I wonder if it'll be a Splatoon situation where they drop stuff every month or so for a good long while, all for free.

basically what they've said, new characters and stages dropping for free, but no timeline or schedule

Going by the Arms review thread seems it's another fighter launching low on content.

so i guess NRS is the model to follow if u want good scores

Going by the Arms review thread seems it's another fighter launching low on content.

Following the Nintendo new IP trend of abysmally low content set by Splatoon, I see.

Still amazes me the more favourable reception Nintendo gets for cutting below the bar than many of the third party studios get grilled for. Just reading the relative optimism in those reviews (especially with regard to finishing the game via DLC) says it all.

 

[ColonialHawk]

ARMS needs more lootboxes

 

[Sayad]

That Dissidia game looks like a glorified Touhou fighter!

 

[Professor Beef]

Dissidia NT for Evo 2018 pls.

I never stopped believing

NEVER

2018 gonna be lit, FOH 2017

 

[Quebaz]

Arms next month, Gundam VS late 2017, Dissidia early 2018, Virtual On Index somewhere 2018, what a time to be alive. I finally don't have to settle for subpar licensed anime games for my 3D Arena Fighter fix.

It's common knowledge by now that Nintendo gets preferential treatment from the press.

There's a new Virtual On coming?

Capcom reads GAF confirmed. SSFV. Make it happen.

Don't forget UNIBEST next month and Senko no Ronde 2 at some point too

Early 2017 last week and late 2017 next month. What a time to be alive.

Experimental games are usually given leniency as long as the foundation is strong.

ARMS hot takes:
- I can't beat the CPU no matter how hard I mash attack, I'm going to write a letter to Nintendo whining about how hard the game is

I'm now glad the reps chose not to reply to my e-mailed concerns. I think Arms could stand to have a slightly more vocal or descriptive tutorial, but my exasperation forced me to think entirely outside of my Arms-fighting mindset, which was focused on attacking.

- command inputs are arcane demon-summoning invocations

I love when fighting games free themselves from the confines of a "quarter-circle" system, and Arms distills virtual combat in a way that really feels like a fight, between how you punch and how you stare your opponent down. But I needed to sit with the controller version to sink my teeth into the game's high-tempo movement system, which, unlike the punching, doesn't really get a motion abstraction. Jumping and dashing are mapped to buttons no matter how you play.

- I know how to design games better than Nintendo

You have to all but spam the jump and quick-dash buttons to succeed in Arms. The reliance is so severe that I wonder how the game would feel if these moves were managed by a stamina meter (let alone whether characters might be balanced with different stamina meters). Real-life boxers would be pooped by the second round fighting this way.

 

[Dahbomb]

LOL @ stamina bar.

God damn journalists...

I really, really hate this stamina bar meme.

"Real-life boxers would be pooped by the second round fighting this way" – me, explaining why all fighting games are pathetic and bad.

So yeah, this happened to me this month:

Here's hoping I can stick around to get halfway decent at these games.

This is an incredibly apt comparison on the opposite side of the coin, since he criticized a Formula 1 game for having no giant loops, no launching off ramps and no driving through waterfalls.

glad to have you in the fold. the most important first lesson is not to listen to anyone in this thread

Tekken won't let me create a lobby with the name Anime sucks. Harada is a hater.

George Wood should design all fighting games from here on out.

For the HRAP4, I recommend buying a spring to increase its resistance. The default is just too slippery.

they should put that motion in the game somehow to piss him off

I don't see how that's possible. T7 has a nice PC port and a lack of full screen zoning characters.

Max got 20k first week of IJ2, NLBC had 15k.

Also T7 had an awful guy on the mic, I'm just tuning back now because Yipes is on.

 

[MechaX]

Well, good that T7 hit 10k in NLBC, but when in the fuck did Yipes ever start commentating on Tekken lol

Man, this dude is throwing some shade on Tag 2
