In the early days of steam there was this
simple free version of chess in the chat room.
Whats that? is it free?

I think it's just hard to compare skill sets between games with entirely different rules.
Even getting better means you gradually get better and better. It's more applicable to when arcades were a bigger thing I think.
Also depends on your desire to replay games and master them just for the enjoyment of mastery. I do no-sub-weapon runs of MMX just to make the game more interesting since I've replayed it so much.
That's just cool content then.
I have no idea where that line is from. I just remember it from one of those images made up of choice quotes.
It's almost as if men and women are both human

I need this... I barely have any room on my desk to play real tabletop games in my apartment.
See I was led to believe that this was the Shin Wombo Combo.
Anyone who has watched the Smash Brothers should watch the Smash Pros. Shit starts off as a simple parody and then goes nuts.

Well, I just started watching the Lincoln Lawyer. I hope it's good.
It's just like my japanese animes. Next the train will jolt and she'll fall down on him or vice versa. Also, yeah, women/girls are just like guys.

There's no chess or tabletop sim on Steam with cross play between PC and Mac?
Hang out to do what?
Say no

The testament of a talented gamer is how good their feel of the game is, and how well they can put these skills in a real life situation.
Like for one, let's take Desk's videos. Insanely knowledgeable fighting game playing, but not the best in a real situation. You have to put both together.
Get outta town.

That sounds like something out of a SOL Romance anime.
Only way to meet girls here is to go drink at a bar or talk to them in a random store.
Probs watch anime or drive around or something.
I'll be getting back my copies of Wolfs Rain and Kare Kano, so at least something good is bound to happen.
Something something or something?

Make up an excuse and do something else with other friends.
The two of you alone won't be good for you.

Oh I didn't know about this. It's $20 I think? But it lets you play a bunch of table top games online and you can mod in other games like DND and stuff
It looks super fun if you have a few people to play with
Tell her you're busy or something. Don't spend time with her, you know it's bad for you.
Remember the basics of CQC.
Since you're talking skill ceilings, i'd say melee. The games been growing for 13 years, and we're still getting visibly better. There's still so much hidden tech there that we haven't stopped finding(which takes a lot of skill and effort to keep up with and utilize), and combined with combos that change based on positioning, character weight, and percentage to make it so nothing's guaranteed unless you can think on your feet. Add in doubles with friendly fire on, and more competitively viable playstyles than literally any other game, and I'd say there's still a huge future there that will necessitate continued improvement until we hit 20XX
It's fine! I'm seeing two equally hype moments.
The problem is that there was only ever one wombo combo
some guys from an entirely separate community just said hey that's cool let's steal that
and then run it the fuck into the ground
Same with salty johns
and a bunch of other terms
at this point d1's DESTRUCTION is most of what we have left
it's childish, but we're basically the black culture of the world of gamers. Whatever we have will be stolen sooner or later
No, that's just some random shit with the audio pasted over it.
Pretty funny tho.
Yeah too many people just assume wombo combo was originally a LOL term because it shows up there all the fucking time
That is some information I won't be using. No siree.
Then that's a cool reward. That's the kind of stuff I could see myself working towards. If I got another difficulty in a character action game for Platinuming the previous one then I'd be more inclined to. Usually I'd just settle with simply completing the difficulty though.
Yeah, I just prefer game goals rather than personal goals. I don't know if I've ever had a game I revisit like a MMX or anything. I've thought about trying to play Miku recently with only the dpad so I can train myself to use it in tandem with the face buttons as to make parts of the game easier. That's all I can think of though for that kind of stuff. I should probably disregard in game goals and achievements one of these days and try to just gitgud at something to see how I feel. I'd probably do that with a fighting game or something rather than an arcade game though.
Sounds like an interesting. I'll have to read it sometime.

I see.
So follow up: can there be games with physical or mental edges that are beneficial in more areas than competitive gaming?
I remember watching a documentary on Monopoly where the majority of competitive monopoly players are people that use negotiation skills in their career.

Of course. Just the dedication to improve and think on the fly is important and a skill you could easily use. Most extreme examples of skills and proficiencies overlap.
Yeah, perfecting a thing you love is pretty neat. Same reason people do speedruns and stuff.
God I should do that with Miku.
And yeah. If there's something with depth you find enjoyable, fighting games are a great choice since there's always somebody better than you to stack up against.
The internet does this with everything dude.
Actually don't mind people using wombo combo as long as they know the origin. Its purpose serves it well in other games as its generally, a combo that's hard too pull off. Also to be fair it used to be only johns but the FGU added salty towards it which is fine.
Also god bless aMSa. Such a great player and person as well.
Cannabis warning.
time to go play this awesomesauce Epic game !

Epic Fail Bro!
I felt some of my brain cells just die.
Yeah but I don't care about most things
I really need to stop caring. Getting way too salty about this shit.
Yeah, I wouldn't mind nearly as much if people did know the origin.
It'll be fine!!!
Did you see his fucking apex showing?
5th place in a tournament with all 5 smash gods there

System transfer for your NNID and data.
I sometimes forget that other people are humans too
I think I remember that story.
Say No, she isn't good for you.
Not really. I asked her what she likes about him and she answered he's pretty, neat, but he's not very funny. I told her, because of her location ( she lives in village in the mountains pretty fare away) she mustn't have much choice on who to date. She replyed, that it would be pretty hard to convince someone to move and live there, so yeah, she hasn't much choice. It goes on, and was a pretty funny conversation.

Thanks! I might actually figure out/know how to play poker now! Blackjack is GOAT anyways...
That's what I'm worried will happen. She has a boyfriend and yet she still hangs out with me and is just as seductive and flirtatious. I keep doing dumb shit. I feel nothing but lust toward her and that is not good. There is no emotion driving me.
I'm thinking this is what will have to happen. But my anime... I guess I'll just have to count them as fallen soldiers.
Well it runs fine on both my desktop and laptop.
Yeah, that's the main reason I find it hard to actually hate people. Too much empathy doesn't help tho.
Also mathaou just don't fucking do it
DON'T FUCKING DO IT
it's really that simple
