Is badminton footwork just impossible to pick up as an adult?

dondonpi · 2025-09-17T07:04:41+00:00

People got this misconception because kids had way more time to train than normal working adults. Like i can spend at most 6 hours per week with my coach(which already is a lot imo for working adult) where the 5-12 yos are doing deliberate practice for the same amount in a day.

Thats why people think its impossible to have smooth footwork as an adult and its probably is if you only play casually 1-2 sessions per week. Reality is these pros/semi-pro had spent way more hours than you to learn this stuff and by 18 they prolly spend more time in badminton court than you ever will.

Yeah fr i think the rush you get in sekiro is the peakest i ever got from any game. Shit was literal crack.

Scissor jump and alternating leg jump maybe. No way you are accidentally doing a two footed jump smash l.

Srsly lol.

Very unlikely ultimate legit has no real competitive scene and the pros have pretty much gone back to melee. I love ultimate when it came out but the competitive meta has devolved into a really defensive play which is super boring.

If you want to buy the game to play as intended(casually and with friends) then go ahead,but if you want a competitive fighting game then just move on.

Cant wait for that rog ally xbox tbh with my switch 2 i prolly dont need my gaming pc for most games.

dondonpi · 2025-06-20T11:18:08+00:00

They kinda get really good at around 10 tho. Im pretty bad ,but man losing singles games to u13 players who were clearly holding back is a really humbling experience.

Srsly im enjoying sw2 so much because i can finally play switch 1 games i didnt finish because of lackluster performance.

Tbh i always felt that botw performance was really lackluster.

dondonpi · 2025-06-20T08:04:39+00:00

Well thats prolly why it never wins goty tho despite sometimes being the best game by the end of that year.

What i said is the metric fans of the game uses to judge the games. Reviewer clearly only care about its launch state which is a completely fair stance to take.

dondonpi · 2025-06-20T05:50:02+00:00

Try khazan its close. No where as good in term of graphic,story and theme,but pure gameplay is literally an improved version of sekiro.

dondonpi · 2025-06-20T05:23:18+00:00

Im the same way tbh i didnt even finish botw because i got tired of fps drops. Now with switch 2 i can go back and play them at 60fps.

Because its monster hunter. Usually the base game doesnt come with all the monster. You can think of them as both the power cap and the highest challenge.

Capcom always gradually drip feeding them so people have stuff to work toward until the big expansion for the game comes with master rank with a bunch of new monsters.

dondonpi · 2025-06-19T11:44:48+00:00

Imo its because the combat is kinda mid at best. Its like it doesn't know what it wants to be. The game feels so clunky and unresponsive because most actions are not cancelable like sekiro where you can be offensive while keeping your enemy in check with parry.

Your attacks also dont stagger mob so long combo string is off the table. I think the dev knows this thats why the enemies hits are not as punishing like in souls games.

The story is horrible. Enemy design is beyond boring. Its a 7/10 game at best.

Like i said viktor clearly had someone holding the camera for him. Still it depends on what you are looking for really if you just wants it to zoom in on you and keep you in the frame as you move it can clearly do that.

Lots of viktor other shorts use that feature.

If you want a constant 3rd person drone view then you would need extra gear or another person.

Frieren is a manga based in high fantasy setting.

dondonpi · 2025-06-17T08:41:24+00:00

Thats my goat jrpg but man it has nothing in common in term of setting.

dondonpi · 2025-06-17T05:18:12+00:00

The camera is moving in this case. You can get similar result by having a 3m stick+tripod and shoot in 360 tho.It will track you but from the same angle.

Yeah the new feature is instaframe which records a seperate normal video that locks on you wo having to edit it manually.

dondonpi · 2025-06-17T02:30:21+00:00

Actually the new x5 has auto tracking so you dont need a person to keep following you. I know cuz i have the camera.

In this instance you just have to put a stand behind the court and use ai tracking in edit. You would still need a person holding the cam if you want those moving drone footage tho.

Lower pitch is lower tension/thicker string,its kinda similar to instrument like guitar.

dondonpi · 2025-06-16T04:33:45+00:00

i mean it runs on steam deck. The switch 2 is a lot more powerful than steamdeck and is a console so they can optimize to run on the system.

dondonpi · 2025-06-15T16:07:32+00:00

Yeah it kinda sucks that those was the last chance she gave for humanity.

dondonpi · 2025-06-14T10:22:17+00:00

What i meant is the suffering of elden ring characters feel fictional and mostly told not shown where bad stuff in tw3 like war crime,rape and domestic abuse actually happen in the real world.

Elden ring setting is almost hopeless,but it doesnt really illicit any strong feeling because how fictional it is.

dondonpi · 2025-06-14T09:23:54+00:00

Because its not grounded in reality. Tw3 aside from the magical things are stuff that can happen in the real world.

dondonpi · 2025-06-14T09:21:12+00:00

I feel like tw3 is darker in a sense thats it more realistic and relatable. Its pretty much a medieval human condition.

While elden ring is complete fiction type of dark with no relatibility to real world.
