What I kind of find amusing as well is that I don’t play Tekken or any other fighting games, but just from years of gaming, I perfectly understood exactly what that player was generally saying. It made sense to me. It’s nice that gaming culture gives you a kind of general fluency with franchises/genres you don’t…
