Yeah, all the class/arts/fusion stuff has lost me. I really don’t like complicated RPG’s I like it when they’re simple. This is far too much for me too understand

I think LK learned to play Golddick a bit just to figure out how to fight against him. Golddick is oppressive for everybody, but obviously on light characters he’s nightmare shit. If anything I think he’ll start playing Testament. I need to start learning a new character. I haven’t played the game at all in nearly 2 months. Once I clear my current backlog I’ll start playing Baiken or Ram, I think

Wawa won DBFZ Evo in both an impressive but also scrappy display. First he got pushed down to losers so had to work all the way through that and then got to final where he has to win 6 games. Starts by going down 2, wins the next 3 to reset the bracket and then I think he won 3-1 or something. Ridiculously tense and was so much fun to watch. However I think by the time they got to the finals it was 2am, he fought all the way through losers and I think the nerves got to both him and Nitro (The other guy in the finals) and both of them were dropping easy (easy for them) combos and all sorts. It got really scrappy. But he still did it. I think that means Wawa has won every major tournament at DBFZ this year.

LK couldn’t get in to top 96 by the sounds of it and he says he is quitting Millia lol He has a string of tweets talking about how the big struggle is pressure which I totally agree with. The best pressure in this game is strike/throw and high/low and Millia just not got it. Hopefully he picks up Baiken so I can learn some shit lol

Holy shit that’s amazing 🙂 Next gen versions? They’re never going to make a sequel 😕 EDIT: Oh wait I just saw a longer video that says there will be no more balance patches or characters, they think it’s as good as it can be. I guess that means the only way forward is a sequel!😁

That’s Wolverine just being a punk. I like that Cap is a literal Super Soldier and one of the greatest fighters in the world. Just in these classic Avenger’s stories he doesn’t have much to do action wise and he is written like a stick in the mud, pedantic, whiny bitch. Which doesn’t follow why everyone takes orders from him. But I like Cap’s place in Marvel Comic, it just doesn’t work here. If he’s feet aren’t firmly on the ground he doesn’t have anything to do

I realised one of the big problems with the Avengers and it’s that all their powers are the same. They all fly around shooting lasers out of their hands. All the lasers have different names. Repulser Rays, Hex Magic, Zero Energy, Bio Bolts, Photon Blasts, whatever the fuck Wonder Man does. Which just means they fly around shooting different coloured lasers from their hands. I think it’s part of why none of them feel cool and so many of them feel unnecessary. Because there’s no clear understanding or explanation of what is actually different about them. As opposed to the X-Men who (despite having too many psychics/telepaths) have largely distinct power sets which provides them roles/reasons to be on a team and an understanding what is happening when they use their powers. Even Justice League is better because they’re all the best at something. One of the only unique power sets on the team is Captain America who basically does nothing the whole comic because most of the threats are too big for him to punch. He just orders everyone around all the time and people call him “The greatest warrior” multiple times in comic but you never see it until right at the end. The absolute, biggest positive about this comic is Kang. He’s actually a really cool character. He comes off as a sincere threat, they address his power over time, how he uses it, his attitude to conquering, and it’s all pretty consistent with the other Kang story I’ve read Avengers Forever. He’s very cool. I would like to see a story where Kang fights Ultron

Finally finished Avenger’s Kang Dynasty and oof that’s a boring comic. It did pick up slightly in the second half for a bit, then descended in to explosive nonsense for the final 2 issues. The bit that is good (“good” in this case meaning not entirely boring) I spoiler below in case it’s used in a movie in 2 years time Apart from that though most of this comic is a snooze fest and hard to recommend for any reason Literally putting me to sleep by the end. I’ll be surprised if I remember much of this story in a week’s time 😴

Just met Möbius and did that whole cutscene and stuff. Wow that has got me so in to this game. Loved it. Exactly what this game needed. The music in this game is also amazing. Very, very nice. I was enjoying this game already but that bit just turned it up a huge amount. Hope the new mechanics and stuff don’t bring it back down This is a wonderful morning game. I don’t know if others are like me where some games suit different times of day but this is a great morning game.

ComicPop did Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow on back issues this week which got me reading through it again. It’s so good. Every issue either has a perfect “Super” moment or something completely not “Super” which fits Kara so well and are moments that could never be done with Clark. The simple bit of the story is Supergirl and a young girl called Ruthye are chasing after a psycho barbarian across space. Here are three of my favourite moments. A Simple, Perfect Truth Her Power was not of Action but of Restraint Thank You, Neighbour

More Millia buffs in the winter 🤗

@mfnick Sifu does look cool. I will get that at some point. Katana Zero has amazingly cool style and visuals. But I was bad at that game. It was like the Mr Bean version of Live, Die, Repeat. I was very uncool at it @one-armed dwarf Dishonoured and games like that are not a bad shout, actually, I’ve been meaning to give the 2nd one a go on PC. Maybe I download that off Gamepass. @OCH I had to Google it. It doesn’t look bad but not the kind of cool I mean

Today I’m just in the mood to play a cool video game. Like a game that is just cool. Do they make those anymore? The only things I can think of are Uncharted 3 (Which I don’t like, but not played in years maybe I like it now) and Destiny 2 (Which I’ve been loving lately but doesn’t really fit the bill) What is just like, a cool, single player action game. I can’t think of any.

