Fuck you thats why

I want to FUCK Jack-o!

Nigger, I just stopped playing KoF 2000 and XIV before that.

I'm trying to fix my PC
And I have no friends that want to play and I dont have the skill to even keep up with Sup Forums

It's almost 8 AM and I haven't slept, I'm not in the shape to play fighting games.

because capcom are jew cunts and want 40 dollars for another fucking old street fighter re-release

I'm so bad

I want to jack off to jack-o

honestly i feel like fighting games aren't doing so hot right now.
it might be best to pause on the genre for awhile.

Cuz I'm away on holiday, fucker.
Got a new fight stick waiting for me at home though - switching from pad.

no one to play with

Real? Dang, I'm hyped as fuck for DBFZ,

Rev 2 is pretty good and DBZF is looking good atleast.

You will never trade Jack-O candy for sex

I have jacked off to Jack-O many times!

I have to go to sleep.
Bedgirl better be next game.

Only plebs like Jack-O over A.B.A

>mfw jack-o barrier
>mfw jack-o minions interrupt my oki

Because it's 7:50 am and I have to get to work.

Yes

Because I don't like fighting games

>Perfect body.
>Bandages
We need her in Xrd already.

my brother

Too busy thinking about fucking Jack-O's ass

because they make me want to fucking die

I just fap to the characters, its the same experience as playing

Because it's 2 am on a monday and I have work at 7 and also because it's hard finding skullgirls matches

I kinda want to start learning Blazblue but the problem is that I've got lots of characters I like (Litchi, Mai, Nu-13, Lambda, Amane, Hazama, Jin, Izanami, Izayoi, Kokonoe, Noel) but none that I'm really in love with which makes me indecisive. So I can't be quite arsed to learn both a new fighting game and a new character.

Lack of skill.

For you ABA friends, I paid someone money to draw this.

I'll be posting it forever.

do you have it on ps4?

Also do challenge mode with every character, try out their combos, you'll definitely filter out who you like the feel of.

No, Capcom isn't doing so well right now. Everyone else is fine. For god sakes this is Street Fighter 3 all over again when people thought the fighting game genre died when it really, again, Capcom was the only one who was in a fucked position. Everyone back then was doing fine for the most part much like now.

Stop thinking Capcom's status=Fighting Game Genre's status.

What's Aria's fighting style in the next game gonna be?


Also I was literally just playing Tekken, and for the first time in a live match managed to max damage combo someone so I'm taking a break to live in the afterglow.

PS3.

God bless you sir.

fighting games are doing really fucking well right now actually, Tekken, GG, KoF, KI, NRS all released some of the best games in their series. Capcom is the only one fucking up

Sweetdreams fellow bedanon

I'd like Skullgirls a lot more if they didn't rely so heavily on references and "homages" for most of their shit and actually tried to do something unique. Mechanically it's a decent game at least.

damn, I own all my games mostly on pc but for some reason bought Centralfiction on ps4.

Never played Aba but I agree, we need her to balance out the UGU~ from the valentines, Baiken was a good first step

Fighting games are not comfy

I'm heading to bed and I felt like playing Dark Souls today instead.

I don't see Aria being playable unless it's just a pallete swap version of Jack O. Which might already have been taken place by that third personality that was revealed in Raven's arcade mode.

Hearing Aria as a playable character in a unique way different from Justice and Jack O just doesn't make any real sense to me.

artist and cost?
I'd like to commission some soldier of God and anime Ky

hopefully the next patch or update fixes some of his issues. I'd like to see the seals for instance last two hits.

There are some variants. The first version the arm looked super fucking long, but I love the way her hand is placed. Ah well.

...

she already was, remember justice?

i'm waiting for rev2 to go on sale for steam

>GGXrdR2 is good
>KoF XIV is good
>Tekken 7 is good
>Killer Instinct is good
>Injustice 2 is apparently good
>DBFZ looks like it'll be good
>BBCTB seems promising
The only ones lacking are Capcom, dude.

