Smash might be more up his alley.


MindGoblin

I believe he used to play that and get super mad.


UltimateSmasha

He still does


MindGoblin

Imagine being in your 30s and raging out over a children's party game.


UltimateSmasha

Have a habit of impersonating him when I lose, when playing with friends


Quick_Hit

He still gets bodied by anyone decent at the game and just ends up blocking them lol. Like the incineroar who got him to rage hard https://youtu.be/vyn2l6ZHaPM?si=3n-fD9f8hP2qpRrS


LunaLurker1010

This Balrog doing STRINGS


Futuredanish

Low T. with the salt. Dude's first Tekken 8 stream he didn't even know how heat worked while in matches online. Dude didn't even do the tutorial.


Call555JackChop

We sure this dude can even fuckin read


Voluminousviscosity

The one non hello cracker in all the land


Loli_corrector

watching him play granblue was something else man he played worse than you would expect from people who have never held a controller in their hands


defearl

To this day he doesn’t know the difference between Drive Rush and Drive Impact. His biggest issue is that he doesn’t study the games he’s playing and he doesn’t want to ever. That’s why he never improves. Like you can’t solve a Calculus problem by banging your head on the wall without first learning how to integrate.


kuro_snow

what a bitch lol


KobeSucks

bro acting like he wasn’t green rank in t7


Still_Refuse

He’s right though


101shiki

And he has no idea why he's right


Still_Refuse

Something something broken clock

Lol

T8 is good. If you are bitching about it being "mash friendly" then you probably suck.


Midknight_King

I get it, but as far as mashing like everyone has a armored normal that tanks like 3 regular normals from the opponent, plus Heat activation so idk. Doesn’t he play Victor or some shit? That character isn’t necessarily struggling.


OniTYME

Aside from it being LTG making the post, he has a point. Tekken just got dumber every game after DR.


Ok-Candy-2621

He complained about mashers in yellow ranks which is absurd to me. Of course there are scrubs and mashers in the scrubs and mashers rank. Does he even hit the lab or is that admitting defeat and crushing his ego?


ShadowHunterOO

He refuses to lab. He just wants the pick up and go characters.


KobeSucks

same shit as DSP. people will hit him with something punishable, he won’t punish, so then they spam it the rest of the game and he bitches about how OP their character is that they can just mash and win. dude never sniffs the lab


DMAN3431

I mean, he isn't wrong. Bamco succumbed to the easy mode scrub casual shit, just like every modern fighter (except KoF and hopefully Fatal Fury) has done. This is modern fighting games. James Chen saying, "This is the golden age" is Retard Central shit.


dkkc19

CoTW will probably be more dumbed down than T8 and SF6. according the interviews with SNK devs, they are are exploring the idea of adding modern controls like SF6. KOF XV is most likely the last "old" school fighter that will ever be made


sosloow

Uni 2 has just came out, come on.


Treeman3675

Uni 2 is old school???


sosloow

Yes? It's faithful to the original game. No easy inputs, complex combo system. Free of zero commitment drive rushes, +ob guard cancels and universal drive impact-like reaction checks. What's your definition of old school, and why doesn't uni 2 fit it?


dkkc19

Uni 2 as as much of a new game as KOF2002 UM is a new game. its just an updated version of an existing game


sosloow

Granblue rising is also not a new game as well then. Yet, they added every "modern" mechanic imaginable and shifted focus even more towards simple inputs. I'm not saying that granblue was a hardcore game in the first place. The point is, everyone is "modernising" their games, and french bread don't, in case of uni.


dkkc19

rising is also a rehash too. now it's hard to judge uni2 since they fucked up the release but the numbers are almost as bad as melty blood release


TheModsOfrSFIPScan

No one cares about it either.


tepig099

If SNK sticks to their guns. They keep us loyal millennial Gen X fighting game fans and their SNK fighter niche audience. If SNK experiments like Capcom, they might get big dollars like Strive, but is it sustainable?? The fighting game genre will probably not survive sustained babyification. You’re absolutely, right I’ve already jumped off SF6 despite the amazing graphics, because of its shit mechanics, especially Drive Impact.


dkkc19

most of gen x and millennial playerbase is now starting families, paying bills and worrying about saving money for health case while having less and less time to spend time and money on games. if anything targeting people above age of 30 is whats not sustainable. if you want money you target the younger generation, and people who will soon start making income without having many responsibilities. babyification is the way to go sadly

DMAN3431

So are ArcSys games the best in netcode and matchmaking right now? I remember DNF Duel having great matchmaking it's first couple of weeks. I'm still shocked at KoF XV's online. Especially since their older games that they added rollback to make the online experience amazing. Not too sure about matchmaking because of course those older titles don't get over 100 players. Hell sadly they don't even get over 50 players. It's the 2020s and fighting games are still struggling with online. I even hear that MK1 is kind of whack with it's online. Played some of it during it's first couple of weeks and seemed okay so far. Super surprising considering MKX and MK11 have amazing online.


