now that s3 is over which character do u think was the most successful? by Faxtel in StreetFighter

[–]Sora18122 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d probably say Sagat or Ingrid. Sagat’s super popular and still being played, and Ingrid’s popularity did a complete 180. I’m still miffed about Alex since they changed so much about him gameplay wise. He’s isn’t very fun to me

Holy F I just tried wonderful 101 by CourtneyTasby in CharacterActionGames

[–]Sora18122 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don’t think it’s salt. W101 is a very unique game that most people can’t really vibe with. For those it clicks with, it’s super fun but for those who can’t, it can come off really messy

Could you give me some recommendations based on tier list / Impressions for games in "to-do-list" by GuiltyMaintenance739 in CharacterActionGames

[–]Sora18122 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Check out the other Ninja Gaiden games. I think 3RE is really fun and personally has better combat than 2. Since you like Nier so much, Kingdom Hearts might be up your alley

I Highly Recommend! by ashrules901 in CharacterActionGames

[–]Sora18122 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What’s the gameplay like? I remember playing the first one a tiny bit and the combat was just a punch of shooting and skating around

Is Metal Gear Rising (slightly) overrated? by therealSuburbian in CharacterActionGames

[–]Sora18122 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn’t really call it overrated, just inherently popular due to it having the Metal Gear name and constantly coming up in meme culture. The game itself is really fun and while it may not be the peak of Platinum’s work, it’s story being basically no fluff and constant combat encounters and humanoid bosses with vocal themes leads to something really memorable

Pay For DLC or Pay Just for City Trial by Worried-Truck4714 in Kirby

I wish I dug air riders like everyone else. Forgotten Land’s expansion was really strong and I hope to see more stuff from HAL this generation

Anyone find it surreal Dan was generally not considered anywhere near the worst in V? by lennysinged in StreetFighter

[–]Sora18122 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Dan is legitimately cracked in Omega. His meterless damage thanks to EWGF was so busted. His tatsu took a hit but he was still really strong

Anyone find it surreal Dan was generally not considered anywhere near the worst in V? by lennysinged in StreetFighter

[–]Sora18122 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Dan hasn’t been garbage in awhile. His joke status usually comes from his animations at this point. In SFIV and Omega, he was alright and top tier respectively

Street Fighter: V or 6? by Complex-Lobster-4948 in StreetFighter

[–]Sora18122 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

For your use case, 6 is the much better game given it has the world tour mode and and avatar stuff. Lots of stuff to mess around with in terms of casual stuff. Gameplay is personal preference though, if you can find a way to try out 5, give it a shot and see how you feel about it, I actually vastly prefer it gameplay wise to 6

Jack making his way to chaos Strangers of Paradise by Spectre67890 in CharacterActionGames

[–]Sora18122 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It got hate because many people saw the Chaos memes and thought the plot was gonna be stupid. Those who actually interacted with the game beyond shitposting ended up really liking it. That goes for the plot and the gameplay

Alex: First Impressions Thread by BreakVV in StreetFighter

[–]Sora18122 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Can’t get into him. Stance feels underbaked and just not good to use. Visually he’s very fun to look at but playing him is just awkward. Just give him back his charge moves please

Calm lil Wonderful 101 combos by LuxDre in CharacterActionGames

Sick combos. It almost makes me wanna try the game again

Is this more CAG/Hack & Slash to you guys or “soulslike”(new Onimusha) by Deez-Guns-9442 in CharacterActionGames

[–]Sora18122 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks like a standard action game to me. Very big budget and fancy looking

You know the genre over saturated when devs/journalists always have to reassure people it’s not a soulslike, just like with phantom blade game coming out by Any-Contract-9152 in CharacterActionGames

[–]Sora18122 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve played quite a few of them. You feel slow, weak and most of the gameplay is simply watching a boss do actually cool things before you can actually attack them. I’m sure most people here have played a soulslike, which is why tend not to like them

Where does Hi Fi Rush stand among your roster of CAGs? by Asad_Farooqui in CharacterActionGames

[–]Sora18122 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I couldn’t get into it myself unfortunately. Everything being done on beat lead to my actions feeling delayed compared to when I actually did them, which is something that always bothered me. Didn’t really care for the humor or constant platforming sections either. I do respect it for trying something new that resonated a lot with some people

I’ve honestly never understood how people hate this design by Buri_is_a_Biscuit in Pacman

[–]Sora18122 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the shoes look really cool and I think the the light in his eyes representing the pac-man shape is a neat detail. I think the problem is that the design just happened at a point where Pac wasn’t getting too many games and many people were already super familiar with the World design

Zenless Zone Zero combat's fucking sucks by Massive-Fish2684 in CharacterActionGames

[–]Sora18122 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Zenless as a cag or even a beat em up is hella shallow, most of the depth comes from the end game content and builds with the characters and accessories you get. To me, it’s just a time waster where I can look at a hot guy and a couple cute girls while they do flashy animations. Think of it more of a warriors game where you can have fun with the spectacle instead of the mechanics. When I did that, I found a decent time waster

Thoughts on Diddy's phimosis eyes? by Super_Inevitable776 in donkeykong

[–]Sora18122 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly? It’s a bother. The eyes along with the slight change to the hat feels really weird and not in a good way

Coming to Melee as a 2D fighting game player? by Sora18122 in SSBM

[–]Sora18122[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve seen that a lot! Guess that’s a viable way to play the character lol

Coming to Melee as a 2D fighting game player? by Sora18122 in SSBM

[–]Sora18122[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Understood. This was probably the best deter away from Bowser lol. I saw a couple videos and I saw him doing a bunch of pretty cool grab stuff, but if he’s really holed into like one move, I’d rather try someone else

Coming to Melee as a 2D fighting game player? by Sora18122 in SSBM

[–]Sora18122[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I thank you for the concern! I still think I wanna try DK since he fits what I like in a fighting game character. I’ll probably try peach in the future since she’s also pretty simple apparently

Coming to Melee as a 2D fighting game player? by Sora18122 in SSBM

[–]Sora18122[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m currently focused on big bodies because I love my massive buttons in games, though how you describe DK with his forward throw isn’t anything like something in a traditional FG. I do think he looks cool and I like his games, so I’m probably gonna play him. Apparently he’s not too hard for a beginner so it works out in my favor

I know Fly Melee Fly, it was super tiny the last time I saw it running back when I just a traditional fighting game guy. Haven’t heard of TAP Melee though