I definitely see that, it is a good hand placement though, would've had to pretty much redraw the whole thing to fix it though, or at least her top half

>Hearing Aria as a playable character in a unique way different from Justice and Jack O just doesn't make any real sense to me.
>from justice

No I don't remember obviously

Why isn't there a mod of her without the mask?

I'll admit I didn't read the post very clearly but still she's basically been two characters at this point, a third would be overkill

Yet no one is playing them and are dwarfed by the popularity of other games. Not to mention twitch personalities and communities are a huge part of a healthy game for allot of people these days and no one gives a fuck about fighters on twitch outside of tournaments. I mean shit Tekken is perma dead on twitch unless aris is streaming, even its Tekken world tour streams struggle to break 10k.

Not saying the games are bad btw just that most people don't care about them and it's hard to consistently find matches on them if you don't live in NA or Japan I guess.

If anyone's interested in Guilty Gear, this will help you get started:

BlazBlue has a balance patch and a new ($8) character releasing on the 31st.

There are a lot of moving pieces in fighting games right now, so always be on the look out for notifications and announcements even though these will probably slow down quite a bit until next month since the fighting game season has wrapped up in the US.

Issuesixie, not sure if he have an artist page or anything but you can find him in the /aco/ commission thread.

This one was cheap because it was a summer sale ,don't know about normal cost. Definitely using him again. Note that GG isn't his normal style.

Good taste with Ky, though. Ky and Dizzy are great.

Again, that's what I mean by my original post, but glad we're on the same page now.

I don't know about the other games but Xrd/Rev 2 and T7 are some of the highest selling in their series (not counting the Tekken 3 anomaly)

That's unironically a problem; there's just too much good shit right now and it reminds me of the crash.

It's hard enough to figure out what character I want to play, let along which two or so games I want to focus on.

As far as BBFZ goes, I'm holding my breath until we see some Piccolo and Krillen footage since everything I've seen so far looks way too simplistic and samey.

I dont like them

>tfw no fightan because playing the official mobage of the anime fgc

Masked girls are the best. Develop your tastes.

Because I'm too bad and scared to do anything but fail at the combo challenges for characters I think are neat.

Fighting games are booming dude, we're actually getting timely releases on PC and Console, there's balance patches, I mean what a time to be alive as a Fighting game fan.

If she took it off, would she die?

>that feel when the worst part of leaving for college in a few weeks is the knowledge that you'll have to find a new Guilty Gear local scene

time to get my fucking magnets because it's time for needles in a haystack

I'm convinced that the only reason Injustice2 isn't on Steam yet is because their microtransaction and gear bullshit would immediately be cracked and made irrelevant.

And fuck them for adding Raidden

I started the GG scene at my college. Just do that.

Capcom aside the genre is healthier than ever we're just seeing players spread out over different games now so there's no monolith of the community and instead we're getting tons of smaller but still active and thriving games

I live in Ocala. It is a small horse farming town. The nearest scene I have in any fighter is in Orlando an hour and a half away with about $10 of tolls between me and it.

You'll be going to a school with other neets of your age group so there's probably at least a small scene.
don't drink the campus coolaid though

yet Tekken 7 lost a huge chunk of its player-base on PC already. And I'm pretty sure it's still the most played fighter on PC and its struggling to break 4k players daily.

It's great the devs are making good shit I'm just saying it's serving the same fan base it has always served it doesn't seem to be growing at all I don't think people can be fucked learning fighters when they can just go play league or pubg with their friends and have fun.

Judging the PC community for a fighter is like judging the sales of CoD on the Wii

If there's a fighting game club at your school they'll almost definitely play gg and if they don't just start bringing your own system that's how we did it at mine we just started setting up multiple systems so people could experiment with different games and now we have a nice gg scene

pc fighting games always have been and always will be dead there's no point in judging their numbers there

Tekken 7 is the most shilled game but its the absolute worst game for new players to pick up. Worse than GG, worse than even SFV.

