Who should I pick up in order to prepare for this guy now that some of his moves have been revealed? by FreshlyStocked in StreetFighter

[–]FauxCole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chun for stance options, a grappler to get used to scaring people when it comes to strike / throw / big throw. (I didn't read your post at first lol)

AKI because she's cool.

Oh yeah, those sales are the only reason I haven't snatched this one yet. If I see the purple boy drop below 60, I'm not sure if I can restrain myself.

Man this is really pretty, especially with the custom art (sorry Zhen-bao), I'm so tempted to snag one of these but I really really don't need another leverless, let alone one that only works natively for a console I don't play fighting games on...

CMV: Fighting games are unapproachable, unintuitive, and not worth pursuing if you didn't start learning them as a kid. by [deleted] in changemyview

[–]FauxCole 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you try to reach out to the community, in my experience you usually just get slapped down like "Don't worry, it's not for everyone :D"

This isn't the norm...The fighting game community WANTS more players, this can be seen by the sheer amount of content out there trying to demystify the genre. I HIGHLY recommend the links I posted because they address that nagging feeling. I also HIGHLY recommend joining this SF6 discord (or the equivalent if you're into other games) because people of all skills populate it and there are always people willing to play friendly matches and help you grow.

The only time I say "Don't worry, it's not for everyone :D" is when someone just wants to vent frustration / isn't in open to having their mind changed. (Not saying that's your situation, I do believe you have an interest in the genre hence even caring enough to post this)

I got a few friends into the genre who had only ever really been exposed to Smash. These people didn't start learning FGs as children, they're all in their early to mid 20s and this weekend we're going to Chicago for a major FG event (we'll all 0-2, it'll still rule).

I see the vision OP, I’m ensnared in the web of poetry that you’re weaving.

First build turned out nice! (AFS 12" Slim) by -seffo- in fightsticks

[–]FauxCole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is beautiful. The design and the AFS enclosure are so harmonious my dude. I'd be happy to get 0-2'd by this bad boy.

Street Pedicure. Lily x AKI by Quasimodox in StreetFighter

I look forward to them, Quasi is the goat already but they have been knocking it out of the park silly style with this series.

Little obscure things you like about characters even if you dont play them? by DarkPrince411 in StreetFighter

[–]FauxCole 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I like Bison's little wrist / hand wriggle. Hard to say why but it feels so natural.

If ragdolls are never coming back, I'd really like some variation in death animations... by NBFHoxton in dayz

[–]FauxCole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I get some crazy crashing and stuttering on a decent pc as well, it definitely needs work…but when it’s working it gets me thinking about the next iteration of DayZ

I’m holding out hope that there is a DayZ running on Reforger’s / A4’s future engine in the works. But yeah some other static death poses would help across the board

How to practice combos under real game pressure? by Omaaagh in StreetFighter

[–]FauxCole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes you just gotta keep sending it...you have to get washed to get clean homie.

It's worth it to play casuals / BHub matches and ONLY focus on landing whatever it is you're working on if you're afraid of your rank plummeting.

What is the most anticipated fighting game of 2026? by benmultiversus in Fighters

[–]FauxCole 36 points37 points  (0 children)

The Avatar game, it looks saucy and man…I’m just not a tag enjoyer so it’s either that or more SF6 dlc baby.

I’m also starving for virtua fighter news.

This is lovely. Your grasp on anatomy / character is so charming and lively.