https://www.shopto.net/en/swfi97-fire-emblem-warriors-three-hopes-p1164908/ HMMMMMM I know £35 doesn’t sound like a deal but it’s a new Nintendo game and most other places have it at £45 so it’s quite a good deal all in all. Very tempted. They also have the special edition for £90 which less tempted. I’ve seen that sell for £140 but confused why it’s still available at some places for RRP. So less tempted But £35 for the standard one HMMMMMM let me think

I sat down and watched the full 10 minute presentation this morning. Wow. If they get this right it’s hard to see where Pokemon goes from here. Not saying they couldn’t add to these ideas, or maybe once I play these games it will give me new ideas and things I want to see. But looking at what they’re showing, they’re kind of just doing everything. If they get this right it’s hard to imagine what else they could do, maybe this will be the Pokemon game. The crystal Pokemon thing is dumb but it’s been 10 years and now 4 games of battle gimmicks so I’ve just come to except it, and it’s not as dumb as Gigantamax from S&S, so kind of an improvement. But yeah. If it gets it all right (Which it very well might not do) but it could be ultimate Pokemon, right? Like what else is there to do after this I see what you did there

I’m mixed about this. On the one hand I’d rather there not be a Batgirl movie at all than one that is complete shit (Which going by what I’ve heard today is exactly what this was), and this looked worrisome from that first image where her costume is a shiny jacket. But at the same time I would have still like to have seen a Batgirl movie. Batgirl is 1 of about 4 Batman characters I actually like so hopefully it doesn’t mean the idea is done forever.

They did away with that shit years ago. XY maybe, definitely by SUMO. But what they’re enabling here is a new thing altogether. These Pokemon aren’t cutting down trees they’re doing BotW shit. Looks like they’re doing it a lot more cleanly than Arceus back in January as well. Damn, man, the more it goes on the more I’m convinced Arceus was a fucking prototype or some shit where they said “We ain’t wasting money, make it in to a game” but it was all mechanical experiments for this game. I know the release dates are too close for that to be true but there has to be a reason why you had a game with great, new, fresh, long dreamed, reinvented fundamentals but felt so incomplete and then 12 months later here’s a game that’s taking all that shit and - from the looks - putting a real Pokemon game on top of it.

The legendary motorbikes are too on the nose. I wish they were more clever about that. But everything else looks fucking sick. I don’t think there’s a thing in the trailer I didn’t like. Also Hydreigon back, baby, one of my favourite Pokémon

It looks really bad when blown up like that. The textures and colour are really yuck. It doesn’t look that bad in handheld (Not that it looks completely different, but it does mitigate the grunge a fair bit) Although that basic environment layout looks like a PS2 game no matter how small the screen I was really enjoying playing it on the OLED with headphones. Nice and relaxed. Hope all the extra party members and everything don’t rock that boat too much. Both in terms of too much for the screen and overloading with mechanics. I was having a nice, chill time with it on Sunday

Is the other guy not blocking? You make it look so easy. It looks like you have so much time in between your hits. The way you make it look doesn’t match up to what it feels like to play at all. Also I see you horizontal jump to get yourself extra charge time. Not sure where you’re getting those fireballs from though

I think this is a great way to go with it. Absolutely make the ground floor easier for newer players at the trade off as you will be playing the game simpler from every aspect, and keep the high ceiling for the people that really want to master and milk the character for everything they can do. But enable things like simple BnB’s doable for players that aren’t that and don’t want to spend 5 hours at a time to sometimes get a combo right. These games are too demanding when there’s definitely a way to relax the entry barrier without giving up the depth

Yes Why? What’s the difference between a charge move and anything else. Chun-Li’s fireball is a rip off in comparison to regular fireballs. Unless charge moves are super high damage then I don’t see what the difference is For the record I don’t want charge to go away because it is satisfying when you nail it. But I dunno. Reduce the time, or reduce the time if the move is proceeded by a combo or something, or reduce damage for a simple SBK but making the game more flexible can’t be a bad thing

Setting the dummy up to block after first hit is what I did right away so I know if the combo is working or not. But I dunno, it’s tough. Also I think simple controls could still help. Like if simple controls means Chun-Li doesn’t have to charge or charge for as long then boom much easier. If that’s how that’ll work I dunno but linking special combo enders would be much easier if it’s just a quick tap down and up on the stick then having to hold down inbetween ducking and standing

I don’t know the deal on the voice actress but I agree it’s not great. She doesn’t sound terrible or anything, but not a lot of personality there Aside from that though this little demo has actually increased my want to play this game. This looks fun. Obviously this is right at the beginning so I understand why the combat looks very basic, but I can see how that would develop Looks significantly different from Arkham combat as well. There’s no counter button (by the looks) and the combos look basic but more traditional hack and slash style. Although I hope when more skills/moves unlock it has that same free flow as the Arkham games have. But I like the look, I like the vibe. I love video game Gotham’s. They’re just fun places to be. I thought the last video with Red Hood teleporting everywhere made the game look dumb but seeing an opening mission, the way it progresses, and things. I like this, it looks good