The most counter intuitive piece of shit ive ever played and this is coming from someone who has played fighters competitively for 10 years

Why is May so hot bros?

So is it worth picking up GG if I can only get it on PC?

Because I'm at fucking work.

How do I git gud with Jack-o?
I have a few combos down that I'm able to hit consistently but I'm unsure as to where to place the houses so the minions don't have a travel time of 5 years versus being destroyed the second they are placed

help

I-I pirated guilty gear because I don't have any money to spend on games.

I wan't to play online so fucking badly...

But why tho? People who buy it on PC play it then don't want to play it anymore and that means nothing?

That's because tekken is a shit series, the only reason it was even shilled so heavily is because people found it refreshing to have a dev who actively responded to issues and was actually trying to make a good game versus the shit that capcom's been pulling

>GGXrdR2 is barely different enough from rev 1. baiken and answer were underwhelming
>KoF XIV was decent a entry but the graphics and netcode made it a disaster
>Tekken 7 is less popular than expected and is lacking content
>Killer Instinct is dead
>Injustice 2 is dying even though starfire dlc
>BBCF is kusoge, plus jubei is already bottom tier

I don't even like street fighter but we all know the issues it has. mvci isn't looking so hot either.
that only leaves dbfz but it all comes down to roster size.

times are very very bad for fighting games.

The more the esports meme is pushed onto the FGC the more I feel its soul attempting to be sucked out. We saw this in a big way with that Capcom video that leaked a week ago or so not to mention the forced censorship at EVO.

The second you start throwing big money and corporate sponsors into things, the rules change and limiters start being put in place.

Eventually it just becomes a way for neets to collect a check while their autistic fanbase jerks off to them and it becomes less about a competitive community getting together to test its skills and find comradery in a shared interest.

The games are good now, but the corporate shilling is bound to kill it.

>People who buy it on PC play it then don't want to play it anymore and that means nothing?
It's a combination of lack of crossplay in an already small community and the general pc mindset of just buying games constantly, there are fucking tons of people on steam who have 200-300 game libraries when they only touch 2-3 games in them

>wants to play a fighting game online
>got said fighting game on PC

>In the early 90s, the fighting game genre was booming
>Lots of different companies were coming out with all sorts of great new fighters
>Capcom's response was to branch out from their mainstay of Street Fighter 2 and make new, innovative games like Darkstalkers and Children of the Atom
>In the late 2010s, the fighting game genre is booming again
>Lots of different companies are again coming out with all sorts of great new fighters
>Capcom's response is to now just drive their mainstays of Street Fighter and Marvel Vs Capcom into the ground

>esports meme is pushed onto the FGC
Literally the only one doing this is capcom, tekken, gg/bb/arcsys, kof and the rest are all still free from esports. Stop supporting capcom and it'll fix itself

Wait is the ps4 community larger?

Really I feel like esports keeps games alive. More money gets pumped into the game/community devs have to pay closer attention to balance and normies stay interested into the game and not just wander off to flavor of the month shit so easily cause they are invested in getting good and following a team.

She isn't.

>Tekken 7 is good

I know why I stopped playing it, that bullshit with the season pass and eliza.
that's probably part of it.

Keep in mind you can pick up and replace houses. Jack-O's a weird one, but she has some solid normals while using minions for crossups and mixups as ell as extensions. If you can't get setup or run away/ lock an opponent down until you do, you're fucked. Best I can say is to try and watch some high level play and see what they do:
youtube.com/watch?v=bIaSH3J15NU

Playstation doesn't release population numbers on any of its games I don't think.

"but bro, didnt you know that mid, low mid launcher string that is safe on block can actually be parried if you memorise this exact string and guess that he will finish it from this one particular attack on a character with 90 different strings :))"

Nah fuck that I aint learning this level of autistic shit for each character 30 times over in order to be "ok"at the game.

So why did you tell me I was a baka-ass motherfucker for playing it on ps4?

Please respond

Is melee allowed in this thread?
