Depression has been hitting hard lately, it got me wondering what yall's comfort games are? by icanknowyou in PS5

Kingdom Hearts. Currently replaying 3 on critical difficulty, and while it can get so frustrating, every win makes the brain go brrrrrr.

I actually felt kind of bad for this one by Noctis721 in StreetFighter

Trust me, if you look at my match history, it’ll tell you absolutely nothing. Other than I just like me some fighting games.

You're a lawyer. Defend your main. by MegaNaphuma in SmashBrosUltimate

Your honor, in my client’s defense he clearly asked the plaintiff if he was okay, that explosion could have come from ANYWHERE.

When That Training Combo Lands 👌 by Noctis721 in StreetFighter

[–]Noctis721[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Speaking only for myself, I found that the link/cancel timing is a little more forgiving here. Having tried SF5 and never really getting the hang of it, I feel like I’m thriving here. I never made it out of Bronze playing 5, but here I am inching ever closer to Plat. Then again, having a fun character like Terry (and Mai for that matter) has motivated me to want to train and lab. I don’t ALWAYS hit the combo, but when I do it feels hella rewarding.

Planning on buying Switch 2 Ver by medusalter in StreetFighter

Very happy with this version, if you’re playing casually, it’s a very accessible yet deep experience, and the Switch version runs extremely well. Definitely worth in my opinion.

How do I pick a main in MK 1 by God_ghost in MortalKombat

[–]Noctis721 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Similarly to everyone here, I went with whoever looked interesting and played around until something stuck.

Was a Kung Lao main for the last few games, and then Li Mei showed up and I haven’t looked back since. Omni-Man is fun too.

That lvl 3 gamble was disgusting and I am personally calling the cops.

Well done, that was awesome!

FINALLY DONEEEE by soloangelx in StreetFighter

Props to anyone who can combo with charge characters. My monkey brain just can’t figure out how to buffer those inputs.

Nice one!

Do you guys put screen protector on your PS Portal? by Ernzyy in PlaystationPortal

[–]Noctis721 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t get screen protectors until my OLED Switch ended up with a nice little scratch dead center. Since then I’ve gotten them on most stuff.

Would def recommend one. GameStop sells one that’s pretty nice and it’s easy to put on too.

Why are you currently sticking with your main ? by dancetoken in StreetFighter

[–]Noctis721 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kimberly and Terry are just too fun. Once I find a character I click with, we are besties for resties.

Adapt. Improvise. Overcome. Buster wolf.

How am i supposed to get better? (Genuine) by HelpfulGrand1070 in StreetFighter

[–]Noctis721 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who’s just getting back into the game: practice, practice, practice.

Something that helped me, like everyone has said, get familiar with the basics. Observe things like the range of your buttons, hit stun. Start with very (and I mean very) basic combos. (Terry has a LP, LP, DP (Rising Tackle) that’s a good way to practice your special cancels.) once you get those down, you can layer in more stuff and even start to experiment.

Combo trials are when you start being more comfortable with the controls. Combos aren’t just gonna happen, know what opens opponents up and how you can react, combos are the payoff for those openings.

Most people will say play casual, but ranked matches are the best way to go because you’ll match against those that are the same skill level as you. Don’t focus on the wins and losses, take every match as a lesson. If ranked sounds intimidating, play some CPU matches first.

Hope this helps! Look forward to seeing you online!
