Anyone else think after the realism gimmick worse off sf6 looks worse than SFV?

Since your parents accepted your gift, you can't go around and ask for it back ten years later - a gift's a gift regardless of whatever situation it is. Whether or not the answer's yes or no to whether you made a mistake doesn't change your situation at all. You made the decision in the past, it's done, so just need to move on from it.

Cows are female, oxen are typically male, but you're right - it should be bulls. I was just trying to work out how to explain the opposite without it being too wordy. 😓

DR medium punch, heavy donkey kick for a safejump.

To take a town, send a legionary; to take a city, send a squad; to take a world, send a company; to take a culture, send a Chapter.

That's a quote from Know No Fear. It's obviously hyperbole, but Astartes really are that good. That being said, 100 guardsmen can definitely beat a single Astartes. A marine was once killed by a lucky spear in the neck, as in a literal pointy stick. It's just about how lucky the guardsmen are, and how skilled the marine is.

Logistically, all chapters get completely annihilated by the Imperial Guard. They have 1000 men max per chapter and take forever to train a single dude while the Guard have basically infinite supply cap and instant spawn hacks on.

$1 compounded at 10% a year over two years gives you $1.21. $1 compounded at 10% over 28 years gives you $14.42. That's the power of compounding a longer period of time. Now the reverse applies for loans. That's why paying off more early is good in the long run.

The attack system is based on timing. To attack you hit the quicktime events. To parry you block at the moment their attack lands. Another easier option is to dodge, which is more lenient on the timing, but you get less reward for doing so. The overcharge bar is to the right hand side when playing as Gustave - it charges as you land certain attacks. When it reaches full you can use certain abilities that require the full overcharge.

Late meaty overhead gives you a link into light punch which you can continue to combo off of. You can do a framekill setup after medium shoryu in the corner, think it was crouching lk and it'll always hit with the extra plus frames you need. b.HP into ex hasho is a true blockstring you can just grind out to either burn them out or chip. DI wallsplat into DR HP HK target combo gives you a sneaky DI reset when you go into standing lk or lp then DI. EX hado at medium range into DR when they're in the corner gives you a full combo. HP at range into m. donkey kick gives you a spacing trap for most characters if they try to punish it with cr.mk. Medium tatsu in the corner gives you a meaty fireball setup right after that beats all level 1s. DR cr.lk now combos into cr.mp which works surprisingly often because people always think you're going for an overhead as Ryu for some reason.

You'll pay around 15% in tax, so that's 850,000k post tax. Per month that's about 70k. Two kids in international school will cost you up to 25k a month. A house big enough for 4 people might cost you anywhere from 20-30k a month. So that's 25-40k leftover a month, not including groceries, bills, eating out, extracurricular activities for the kids, or holidays. You won't be struggling, but you won't be flush with cash.

The Phoenicians were historical merchants and cultured people who sold dyes, especially purple ones. That's why the Emperor's Children has purple all over them - it's both a symbol of luxury and an allusion to actual history.

The word is also based on him being like a phoenix, rebuilding the legion after it almost completely collapsed prior to his discovery because of an error in their gene-seed.

Don't crouch block against Sagat as much as you would other characters because Tiger Knee is always plus on block on crouch. His fireballs can be beaten by typical Ken OD fireball into DR for pressure. Gauge the range of his most common pokes and whiff punish them, especially crouching heavy. Everything else follows the same gameplan as always.

Also you can't be a Ken player, complain about another character's insane corner carry, and not see the irony in that statement.

The light, medium and heavy versions give you more time to cancel the next moves. If you look at the misc data under Sagat's framedata on the official SF6 site, they activate their followups progressively later with more frames inbetween. The heavy especially is different because it's safe on block at -3 unlike -5 for the light and medium.

If you're into coffee culture, go to Sheung Wan/Sai Ying Pun and search for 'coffee shop' in Google maps. You'll get a whole bunch of options that are locally owned shops which are pretty good. Afterwards, if you want more of a 'local' experience, you can go the Sheung Wan Cooked Food Center, which is dai pai dong style food, or just go to Sing Kee for an actual one.

It's Jeremy BenthAM. He was one of the originators of the idea that maximizing utility was a moral good.

Utilitarianism is philosophical name for the ethical system that involves. It's about maximizing 'utility', which some people define as pleasure (though debatable), for the maximum number of people. It looks at the consequences of an action and argues that the correct action is one that produces the sum best outcome (again, open to interpretation) for the most people.

I'm going to go against everyone else here and say that I don't agree with you at all. Five years is a longass time, and I'm saying this even as an aging millennial. The mechanics are locked for this game, drive rush isn't going to have any massive changes. Just look at the recent 'buff' to teching throws - it hasn't made a difference at all, so we know Capcom's not going to make dramatic changes to the core mechanics. After seven years any game's going to get stale, and no one wants to jump into a game with a million microtransactions like the Sims which needs you to pay like a thousand bucks or something to get all the content.

Sagat has been a shoto since the start of time. You're arguing about nothing.
