Dayaan Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 (edited) Uni has been kicking my ass. Now I know there are 2 types of college students. Those without money, and those with money but they're saving it so they don't actually have money. What can I complain about though? Life is hard, and that's how you know it's good. I just wish I had a decent way to play Street Fighter... My girlfriend is buying me this proprietary piece of tech soon for my drawing tablet, so I can get drawing again! Can't wait...

delete_me Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 Watched that NA Top 8 replay to see if I can steal some Rose stuff. Turns out even pros get hit by those dumb 50:50s with Trigger 1 I do online. No idea why Filipinoman uses Trigger II though. He got exactly one opportunity to properly do something with it for the entire of his tournament run and it was off an anti-air, so basically off a mistake his opponent made, not even a situation he enforced. Sometimes he just activates it in neutral to scare the opponent which is a complete waste of meter. It's such a bad Trigger and I'm baffled he doesn't see it. Flaquito got way more mileage out of Trigger 1 and even if he didn't get damage out of it he was still, for example, able to escape the corner with it. Reticently 1 Link to comment

NBD because no one was playing them anyway, but I always thought that the nerfs the Sony exclusive characters got was like the only big misstep of the 2013 patch. I don't know much about Cole specifically, but I remember it definitely moved the other characters from barely relevant to novelty characters only. Link to comment
Darc_Requiem Posted October 11, 2021 Share Posted October 11, 2021 Street Fighter X Tekken was just a comedy of errors. The gems, the on disc DLC, the box art showing a game mode that wasn't available on 360, the Capcom/Namco characters exclusive to PS3 despite not being Sony IP. I refused to buy it until I saw it for a deep discount on PC. Which still was a waste of money for me as I didn't like the game, Elena got moved to SFIV, and Elena wasn't SF3 Elena so it was fool's gold anyway. Bigtochiro and Volt 2 Link to comment

I can't tweet at work, because if I could I'd definitely bring that shit up. I'd literally say. "I'd expect this type of garbage take from someone that works at Kotaku." Sure Max nets a decent living off Twitch, but lets not pretend that all that money goes into his pocket. Uncle Sam and Cali is taking half that off top. He has employees that need to be paid and last I checked, business class internet aint cheap. Say what you will about Max, dude put in the work to get where he is.

I always thought Cole (Sony exclusive character from Infamous) was hella odd and never really gave him much attention back then. After playing around with him today, I actually found his toolset to be pretty cool. Unfortunately that character being a Sony exclusive means he would've never saw the light of day competitively no matter what. SFxT? Damn. I used to play Jin/Ibuki back in the day... I need to look into the move lists of that game, specifically the normals of the Tekken characters. Link to comment

People hate that other people have money, always have, always will. These leaks might cause a variety of things: -Fans might contribute less, now that they are aware of the amount of money streamers have made. -Drive more people to stream and make more competition against current streamers. -Justifying a career revolving around content creation; there was an article last year about what grade school kids want as a career. A significant percentage of them want to be content creators, streamers etc so this info might ramp up more interest. Edited October 12, 2021 by Jurassic KingTubb 1 Link to comment
