After playing the sf6 beta I think I'll take a long break from fighting games. Every new fighting game, almost without fail, adds a terrible fucking gimmick that ruins everything but because the fgc is starved for literally anything they defend it. I can't fucking take it anymore, it feels like it's not about getting better, it's about learning how to cheese with the new gimmick mechanics and rob games off people. I didn't feel good killing people with chip damage in sf6 because they just so happened to have their meme bar reduced to 0 after getting hit with my move so they just get put into a instant losing state because Capcom thinks that shit is hype for esports. I felt like a fucking retard countering the armor move with my own armor move, it's not skillful it's just two assholes mashing armor move. I didn't feel good when I landed said armor meme move on someone not in the corner but they get hit close enough to the corner so I get a free wall splat and followup combo for free for no real reason at all.
Fighting games are fucking retarded now, I'm going back to single player until a fighting game comes out that doesn't have mind-numbingly bad mechanics to appeal to mashing retards and zoomers. Fucking gay ass lame genre.
This. I feel it takes away a characters individuality as well. No matter if you're Guile or Zangief it all boils down to getting an opening and do something like: armor meme attack->dash cancel attack->combo->dash cancel->combo->repeat until meme bar is depleted->super

It's yet another fucking dice roll. You have to constantly have one finger on the DI button because you never know when some retard will mash it. It all boils down to capcom thinking the average consumer is too stupid to figure out spacing and normal buttons.
It's funny. People refuse to play ranked where they're gonna verse someone like them and instead go to casual where you can get any skill level. Nobody plays tower in Australia for Strive so it's park only.

It only goes so far for Ranked. At a certain point the line gets blurred and the skill varies heavily. My brother is in Red in Tekken 7 (on PC if that matters) and I don't know if he's actually any good or if he's just grinding enough.

You're literally just complaining about low level, EARLY meta gameplay, retards. You played a beta for a few hours, maybe got to Silver or whatever and assume the meta is going to remain the same at all levels of play, forever. This is why scrubs cannot be taken seriously, you don't how these things evolve.
Hell, I'm not even a high level player, and I've managed to counter DI with a Super several times while I was in burnout in the corner. You guys just fucking suck and/or exclusively played against other people who suck.
Forward, down, down forward
WOAH SO FUCKING HARD HOLY SHIT LITERALLY IMPOSSIBLE FUCKING HOLY SHIT I FUCKING HATE YOU FUCKING have a nice day YOU GOD DAMN FUCKING WASTE OF EJACULATE have a nice day YOUR PARENTS WON'T MISS YOU DO IT FUCK YOU
You can visualize it pretty easily as pressing forward then doing a quarter circle from down to forward. This is a perfectly valid way to input the motion (at least in every game I've ever played, though there might be an obscure old game out there that wouldn't count it), and then when you're comfortable doing it that way you can clean it up by not doing the full quarter circle and instead stopping at the down-forward part of it. The reason you'd want to do that is because it's a little bit faster, which matters if you're trying to do it on reaction e.g. doing a rising uppercut after the opponent jumps at you to hit them out of the air
No one liked Seth at all, but they wanted to have all the villains in one game

That's because it's tailored to be easy to pick up. It's not a bad place to start at all (though if you do end up going back to legacy games I hope you prepare your anus to get destroyed by the lack of walls and heavily oppressive okizeme you'll have to deal with.
I know why I did that, I bet it was because I kept getting tagged when trying to jump vs your Fries and then forgot wLen was different lol. that + I wanted to shield > grab your jumpin j.C in the corner

