It's an enormously rewarding genre. I definitely encourage folks to put some time into it because it's loving awesome.

Sometimes ya just gotta find the right game maybe the right character! And never hurts to pop in the thread or a Discord or something and ask for help with anything too, FGs generally have a shared base set of fundamental skills/thought process but it can be a lot less obvious than like an FPS where you can feel "I should aim better and take more cover". And it can be as simple as having something pointed out like "jump less", there's a lot of simple stuff to pick up before having to think about 100 hit optimal punish combos and junk while still having fun and getting better and beating up on people.

And yeah as a Josie main she has wierd stuff for new players. I know exactly what counter you are talking about lol

I'm a big fan of Kunimitsu at the moment but she's not for beginners

You know, when I was a teen button mashing, I played Jaycee/Asuka in Tag 2, so maybe I'll check them out whenever Tekken 8 drops. I also liked Steve Fox a lot, but he seems even harder than Josie lol. I also like Eliza a lot. I know 2D characters get a lot of flack in Tekken 7, but she seems like the least egregious of them by a country mile.

I'm glad to hear Tekken and SFV top 8 got so much praise. I missed them, but I scheduled a day where I'll watch the vods with a friend, and it sounds like a grand time.

E: I've been pulling for Dudley in SF6, but Kimberley looks dope. Excited to try her out, this game looks gorgeous.

yeah i really just gotta pick one and go with it, part of my problem is that i've got sf5 and ggstrive and also +r and also tekken 7 and also also vf5us and where do i fuckin START

sf6 looks dope as poo poo so maybe i should cut my teeth on 5 for the time being?

Eliza's honestly a good starter.

She's not hard to play and good buttons and options with more traditional controls

Juri's snapshot and gloating is probably one of the best victory animations I've seen in years. It's crazy how much more love and soul seem to be in SF6 than early SFV.

Yuup there's a lot of cool playable stuff out atm! Imo SFV or Strive would be the most straightforward/easiest to pick up and have fun.

I'm not an expert but I feel like not wearing shoes on a motorcycle is poor safety.

Juri's looking like a top-notch character I will play for exactly six minutes before never touching again.

Dont be in such a hurry to grow up, since there's nothin' a kid can't do.
Juri's always had both eyes, she only wears the eyepatch in sfv because she's a dork. She takes it off after her v trigger.
