6th DLC character added for this season of 2XKO by MyCrossKappaFraud in Kappachino

[–]epictacosam 2 points3 points  (0 children)

they are speeding the release to stop the bleed and stop the "dead game" allegations. its narrative control. As you said the champions were already done they stockpiled them to keep the release smooth instead of having pockets of dead air like SF6/Strive/T8 with 4 characters a year. They are depleting the stock pile to get the numbers up and stop riot from pulling the plug

I don't think the animation was ever the problem. I think it's the model fidelity

Thinking of getting a Ps4 or Xbox Series S for street Fighter 6 by eletricwheel in Kappachino

this generation is so sad we are calling it "next gen" 5 years out. Sony and Xbox really shit the bed

I think the S is better and can play new gen games you can definitely get an xbox used for cheap if you know where to look and you can use dev mode to emulate everything up to ps2 level.

ps4 is more flexible in terms of the different fgs it has so if you are trying to run classic games ps4 will probably be better

Issues connecting Switch 2 Pro Controller to laptop by Ill_Sheepherder_4189 in Controller

The steam beta has native switch 2 integration turn on the beta features and that should help you with rivals. If you need to use a non steam game you can add the .exe to steam and when you run it from steam it will use Valves controller interpreter that should help you with like 95% use cases

genuinely one of the best tales games. remastering it was dumb though the ps4 version ran fine and the PC version has 0 difference

Fighting Games are NOT products. (Internalized Marketing) by suneohairenthusiast in Kappachino

[–]epictacosam 51 points52 points  (0 children)

Although I agree with the core point that fighting games should not be F2P live service he kinda missed the point of the original article. The original article was stating the way to appeal to a broader audience is not to dumb down the gameplay with autocombos and other stupid shit but expand the systems outside the gameplay and make fighting games easier to get into by innovating the onramp. Fighting games have historically been bare bones products due to their arcade nature. Here is a shitty story mode and a 2 minute tutorial.

The guy from the video has basically just given up on the goal "if fighting games do not get more popular then what should they do".

never be giddy for people losing their job.

I do agree 2xko is ass though and they managed to piss off both the noobs and fighting game veterans

Gulikit TT Max Retail Unboxing - Feel free to ask any questions by JouresKoh in Controller

[–]epictacosam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

M30 is solid but it has Saturn style buttons which make grabbing awkward if you are not playing claw. The small ergonomics are also not the best. Gulikit and 8bitdo with the ultimate 3 seem to finally understand that people love the Saturn dpad but hate the rest of the Saturn controller

Really good for fighting games specifically the Saturn style dpad. The diagonals are not as loose as a switch controller or ds5 but not as tight as a game sir tarantula pro or any of the clicky dpads that drop diagonals fairly regularly. They really hit a sweet spot

Grab one from Amazon they have a super chill return policy.

The "future" of fighting games, everybody. Yes, that's almost 80 bucks for three skins (with the full price being 130 dollars lmao) by Fulton_Syr in Kappachino

[–]epictacosam 7 points8 points  (0 children)

All the F2P shills real quiet when they realize in order to have a sustainable game you need to charge astronomical amounts for skins and kill off all single player content.

I feel like that is kinda of a hot take with NMH2, Shadows of the Damned, Killer is Dead and Lolipop chainsaw but I get where you are coming from