Nah, I mean if you input 6248 as 63148 some games don't accept that. Most modern ones(as in like post 2006) do though which makes keyboard SPD really easy since you just roll your fingers on DSASpace as fast as you can
The new DBFZ patch made Trunks' A assist move further so I can no longer consistently do corner combos. Which means I have to switch to his B assist. LAME.
>land a match against other noob >forget what half of my characters' inputs are, let alone combos >get pwned
how do i stop being a brainlet? i've got my bnb execution down while labbing, but i can't even remember how to start a bnb in neutral. i literally only take rounds because i've gotten half-decent (against other noobs at least) at neutral/pokes, i have 0 gameplan for punishes.
If you can't remember all your character's inputs, you shouldn't be trying to do combos (at least not one that isn't braindead easy). Don't focus on being optimal early on, focus on being intentional, where you decide to do a thing and that thing happens. After you feel comfortable with all the individual moves, that's when you start learning how to string them together.
Learning something in a lab doesn't help you unless you're able to do the things in a real match that would allow you to perform the thing you labbed, which is why the best way to learn a game is to spend time playing matches instead of doing combo trials. Learn how to win neutral first, and then figure out what you want to do after winning neutral
play more. your issue right now is that your mental stack is overloaded. as you play more you'll develop flowcharts that will free your up your mind to think ahead.
for more advice you'd have to name the game and char
This happened to me when I played Xrd after the SF6 open beta. I even forgot about about Roman Cancels, FD and Blitz. Thankfully the muscle memory came back to me one day later
Because the people who play them are all sadistic shitheads that enjoy watching you struggle. Also losing in a fighting game just makes me want to find the guy who beat me chop his dick off.
I mean sounds more like you have mental problems than anything else.

I actually feel similar awe when I see someone play my character better than I do, or just does something incredibly technical. It's why I generally don't tend to get angry when someone better beats me because I can usually just steal tech that way and incorporate it into my own repertoire.

Them being males doesn't bother me, but one of them is a grotesquely designed grappler main power trip that would make Mike Z blush and the other is the most broken (in the sense of being bugged) character the devs have released since the days of early access. Really not a good look, I hope we get a balance patch (that does more than just nerf 2-3 characters and bring the power level of the non-DLC roster even lower) sooner than later
my laptop cannot play sf6 :~~* i am super sad my already small pool of people who i get to play in good ping would definitely disappear from fightcade lobbies, i still have a week, i can get a gaming laptop, while i do have a job and savings but i am having trouble shelling out ton of cash for one game, i would need to buy a pc + 60 dollerydoos game, here 1 dollar = 283 pakistani rupees, fugggg
i have monies, but i don't know if i should spend it, i am scared, and cannot justify since i have become really old and might not play it for more than 50 hrs
No worries, the games were good. Man this game's tough for taking breaks, feel like I get rusty if I'm not playing at least a few times a week. Didn't even want to try going for the fancy combos.
Yeah, I haven't played regularly in over a year at this stage and I feel so stiff playing it now. Doesn't help that I've been playing Xrd recently and that's throwing me off even more. Not to excuse my losses, I think you would have won anyway, but you can definitely feel the difference in playing the game when you're dedicating your time to it vs. playing casually.
Yeah it's that kind of game, you either grind or you stagnate at best. Really really fun though. Can't get into Xrd myself because I don't like how slow it is and how RCs eat inputs.

