this is rad

regular DLC drops every 3-4 months and a lack of a “real” marvel game competitor will probably keep the momentum going for the first year, at least

glad to see nobodies still trying to grip onto the last vestiges of thinly veiled homophobia disguised as lazy subcultural critique

skeezeballs desperate to have any leverage of power over women

Removing self-damage on his grenades was a real [???] balance choice, on top of already having him be invulnerable to his det-jump. You think about a class like Demoman in TF2 who could put out utterly massive damage, but was very slow and choosing to det-jump with his sticky bombs was taking a huge health risk.

Doom 2016 was a lot more confident in its combat design and knowing how to thread the needle between challenge and power fantasy.

It’s probably the closest thing to embodying the idea of “punk” media, in choosing to reject conventions that were starting to become standard in games design. The only thing that holds it back is that there’s *some* traditional structure in the stage progression, character leveling, and plot beats. But it still has a…

worth mentioning is that amazon got rid of the double-paywall for anime a few months ago, so you can (and should) view this series if you have a prime account

the coins (and the Super Sword they unlock) in particular bother me way more than they should

the fact that this thumbnail is using the “stereotypical offended feminist” pic is probably an indication that they’re a bad faith actor from the start and real, real desperate to validate their usage of a racist icon

remember kids, if ever you get in trouble for bad behavior, just escalate that bad behavior for 2 years straight and you’ll be rewarded with fame and fortune

I don’t necessarily believe there’s that much overlap between the people spamming whatever in Twitch chat and donations. Last year they had a semi-reasonable Twitch bits goal to reach for a donation incentive, and they barely got halfway through the total.

I think it’s the sleeper hit of last year, and played a ton of ranked mode, but you do start hitting a point of diminishing returns far faster than most other conventional fighting games.

The tier lists for Dragonball FighterZ will be a real hoot. Can you imagine if the top tiers were characters like Yamcha or Krillin, and the low tiers were SSB Goku or Beerus?

This and the recent story of a Guilty Gear pro taking on his daughter’s boyfriend reaffirms my believe that everyone in Japan is secretly a fighting game pro.

I kept reading it as “Clam Digger” and the rules make just about as much sense.
