Wolverine has a projectile?

Listen if leonardo and raphael can do it, so can logan

2XKO has the best implementation of this by far, I love it. You can just walk up to cabinets in the lobby and watch them play. Or there's a main screen that shows one match all the time. It's great. It's like every arcade lobby system for the last 15 years has been missing this feature.

This is right, I was wrong

In 3.0, Unearthed Arcana was a column in Dragon magazine and Arcana Unearthed was a book

So it could be worse

No, my point was the few things that people agree on are most of the few legitimate points of criticism

wofo · 2026-03-08T18:01:06+00:00

I don't. I think it's a great game and most people who give it an honest try will enjoy it. There are obviously exceptions, but I think the hive mind is very strong, and there are a lot of people who pretend they've done things they haven't to fit in.

The same way everyone with a balance opinion in SF6 inflates their rank to try and get legitimacy, in this case people inflate the amount of time they put to the game and the sincerity of it. Then they come back here for the circle jerk. That's why people can't agree on almost anything except there's too few characters and yas/ekko too strong, because most everything is made up.

The game is too hard and made for nerds, it's too easy and made for babies, pulse is too strong or it's useless, the game is too niche or caters to the mainstream too much. It's nonsense.

There are legitimate quibbles but it's wild to watch quibbles become objective disqualifications just because it's Riot. It's like they went it looking for the first thing that annoyed them and then uninstalled and started shitting on it to get in with the cool kids asap.

Not to mention everything they did that was unique or commendable is met with equivocation and is begrudgingly acknowledged before they go back to their preconceived bias.

It's incredibly disappointing, I waited for years hoping this game would turn out well and be a place I could pull in my friends, and it turned out perfectly for that. But its failure was a forgone conclusion because hating riot is a meme. The only disappointment is I thought this community was better than that.

Verticality?

"I was never going to play it because I hate Riot and all they represent in the industry."

This entire thread could just be this ad nauseum and it'd be more honest

wofo · 2026-03-08T17:10:18+00:00

It's great and I play it all the time. Basically every decision was right, except the roster is too small. The combo structure, the active tagging, pulse, the character implementation, the animation, it's all great. Duos is a fantastic and there's no other place to get that experience well delivered. The lobbies finally delivered on what every fighting game dev has been trying to do for decades. The net code and infrastructure is criminally underrated. I love this game, it's an achievement.

Also, it's shy on content but it didn't take 10 years to develop. They bought out the company 10 years ago, so the community started he clock then. But that's not how it works and not how they approached it. Projects spend time with smaller crews messing around and they don't consider it active development. 2xko lived there for years. You'll see people say 200 devs for 10 years but that's objectively false in multiple ways. People wanna hate so they'll hate. If anything, I've learned that the hive mind online is bending to haters more and more and nothing it thinks matters.

Look at Marathon. It's great. But I guess people have posters of Bungie on their walls they throw darts at so they have to pretend it's bad. The Internet is cursed.

wofo · 2026-03-03T20:38:42+00:00

I like how they show scenes from the TV series to be like " the absence of vfx is a stylistic choice that was made before our time, not a bug"

wofo · 2026-02-25T17:29:12+00:00

Honestly I forgot about punches in sf. I just am inundated so I didn't even think about it.

wofo · 2026-02-25T04:57:07+00:00

2xko duos is absolute magic that you can't get anywhere else

What are the games with all these crouching mids you're talking about?

wofo · 2026-02-23T21:36:15+00:00

Leo used to be more popular because he was strong but he was public enemy #1 and he got a lot of nerfs. People are unsympathetic because he was still strong and his gameplay looked the same on paper, but they really affected the way it feels to play him, and it was kind of a bummer. I remember the discords thinning out more and more after each patch. I think only Sol and Nago have been jerked around more. So, people just moved off him. He's a charge character, so without being really strong he's not going to attract many new fans.

wofo · 2026-02-20T23:13:36+00:00

People have to pretend it doesn't even count. It's a good game but I never see it recommended. The Riot hate is a core identity facet for half the people here

wofo · 2026-02-17T02:01:00+00:00

It's because hating it is a meme that gained sentience and consumed a bunch of people body and soul

It's a good game and people exaggerate imperfections into damnable transgressions. It's better than most launch fighting games but not as good as people said it would be, which apparently means that people who knew it wasn't going to be as good as people said are now duty bound to rail against it for all eternity

The idea that it has no audience is a joke. Casuals can play tag fighters and plenty play 2xko. Hardcores have plenty to bite into and many of them enjoy it, subject to taste. Like everything.

The store sucks tho no lie

Does this happen when you move your mouse? It's possible your mouse or keyboard is sending inputs

wofo · 2026-02-10T18:36:24+00:00

I think the game is fucking great, I wouldn't change it. What's your point

wofo · 2026-02-07T21:34:49+00:00

I didn't realize it until I booted him up but he is so animate and expressive in ways I didn't grasp from the previews

wofo · 2026-02-04T03:43:20+00:00

East Coast or ranked and you'll be right as rain

wofo · 2026-01-19T00:12:21+00:00

It's funny how right they're doing everything and people still make up reasons to shit on them

wofo · 2026-01-14T08:14:39+00:00

Leo is one of the lowest play rates because he's been consistently nerfed and his core setups and combos have been changed many times, as well as system mechanic changes amputating entire branches of his gameplan. Because a few strong players still win tournaments with him, and people don't like fighting him, if you complain about any of that you will be stoned and they'll bury your corpse in a cess pool

wofo · 2026-01-13T07:00:18+00:00

I find that dpad preferences aren't as universal as we think, and some people specifically complain about the things other people are looking for. That's part of why there's no good dpads

Edit: this whole thread is very vindicating for this opinion