Donkey Kick is literally a Command Normal but as a special
dunno man, that shit can give you a knockdown or wallbounce
What if there's more inputs than just those?
Yuzuriha feels fucking weird to play, i just mash and get combos or big damage with her
t. Hyde shitter
I feel like I should learn her just to clown on people picking her with the mirror match when UNI2 comes out.
I'm also a hyde shitter.
I wish I could play this game again. I got spoiled by a single offline event and dropped off the face of the earth.
In fact I still check these fighting game threads just to see if anyone posts UNI even though I uninstalled it.
I assume you mean you experienced offline play and didn't want to suffer through its online anymore?
Yeah. I had too good of a time and when I hopped back online, I instantly could no longer block the things I was blocking at the tournament. It's crippling when I prefer to hold [1] and wait for the perfect mash.
Fair. I'm too lazy to play with my "local" which is like an hour into the city so I just preferred playing with anons who were stronger anyway.
Kek, i actually haven't played UNI in years
Been mostly playing single player games for some time
>Evo Moment 37 is one of the most defining moments in fighting game history
>Capcom continuously tries to lower the barrier or execution, making comebacks far less impressive
I don't care if there's a 1 button 720 I'm still not playing until they let me buffer an entire combo. so did they get rid of links?
They added an auto combo button for retards like you. Damn I just wish you would blow your brains off already.
even if that was a thing, you'd still get swept, grabbed and anti aired 4 times km a row, retard.
>zoomer dp is up punch
What the fuck wouldn't that prioritize you jumping first? Why did they change it to that when the original input doesn't even include an up motion
Presumably it would work like Smash where you tilt it instead of pressing down on it or you make jump a button and have option to disable up to jump.
But I’m not gay or trans…
Alright, I can play sum fightcade.
>filters you
Having breakfast together with my cute robot wife (yes we are married now) Sethanie, before she heads of to work at SiRN making killer refrigerators while i stay at home and to the house chores like a good subby hubby <3
you have brainrot, sort yourself out
rude!
You have too much fun living in your fantasy kys now
Sure.
For me, it's godzilla destroy all monsters
As someone new to the genre, guilty gear strive is kinda fun, felt like it was fairly easy to learn the basics of the game
That's because it's tailored to be easy to pick up. It's not a bad place to start at all (though if you do end up going back to legacy games I hope you prepare your anus to get destroyed by the lack of walls and heavily oppressive okizeme you'll have to deal with.
>lack of wall breaks

GGs
ggs. try to escape pressure with jumpouts before trying more risky things like shield and mash.
I know why I did that, I bet it was because I kept getting tagged when trying to jump vs your Fries and then forgot wLen was different lol. that + I wanted to shield > grab your jumpin j.C in the corner
Thanks for the games despite the skill difference between us
shield>214A is funny but you still should be careful with it cuz if F-Len baits it, you're eating 5k+
>can't play Guile for shit
>want to play Dee Jay in 6
Fuck
all I want to play are the grapplers and dhalsim. the open beta was shit for me.
>Seth
Ah! *cums*
I going to play SF6 with Zangief using modern controls
>instant SPDs
finally, keyboard players can enter the paint eating club
keyboard spd is easy in games with input leniency, it's only hard if they don't let you mush on the diagonals
you don't need diagonals for SPD in any SF game
Nah, I mean if you input 6248 as 63148 some games don't accept that. Most modern ones(as in like post 2006) do though which makes keyboard SPD really easy since you just roll your fingers on DSASpace as fast as you can
play me in soul calibur 2
The new DBFZ patch made Trunks' A assist move further so I can no longer consistently do corner combos. Which means I have to switch to his B assist. LAME.
just play dbfz. it doesn't have any of these esoteric Z inputs.
What does this say about me?
Ironically enough, you're not brazilian.
This quiz is weird
>so you like to play Rushdown ey?
Obviously you wanna play Blanka/EHonda

