    Street Fighter 6 Lounge: The FGC has a crack problem.

    That said though Raw DI is reactable in and of itself, but the truth of "reactions" in fighting games is a big giant mess for the most part.

    I'm thinking among the mess of reactions is the whole mental stack game and the variety of characters as well as player patterns... Any other considerations or factors?

    Honestly just happy its still so good considering I turn 40 in a few months

    That's what's up. I'll be 40 in less than a month, on Bison's birthday, nonetheless! Here's to solid reactions for the decades to come!

    Linking stuff

    So I watched AutoMattock on reacting to DI, which sparked a thought... Am I gonna be ready for it during week one or am I gonna have to work on my reactions a bit more? According to him, DI from at least Ryu is 26 frames. I went to Human Benchmark to check my raw reaction speed: it's 271 ms. Divide that by 16.67 ms and I'm sitting at about 16 frames. My fastest time which seemed like a fluke was half of that at 8 frames. During the betas I wasn't so ready because I needed to train my reactions and have more consideration towards the mental stack of new mechanics in general. Maybe I'll have it down in the next beta? So, how's your raw reaction speed...?

    I remember hearing about the basis of dictator's name being Vega related to astronomy... But if I didn't know that, I'd have way too many questions. Like why does this guy even have a Hispanic name and he doesn't seem Hispanic like at all?? I told my wife who doesn't follow SF at all about how dictator is called Vega in Japan and she said it doesn't make sense. Claw dude is Vega to her. M. Vega just doesn't hit that spot like M. Bison does. Bison sounds like the name of someone who rules with an edge of ruthlessness.

    I kinda like that the character fonts are specific to the promotional media. If the individualized fonts were on the character select screen, I would've felt like it's trying hard to bite of GGXX. I guess I'm also a sucker for nostalgia cuz  the 8 World Warriors in their SF2 CS screen configuration does plenty for me. As a kid, I learned who the 8 were according to their position and their character themes. Maybe it's not the best designed CA screen ever but it's plucking the 90s heart strings in a way no modern SF game has.

    My iPhone’s notepad is very unfriendly…

    Interesting that Nakayama-san’s asking about Boxer. After all, Nash got his standardization and… Why exactly would he ask without purpose, unless maybe he’s gonna make it into the game as well? I say Balrog. I get the whole Mike Bison angle, but honestly, he stopped looking like Tyson shortly once SSF2 got released. Feels like his own man nowadays. 
     

    Pivoting just a bit,  I’m glad to see most of the (S)SF2 characters in the starting roster, but I will admit… Even though the game thankfully takes place after SF3, it doesn’t feel like it does. Maybe it’s the lack of SF3 characters? Whatever it is, I can’t quite put my finger on it.

     

     Anyone you guys wanna see on the roster? Here are a few requests that would work for me. A lot of em we haven’t seen in a while:

     

    SF2 - Fei Long, Balrog, Vega, Sagat, Bison

     

    SFA - Birdie, Sodom, Rose, Dan, Sakura, Cody

     

    SF3 - Sean, Necro, Hugo, Remy, Q

     

    SF4 - Rufus, Abel, C. Viper, Seth, Gouken, Decapre, Poison

     

    SF5 - Laura, Menat, G

    So I've played Power Rangers Legacy Wars and KOFAS and I spent MUHNAY playing those games. Does SFD feel similar? For sure - if I obsess over getting OP characters and spend rent money tryna get em then the developers have done their job. 

     

    But @-PVL93-you're right... It's either I get to big boss CPU Seth for free, or die tryin lol. PR Legacy Wars should've had a campaign mode... For KOFAS, sure they have the campaign but since they're by KOF year, it's similar to how the actual games' stories are but I lost interest in that too. Maybe SFD can hold me over before SF6 drops? 

     

    In addition, I decided I wouldn't mess with SF5 at all till after the SF6 launch. Also been playing the Mega Man X Collection, and USF4.