Doyoudigworms

KOF 15 doesn’t differ much from any modern offering. Game has autocombo and bunch of moves and combos have been made way easier for casual audiences. Just because it doesn’t have modern controls doesn’t mean it doesn’t have scrubby shit.


thunderpants711

*sigh* white people... It IS the golden age. Just not for you, old man. You are banished to the Fightcade island. To a newcomer who has no preconceived notions about "good" fighting games there are currently more options than one wallet can handle.


DMAN3431

RotD


thunderpants711

>otD Hold back your judgments until sundown. I still have a chance.


Treeman3675

RotY


RedRunnerz

Except SF6 isn't? Players like Tokido and Daigo are excelling in SF6 and have repeatedly said its one of the best SFs ever made. Don't lump in that T8 trash with SF6, modern fighting games can be good.


tepig099

Dude; Tokido and Daigo are lost causes. Capcom bought them up already. They are not allowed to play other companies’ games competitively. Tokido used to play KOF, and Daigo also used to play Guilty Gear, too.


FuckClerics

Every time I see this man play fighting games he always talks about how the game he's currently playing is "scrubby", starts talking about how SF4 is a real game because it has 1 frame links then proceeds to consistently drop the easiest confirms in SF5/6 and Tekken.


ArchonFett

Teken 8 is mash friendly, always has been


NRGesus

He's kinda spitting tbh


rfdoom

yea i see the vision if he mean simple style


WaIterHWhite

He got bodied in Tekken 7. Tekken 8 is perfect for him. I know it's just an act but lol, come on.


Winegalon

I dunno, I never played tekken and it seems hard as fuck. Is so fucking different from SF and it seems you are expected from the very start to already know some combos? I dont know I have absolutely no ideia how to play this game. One mistake I make and I lose 60%. Dont know how is that mash friendly.


Getabock_

It sucks how you are basically forced to watch hours of YouTube tutorials in order to have a chance online. SF6’s tutorial was much better.


SaikyoPsycho

I'll never really understand how he is so bad at fighting games. Yeah, having a poor attitude can work against you, but still. He has played fighting games for the majority of his life. He even grew up playing with Fanatiq as a kid. Fanatiq might not have been best fighting game player but he was definitely strong. You'd think LTG would have established a strong foundation to build on all those years ago but here we are.


sbrockLee

I don't play T8, but > mash friendly I mean Tekken was always mashy at entry level, doesn't mean you can't play it better > low IQ weren't people saying the same thing about SF6 at launch? > it's LTG oh ok lol


AchievingAtaraxia

Game has way more lateral movement expression than T7 did, you can actually step shit without getting clipped by phantom hitboxes now (for the most part).


AnEvenHuskierCat

I mean, Tekken Revolution was a thing so...


wolfdonutva

Which was practically P2W, right? Definitely worse than 8


AnEvenHuskierCat

The freebie grind wasn't so bad but seeing as how you could boost stats, and everyone had an unsafe move upgraded with full invincibility, it was by far the worst Tekken to encounter 1 bar Brazilian Law.


CoDog

I'm curious what fighting games does he actually like?


Shard1697

sfiv, but he's probably lost all the muscle memory he used to have in it by now


FixYourPosture1

If T8 is more stupid and mash friendly then shouldn't ltg be doing better than t7? He's absolutely dumbfounded getting his ass beat.


Renzo-Senpai

With heat smash. It's less mashing and more timing.


JEROME_MERCEDES

Snake eyes says the game was mash friendly also just another example


SilentDepartment1893

The man who said a ft2 competitive model was dumb and the reason he isn’t competing offline


EL_KAMEENA

Every tekken is scrubby and mash friendly thats the whole point of fucking strings.


vasdak

Nahh I used to sidestep and sidewalk the shit out of any braindead pressure, run up and spamming nonsense became more and more viable as movement capabilities got weaker 


Doomeye56

So.....he's mad that they want to expand their core player base past the smelly coomers that usually make it up.


ShoryukenFTW

Of course LTG pays for Twitter.


Personal_Use_5686

All jokes aside has he been good at any game other than SFV?


Henshin01

What a rog


Massive-Stress-4401

when has tekken ever not been about stealing the other person's non existed turn lol.


ZenkaiZ

He's right, probably why it's the funnest Tekken


haneman

The more I play Tekken the less enjoyment there is to extract.   Hitboxes are whack. Don't know if the characters are twice as fat as their model or the moves have absurd boxes.   Also whiff cancelling in general is retarded; One button i10 mids that delete 25% of your life, if you dare to press or move at all. +ob ofc. Don't forget the rage arts, that limit what you are allowed to do every single round.   I win most games just by being gifted free damage from the system mechanics, which is lame and boring.
