    Which is why I reiterate you didnt turn out fine bro. 

    Since, going back and forth with you is starting to get annoying, I've turned off my notifications, and I'm just going to say "whatever you say, commoner". Whatever makes me feel better from now on, is all that matters. I don't need anyone who is the exact opposite of me to question nor lecture me. 

     

    Since I've migrated to those that are similar enough to me, it's best to not dwell here any further.

    You weren't doing good to do good. You where doing good to feel good about yourself and to feel like you measured up or fit in with a crowd. It wasn't for you because you weren't doing it right to begin with. You where doing right and looking around for how doing right would benefit you. You now don't see the point because it doesn't produce something for yourself when doing good and helping is about uplifting others, not yourself.  You didn't help people to help them. You helped them to help yourself. 

    Of course, because it was always hard to feel what you majority people feel toward life. I could never understand this and likely never will.

    This is the beginning thought processes for nihilism.

    I've flirted with nihilism before, but I was never all the way in it. Showing support, appeasing, and willing to help others, which was for their benefit in my local area most of my life, is a decent reflection on how most of the world will treat you, which was never in my favor. That has been the source of my pain and despair, of trying to measure up to others, so I could fit in, because I knew I was no where near the average person growing up. So, I've given up on the majority, and I'm ok with that. Caring for others, requires too much of a valiant effort. It was never for me to begin with.

    Based on past posts I would argue otherwise. 

    I mean, I've converted back to my old self recently prior to registering here. A lot less being self-conscious of what other people think of me by living more of a rebel life. It's about having more control, than having people control you. Most people don't really care about each other, so why should I do the same? It doesn't mean I can't find interest in like-minded people or someone that intrigues me, though.

  5. Wow, another match with an Allen player at such a caliber. This one was named Solo. He definitely well adjusted his neutral performance on the ground and eventually caught up with me in our third rank session, with him winning this one. Apparently, he saw what I was doing, and adopted it to his approach, which in turn improved gradually. I think my fundamentals and primitive universal options have returned to me, at least on a decent level. I will move on to the EX trio techniques with a little more experimentation,  displaying my ideas in certain situations. I will develop and forward my hypothesis on when to apply them. In due time.


    I don't put much stock in the online ranking system, but I've noticed that with doing rank matches with no restrictions, I have a much better chance of playing someone. I'm at rank 62, so, the more I advance, the more I should become better. This seems to be out of my perception of past rank systems, but considering what the rank players have offered me so far, I could very well say that the rank system in this game specifically has the most merit so far. Rage quits are non-existent so far. Unbelievable. 


    For me personally, this will remain as the most preferable 2d fighter of 2021. I should really stay with my favorite fighting games of this generation, because some of my old favorites never resurfaced past the 1990s. I'll decide to not be my usual spread anymore, because sustaining an effort to keep up with most people from most fighting games, is no longer an appealing prerogative anymore.


    It's fortunate that Arika is what it is today. Migrated Ex Capcom employees that worked on Street Fighter 2 was the best thing that happened for us. My preference was always Street Fighter 2 Hyper Fighting, because it just felt more complete and more prominent in mechanics, in contrast to the others past this iteration. However, if there was ever a successor to the earlier Street Fighter 2 games, where it was more balance in defense, offense, mind games, and positioning, Arika's fighters in total would be it for me.


    Despite the introduction to supers, fighting games that have them, can be fun too. I know that I'm old fashioned. LOL!

    Taste just like shrimp without having to cook them alive. Eating insect protein is the future, so try them! 🐛🐜🐝🪲🐞🦗🪳🕷️🦂🦟🪰

     

     

     

    I will try anything once, of course. I hardly eat meat, at all. How sweet of you to expand my protein options.

     

    I think someday, I'll return to being vegan.

    Man, tell me about it. I've had the good fortune of getting some longer +R sets in recently (an hour or so) and by the end of them my brain is always kind of melted. Especially if it was playing the same person in a really long set. Super fun but I definitely don't have the mental fortitude I used to (though I think that is something you can sort of train back up).

