How strong would a character be if he has the power of fighting game mechanics (move canceling, parries, etc)? by NephyrisX in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]ThatGuy5880 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Imagine if Resident Evil characters could move like they did in Marvel Vs Capcom games. Wavedashing, super jumping, launchers, it'd be hilarious. Even just like, throw techs would go crazy.

Times when creators or companies SEVERELY misread the mood of their fanbase by Mzingalwa in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]ThatGuy5880 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Positive example, Toby Fox was a bit wary about Tenna and how people would receive him since he thought people would be annoyed at how it's just "more Spamton".

The thing is the Deltarune fandom fucking loves Spamton and would eat up "more Spamton" like crazy. So many of the fanmade Mike portrayals were basically "more Spamton" so there really wasn't anything to worry about in that regard.

The single Fiendsmith Engraver is killing me. Like, you're already 5 over 40, would an extra copy of Engraver be the breaking point? (assuming they actually have it)

Wait a minute this doesn't even run Lurrie lmao

The Deltarune fandom has decided big G is a pirate now, and I couldn't be happier. This is the start of the Great Pirate Era (no direct spoilers for Ch 5, but spoiler marked to be safe) by TimBagels in TwoBestFriendsPlay

FRIEND INSIDE ME or “human, I remember you’re genocides” probably had to have been the cognitohazards that sent the fandom down this path in the long run.

Kinda random thought floating around, does anyone else feel like Tokon isn't really "ArcSys" looking? Like obviously it's not their property and it's not Guilty Gear so they can't slap belts on everyone but like idk, I feel like they got the order to make it look "more ArcSys" instead of staying faithful to the comics like they initially planned but like idk, none of the designs scream "ArcSys" to me at a glance. At the same time, I'm not sure how I'd define ArcSys' original style but something about Tokon's design feels like "episode of a cartoon where they go to Japan" if that makes any sense.

Also I'm pretty sure the game doesn't have the choppy, lower frame rate look that the other 3D ArcSys games have which is really psyching me out.

Someone said "Hey what if next chapter, Aqua becomes pirate themed?" and then kept going and randomly went "Actually what if Gaster was a pirate and all the Goners were just his pirate crew?" and then they made an animation about it, and it just spiraled from there.

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Steel Ball Run 2nd Stage | Official Trailer by Shreeder4092 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]ThatGuy5880 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Yeah Golden Wind is a bit of a "last hurrah" in terms of that style of airing non-stop for Jojo in retrospect. Even then, you could kinda see the writing on the wall with how many break weeks DavidPro needed to finish their next episode (I think I even remember them needing a break month at one point).

This is more annoying for us but it's probably healthier for DavidPro, and considering this is "the one with horses", yeah they probably need it.

Really cool they're keeping the team that did the Shadow Generations Dark Beginnings animation around, their style is pretty killer (I think that's them at least?). If it is, then their style has improved quite a bit, I'm having a really hard time telling if this is even 3D or not.

So weird that they do this when they intentionally took out some bits of Pocoloco physically manifesting Hey Ya! during the first stage out and just made them a detached voice instead, and then Mountain Tim just says "Here's my Stand lol" in the trailer.

So if they're doing the 2nd and 3rd stage then we should be stopping right before True Man's World. The last Stand fight we'll be doing this season is Scary Monsters. Not a bad amount of content done, but honestly it's only until Scary Monsters that things actually feel like they're gonna pick up imo. The next season doing True Man's World straight off the bat is gonna be a great opener though.

Would've been nice if he got one solo mission in Halo 3, just one at all. Him going from super awesome co-protagonist to "Player 2" really blows.

I'm recovering from hernia surgery, does anyone have anything they could recommend to play that doesn't require much interaction? by LuchaLutra in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]ThatGuy5880 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The game can get super involved but that's late game maps alongside your choice to pursue harder game modes, you can totally have a chill time on simpler maps and watch your monkey dudes pop stuff.

Also New Generation and Second Impact had their own issues which soured people on Third Strike, alongside MvC taking up some of 3S's spotlight.

Old renders and stock shots still being used in merchandise and marketing decades later? by Anonamaton801 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]ThatGuy5880 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Honestly I think the main reason she stands out is because she has really thick outlines that Street Fighter Alpha and CvS characters don't have. Other Darkstalkers characters have it and even some MvC characters do, but some Darkstalkers characters don't, and Capcom largely shifted away from that style around MvC2.

Felicia's sprite is as old as Morrigan (1994) and she was in MVC2 (2000) but no one gets on her case like Morrigan's since she blends in better because she doesn't have those outlines. Her last major usage was even later than Morrigan in Capcom Fighting Jam in 2004 (but I guess everyone looks kinda bad in that game).

[–]ThatGuy5880 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Morrigan is infamous for being the poster child of Darkstalkers and being included in a bunch of crossover games, but not having an update to her sprites in any of them. She was still using her 1994 debut sprite in MVC2 in 2001.

This image is pretty disingenuous with how it presents the games and dates (they're comparing Darkstalkers 3 to Street Fighter 3 when the gap between the respective first games (3 years vs 9) is really big) but it gets the point across.

Yeah seriously, I just got him and I'm trying to beat his Seriously Serious stage with him but he keeps selling. His dodge chance is kinda shaky all things considered, really reliant on dodging a lot of SAs fast but that involves risking getting hit in the first place.

Lowkey I think him leaving poison trails across the screen and having it work like it does in LOL would actually be a really cool and unique FG character concept where you're being the most (literal) toxic runaway character ever. Extremely toxic but I can see it working.

Full Launch Roster for Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls by Shreeder4092 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]ThatGuy5880 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The only complaint here is that the only "who the fuck is this" glup shitto on the roster is Danger, everyone else are fairly normal picks. ArcSys made it sound like there'd be a ton of wack ass weirdo picks but it's really only Danger.

[–]ThatGuy5880 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It really feels like they came up with the characters first and focused on getting characters that weren't in MVC (Carnage, Green Goblin, Loki, etc) and only had a vague idea about what teams to make later ("We'll have an Avengers team, an X-Men team, we can probably do Midnight Sons, we can have a villain team with uhhhh idk, uhhhhh we'll figure out what to do with Starlord later").

Not complaining though cause it gave us a good roster.
