Like...the main vertical box I can understand, you want it to anti air, ok that's fine. A little ridiculous, but fine, it's anime, whatever. WHAT THE gently caress is that loving extra box on the top doing? Why?! Who is responsible for this?!

That move is literally called Chasing the Unreachable Dream. She catches what cannot be caught.

That hitbox, while it is EXTREMELY good, makes a lot of sense in context.

Oh, that's kind of a letdown. Who is responsible for these fake news hitbox pictures?!

There's always the rear end in a top hat kid who always stepped beyond fighting games and started adopting hitboxes out of Monster Hunter so he could just hit everything at all time

I'm not interested in constructive criticism, believe me.
It takes 7f for Slayers 6p to have a hurtbox that low an 18f for it to have an active hitbox. Chipps 6p hurtbox is that low on frame 1 and is active in 9f!!

It's hosed up how hard it is to talk to people in modern games. I just played like 20 games against a solid Jin player in T7 and I wanted to say GGs but its impossible to do so. I have no clue who he was or how to contact him. gently caress you bamco! gently caress you microsoft! gently caress you stoners from 2006 who kept telling 12 year olds swear words on Xbox Live!

Dunno about on the 'bone but on Steam or PS4 there's a Profile button in the post-match menu.

At least once a day a PS4 player messages me to complain about my delightful Hwoaranging about and to make assumptions about my sexuality

While 6P is every character's anti-air not every 6P shares the same hitbox, and none are as funny as Slayer's. It just turns his entire upper body into a hitbox, where a lot of others just have a relatively normal hitbox but give upper body invulnerability.

Yeah that sucks for them, especially because I don't know how many people will buy it on PC if the price is the same as on PS4.

It sounds like they're banking on PC/arcade revenue to fund more content, too... I wonder how it'll do in arcades.

EDIT: Nesica 2's more barren than I thought - Blazblue CF, KOF14, Arcana Blood and friggin' USF4 right now, FEXL and SNK Heroines by the end of the year. It might do okay!

It's like Lenin said
I bought Tekken 7 and won 2/3 matches of my first set. and though it's not directly comparable to SF, I think I did more than what the Tekken equivalent of holding downback and flash kicking people who jump at me is. I definitely feel a lot better about this than my capabilities in 2D fighters, I guess it's just a better fit.

Tekken is dope as hell and I think it's a lot more "intuitive" at low levels of play than most 2D fighters. It certainly clicked for me a lot more back when I first started playing fighting games. 7 is so good and absolutely worth the money. Only thing I don't like about Tekken is how mechanics intensive good movement is. As a pretty casual fighting game player on pad getting good at Korean backdashing is more than I really want to deal with.

On the topic of Namco games, here's a couple of neat moments from the SCVI Network Test I actually remembered to clip on PS4:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1-iWWLRg9xU
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kp8lurFfD5A
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ttZ7xZR0XHk

I really had a blast with SCVI, can't wait for it to come out. They did an amazing job of making every character extremely unique.There's an immense amount of depth with systems like Lethal Hits and the various character traits, such as Nightmare's Terror Charge where he gets a single use "EX" move (really just a Soul Charge only extension) after gaining Terror Charge via Soul Charge expiring, certain attack throws, or triggering one of his armor move explosions.

I wouldn't really consider myself a casual fighting game player, but if I can kbd you can absolutely do it too!

How I learned was just practicing it for a few minutes at a time between working on whatever else in training mode.

I'd practice whatever I was actively practicing, then spend a minute or so just practicing the KBD motion on whichever side of the screen I was on every once and awhile. Eventually it just sort of clicked for me and I could do it on the left side forever. After that I focused on the right side and I can mostly do it there as well, though way more sloppy in my execution.

The trick for me was thinking of drawing a triangle with my movement inputs rather than actively cancelling a backdash fwiw

I have no doubt I *could* get it down, I just don't really want to put in the time. I have to be pretty selective with my game time nowadays, wife and job and school and all that. Which is fine! SCVI is almost here and that'll be my fighter of choice for the foreseeable future. I think your advice is rock solid for people that do want to work on it though, it's one of those muscle memory things that you really just need to put the time in on.

That might have bothered me before I played it but now I don't care that they left a bunch of cool characters out of their lame game.

Skullgirls (only real?) defensive option, aka the infinite protection system, is just another way to land resets on people as far as I remember.

I was having some baffling control issues until I realized it was steam causing them. If you're playing any fighting games on steam, go into the settings and disable all the big picture mode controller support. It'll block inputs from your stick and input them as controller button presses if you've got it turned on.