     

    Actually talking about SFV: in ye olde SRK days Akhos would usually be down for like 2-3 hour sessions. I was absolutely flattened by the end of those especially after dealing with his Ed/Ken/Cody pressure. Meanwhile he being in his 20s he would always lament when my old ass would tap out. 😆

    Oh. My. Goodness. 50 up to 100 matches were vital in my development in the days of old, but I can no where near endure such this stretch such a thing anymore. I can only recall the prominent players of the FGC that I versus with, but many others have played a critical role in order for me to forward exponentially 

     

    Today, these youngsters are something else. In Fighting Ex Layer Another Dash, for example, after being slain without taking any wins from playing the first time, from original FEXL players, I'm slowly re-obtaining what I've lost as an original SFEX player that has been inactive in this series for 20 years. The community today have been so welcoming and supportive of me so far, where they wouldn't manipulate you as a stepping stone, and discard you should they have their feel of victory. I've had to deal with that in the old school era.

     

    With the experience that I've gained so far, I've put up a more valiant effort each time, regardless of the session conclusion against more veteran FEXL players, which one of them used Allen. We've traded wins/losses, which I, just barely won the session. Allen in this game is considered at the top of the tier chart. While I don't put much stock on these matters, after holding my own against such a compliment player at a dramatically short amount of time, I still got it. ^_^

  8. I'll be migrating to more new generation consoles and fighting games this month, in order to have more people for quality entertainment and elevation. I've been having fun so far. However, I've noticed the difference in the long haul of session consistency from the much older version of me currently, than a greater form of my youth. As grueling it was to the bitter end, I appreciate it. It's nice that I can still sustain an effort like that.

    This is my first time actually playing vf against anyone other than my brother so it's been a learning experience. 

     

    Went with taka since I never got to play him since all I had was vanilla vf5.  

     

    Read a basic guide and jumped straight online started actually winning ranked up a couple times. Regardless of tier lists I don't think I have what it takes to get too much farther with him.  

     

    Ryu..erm I mean Akira and all the other smaller characters seem to give me such a hard time with him. 

     

    But it's mainly I have a tough time converting into big damage with him which is his whole thing. So it's probably just me.

    You won't know, until you try. I guess I had the luxury of versing a fair amount of prominent players in the distant past for years from this genre and was just patient in making the losses become less. However, I'm far more relaxed now, having no regard of the outcome, but cherish the moment and progressing therein. The competition in this genre in more recent times is as formidable and ruthless as the days of old. I'm interested in this generation of both old and especially the young lot, since the announcement of this series has resurrected. I'm revisiting the on-going fighting games of today. The irony of it all and the reminisce return of seeing where the chips fall.

     

    I wish you the best on your journey.

    I've never used Emo Karate Man in VF before. I hate the way he looks but I like the way he plays.

    He's a nice start, but me in particular, I value everyone in this series through the inconceivable nostalgia. 

     

    It's all preference at the end, so a main to me was no longer needed, which has been that way for quite sometime. I believe eventually oneself, should they obtain strong fundamentals, then they can learn the rest of what every character has to offer. You become your own main basically. That's the anecdotal evidence of which I've discovered for myself and only for myself.

     

    It preserves that genre for me, which keeps me from discontinuing it again. I couldn't be more satisfied.

    For whoever is wondering how to do the last evasion tutorial. I don't even understand the utility of it 🤷‍♂️

    Sega always strived to make this system more built on an extension of logical situations. It's all about more options on protecting yourself, after an evade particularly, given the recovery time of it, which can leave room for planning through future intuition on your next strategy.

  12. I think no matter how much I've belittled and revenge antagonized old SRK members in the distant past, even I would have to swallow my protective arrogant pride against them by thanking their sort, because they've served their purpose for me in meeting my satisfaction in versatility from many fighting games. So, I do acknowledge that this community, Pre SRK arcades, and tournaments had forged my talents, despite how dreadfully unpleasant the journey was.

     

    It's a mystery why I keep coming back here.

  13. I was encouraged to grow VF gatherings in my local area of tournaments, as timid as I foresee the effort. The sweet lot of VFDC members are as mature as ever, especially containing the more older crowd. Since, I haven't been to tournaments in almost 20 years, I'm curious of how it is today and the infinite prowess of it all in each individual's specialization of games.
