Call me crazy, but it sounds to me like they are going 3D, or at least in that general direction.

TBA 2020.

Chev is fighting recoil on the frontpage right now and it looks stunning. Impossible not to grab your attention. I’ve watched many games streamed through that little window on the frontpage, and most of them, even the greatest games—and perhaps especially them—are easy to ignore. Even something fast-paced like an FPS seems tame compared to this. It is big and loud and fast and gorgeous and I can see why it has such a big viewing following. Precisely because it’s such a low-immersion genre, it is fun to watch. Try watching a 4X or a survival-builder and you’ll see the difference. Further down this road you have reality shows following people around 24/7, and no one with a brain can watch them. Sure it’s more immersive, but only for the people playing them. For the viewers it’s intolerable.

This is the perfect game to stream on the frontpage.

It's not like fighting games have been more complex over the years so what the hell are you trying to feel proud of anyway. Have you SEEN Guilty Gear Strive? The most braindead Guilty Gear to come out in years. A guy who wanted to learn Strive told me the reason he did was because "Street Fighter V was too hard!", yet people act like Guilty Gear Strive is some huge obstacle when it takes the most basic concepts of a fighting game, adds abusive functions of mechanics that made the series easier even in Xrd, has people spamming 2 moves for the most part and doesn't even allow you to improvise. The variety is extremely lacking too and the "depth" is just a bunch of features the existed in Xrd, but have been adjusted.

So why the hell are people shaming some guy over these dumb games?


The thread this was posted in was about Exiled’s Steam thread on my Metagame essay. You can click through to read the rest of the thread but there’s nothing interesting or even just funny there.

Found this rare pic of recoil playing May lol:

Reminds me of that quote from a famous martial artist. I think it went something like this: "I fear not the man who knows 10,000 different moves, but I fear the man who can spam one move 10,000 times."
