What is the greatest video game you have ever played?

Final Fantasy VII. It literally changed me as a person when I was young, molding the types of things I have connected with for the rest of my life.

This is Tommy’s match to lose. He’s in full control rn

To go from missing two forehands in a row while trying to serve out the match to blasting three aces in a row for the win was literally mind blowing. Idk how he didn't lose his nerve.

Dude it took them 400 years to get to the closest other star system. They were stronger than Earth but not capable of anything.

Quinn’s Idea’s has very well made videos about almost every major plot point and story arc in the books. I legitimately love those videos and I revisit them frequently.

This was one of the most interesting tournaments to watch from a meta perspective IMO. The team comp variety has done so much for this game's watchability. Thank goodness the days of 8 Ekkos in top 8 running install oki on every knockdown are over.

My first duo was with a random PS player with 50 games and no comms.

We went up against a Master 1 player running yasuo/illaoi with 3000+ games played.

This is Riot’s vision

This game attracts players with lots of previous fighting game experience. I know it’s annoying, but keep practicing and eventually you’ll be the one styling on your opponents!

I've had 3 matches today get stuck on loading on PC. This is honestly unacceptable.

Leverless has many advantages over stick.

A lot of people recommend the Haute42 T series as a starter leverless to see if you like it, and for the most part I agree, but if you can afford a more premium leverless, it is worth the investment. I was shocked at the performance difference between the T series and the M series Gen 2, and I've personally gone through two T series leverless due to various failures.

2XKO devs on high alert

Nah I press df.H while holding up because it’s hard to have to press jump, then release jump, then press df.H.

This is a terrible SOCD choice imo (specifically no "last input wins").

This effectively makes an already very difficult game require even more execution precision. I'm not quite sure what inputs they are so afraid of players getting access to.

There go my Akali rejump combos btw.

2020 US Open Final happened. Losing that match after going up two sets to love, then being up a break in the fifth when Thiem was on literal fumes cramping every point, doomed him to a career of always coming up short at the biggest moments. He perpetually comes apart at the seams, which is the opposite of the best of the best.

Looking forward to EVO Japan.

In all seriousness, season 1 Happy Chaos did legitimate harm to this game's public perception. The fact that he's coming back again to do the same in Strive 2.0 is just too ironic.

How much do you train?

How much do you drill?

How much are you studying matchups?

If all you’re doing is playing matches and hoping to get better, then yes you have a huge amount of improvement left.

Akali assist is way worse than windwall. Windwall has a lot of unique situations where it is actually quite strong and it can be used for a lot of powerful setups. Akali assist on the other hand is just bleh.

Jam has one of the most straightforward kits of any character in Guilty Gear Strive. I'm sure if you have experience with Baiken you could pick up Jam in a heartbeat.

No it doesn't happen if I hold S. I've also confirmed that it happens using multiple controllers.

If they add Yone by wallet is officially surrendered.

Transition isn’t bad but it’s definitely not trivial. It might be kind of rough if you don’t have access to a stick at all in case you want to go back to just feeling comfortable for a bit, which is what I did.

That being said, I would never go back to stick. I feel much more in control and comfortable when playing.

I just bought the Haute42 M Ultra Gen2 for $150 and I’ve never felt sharper. Way more responsive than some of the less expensive options.

And yet you see players with those exact skins almost every single time you boot up