It seems these threads will only stay up if there's a ritualposter around so that's ok
Is this what you fighting game players call "whiff punishing"?
no thanks
why do people think this is hard?
I blame shitty dpads. SF4 is where those complaints peaked and guess what was the most popular controller at the time? The xbox360 one
but anon, I am a 360 controller user.
well, I retract my statement
Is this what you fighting game players call "footsies"?
I don't want to watch a cutscene and not be able to play the game just because I failed neutral.
Maybe you shouldn't get hit then?
Easy to not get hit if I don't play the games.
Yet you still got hit by this response.
At least Ganker isn't a fighting game. The games are a bigger waste of time than gachas.
Yes yes they're a waste of time unlike you posting on Ganker right?
I enjoy posting on Ganker. I don't enjoy learning muscle memory so I can pwn some 12 year old and lord my rank over him.
>I enjoy posting on Ganker.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Why would you post on Ganker if you didn't enjoy it?
That's what everyone wants to know.
>I enjoy posting on Ganker
Nice cope
play samsho
Don't get hit
Don't lose
Wow, not even with the decency to start the thread with some sort of simplified controls bait. I like the cut of your jib.
I do. I just happen to suck at them
>land a match against other noob
>forget what half of my characters' inputs are, let alone combos
>get pwned
how do i stop being a brainlet? i've got my bnb execution down while labbing, but i can't even remember how to start a bnb in neutral. i literally only take rounds because i've gotten half-decent (against other noobs at least) at neutral/pokes, i have 0 gameplan for punishes.
post a replay
If you can't remember all your character's inputs, you shouldn't be trying to do combos (at least not one that isn't braindead easy). Don't focus on being optimal early on, focus on being intentional, where you decide to do a thing and that thing happens. After you feel comfortable with all the individual moves, that's when you start learning how to string them together.
Learning something in a lab doesn't help you unless you're able to do the things in a real match that would allow you to perform the thing you labbed, which is why the best way to learn a game is to spend time playing matches instead of doing combo trials. Learn how to win neutral first, and then figure out what you want to do after winning neutral
play more. your issue right now is that your mental stack is overloaded. as you play more you'll develop flowcharts that will free your up your mind to think ahead.
for more advice you'd have to name the game and char
This happened to me when I played Xrd after the SF6 open beta. I even forgot about about Roman Cancels, FD and Blitz. Thankfully the muscle memory came back to me one day later
what could Ryu have done here?
>back, R2, triangle, goodnight
Very nice.
30+ anons how do you guys juggle a career and hobbies while also grinding in FGs
I just can't do it man
I work from home. Play fightans a little every day as it helps me de-stress. As for hobbies, there's plenty of time to play my guitar
How in the world do fighting games help you de-stress? They only stressed me out before I did the smart thing and dropped them.
How the fuck are they stressful?
Because the people who play them are all sadistic shitheads that enjoy watching you struggle. Also losing in a fighting game just makes me want to find the guy who beat me chop his dick off.
I mean sounds more like you have mental problems than anything else.
Maybe. Anyone who enjoys watching a cutscene when they fuck up surely has them too though.
It's a pointless skinner box. Every time I get better I just have to fight people who are even better than the guy I finally beat. There's no point. It's like swimming in an ocean without any land. No matter how far you get, you're not actually getting anywhere.
Maybe you should stop losing.
Seems pretty easy to me.
I stopped losing by not playing the genre. Gg ez. Hell I'm even pissed off even after a win if I was caught in a cutscene long combo.
Nah you're losing right now.
I'm not the one who fell for the skinner box with expensive ass dlc out the asshole, with a control scheme that either forces your thumb to turn blood red, or forces you to buy a controller that costs hundreds of dollars. Yeah brilliant, I really feel like a loser for not wasting my money.
Yeah you're definitely a loser.
>Every time I get better I just have to fight people who are even better than the guy I finally beat.
Because you're not the best yet.
I'm not going to be anon. There's always some fag with more free time or talent. And I sure as hell don't want to watch more gay fucking cutscenes.
So do you just give up instantly at everything in life because someone is better than you?
nah, just fighting games. I fought enough godlike players to know that it's above what my reflexes, muscle memory, and time are capable of. That and i just really loathe having to watch a cutscene every time I fuck up. Imagine playing Metal Gear Solid, but every time you're spotted there's a 30 second cutscene. I know it's a movie game but you get the idea.
Do you go to the gym and quit straight away cause someone lifts more than you?
Does it make you genuinely mad to see someone run faster than you?
No because I don't lift for enjoyment. I lift because it affects how I see myself, it's good for my health, and I enjoy it. It's also my only real excuse to go out nowadays.
I quit fighting games because other people are better than me, and because I hate watching cutscenes. Yeah people are better than me at fighting games. Good job.
So why don't you just give up?
You'll never be the best like you said so just give up like everything else in your life.
Loser.
I gave up fighting games. If you enjoy them so be it, but I don't enjoy watching long ass cutscenes because I dared to jump or stopped holding back for .5 seconds.
I guess some Zen-Ohs could be. I honestly don't know and don't care. What I do know is that Fighterz practically has no matchmaking, and I'd rather play anything else.
So why are you such a pathetic loser?
Only at fighting games.
Nah in general I can tell by your mentality and desperate need to validate yourself.
