Fired up Wrestling Empire last night after not touching it since it launched on switch and spent an hour fixing all the names of the characters.

Start my career, first match in wrestling school is against Regal. Barely a minute into the match and he's launched me out of the ring over the post, and I land square on the steps.

Health bar instantly totally red and flashing.

Regal drags me into the ring, beats the poo poo out of me some more and then pins me.

My injuries were fatal and I died, having won 0% of my 1 matches in my illustrious 1 week career.

12/10 game owns

This post caused me to buy the game, took me 20 minutes to do the tutorial and my first career match started with the ref throwing a mic into my face. I then won buy countout after kicking out off a pin so hard hhh flew out of the ring into the announce table. Good game.

I missed all the footage but I did see Chugs reaction when Uno said that tsa broke his ps5.

They give away the major twist with the cover and the title, all AEW wrestlers are ghosts cursed to fight forever by a cocaine witch.

Adam Cole is already in the game, you don’t need to waste a caw slot.

my uncle works for sega and he said that the CAW system in the AEW game will be like old ps1 monster hunter and you have to put in music CDs to get more wrestlers

Excited to finally see Joanna Newsom vs Jenny Lewis.

I just want the Switch version to be decent. Prepared to buy it on PS5 if it's not but I would really like some good handheld wrestling since Fire Pro is never coming to it

If you’ve got money to burn you can get a Steam Deck and play fire pro on that.

I think the Deck is really cool and worth it. I do not have a gaming computer though.

Looks like a Switch to me in which case it still looks pretty good compared to WWE's last attempt to make a switch game

Deck screen is 16:10 so you usually have letterboxing like you see in that pic. Also that little notch on the top makes me think it’s a deck.

One vid said CAW was embargoed at this time, but added "formulas are back", so I take it to mean that there's no Community Creations.

I managed to create a CAW by saving a default CAW and then going back to edit it. I was able to create someone, saving frequently, then it crashed again in the move editor. Game of the year

Which platform are you playing?

Anyone try the game on a steam deck?

The thought of playing a wrestling game competitively is insane to me.

Anyone know if the acid drop is in the game, and what it’s called if so? Picking moves is a god drat mess.

I didn't see it while looking through, Shiranui 3 is probably your best bet

Confirmed today you just need to hold L1/R1 to block/counter grapples or strikes. Holding L1 (grapple block) also lets you initiate tests of strength

Yeah I couldn’t find it either. Took 60% of my steam decks battery but I finally finished making my caw.

Right trigger on ground/left bumper while standing?

I’ve figured it out

R2 turns a downed opponent over
R1 rotates a grappled opponent.

Also I’m 100% going to lose this handicap match vs the Bucks. I hate handicap matches

If you can get em outside the ring and just suplex the gently caress out of one of them into the barricades.

That is how I defeated Yuka and Brodie Lee

Match was over in thirty seconds. One of them hit me before the bell rang and I never had a chance to recover. Rage quit, I’ll try again later

Malcolm Excellent posted:

Another useful tip, If your guy has the bail out perk, use that poo poo like crazy.


Eddie Kingston has it. Just press in the right stock when down in the right thumb stick

That just leads to them hitting me with topes and getting signatures faster. I’m just gonna eat the L next time. It doesn’t help that I’m terrible at reversals.

I have finished the road to elite, and am now an evp. The secret to winning a handicap match is to buy the permanent special power.

I have righted coward Tony’s greatest wrong and given Best Friends gold. This game is very fun, it’s a shame the caw sucks so much.
