The UNIEL beginner's workshop made by jp players is a good resource albeit low video/audio quality.

Thanks for this, looks like exactly what I need.

Why is the mangaka on hiatus again? An HxH fighter would be pretty hype if it ever came to fruition. Hell, an all out manga fighter with one piece, HxH, Berserk, etc. would be dope.

Why does everyone on gaf call them mangaka? Just call them artist or writer breh.

We're too anime for that shit

 

[BakedYams]

Because Dragon Quest.
In reality, he has children, had some injuries. His wife's busier right now cause of all the Sailor Moon stuff.
Hunter X Hunter and One Piece would never be in a crossover with Berserk.

God damn it Togashi, stop making money on DQ so you can make money with HxH!

Spoiler

I thought it was the DBZ artist that was usually employed for DQ or was that only in the beginning of the series?

Why must great works be delayed until the end of time ;_;

That's what happens when you insist on having no assistants.

TOGASHI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Always stuck with me, never really bothered to say otherwise lol.

 

[Professor Beef]

mangaka sounds too much like man caca

 

[Tripon]

Mangaka is a job that can entail both being a writer or artist. Also, it tells English speaking people that the is specifically to work on manga, not comics or drawings.

 

[mbpm1]

Wait a second, Silent Hills is cancelled.

This is...goddamnit.

 

[sf2fanatic]

You will see Shotos and you will like it.

Hoping for a Dan then

 

[zeroroute]

Well Konami will have a good 2015 for Digital Entertainment mostly because MGSV is going to d gangbusters. After that they are in a pickle for sure.

Guess they can make a fighter... you know those always make a ton of money.

Bloody Roar 5 pls.

Nope, you'll get Elenas instead.

He doesn't work on them he plays them.
If you read Hunter X Hunter how do you not know this.

Yes, SF4 lol. Even against a weaker player, it's a lot harder to earn that clean win compared to other games.

 

[BakedYams]

I've never played a DQ game in my life. So you mean to tell him he's swimming in so much money he can just play games and delay his manga as much as he wants? God damn it.

not a bad thing

If you don't have salty wins you're not playing fighting games lol

I just find it weird Kojima is actually leaving after MGSV, it just doesn't make sense for Konami to let their bread winner leave like that. Either that or Konami is finally gonna go bankrupt in a couple years from no good games lol

Konami isn't struggling financially, they just refuse to make games that wouldn't have huge return. They actually still have bigger market cap than Capcom, Square-Enix or even Ubi-Soft! Though they're not mainly a games company now, gameing is still where most of their money comes from. Removing Kojima is probably someone's bright idea that the series name is big enough to succeed without him, especially with Kojima not wanting to work on more MGS games and Konami not willing to take any kind of risk what so ever.

hopefully kojima will stick with his team and open up their own studio or get picked up by someone who recognizes their talent.

She's fine where she's at tbh

where would she even get buffed though, really

make slide break armor? make unsafe overheads safe? make her death cry last for all of the following round, deafening the opponent?

The first rumors about him leaving after MGSV did mention both him and key members of Kojima Production. That doesn't usually happen unless they have plans for a new studio.

Every other online fight in MvC3 for me. It isn't even a casual thing. I swear we as a community have seen salty winners on more occasions than we can count and remember even at tournaments. It is strictly a MvC3 thing. Each fighter has it's quirks and that is definitely MvC3's quirk.

Berserk isn't drawn out like a Shounen, it's paced just right and the story is always moving.

The problem is the chapter release schedule. Obviously if you release one chapter a year you aren't going anywhere anytime soon.

If Berserk had the release schedule of Naruto then it would've ended 5+ years ago.

Yep

I think everyone would settle for bi-monthly releases at this rate. Some semblance of regularity would be fantastic.

 

[smurfx]

online marvel does that to you because of all the stupid shit you can get away with because of lag. you can sometimes see a shitty mix up coming from a mile away and still get hit by it thanks to lag.

It also leads to legendary moments too.

["God's Beard!"]

I just finished watching The Abyss and I decided that we need more underwater stages in fighting games.

We're too anime for that shit

Berserk isn't anime. It's a perfectly fine Western comic book with Western sensibilities. The art style is Hieronymus Bosch meets Frank Frazetta, so Minibossbattle could read it without hating himself.

 

[CountBlack]

I mean.. I could come up with a list of issues she has that i'd like fixed/buffed if you want.


Make her st.HP 2-3 frames faster or make cr.HP cancellable.
Fix the st.HP hitbox to his Honda/Yun/Yang/Elena after FADC'd lynx tail
Make st.HK +4 on hit (no select plink pls)
Buff j.HP -> 100 Damage from 90
Buff damage on her throws and her throw range

Most of these are #CokeDreams but I wouldn't mind it tbh


What I don't get is that characters with trash throw ranges also have trash throw damage and characters with good throw ranges have good throw damage.

who came up with this breh

 

[The Lone Dragon]

Bet none of y'all kids know this game :V

Kensei Sacred Fist.

If Konami packs it up, my dream of a true sequel will never come true...

 

[call_kotaku]

Berserk is a generic 1920s - 1950s American fantasy book that's made better by anime art and made worse by anime bullshit.

It did encourage me to pick up reading old-style fantasy books (Conan, Kane, Elric, etc) because they have actual pacing and character development and I don't have to wait a decade to find out what awful things happen to the characters.

Berserk is basically the Skullgirls of sword and sorcery literature.

I have no idea what Beserk is but I just wanted to say I appreciated this post.

 

[Dahbomb]

To suggest that Berserk doesn't have pacing (wut) and/or character development (when there's a whole major arc plus some minor ones dedicated to this very purpose)...

And especially when you listed the Conan books as an example of "pacing"...


Not going to touch this even with a 10 foot pole especially as this is FGW and we are here to talk about fighting games. And I wouldn't really say Berserk is an American fantasy or a sword/sorcery story. It's its own thing despite borrowing from various mediums.


I will take bets that more than 5 American players will qualify for Capcom Cup. Come at me doubters!

600 matches with Mewtwo over the last two weeks. Such a goddamn painful grind to get good with him.

Was out last week.

yeah. It came out last week.

Damn. How far out is the western release of Extend?

Any tips on how to play him good? I miss some of my melee stuff and can't get a good grip on his changes yet.

The end of June? Someone correct me if I'm wrong

Markman's stolen stuff is already on craigslist. And he already knows about it. Go get'em Mark!

I want to say something in response, but those Asuka gifs are just too apt.

It's sad that I agree with this.

I realized this pace would only give us about 5 volumes a decade. The dream really is dead without monthly releases. Let us pray for new life extension technologies instead.

 

[NEO0MJ]

What sort of idiot thief was this? I was kinda hoping it was for something more interesting than just duping it on craigslist, and that there was some secret deal going on and that Markman would lead a chase with the Madcatz and other crazy stuff.

Treat every matchup differently. He isn't like most characters, where he has a set game plan that he wants to implement. He has a diverse toolset, but each opponent requires different tools.

I am about to post this in the Smash OT. Best Mewtwo I have seen so far. I will upload some of my own play this week, just because I feel like folks desperately need it:
