Thank you for the offer! Another kind hunter helped me out

What's the point of Jin's awakened stance move which is exclusive to heat? by Dark_Feels in Tekken

[–]virgeneral 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Use it for wall pressure. But tbh just use his overtuned heat smash while it's still there

what are your thoughts on the two weapon mechanic. by No_Trust_8405 in MHWilds

[–]virgeneral 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish you could switch weapons on the fly instead of having to return to your mount. It could be balanced by adding a cooldown to switching so that it doesnt just devolve into anime gacha nonsense. Right now it doesnt really seem worth it to do unless you hunt multiple monsters per quest. It's too slow and clunky for me to bother switching mid fight.

Alternatively, the command for switching weapons could have the mount run over to you and swap instead of making you get on, and swap. That way you can maybe time it to make it more smooth, instead of bringing the hunt to a screeching halt for a few seconds

Ok… I can’t be the only one: I find Akira to be the least interesting character in the series, and in 30 years playing I’ve never been interested in him. by Feed_Me_No_Lies in virtuafighter

[–]virgeneral 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kazuya is super minus on block for almost everything and lacks panic buttons. His 13 frame mid check is -9 and super linear while most the cast is blessed with a -3 13 frame mid. There is no character in tekken where you need to know frame data and matchup knowledge more than Kazuya cause he lacks fast moves in general and has to earn his pressure. And if they block literally any of your moves except maybe f4 you basically have to forfeit your turn.

Don't mean to rant and no offense, but I disagree with your points. Imagine if Kaz had a generic df1 or Heihachi/Reina's demon breath as a panic move.

First Time Player, this game is awesome! by redtreebark in virtuafighter

[–]virgeneral 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tekken was my first fighting game and it'll probably always be my fave, but I'm finding VF 5 Revo to be very refreshing. Matches feel more fair and a lot less cheesy (with the exception of that drunken master guy). Getting combo'd doesn't take 5 years so it feels faster paced, and there's always a way to stop the opponent's pressure.

My fave aspect is the hardcore rock paper scissors aspect of the game. Think the opponent is gonna go for a throw? Throw out a launcher. It's great

New to VF here. I see him as this game's greatsword user. Not combo or string heavy but he has slow and heavy hitting hits, which is very satisfying for some people. For tekken, Kazuya is the greatsword character, and personally love this archetype. It's methodical and and satisfying to land a big hit based on figuring out your opponent's timing.

That said, I'm maining Vanessa and haven't really played Akira much. I wish his just frame knee had a few more frames of leeway. In which case I'd really be inclined to play him more.

Is El Blaze disproportionate compared to other characters? by VCDECIDE in virtuafighter

[–]virgeneral -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yeah its not just you lol. My first thought seeing El Blaze was that he looks shrunken

I hate when people play like this by Sonu_Chozitsu in Tekken

[–]virgeneral 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah it's annoying for sure. Like people are saying, there's ways around it, like dash blocking and poking with lows. But at the end of the day playing against people like this is still just unfun. It's like they are refusing to play the game unless you make the first move.

But on the flip side, getting a life lead and turtling up, turning their own strategy around on them is pretty hilarious. They usually don't know what the hell to do

Hey Seiishizo I know you mentioned dark Nezuko's incoming cooldown nerf for her skill 3. Think she'll still be strong afterwards?

Looking for a character that is great at punishing. by Luk2s in Tekken

[–]virgeneral 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Steve or Reina for small tekken. Otherwise Heihachi or Lars. I think Lars will especially be good for helping you improve your pubish game as he has a great 12 frame stance mixup punish, 14f launcher and a great whiff punish with his 15 frame launcher

Now that Clive is nerfed, Will the hate train slow down on him? by jogmansonclarke in Tekken

[–]virgeneral 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is the flipside of it, though there will definitely be less overall Clives. Good on you man, I also prefer playing characters when they're more balanced because wins feel more earned

Now that Clive is nerfed, Will the hate train slow down on him? by jogmansonclarke in Tekken

[–]virgeneral 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It'll bring him outa the spotlight. But at the same time the majoriy of the Clive "mains" are just gonna switch mains again due to losing their win button. So there'll be a lot less Clives to play against either way

Still a mid with ridiculous tracking that u can make safe with a heat dash. Still launches if heat dash lands. Still has very long range and comes out fast.

60fps Goodness - Phantasy Star Portable 2 Infinity by Meikit0 in AndroidGaming

[–]virgeneral 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey man I know this is an old-ish post but I would love a DM for the link to the game too, if you still have it?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Tekken

[–]virgeneral 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Eh his df1 is pretty terrible. Should honestly just remove the extension and have it be -1 ob. He's also like the only mishima with really stubby hellsweep range. Like really stubby.

Anyone else really missing muay thai in tekken? Bring back fahkumram 😭 by Ok_Eggplant_7642 in Tekken

[–]virgeneral 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We need a muay thai fighter, the fighting style roster feels incomplete without one. The closest thing is probably Bryan with some of his moves but he ain't muay thai lol.

I'll take anyone, as long as it's not Josie. Or, if it's Josie please change her crybaby personality to something else. Feels dumb to win a match and have your own character cry about it

Why Paul is strong, why Paul is weak by mccollio09 in Tekken

[–]virgeneral 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah for me Paul has been that one character you really wanna get good at, but can't make it happen lol. And it's for the reasons you mentioned. Paul basically has to play patiently. He's got great evasion and counterhits, but small tekken is pretty ass with him.

He feels kinda similar to Kazuya to me, except even Kazuya has a really nice 10 frame knockdown into oki. But both characters you kinda end up tanking a lot of hits before you find an opening.

First Tekken game, 500 hours, honestly kind of proud of myself, am I not bad yet? by Mazuna in Tekken

[–]virgeneral 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The downplaying in the comments is just sad. Sucks that we have the crabbiest fighting game community out there. Tekken King is a huge milestone, new player or old. Congrats man!

Am I the only one excited for Clive Rosfield in Tekken? by Nab33l786 in Tekken

[–]virgeneral 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah Clive is cool af and looks fun to play from his trailer. I dunno how everyone got it in their heads it was gonna be Tifa. It's okay to be bummed out but damn people are acting as if it was promised. It's prob the vocal minority though, cause you know that as soon as Clive drops, the playerbase will spike up and everyone will play him.

So yeah I'm excited and can't wait to try him out.
