :comeon:

You joking but I ain't laughing nikka:stopitslime:

My hate for SF4 and options selects started with the fact that I played Bison, a nikka with one half decent bullshyt ass option select. Mufukkin jab slide :stopitslime:that shyt gonna work once every two years. This and Bison was super susceptible to os's. I'm trying to play my lil footsies and gotta worry about nikkas buffering 4 specials and ultra so if I do anything besides block to death I'm getting hit but a fukkin algorithm :stopitslime::francis::camby:nikka F U K K Street Fighter 4

regardless how bullshyt you think a game is, and I consider 6 pretty ass beating 5 thousand other people is legit.
From the top 8 scorecards, they showed most players there had an average about 10 sets to get there (Mena actually only had 9 at that point; guess he had a BYE round). It's funny thinking about it that a simple 10-game hotstreak nets you to that point.

Keep in mind that this is who these devs are trying to cater to :francis: :snoop:


its fukking pathetic. Fighting games are the only genre where input skill is considered a PROBLEM and holding things back...fukking FIFA has motion controls...i fukking hate the fgc man...just the most dysfunctional and sensitive and coddled and weird motherfukkers ever

No joke, FGC are the biggest bunch of overgrown kids in gaming. Not even close. No gaming group needs to touch grass more. I legit left a few Discords already because some folks are far gone.

This ain't about fgc

When I say this is who devs are catering to it's those type of casuals. Nikkas in the fgc because they loves the games as is:mjlol: But you got these devs taking out shyt like motion inputs and crossups because they think they can gain an audience with these fickle smooth brain ass nikkas :francis:

It's important to understand that fighting games are hated by the majority of gamers, and that tweet is a glimpse into one of the thousand reasons why

I always think byke to where this started en masse, brawl.


I was melee fiend as young. melee sold like absolute crack rock. it was always going to sell like crack rock. and it was one of the most dense and technical games ever. They made brawl to dumb down and double dollars and it wasn't even necessary and it usually never is. These devs are half retarded and don't realize the IP will carry so much. DBZF could have played like hokuto no ken, still was going to sell offa the name.

same shyt with 2hko, but they want to placate baddies and shyt. IDGI

Sports, racing, and non arena shooter developers clearly do not give a fukk and make it more complex. Even platformers...the mechanics of Cappy in Mario Odyssey are easily the most complex in Mario history.

You're right as to why, and how fighting games are viewed, but fighting game devs are way worse and folding for those idiots, agreed.
