I do wonder, if I had a fighting game as a child, if I could have had the basics drilled into me with sheer autism. It still would have been pointless because I would had nobody to teach me or play against in the end
Although, with Melee, I had over 1000 hours on my save file (yes, really) and even without any sort of "pro" training and looking up pro strat and all, I was "top scrub" beating people who clearly practice on pro strats on pure fucking intuition
Couldn't fucking play online ever because my entire game was pulling out weird shit at the last possible second, can't fucking do this with lag -

cool_boy_mew (coolboymew@shitposter.club)'s status on Monday, 25-Sep-2023 11:44:55 JST cool_boy_mew @mischievoustomato @Tadano @meso At this point I'm too fucking lazy. I was never much into competitive games, I hate training for them and yeah. I liked TF2 because random pubs would mostly not give that much of a shit, so it was chill, but most games are fucking cancer nowadays
I don't have the basic drilled in and I don't really want at this point. A lot of fighting games has historically been low single player content, and, yeah. I've always been drifting from game to game and I'd rather keep it that way -

☻ (mrsaturday@shitposter.club)'s status on Monday, 25-Sep-2023 12:20:14 JST ☻ @coolboymew @mischievoustomato @Tadano @meso What sucks is it's possible for fighters to have great single player content (SSB:Brawl, Soul Calibur 3, Rival Schools series) but most developers go "too much work." Esports taking off and fighting games having a ready-made pro scene in the FGC killed any reason for devs to include any solo content. cool_boy_mew likes this. -

☻ (mrsaturday@shitposter.club)'s status on Monday, 25-Sep-2023 12:20:22 JST ☻ @mischievoustomato @Tadano @coolboymew @meso Especially in a genre where the people that care are autistic enough to count individual frames and determine whether or not a character is viable based on how many frames they're vulnerable for after they use key moves. Playing fighters online is a waste of time and completely unfun. cool_boy_mew likes this. -
Johnny Peligro (mischievoustomato@5dollah.click)'s status on Monday, 25-Sep-2023 12:20:33 JST Johnny Peligro @mrsaturday @Tadano @coolboymew @meso yeah. i extend that to most competitive stuff at times, i dont consider myself too good at games but i dont really play against others cool_boy_mew likes this. -
☻ (mrsaturday@shitposter.club)'s status on Monday, 25-Sep-2023 12:20:52 JST ☻ @mischievoustomato @Tadano @coolboymew @meso I tried to get into being a pro CVS2 player in the early 2000s. You find out that if you're not super talented, don't have the right mindset, or you don't have a crazy amount of time to devote to practicing, you plateau, then you realize it's more fulfilling to play with friends and not be crazy good at the game. cool_boy_mew likes this. -

cool_boy_mew (coolboymew@shitposter.club)'s status on Monday, 25-Sep-2023 12:23:43 JST cool_boy_mew @mischievoustomato @Tadano @mrsaturday @meso pretty much
And then these games more or less changes yearly, new updates, new balance, new entry, nobody playing this game, this is the new hot game, etc -

They just played it soo much they could internalize what was safe and what wasn't. I'm not sure what is more autistic tbh.
I was like a pro scrub at sf2 through high school. Got a chance to play ST vs Seth Killian at college. Then it became obvious there was entirely different tier of play involved. That tier honestly didn't interest me, but I can appreciate it. The fighting game scene has been basically ruined by esports, but I still play them with friends locally when I can- and the tourneys are still reasonably amusing.cool_boy_mew likes this. -
Dad (noyoushutthefuckupdad@shitposter.world)'s status on Monday, 25-Sep-2023 21:27:39 JST Dad @mrsaturday @mischievoustomato @Tadano @coolboymew @meso also, that game has some major bugs that (IMO) ruin it at the pro level. cool_boy_mew likes this. -

Dad (noyoushutthefuckupdad@shitposter.world)'s status on Monday, 25-Sep-2023 21:28:46 JST Dad @mrsaturday @Tadano @coolboymew @meso @mischievoustomato yeah, characters like Blanka and Sagat are colossal in that game.
Capcom vs SNK needed a third game in the series. a third strike, if you will.
no, SVC Chaos doesn't count.cool_boy_mew likes this. -

The game's awful but I still love it. Whoever designed Red Arremer and then decided to make him playable are dangerous men. cool_boy_mew likes this.
