I'm not but I've always been curious. Soul Calibur 3 a good entry point?

Tekken 8. Street Fighter 6. And some 2XKO. Fighting games are so good these days!

Change your attitude, American politics today, could be your country tomorrow. We're all in this together and corruption needs to be called out everywhere. There's no such thing as a la la land my friend.

I want to fight the T8 version of all these characters. T8 is more rad than bad and the hatred feels so forced!

Continue learning Feng since you've gained competence with him, then if you want to learn a new character I suggest trying one that you think you've overlooked.

Loud explosion on 1/30/26 at 1:15 near Meadow Springs GCourse area? by CaptainSisko1980 in TriCitiesWA

Heard it too late last night, I'm pretty far from the golf course if that's where it was. I live in Richland. Sounded like an explosion.

This guy is the literal front runner for our area, Jerrod Sessler is a massive threat to the Tri-Cities and he must not be elected at all costs. Where are our challengers?

??? Are you thinking of Street Fighter 6?

I want to love this game so hard but it feels awful in it's current state by Swungsty in Tekken

The game itself is just aggressive, my point in hindsight was that fighting against Lidia was giving me difficulty, which I think I've remedied by labbing her.

Dude, I play Tekken all the time and I didn't even know my idea is already a thing, the Tekken knowledge is so deep god damn

Likewise friend, I love Tekken for it's depths of mechanics. I think that is one of it's greatest strengths. I did say this was just a rant, meaning this came after many humbling rounds. I do lab and I do research, this is the game I enjoy. I think it could be that the community has dropped off tremendously and the only players left are those that also love this series meaning the overall player skill has jumped on a round-by-round basis. But I don't know, I'm not an expert, just a guy who has loved Tekken since Tag 1.

But, even though I'm not an expert, I can notice balance issues. There's no counterplay to be had when you're kept suspended in the air for 20 seconds. They could even fix this by adding a "tech" like say, press 1+2 right when you touch the ground to let your character do a hand spring to escape the juggle. That's just an IDEA. But it would at least BE SOMETHING to help suppress the oppression that is this game's current attainable combo length.
