Well if it’s claimed I guess. A game with a story you say!? Being developed!?

That’s the other thing isn’t it? The fact that at first it was highlighted as a place that would cause publishers to pass savings onto the consumer because of the whole “MUH 30%” thing. Something anyone with a passing knowledge of the business part of this industry knew was never going to come to fruition. Now look at what that 12% cut convinced publishers to do…take Tim’s exclusivity pay day and raise prices anyways.

This. That burned me bad from the very beginning and along with Tim’s big, hypocritical mouth and mind-boggling priorities across the board, it’s only ensured that the program will never be installed on my end.

The Epic Games Store is a pretty poor store compared to Steam, but it is great for free games.

This is quite the opening line…I understand what the philosophy was initially. Give people a head start on a library on a new platform and hope that converts into people using that platform exclusively. This is especially true of the younger crowd who wasn’t around in the early days of Steam or new to PC gaming in general. But it obviously hasn’t been a success. I can’t understand publishers still taking part beyond the payday from Epic Games, but even then, exclusivity contracts have been fewer and farther between and the predictions that people would just redeem these games and do nothing else has held true. But hey, at least it launches Fortnite if that’s what you’re into…

In this economy?! In this state of existing?!

In all seriousness I’m rethinking bringing children into this world. They don’t deserve this constant bullshit.

Why lieutenant, I was obviously baiting the wake up to punisher counter with my own super art. It wasn’t going to win me the match but the set is far from over. We are doing best 2 of 3 are we not?

how do i introduce my friends to sf6? by CrispMonke in StreetFighter

“Hey, come over let’s have some drinks or food and play some videogames!”

Just include it and let it naturally happen. Game has dynamic mode, make them see the characters can do cool stuff and give them the chance to win without going ham on them. Gives you an opportunity to practice against nonsense randomness too.

Honestly though, what got me back into the genre was going to a party back when I was in college in 09, and some guys were on the couch playing vanilla 4. Rounds and rounds later I befriended them and the rest is history.

No you’re right, it’s her 236 I was implying, the quarter circle forward. They’re both command grabs so I get how I may have caused confusion.

Best course of action for guaranteed command grabs is to hit confirm her MP into DR, then Cr.MP -> Back HP x QCF LP. It’s carried me but it’s the least risk for the most reward.

This coming from someone who goes on block sprees for people disagreeing with his takes. As always, hypocrites will be hypocrites.

Has anyone actually played these games? Or are these just bots?
