lolmore like "lol dead game getting updates, who cares"
I think we'd just need a game that gets regular updates and fixes. SG was most certainly not balanced from day 1 with custom assists. Just ask anyone who experienced the early hornet bomber days.
I was talking about AG, but talking about both wouldn't be bad. Sometimes system-wide mechanic fixes really work just as well as character specific fixes and in MvC2's case something like PBGC not being universal would have literally made many characters useless against Sent/Spiral teams. SG's unblockable protection would have certainly benefited MvC3 too. That game was stuck in vanilla SG days. The only difference is that it has a bunch of Marvel characters to keep things enticing. I've experienced the high low game there and it is nuts. Luckily they took a scalpel to a bunch of the rushdown characters and gave us some real defensive options in UMvC3.
Yeah, these are particularly game-specific fixes that need to happen. We ALL know about the huge GAF made suggestions list and how much could change the game for the better, though lol. The game is far from perfect and it could use a lot of work.
Yeah, his opinions on sweep followups and the sheer amount of unscaled damage done by level 3 supers definitely caught me eye. He has talked about IAD buffers, 360 protection and PBGC for months, so it was just treading familiar and useful ground.
Aww shiiiieeet patch incoming!
Win a major with point Hawkeye.
It's fun. Squigly was the one character I really wanted to play most, and I wanted one on point. Really works well with those two characters. Plus I love Q and Potemkin as characters, so this worked out extremely well.
MKX has reeled itself back in compared to past costumes for a lot of its female cast.
Granted everyone is rocking triple D knockers, but at least they aren't in a string bikini in MKX like DoA gives you costume options for. Plus, I think there was a big debate a long ago in off topic GAF about underboob vs sideboob vs clevage as which is more "sexual" and the trend was that under boob was far more sexual than a woman with a big cleavage.
Either way... I'm not letting a 7 year old watch MKX either. For me though it helps me a lot that the male character's in the cast are cool looking imo. The females in MKX also wreck shit fairly hard, and so I can overlook the big hooters thing. In DoA all I really see is just Japan horniness at its finest. Makoto in BB just isn't my cup of tea.
She is Q's waifu forever though.
Maybe it has nothing to do with the type of the game it is, but the kind of development it's got in it's future... which is zero. I don't think it is a coincidence that some of the biggest and long lasting games are still big in tournaments thanks to yearly disc based upgrades, DLC expansions, DLC character additions and the balance fixes associated with all the aforementioned new content.
I have to watch that bit again, but Painwheel is so scary with unfly now. Thank God Karsticles isn't into it in a serious way. I've got enough wheels of pain to deal with already.
I have DMC4SE pre-ordered because of the Lady costume... My first ever pre-order.
True, but I truly have no desire to learn melee at a competitive level. I'm an "above average" player for online only, and am fine with that. No game has spoken to me enough that I want to go tournament level of grind. At this point in my life I don't think I could.
Career that has me travelling 2-3 weeks out of month away from home generally 6-8 hours away. I have a kid I'm raising, and I'm getting married too this fall. The moments I find to myself are few, and generally are in a hotel room away from home watching games moreso than playing them sadly.
Odds are if I ever go past that point it would be with Street Fighter 5 and later in its life time after my career is better established and the home life is settled a bit more, but at that point a new kid will probably be in the works/on the way, and I swore to my fiance that until a baby grows up to be at least 3 years of age I would pack up all gaming altogether so as to not have any distractions in its upbringing. I could see myself being a shit head and prioritizing "me" time over bonding time with a new born. That's just me and awareness of myself to ensure I don't fuck it up.
Forever a stream monster!
A finished game looks better than one in development. Could've fooled me.
