DBFZ, T7, BBTag, and SFV are also all free to play for 3 days.

e: whoops, was misinformed on DBFZ being free. The rest are though! Play BBTag

Tekken is $20, and Xrd with Rev2 upgrade is $23, both fantastic deals. I think that's better than it was during the summer sale.

Everyone should try out BBTag, it seems like a dumb game but it's surprisingly fun and deep because simple stuff like "pushblocking exists and bursting isn't always a get out of jail free card" makes for some fun times.

What?

Is it bad that after finally playing cross tag battle that I really want to get under night now? Not even because I’m interested in the gameplay per-se, because I just want to know what the gently caress kind of game produces characters like these?

Like, I’ve just never been this curious about a game before. Even if I hadn’t gotten into fighting games with p4a, I don’t think this game would have made me that much more interested in the series. The characters are cool and all, but everything feels pretty normal. Same with blazblue, I feel like even if I didn’t already know about it I would probably write it off as something cool that might be interesting to play sometime.

But under night gives me a powerful curiosity I’ve never gotten before. Hyde looks normal at first but his animations are just different enough from my expectations that he gives off a completely different vibe than I initially expected. Orie (who my phone won’t stop autocorrecting to Oreo) is apparently a persona character??? Carmine has the personality I’d expect someone who looks like as much of an edgelord like Gordeau to have, who seems like a real chill dude???? How the gently caress is Waldstein such an absolute unit????????

I really like how French-Bread embraced absolutely ridiculous normals after Melty Blood and Nero's j.C and decided to give their grappler a weaker version of it.

Wait until Merkava is out, then you'll see some real poo poo.

BBTag has created such a huge boom of interest in UNIST that is pretty nice to see. It even has the most entrants at AnimEVO. :unsmith: Too bad my girl Hilda isn't gonna be in Tag. She's an evil lady who throws swords from across the screen while laughing at you.

I also got interested in UNIST via BBtag and am excited to try it out when it's out on steam. have watched some streams of it and it looks really clean and elegant for an anime game.

The GRD system rewarding good defense is why I love UNIST so much. I'm stoked for it to come out on PC because I can actually practice it at home now and also load it onto an old laptop for some poverty sessions.

I'm personally more sad that seth, the platonic ideal of "teleports behind you", isn't in this game

also no nanase so I can blast her theme 24/7

For some reason tag game just dont do it for me vs 1v1 games but if bbtag makes more unist players it will go on my GOAT list as an hon mention

Absolver is also free this weekend. It's a really cool non-traditional fighting game and while it's not perfect, it deserves way more love than it gets.

I'm absolutely buying UNIST when it's out on PC, or if it goes on sale on PSN again or something. The game already looked really fun when I watched it in tournaments, but after playing BBTag I really want to dig into it.

Not really hard to get into at all. As far as 2D SF esque games are concerned, it's fairly fast paced due to how great running is. Combos aren't too hard as well since you can chain lights into mediums into heavies like the vs games.

Though, the one thing that might take a while to get used to is the Gougi system and how you gotta remember how to activate certain cards in a match through doing certain actions like blocking more or using up meter. Really cool system otherwise


Real hurthling! posted:

The light is fine. They give you 2 paid gougis free on rotation anyway.

The only hard part about fexl for a poo poo player like me is the cancel window for specials is way too tight imo

Thanks for the answers. I went ahead and picked up the light version while it's on sale.

I'll concede that they lack the visual flair you would come to expect when we live in a time of NRS releases and Street Fighter 5, but they're definitely good games.

so uh, I got Tekken 7 on the free weekend

do I remember correctly that Lucky Chloe is apparently pretty low tier? because i've been playing with her and she actually owns, she seems like she's basically T7's Eddy (and Eddy is... I don't even know what the gently caress happened to Eddy, all of his stuff is really slow and easy to punish nowadays)

e: :shittypop: holy gently caress apparently she's rock bottom on the tier list

you aren't playing at a level where the tier list is going to matter much and the game is pretty well balanced anyway. chloe isn't great but she can get the job done

"She's low tier until you get hit" -Twitch chat. I was diggin her in scrubland when I asked MY WIFE to pick a new char for me, Jeonding (hope I'm spelling that right) has put in some work with her in high level tourney play and made people question the rock bottom thing.
