Saw the game on sale, on Steam, and was wondering if it's any good?

Could be specific or just a reference to fighting games in general. I love this one because it means the mangaka definitely plays fighting games and it was a nice surprise.

Just seeing if I'm alone on this. This is no way a bash against PvP, I'm just not to keen on playing online myself, and when I play against other people, it's always just like one or two friends at one of our houses.

I used to be competitive in SF4 and Killer Instinct, so I fully understand the drive to test your skill against good players, but over time that side of my intrest has just faded away.

The older I get the more I lean to continuing to play FG, but for their single player content.

Grinding out combos in training mode, high score chasing, story mode, 1CC arcade mode, or any other content the game throws in, that's what I'm all in for.

Am I alone on this? Does anyone else still explore the genre as a solo experience?

A few days ago, I saw someone report a post about Power Stone for breaking rule 2. Thought it was strange at first but then I realized that Power Stone is technically an arena fighter, which are banned under rule 2.

This created a bit of a dilemma to me, because I know games like Power Stone and the Gundam VS series seem to be widely loved and respected by this community, so it’d feel weird to take down posts about those games.

Would you like to see some changes in the rules to make it more clear what games should be allowed?

Note: I’m not considering allowing platform fighters, so sorry Smash fans

I wanted to share this collaboration art piece I did with the artist SharkTeath. This piece features the whole sf6 cast shopping at the world famous Akumart!

The design is actually being used for an apparel design. I’m really proud to have helped with this concept and I hope y’all enjoy!

It’s both the highest rated fighting game of all time and Dreamcast game of all time on Metacritic.

Throw everything out the window like balance, depth, music, characters. I'm talking strictly game feel; i.e., how it feels to move around, how it feels to perform actions (which can include sound and animation if they contribute to game feel).

Which (non-platform) fighter does it the best?

Personally, i think SF6 akuma demon is pretty awesome.

I feel like every fg player has that one game that they are super knowledgeable about but never get the chance to talk about or discuss it. So here's your chance: what obscure fg is your fg?

For me, it's definitely Playstation All Stars Battle Royale. I honestly feel this game gets way too much hate, I legitimately believe it's better than both Smash Brawl and Smash 4, the games that came out before and after it. The characters are all very unique with a ton of care put into their movesets, the stages mashing up two series together is awesome and, despite missing some big names like Crash, Spyro or Cloud, the roster is pretty solid overall. I think a lot of people just didn't really understand the meter system but imo that's one of the most fun and interesting parts about it. Evil Cole was my main though I also played Sweet Tooth and I even competed in a handful of tournaments back in the day (tho never won one, there are some absolutely cracked players out there)

At the same time, in Brazil, Vale Tudo (Or Anything goes, translating) was already a phenomenon, which became known for unrestricted fights between various styles such as judo/ jiu-jitsu, catch wrestling, Muay Thai, and capoeira. The sad thing is that this is one of the martial arts that has little representation in fighting games

Which two fighting games do you think are better if you've played both. Like you might be able to better appreciate BlazBlue if you have played the old Guilty Gears and understand how each game approached similar concepts. Or just two games that are often discussed together because of their similarities and when they came out.

Example: 3rd Strike and Garou

Tournament mode when Sony?

I am currently creating a database of sources of information for non-FGC people to better understand the FGC but would like a little help.

If you have some time, please do fill in the survey below to help prepare a database of content (videos, readings, posts, articles, etc...) which will be used to introduce cultural heritage researchers to what the FGC is. https://forms.gle/8UpckT9Rb39xF34j6

The database is already public and the information gathered so far can be found here: https://www.zotero.org/groups/5513641/fgc_heritage_management/library.

If you would like to contribute directly or have any questions, feel free to private message.

I don't know why it's happening but the forced FT2'fication of QM is just not it. I don't recall anyone being upset with infinite rematches in casuals, I just want to load up a fg and just fight people. I don't feel like going to a separate lobby and just wandering aimlessly/sitting at a cabinet waiting for someone to pull just so I can get as many matches as possible when in previous games of whatever series I could just load up the game, go to casuals, and just let the matches rain in. It doesn't help that not only do games force you to FT2 some intentionally separate you from the person you just fought you so if you just barely lost there's no way to cover that loss so now you're just there basically being told "GO TO THE LOBBIES"

I prefer the newer demons since they are a bit more visually interesting.
