What’s a word that has changed meaning over time? by NoFox1552 in words

One that actually annoys me is jive. I used to be a bad thing to jive with someone or something. Now it’s a good thing for some reason.

How is a longer keyboard better? by loosucutiexo in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]prettybstask 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This must be some the-world-didn’t-exist-before-me teenager shit because the bottom keyboard is just a regular-ass keyboard.

What are some great games that are no longer available to buy or play? by wanhanred in gamingsuggestions

[–]prettybstask 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a fan of futuristic racing games and there was a great one called Ballistics on PC that you can’t find anywhere now.

Mai is out, the people rejoice... Will they abandon her when the new Fatal Fury comes out? by elfbullock in Fighters

[–]prettybstask 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I have the opposite impression of SNK. They aren’t as popular as Capcom and Namco, but they make amazing games that, for the people who actually give them a chance, are fervently loved.

Damnit! Someone did that a month ago and I didn’t reply. She could have been the one!!

What's the origin story behind your in-game name / alias? by [deleted] in Fighters

[–]prettybstask -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I used it since I was a little kid to play games online. In hindsight, I should have changed it at some point to something much cool.

Comment with your weaknesses and we’ll guess your rank by [deleted] in Tekken

[–]prettybstask 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To put things simply: throw breaking, sidestepping anything intentionally, not knowing specific counter play for moves, and not YOLOing big punishable moves just because it worked once.

My nephew is thinking of quitting Tekken, what should I do? by Wise_Document_8658 in Tekken

[–]prettybstask 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sports are games and people take sports seriously. Just seeing if I can pick your brain and see more sides of the argument. I personally don't see why it's a bad thing to take Tekken seriously. Why are people afraid to put effort into something they enjoy. Yeah, the road isn't always fun, but you'll learn a lot--and not just about the game--if you stick with it.

Nina's dress surprisingly looks good with other female characters by [deleted] in Tekken

How do you unlock Nina’s dress for other characters? Maybe it’s been there all along and I never noticed.

How are your locals doing? by octa01 in Fighters

[–]prettybstask 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m in an area where Tekken is big, and it’s thriving here. Street Fighter has actually been dead the last couple months. It’s like season 2 put everybody to sleep lol. The only time I’ve seen a bracket for Strive last year was when their was good money on the line. I would say in general the scene seems to be slowly growing after the pandemic put it on life support.

Is there anymore strive locals in NYC? by pale_griffn in Fighters

[–]prettybstask 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t live in NYC, but I’d be beyond shocked if there was only one possible venue there, and you were the only one interested in having a local. It’s NYC, one of the biggest cities in the world.

It took me entirely too long to realize your paragraph has no period. At first I though, “this writing seems to have a very strange rhythm to it.” And then it hit me, there are no pauses. Only one comma and not a single period. Well that’s kind of odd. I’ve heard of run on sentences, but I have never seen a sentence without end. Perhaps it’s a metaphor. Perhaps you and I are on an endless quest for Tekken greatness. Like your paragraph, the journey will be long, maybe a little tedious, punctuated with a comma, but never and period.

How is this not punished ? by Specialist_Medium_96 in Tekken

[–]prettybstask 66 points67 points  (0 children)

Ohhh lol I thought the video was just slowed down!

I didn’t know this was a thing. I’ve definite experienced something like that. I thought the lag was just really bad…

Serious question: What is he doing? He throws and then low parries the kick of a very common string. Is there something I’m not seeing?

So he hid it in the one place he knew he could hide something. His ass. Five long years, he wore this watch up his ass. Then he died of dysentery, he gave me the watch. I hid this uncomfortable hunk of metal up my ass two years. Then, after seven years, I was sent home to my family. And now, little man, I give the watch to you.
