@Sabre_AZ sometimes i just want to do down jab on the fly from crouch -> stand, why should i have to do ryu's denjin charge 😭 when you have to play around accidentally performing shitty moves, there's a problem

@Shady_K God, yes, thank you. They dont look out for us joystick using old timers

whoever designed Yasuo and Jinx fuckin cooked

peak design. wish i thought of this

i've watched this trailer too many times. i fuckin love it

when derivative works come full circle 🫶 (i'm going to pretend Zedd was an inspiration)

jackpot!

😍

@Bri4nF yeah, it's easy to post rationalize something like that. "wow that's such a good thing to do because it worked", ignoring how often you can just die doing that. someone doing it intentionally would not have the reaction du had, imo

@Shady_K Thank you 🙏 still had comments arguing with me that it was intentional too lol

this is why @Bri4nF is the 🐐 fg content creator. a lot of commentators would've assumed this backfist -> throw was an intentional play youtu.be/YtvbHg7Ecy4?t=…

they gave Bow the Divine Dash boon from Hades #MHWilds very unethical!

aight

One of the coolest mechanics in SF6 is the screenshake on block advantage on moves like Luke's st. HK and Terry's Burning Knuckle. That kind of targeted specificity in combat design is chef's😗

tokido's mastery of niche scenarios. he is definitely reacting to hit vs DI, like a god

@jchensor I will also die on this hill!

My soap box for the day: When we get hype for this, remember that we are getting hype for *execution*. To get those air parries and follow-up combo takes practice, timing, and nerves of steel. It’s not enough to just predict it. It’s skill! Execution belongs in fighting games.

HxH Nen Impact combat looks really good, like the next best thing to MvC3 with rollback netcode... but also looks like there's still a ton of low hanging fruit in the presentation/VFX department they need to pull to make it look appealing to a general demo

@Jason_GameDev that is interesting. if i had to guess, it was probably just a simplified philosophy of jumping state = no leg hurt spheres, and everything else is considered atk. or, they didn't have time to micro every char's airborne states

@Shady_K That sounds about right. Was curious on double jumps being excluded though while airdashes applied

Interesting to see the character's hurtspheres not being applied to like their knees/feet during a jump unless they do a move or dash. But double jumps look like they are exempt from it.

one of the most fascinating things about Akuma's strengths in SF6 is the lack of anticipation animation in his fireball compared to Ryu's. nearly identical frame data, but Akuma's is better because its startup frames look nearly identical to his idle, so you can't react as well