Not him but fuck no lmfao
weightlifting is genuinely awe-inspiring along with marathon runners and incredibly skilled artists. they motivate me to be better, especially with lifting since a lot of bloatlords are supportive. I don't feel the same way with gay ass time-wasters like fgs or vidya in general. i still play them but I'll happily eat shit for hours and hours on end
>I don't feel the same way with gay ass time-wasters like fgs or vidya in general
I actually feel similar awe when I see someone play my character better than I do, or just does something incredibly technical. It's why I generally don't tend to get angry when someone better beats me because I can usually just steal tech that way and incorporate it into my own repertoire.
Weightlifting, marathon running, and professional art are not inherently more "real" than fighting games. Professional fighting game players deserve the same level of respect as Olympic lifters and top level artists as far as skill and dedication are concerned.
>Literally children games
>Same level of respect as olympic lifters and top level artists
Damn, where is Ninja when you need him
>manchild picks up heavy thing
WOAH SO DEEP AND TECHNICAL
>Guy spams shoryus against a pro and wins
Yeah, I guess some have it better
Can you give an example of this happening?
Yeah, dunno the names because I dont give a shit.
But a nobody playing ken made a pro eat shit by literally spamming shoryus
Cant spoonfeed you because I dont know the names.
Probably someone here does.
>it totally happened
>I just can't remember the details
And if you're talking about the match I think neither player is a pro.
I remember the match, the guy who lost really wasn't a "pro" unless anon's definition of pro is anyone who has the courage to sign up for a tourney.
Yeah I know. By that logic I'm a pro cause I entered EVO once.
Holy shit anon can I have your autograph? You're like a man who lifts weights!
DSP got 4th at EVO one year...;^)
Didn't he get 4th in a version of the game nobody else played?
Pretty much, it was the busted console port iirc
Goalpost moving. I don't even like him but he did use to compete and at least make it out of pools a few times.
Doesnt count
Almost certain you're talking about Gandhi vs FSP. Seemingly competent player with links, setups etc gets absolutely mindfucked when some masher shows up to tournament and just randoms him out.
Why yes I play with my joystick all day. Respect plz.
Not those that play the easiest shit in the entire genre tho
Street gays can stay out of this respect stuff
Maybe someone with balls, like KoF fans or Strikers
>nooooo you have to play with the Bop-It! Not simon says!
Just face it man
SF is the easiest and simplest
For gays and pussies, even.
Gimmick Gear aint that far ahead either
I don't play fighting games at all anon. Was it King Of Fighterz? Yeah I enjoy playing a genre that's too hardcore for even its own players. So hardcore that even they don't play it.
I dont either
But I love how butthurt SF fags get when faced with reality
I've been lying this whole thread. I'm literally playing Fighting games between posts.
id respect professional fighting game players if they could do one pull-up honestly
Asian ones can. You only have to not be a fatass.
Now you're worshipping ecelebs and bugmen?
Holy shit we are going low
Guess you gotta hold on to something when your most popular game has only 5,000 players
Being able to do a pull-up is now worshiping?
Anon, what the fuck is your deal
Based
Thats not me
>wearing masks while you exercise
That just sounds uncomfortable. I've seen people jogging and I can already imagine the stress that comes from trying to breathe through those things.
it's not hard, you're a weak gay that i would easily defeat in kando
>kando
What's that? Also sorry, but I'd rather give my 100% properly than have to put on a silly mask (that doesn't really help all that much and creates more respiratory problems for oneself).
i would bust you open easily with my technique and youd be laiid out on the flipping sidewalk holmes
Mask cucks will get zero sympathy from me, anon. I only wear one when I have no other option.
i would double fist ko you like assassins creed 2 ezio style (soul calibur, this is an on topic post) double punch neck hole death
Oh yeah? I have the strongest technique of all.
No one wants Gankeraggots to track them down either.
A fireball
>godlike players
willing to bet 5 bucks that these godly players were some mid level flowcharters
the way you talk, those players were probably medium level players at best.
the fact that you think being in a combo is dead time, is so incredibly telling that you don't even understand what fighting games are about.
do you also believe whoever has slightly better reactions and better labbed combos is a better player?
I quit FGs in my mid 20s and replaced it with woodworking
Very high skill ceiling, actually rewarding, and relaxing (usually). Consider picking that up
Fucking nice anon. I exercise a lot myself. Gotta get those gains, but I can't afford the protein powder right now with my college bills.
Yeah at fighting games sure. I'll freely admit that. I lost.
How do you work out if people are better than you? You yourself admitted you quit immediately because others are better than you.
I feel like you're just making excuses and want to cope about being bad which is why you've spent ages defending yourself like the loser you are.
its not about fighting games. its your mindset that is fucked.
if you dont learn to enjoy small successes and improving at something and instead just feel accomplishment from reaching an arbitrary, non existent goal, you will always go through life a little annoyed
But think of how satisfying it would be to BE that guy kicking noobs' asses. That's what it's all about.
I can't really get mad at them. Must be a personality thing.
not the anon, but i got too mad at myself when I started learning them cause i was too retarded to do motion inputs and fumbled strings all the time when playing online which made me not have fun. I played on a ps4 controller with a d-pad though. I tried the stick on the controller but it was just as bad. I heard keyboard is easier but i am a poorfag with a pc that can't even run tf2
Don't commute more than 20 minutes one way

