A.o.D. posted:How can KI be anime when only one of the European characters has blonde hair and he's an actual viking, and there's another actual viking that doesn't have blonde hair? Furthermore, only one character has blue hair, and that's the werewolf. Also, only one character speaks japanese and she's a vengeful ghost from feudal Japan and she isn't even cute or childlike or have a huge rack? Because the true essence of anime is that anime can be anything to anyone. If you will it to be anime, it is.

Night Blade posted:As it turns out, the Wii U gamepad is a dogshit fighting game controller, but Tekken Tag 2 Wii U is a ton of fun with all of its extra bullshit modes. Unfortunately, the shitheads at gamestop gave me a scratched disk, so it stutters during loading and menus. Mad Catz put out Wii U fightsticks when TTT2 first released.

I know nothing about Tekken other than I have fun mindlessly playing it and watch streams whenever Markman/Aris are commentating, but isn't Lucky Chloe supposed to be a pseudo-capo or am I way off the mark?

LORD OF BOOTY posted:I get the impression no filthy gaijin arcades are gonna get this? I know the original Nesica x Live online thing didn't work in America, period, even if you imported a cab. There's not a chance in the world. At best Round 1 will get a version of the cabinet that has no netplay or ability to update 2 years after the fact.

LORD OF BOOTY posted:I seriously don't get why these arcade systems are specifically locked to Japan. Do they straight-up just not want gaijin money, in the manner of some of the weirder doujin devs? Because modern arcade cabinets are based around an internet infrastructure America is not capable of. When you play versus people on most Nesica cabinets you're not actually playing the person sitting next/across from you. You're connecting via the internet and playing a netplay game, it's just the latency is so good in Japan, the difference is negligible if you aren't looking for it. Arcades in America carrying Nesica cabinets is basically the equivalent of someone playing Phantasy Star Online 2 with a fan translation, it's not intended, but the developers aren't gonna stop you from throwing money at them. Lastly, there is not enough of an arcade scene in America to justify Taito setting up a US branch, create servers, and run support for said servers. Much like PSO2, the numbers just don't add up.

Smoking Crow posted:Why aren't arcades dead in Japan I think a lot of it has to do with the types of games that are in arcades are more popular in Japan. Fighting games and shooters have always been bigger over there. Likewise, the ways in which those genres have progressed over the years lends itself more to Japan. Look at all the waifus in the latest Dodonpachi release (I know this isn't exactly a huge game), and the fact that Blazblue far eclipsed the popularity of Street Fighter IV in Japanese arcades. The stuff coming out of Japan went down the otaku Rabbit hole and moved further and further away from stuff that has a global appeal. Lastly, Japanese arcades moved to a format of machines where the game the machine was playing could be swapped out for another one, see the Neo Geo MVS/CPS2 as well as modern stuff like Nesica x Live, whereas US arcades stuck with the one machine/one game format that arcades started with (the exception being the Neo Geo MVS). Also, arcades in America got a really bad stigma of being a place where gangbangers/drug dealers hung out, whereas the Japanese view these places as a bar/place you can go to after work or school, and not somewhere a parent wants to keep their kid from going. I'm sure there are plenty of other reasons, but those are the ones that jump out at me.

bhsman posted:Happy to hear about SFV getting some arcade presence, but I'm kinda shocked KOF14 didn't already. They have an exclusivity deal with Sony, so they may not have wanted to hurt that relationship by announcing the arcade release at the exact same time. Or it could be the internal team wanted an arcade version but the Chinese publisher (who I imagine are the ones that secured the Sony deal) made the developers put priority on the PS4 version first and the arcade version was secondary. Also, given the size of the team it was probably easier for them to focus on bug testing/updating a single version, and then porting that final product to arcade, rather than having to do all the work simultaneously on two different versions that are running on different hardware.

Xand_Man posted:So I played about 10m of Blade Arcus; why does it belong in the airdasher thread? It's Anime as gently caress but it's otherwise a pretty chill footsies fighter. Because of the aesthetic and the fact that most of the known players that play these games are associated with the anime/airdasher scene. As far as the gameplay goes, both Blade Arcus and Koihime Enbu have much more in common with SF/KOF/SamSho than they do Guilty Gear.

anime was right posted:rf2 is pretty fun, so either dimps isnt that bad of a company, the talent left, they got lucky, or capcom whipped them into making shittier design choices I don't have a source for my quotes, but I remember someone at Capcom in the runup to the release of SFV saying that Capcom's internal team had more involvement with SFV than they did with SFIV. So my guess is that Dimps is alright, and a lot of lovely design decisions came from Capcom. But again, this all pretty much baseless speculation.

Smoking Crow posted:Necalli's priest of Huitzilopotchli costume should be his default look Agreed. Honestly the thing that sucks most about him and most of the lovely-looking characters is the godawful physics or lack thereof on any piece of hair/fabric that doesn't have scripted animations. Like if Necallis' hair had actual animation and wasn't just a loving Havok Physics engine demo dumped on someone's head I think the whole dreadlock thing would look a lot better.

Guessing once you really get into it, their differences will be much more obvious. I can't find the tweet, but I believe someone at Arcsys said all of the characters they've shown so far have a very "orthodox" style, i.e. none of the characters with crazy mechanics/move lists have been shown yet.

SRK didn't have anything about the Red Bull Proving Grounds until after it finished. Also, it seems like more and more I see events cause of people that I follow on twitch that are never mentioned on any of the main sites. As far as a website that is good for promoting events and weeklies, there's basically nothing outside of Twitter.

It's just a poor choice for him to expect people to go look up terms in a dictionary. But that's why I'll continue to lament how the genre is poo poo at teaching. Adding to that the fact that the jargon can differ by subgenres and there are so many terms across all fighting games that it's very easy to make tutorials and guides super overwhelming.

Like they were so focused on regurgitating the models and animations from 3 they couldn't even update the design of their own characters to either something new or something that falls in line with their current look.
