misterBee Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 I took some time to try this game out. It looks like an anime game BUT IT IS ALL IN FACT A LIE. Some stuff I have found out: - There is no air dashing - There are no chain normals - I don't think there is any jump canceling - Everything seems unsafe on block - It is extremely grounded and footsie based - Everyone seems to have universal launch, universal crumple, and universal wall bounce - There are assists The way you play this game is like Soul Calibur. Attack, block, then counter-attack. Anyone who thinks this is an anime game is SORELY MISTAKEN! Quote Link to comment
GetTheTables Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 You're welcome. 😎 I remember seeing footage of this game awhile ago and being interested in it, and with the new version coming out I was reading that it actually plays a lot more like an old SamSho than the animu game it seems. Downloading now. Hopefully the online is decent. Looking forward to playing it! DoctaMario 1 Quote Link to comment
Disciple0fAnrky Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 I am mad at the fact that I looked this game up.... Have you ever played the older samurai shodown games @misterBee Quote Link to comment

Darc_Requiem Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 @Angel Last Blade > Samurai Showdown. I liked the Samurai Showdown series but something about the The Last Blade series just clicked with me. Quote Link to comment
GetTheTables Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 I fell off of SamSho after 3. I've played all of them a bit but most of that series to me is 1 and 2. Last Blade is awesome. Very different from SamSho and I think I'm with you in that I prefer Last Blade more. But hell I'll take either if SNK is looking to res something. Quote Link to comment
DoctaMario Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 I remember when KE was supposed to be the greatest fighting game ever (the week it came out 😂) It's one of those games people always told me to try out though since I'm a SamSho player and I forgot about it. If it's out on Switch, maybe I'll grab it at some point. RE SamSho vs Last Blade, I always wanted to like the last blade games more but they aren't that deep. Theyre more fun when you don't really know how to play them, once you really learn more about them they're kind of meh. The parry system is cool I guess, and the grooves are nice but there isn't a single samsho game that isn't a better game than either LB imo. Quote Link to comment

But then they'd play it for a month then go back to playing SFV or Tekken. It happened with FEXL, Kohime Enbu, and a list of others I can't remember. Quote Link to comment

I have a gigantic menu of FGs on PS4 for exactly this reason. Nothing was better for the sales of the FotM FG than SFV's ongoing mediocrity. And the graphics for this game are indeed whack.

I tend to only buy FGs I know I'm going to play and really dig into so I don't play many outside of SamSho and MK these days. With that said, if I were playing my PS4 much I'd probably pick up Tekken 7 because while I've tried to get into Tekken several times over the past 10 or so years, every time I see a T7 tourney it looks hype as fuck. I checked out a video of KE and I don't think the graphics are wack. They look kind of like UNIST to me ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Edited October 16, 2020 by DoctaMario Quote Link to comment

And yeah I learned really quickly to stop buying so much random shit I thought looked neat. Though at the same time I mostly enjoy the community aspect so I'm happy enough to grab games knowing that I'll play them periodically with folks. DoctaMario 1 Quote Link to comment

I would say I spend more time playing on Fightcade than anywhere else these days if I'm playing FGs at all. It's easier to find random games on there which is usually what I go for.

Yeah I should get FC set up at some point. @Dayaan put together a "FC set up for dummies" package on SRK that I grabbed before everything went to shit. Thanks, hoarding instincts.

KingTubb Posted October 16, 2020 Share Posted October 16, 2020 Kinda weird that this thread is getting bumped, but right on lol. A dude that's a regular at my locals is a top player in this game I think. Dude is a total nut, hell of a player Quote Link to comment

Supposedly following all that will get FC2 set up with 3rd Strike but for all I know @Dayaancould have filled it with malware that floods my desktop with pictures of dicks (jokes on him though, can't fit any more dicks on there).

Latest release of FC2 comes with a proper installer and everything. There shouldn't be anything you need to set up aside from getting the actual ROM files. PM me for help with that.