Don't have a social life
Pretty easily.
Dunno why people act like time management is hard.
fighting game enthusiasts
do you macro your combos with a tool like ahk or others and if so, how feasable is it?
No lmao. Combos are not that hard. The only macro I use is autohotkey because I want jump to be both on the up arrow key and on space
Go cheat in RuneScape or something you dumb shitter.
I'm gonna play nothing but Ryu and no one can stop me.
Anyone want to play fighting games?
what fighting games do you want to play?
I want to play Soul Calibur 2
and Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm 4 (but probably not a good idea)
and DNF (but i don't have PS+ so that'll stay at just want)
and Rage of the Dragons
and Idol Showdown (if it doesn't lag)
and Magical Battle Arena Next
and whatever you want to play
used to play street fighter 3 when i was 6-7 on my ps1, great times
also tekken soul calibur and mortal combat and various other beat em ups
great genre why did i stop, i dont know
Sometimes I forget that A3 was on the PSX. Wonder how much of a downgrade it is compared to a CPS3 board.
spent years playing it daily and driver 1+2, at least i dont have anger issues anymore
Forward, triangle, success
Easier than Hitbox now.
No.
>Nooo you're supposed to worship ecelebs and copy their entire playstyles
>Nooo you're supposed to spend 23 hours a day training 1 frame links
Which one is it gays?
How about just...playing the game
>Gets hits once
>Literally not playing until combo is over
>Depending on the game the combo is never over
Yeah, even party games like smash have more options and depth
Sounds like a (you) problem.
Yeah, should've studied my justin wong videos some more
Yes
>hit them once
>get to make them suffer with a sick ass combo that you practiced and/or send them to mix city
your loss I guess
>worship e-celebs
>copy their entire playstyles
I balk at the first one but who the fuck actually does the second one around here and what's wrong with it? Learning from better players is one of the more effective tips to get better. Who the fuck made this dichotomy for you?
Jesus this discussion is going nowhere
Okay.
I think inputs are SHIT
People who hate fighting games REALLY hate fighting games.
I just got done with a four hour session of KoF with the lads, I'm taking a break.
Oh no no no no no no non o weightlifting bros how could we get mogged so hard?

