Volt

Oh shit. I can see @KingTubb
taking off his gloves in anger.

Shit, I forgot how bored I was with this game after an hour… Maybe there’s a reason I never put more time into a Metroid game lol

I haven’t booted up my switch in a year easy, but I’m hype to play this. I’ve never played a Metroid game for more than an hour, so I’m interested in trying to figure it out

Hollow Knight enters the Chat

I don't see the correlation.

Metroid Dread will drop next Friday.
 
No more indies, OG coming back to show them how its done. 

I don't see the correlation.

Now I'm curious. Did we get another sick Brazilian rep in FGs? 
 
I'm dying at this tho:

 
Why did SNK dunk on this dude like that? 🤣

I don't see the correlation.

Wait.
 
Why is this on the main options menu? This is something that if you're going to adjust, it's on a match-by-match case, it should be on the online match screen like 02UM and +R?
 
Wtf?

I don't see the correlation.

That's because [insert joke about volt not playing games]
 
Sako plays on wifi? 

I mostly did training mode/tutorial stuff. I'm lowkey waiting for a thicc mommy to come out to maybe hope back or maybe I'll just meme with Sol when I get the bug. I've mostly been playing indie shit. I 100% Forged in Shadow Torch which was a really fun Metroidvania. And since I had a physical copy of DS3 I completely forgot about I booted it up and now I'm getting my cheeks clapped in Lothric Castle. Once I beat DS3 I'm playing Demons Souls Remake. I'm trying to pass the time till Elden Ring comes out lmao
 
Also Oregon life is fine. I wage slave all day to pay the bills. I'm probably gonna start posting more here again cuz I miss you guys.

It happens. Sometimes you just gotta load up some 🔥 ass single player game and have fun.
 
Did you try strive or nah? Also you doing good? Oregon got weird for a while there.

I haven't been posting much cuz I haven't been playing any fightan gamez... the fire just isn't there right now. Mostly Dark Souls 3 and Kena lmao
 
But Isla looks fucking amazing and her theme is SF3 as fuck. Also I think I warmed up to Luke's design in SFV. Call it Capholms Syndrome  but I think he looks fine.
 
Also I'm not playing Melty Blood. Game looked dead as fuck before the first trailer came out and I'm not spending 50 bucks on 11 generic anime characters.

It’s more of an arcade with cutscenes than a story mode. There are a few cutscenes that are shared by every team with a few teams getting a slightly different cutscene for when the final boss shows up.  All of the base teams have an ending when you pair them up correctly and the two bosses also have an ending when you have them in your team. Sadly none of the DLC characters have an ending.

Also everyone (with the exception of the bosses) has 3, sometimes 4 with DLC, special intros with other characters only in story mode. 

 
 

There's definitely a whole category of Akuma players that coast on air fireball being a kind of awkward knowledge check against most characters.  Then they run into a Rose or Menat or Alex who have reliable fireball immune AA, and they have literally no plan B.
 
It's hilarious because the rest of Akuma's game is so fucking good and they never noticed.

Now I'm curious. Did we get another sick Brazilian rep in FGs?

Does anyone even care at this point?

lol I literally don’t play Akuma because of how gutted his air fireball is
 
For better or worse it’s his character defining move.

Ran into someone called "ZonersLickGoats" who was playing Bison which I thought was weird because Bison kind of screws over zoners really hard in this game. So I check his profile and he used to be a Zangief main. Some heavy PTSD right there. In the end I beat his Bison with Rose, which was strangely poetic.
 
After that I fought some flowcharty Balrog I wans't prepared for, who stunned me and then proceeded to teabag because apparently winning one of his best matchups didn't inflate his ego enough. Sometimes I think those in-lore assholes like Balrog and Urien also attract real-life assholes as their players.
 
Third guy was an Akuma whose neutral game consisted of air fireball almost exclusively. After I snatched him out of it with Soul Bind for the sixth or seventh time he just quit mid animation which was the funniest thing I'd seen all day and more than made up for the shitty Balrog experience.
 
SFV online, such a rollercoaster.

I'm usually not a regular on the eventhubs hate train but this was a really poor showing. They even say it's similar to Rose's VT2 which is another case of bollocks. I mean if the visual afterimage of a move is all we need to call things being the same, then I say Ibuki's backdash is identical to Akira's VT2 too.

GAY ASIAN!?
