Well yeah, obviously, but SamSho's whole thing is it's slower pace and big damage. This is a big push for a more aggressive game overall, since you're rewarded more for pressuring a guard and punished for turtling. I'm not saying it's bad or new, I'm saying that it's a pretty massive change in the overall way that game is played. it's interesting, just like how SFV added the v-shift, new goku adding a bunch of gimmicky stuff that some people are saying is game breaking, etc etc. Just seems like a lot of big changes have rolled out in the last month or so.

OPTIMUS124 Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 Watching that guard crush video gave me a taste of nostalgia. The theater I used to work at back home has a SamSho cabinet. I used to down slushies and play with one of my coworkers when the place was closed up and waiting for the manager to finish counting the registers at the end of the night.

BornWinner Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 Yeah, Max has said a bunch of times he ended up ignoring the SNK games in favor of Capcom. Really the only game he played that had SNK characters was both the CVS games. Darc_Requiem and Hawkingbird 2 Link to comment

Unless they made changes to the defensive mechanics, the pace and flow should be more or less the same, with the difference that now you have an active incentive to use the defensive tools you have on the game (both universal and character specific) We should see when we could play again, we had good matches, that or Monhun.

Not in any of the mainline 2d games that this is based on unless there's something I'm unaware of. The emphasis has always been on defensive play or at least making the opponent think twice before mashing something out, which they took to an extreme with this game and now it just looks like they're trying to account for their overcorrection in that area.

I haven't played SamSho in years so my recollection could be way off but remember shit like having my sword knocked away from over blocking stand shit. Not exactly a guard break but a punishment for over guarding. Link to comment

Not exactly a guard break but a punishment for over guarding. That's a deflect, it's more of a parry mechanic. If your opponent deflects a light or medium slash, you get stuck in a recoil stun, but if they deflect a heavy slash, it knocks your weapon out of your hand. Hecatom and RSG3 2 Link to comment

Darc_Requiem Posted March 13, 2021 Author Share Posted March 13, 2021 (edited) I'm not saying any of that didn't happen. I am saying Bethesda continually releases games, bug filled games, that get fixed by their fans. I got Skyrim for like $5 years ago. I literally spent more time tracking down fan fixes for the game than I did playing it. I mean they launched Fallout 76 with bugs that fans had already fixed in their previous release. I wish the justifiable vitriol that CD Projekt RED got would happened to Bethesda's after each continual bug riddled release they had. Bugthesda was a meme before there were memes.

Had nothing to do with how broke or not broke the game was. Obsidian needed help as they ether fired or chased away half their team, including their only UI artist. They didn't had the people to finish the project and ran to Beth to help. Not to mention Beth only gave Obsidian a year for development, and offered no additional personnel or resources. Beth needed Obsidian to stick to their schedule, as so that New Vegas don't overlap Skyrim's Release. The Whole Metacritic debacle is hilarious Edited March 13, 2021 by DarkSakul Link to comment

It's a shame... I kind of miss those days when Halo was relevant. At least for me, once I got more into Unreal Championship 2, and then the legendary Gears of War franchise...it was game over for Halo with me. I did go on to get parts 4 and 5, mainly because I still cared about what was going on in the story of that universe....but at this point it's quite a tough sell to get me interested in that again. With all the things that have been going on in the world of shooters since Halo, they're just kinda "old hat" at this point. I think they'd need to implement something major to truly catch people's attention again. *Reminiscing on The Elder Scrolls and some of my favorite moments again lately... I've been tempted to actually play that mess Skyrim again....though of course I'd have to keep saving every 1 or 2 minutes because y'know.... Bugthesda there. It's such a frustrating thing, man... if it weren't for it being made by that company...this would clearly be one of the top 5 greatest games of all time, imo....easily. It's the #1 example of a game I always wish was handled by a better developer....a company that actually makes sure the damn thing works properly before shipping it. JHDK 1 Link to comment
Hawkingbird Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 I'm enjoying Astrobot far more than I thought I would. As a platformer it's very basic but it's made me a believer of the duel sense features. Absolutely loving the love letter to playstation all over this game. Got me feeling nostalgic over having the PS2 network adapter, PSP camera, the move and memory cards as collectibles. The references to other games when you spot is always fun to watch.
