gently caress! This is the guy who made the Soviet Tager guide on how to play Tager too! I loved that drat video! How could you betray me like this Mike Z?!

I may be wrong, but in BlazBlue all the timeloop nonsense is essentially backstory? The only timeloop that occurs during the events of any of the actual games is Central Fiction, which is very definitely the ending of the storyline where things get wrapped up. Everything prior to this, from Calamity Trigger to Chronophantasma, is all a single 'final' timeline with no resets.

Calamity Trigger is nothing but timeloops. Continuum Shift is about taking power from the Takamagahara which is causing time loops. Chronophantasma is about timeloops too, I think, I actually don't remember much of Chronophantasma except the Six Heroes plot and the ending. Centralfiction has already been covered.

EDIT2: Oh yeah, and Bang, objectively best character, finally being relevant. Although Valkenhayn comes close to being best character.

Funny that the conversation seems to have moved on, but I'm 99% sure that all the events from Calamity Trigger and leading up to Central Fiction is one timeline, namely it being the final 'loop'. We're merely told of the hundreds of loops that have come before, but the series of events depicted in the games are largely the loop finally coming to an end.

You're going to be doing matchmaking yourself for the vast majority of non-fightcade non-SFV/Tekken games regardless of system. You'll find occasional random matches, sure, and maybe more often on consoles depending on game and time, but that's just the nature of our dumb little hobby. Not enough people into it to support the large number of games.

It's not a terrible thing though, if you can find a reasonably active community. Having fewer randos makes for easier learning and improving in my experience.

PC is the best place to play most fighting games. Between fightcade and discord for Steam games, there's always stuff to play. PSN sucks balls and they make you pay for that.

I don't know how someone barely avoids his community turning on him due to making the most poorly timed joke in human history and then like three weeks later opens his stupid loving mouth in a DM and unleashes the floodgates of people talking about how much he actually sucks

goddamnit mike z

dude always came off weird but not in a creepy way until now

it's relatively low-grade (compared to some of the poo poo we've been seeing recently) on the scale of being a creep but he's still a creep nonetheless, although if it was a frequent thing the community going "he has to be held accountable" just now is a bit precious...didn't you notice this poo poo before?

Considering how people's accusations have the potential to lead to their harassment in general, among other things, as well as how loving terrible the FGC is, I don't blame people for not coming forward sooner.

Oh, I don't even mean the victims, it's just that I'm always left with a bad taste in my mouth when apparently someone being a creep is a well-known secret in a community with progressive enough figureheads. It just smacks of insular behavior, y'know, no one wants to shake the boat until it's already sinking.

On the other hand, it is kinda exhausting to try and call out people being weird and creepy in small communities, everyone just acts like it's no big deal and you end up being the "annoying one" in no time.

The more people get exposed for being shitheads in the FGC the more it frustrates me that Infiltration gets to remain part of it.
(Though to be clear it's still good and cool that shitheads get exposed.)

I still get heated every time I see Dyne's name come up because that fucker ruined the Virtua Fighter discord server I was in by purely by being there due to his posse following him in and being just as insufferable.

I don't even know if there's a cleaner VF server because Oneida turned out to be a creepo too.

(please Sega port VF5FS to a newer console or PC)
