This is the fighting game thread and not the VN thread but the short of it is I think the new designs, the action scenes in the trailer, updating the setting so everyone has a smartphone and the fact that it's a ps4/switch release all mean they're going to change the story/tone in ways that don't fit the appeal of the original in order to appeal to the tastes of the larger fate audience when they probably should've just made another fate thing instead in that case (like an HD release/sequel of that fighting game capcom published).

I know you probably don't mean it that way but considering Tsukihime started as a porn game that can be read in a very different way.

Anyone had any luck getting DS4 button prompts on Mortal Kombat 11 on Steam? I've tried all sorts of stuff I found online but regardless of what I do it stills shows a generic controller in the MK settings (despite detecting it as a DS4 in Steam). This is all through a wired connection.

Most posts I find online suggest doing the stuff found in this steam community post: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1721650432

Anyone have any suggestions? I'm trying to get into MK on PC but the Xbox prompts on a PS4 controller is confusing my noob brain.

It's a free fighting game with rollback that you play straight from your browser, no login or anything. It's pretty simple to get into and seems to have quite a few people playing, if the online counter is to be believed (around 600 players just now). I played a match just now and it was pretty smooth, game's pretty fun too.

This game is very fun

e. I have played more of it now, I love this

Everyone seems to play Noodle online, but Beef is really strong. You can launch off a jab, his heavy is a good poke/anti air and he even has a fireball.

beef's can take his turn back super easily, has I think? the only reversal in the game, and his H buffer is nutty.

e: i was really vibing with garlic until I learned that you can literally just walk out of his grab(??) and without a low to check that im not feeling it

anji is better than any of the newcomers in Xrd, both visually and in terms of not being miserable to fight

Yeah, dunno I can support this hot take. Anji might go 4-6 against the entire cast in AC+R except Axl, which is haha awful for him, but he's the most obnoxious, ignorant 4-6 in existence and it gets old just sitting on throw tech until Anji's done pressing buttons because he's super-free to punish if you don't get ticked but he also just randomly steals matches if you try to take your turn before he's done.

I mean, he's not the worst of the old designs (that's Baiken. Change Baiken's gimmick so maybe the next time she comes back I'll be happy to see it) but outside Theory Jack-O I don't see a Xrd cast member nearly as infuriating and boring to fight against as Anji 'Autoguard' 'Fuujin' Mito.

our only hope is dlc, I haven't fully given up the dream. landing red kick loops is some of the most satisfying combos I've ever actually done in matches, bc it's both annoying to time well and learn at first and it because it just looks badass when your opponent is getting wallbounced from half screen by this old man's huge powerful feet.

Congratulations on not getting fit in 2011!
Can confirm that Alpha 2 and 3 are indeed bumping on Fightcade. You'll find a match, for sure, whenever you want. You'll also find infinite wombo combos literally crawling out the walls. The lobbies could use a dozen or so new players in both games too as everyone mostly plays KOF. Its rollback Alpha. gently caress it, why not?

What Power Ranges needs is the ability to get out of infinites, like Tatsunoku vs Capcoms's Baroque. Make it require and drain either a full Megazord bar or a full Super meter to be a last resort deal. Infinites are as common as water to a fault (and I feel like the devs don't like what the meta has become and also don't really know what else to do) but its super fun and "Capcom minus Marvel plus Sentai" just warms this old man's heart.

I'm actually just getting into Alpha 2 and 3 having never, ever played them outside of the bad PS2 port that I think I had. So hoping to run into some new players myself lol

I absolutely love BFTG, but I'd really like them to implement something like bursting in BBTAG, link it to the zord meter or have it consume the super gauge or something. The damage is so high and the resets are so slippery that having some sort of tool to help you escape it would really be helpful. That and it needs a button buffer imo, as I don't believe it has one today and it make some more complicated juggle combos really, really finnicky

It blows my mind a bit how much the Alpha team was killing it and Capcom just threw together this team for SF3 and just how lovely their overall approach was to that game (all according to the recent polygon article).

that's more like a command hop, you can't do a neutral one, it always commits to the same jumping attack so jumping interactions are weird...

I'll say though, it's kinda cool having a serviceable browser fighting game, it's a pretty good lunch break distraction.

On the topic of stripped down fighting games, I still have some Steam alpha keys for an amateur project I'm working on in my spare time.

N7YVQ-YXBQG-ZD(four)H7
24FTE-D373F-XJR(seven)T
VL4VI-JH8AI-T0(eight)9P
46VZD-B2TVB-(nine)GY5R
Y(four)FYX-MKGBJ-C7EJ3


Still needs a lot of work, but I recently added full controller/rebinding support and it's playable online via Steam Remote Play (it's simultaneous turn based so the netcode itself doesn't matter that much).