I love these dumb shirts so much.
Saw one in the wild once and it made my day.
A forklift has no GUTS and YAMATO DAMASHII (until someone eventually teaches AI to simulate GUTS and YAMATO DAMASHII)
i have a broken retard brain that compels me to FT1 everyone and then block them on the results screen.
help me.
you play GG, you can't be helped, you are mentally ill

Strive players are so inept
me on the bottom (freshly squashed)
Let me address the elephant in the room, what the fuck is wrong with Australians?
Seem big to me.
It's Australia though. She has to at least be as big as the creatures there that want to kill you.
So miniscule?
You know most of the dangerous shit here is tiny right?
No I don't know that because I'm a human being, not an Aussie descendant of rapists and murderers that could get arrested for a small titty anime girl picture.
You should try getting your facts from reality instead of 4chan Amerifat.
Yeah I'd pretend people were making shit up too in your shoes.
Ah is this what you incels call le cope?
That's out of left field anon. At the end of the day it's probably a good thing that e-boi is banned in Australia. I'm always all gung-ho about freedumb and shit but the reality is that it's better off gone. So forget what I said. Good on you murderers and rapists.
I'm going to go back to Strive tomorrow because I want to play Asuka
I'm avoiding Strive cause I don't want to deal with his shit.
deal with what? people who are trying out a new character and will suck major balls when playing it?
Basically that yeah. Would rather actual matches.
I cant fucking wait for asuka to come out bros.
I've never wanted to playa character so badly.
It sucks that sf6 is gonna release like a week after that, itll be so hard to juggle both.
It's going to save fighting games.
mobabbies are not playing a game with individual accountability lol
TFH just doesnt feel the same with two extra males.
I fucking hate Texas.
T. Californian refugee
Them being males doesn't bother me, but one of them is a grotesquely designed grappler main power trip that would make Mike Z blush and the other is the most broken (in the sense of being bugged) character the devs have released since the days of early access. Really not a good look, I hope we get a balance patch (that does more than just nerf 2-3 characters and bring the power level of the non-DLC roster even lower) sooner than later
I just want another story chapter
my laptop cannot play sf6 :~~* i am super sad my already small pool of people who i get to play in good ping would definitely disappear from fightcade lobbies, i still have a week, i can get a gaming laptop, while i do have a job and savings but i am having trouble shelling out ton of cash for one game, i would need to buy a pc + 60 dollerydoos game, here 1 dollar = 283 pakistani rupees, fugggg
there is still hope for you
https://twitter.com/FGCdraft/status/1659514396475813890?s=20
You could just play on parsec until you save up enough money
i have monies, but i don't know if i should spend it, i am scared, and cannot justify since i have become really old and might not play it for more than 50 hrs
If you have the money for a new PC then you should but since computer is a multi-purpose machine. It's not just for SF6
What should I play till sf6? SFV, Strive, melty or Idol showdown
Melty's the best game on that list
Anybody want to play some +R or Type Lumina? EU PC
I'll play +R for a bit, but I'm pretty out of practice.

GGs
Thanks for playing, sorry for the trouble with getting the matches started.
No worries, the games were good. Man this game's tough for taking breaks, feel like I get rusty if I'm not playing at least a few times a week. Didn't even want to try going for the fancy combos.
Yeah, I haven't played regularly in over a year at this stage and I feel so stiff playing it now. Doesn't help that I've been playing Xrd recently and that's throwing me off even more. Not to excuse my losses, I think you would have won anyway, but you can definitely feel the difference in playing the game when you're dedicating your time to it vs. playing casually.
Yeah it's that kind of game, you either grind or you stagnate at best. Really really fun though. Can't get into Xrd myself because I don't like how slow it is and how RCs eat inputs.
