    But it's Mortal Kombat. There are other games Cesar Romero Joker might fit into, but if it's this game, blood and gore is most of the entire point.

    I think it might be a fun contradiction to the rest of the game.

    Yeah um I don't know about that take since even MK doesn't take itself all the way serious.

    That said yeah I used to like Joker until he became the poster child for every wannabe edgelord.

    Naw I'm pretty eh about him.

    I also have extreme Joker fatigue and don't care about the character, but at least it looks like they had a lot of fun coming up with his moveset instead of just like, dropping Injustice Joker into MK.

    He's got a ton of of crazy weapons and gadgets and special moves. I'm not going to play him but I'll definitely watch people trying him out on twitch.

    I’m sick of the joker but I garauntee he sells the most single dlc purchases. People love him. This version also looks great, way better than the first shots we had of him. Also all the skins for the other characters look great

    Not gonna be watching any MK11 streams personally, but I'll concede they did seem to come up with some interesting moves for him from the trailer.

    If you're curious about my icon; it's an update of the early Lego Castle theme's "Black Falcons" faction.

    So tekken 7 came to Xbox gamepass. Gave it a try. Got stuck at the akuma v heiachi angry man fight, even on easy. The whole thing is just very much not my bag at all. I’m glad others like it tho

    It’s also tough to go back to other fighting games story modes after getting used to NR.

    Also it did not look good at all on my 4K tv

    I realise it’s not for me tho, I am extremely bad at fighting games so the depth and quality of its systems is wasted on me

    short of MVCI Space Stone, there's still very little in fighting games more enjoyable to me then watching a Vegito players absolutely OPPRESS PEOPLE. to hell with not getting hit. don't even block. if you block Vegito 5L the game is over and you lost

    Vegito main won Frosty Faustings with a pretty sick team, Cell and Gotenks

    ohhhhhhh so satisfying

    So, looking up Vegito DBFZ videos lead me to this video:
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qnbzIMi_QZM

    Which lead me to looking up songs in DBFZ that were ported over from an earlier Arc System Works Dragonball game, DBZ:EB for the 3DS. And holy shit, the soundtrack for that game is awesome. I mean, I shouldn't be surprised given who made it, but still check out this playlist. Here's some of my favorites (besides 'Urban Area' in that clip video above):

    I wonder what the S3 patch notes for DBFZ will be.

    I wasn't exactly enthused about the S2 patches. It felt like they took a game that was already pretty homogenous, nerfed down a lot of characters options, and made it even more homogenous.

    Then they released Kid Goku...

    Probably the best thing they could do is fix the whole snapback-fuzzy-setup situation that immediately makes all tall characters low tier.

    anyone have any tips on making SFV actually work on PC?

    every single match I have online, bar none, has serious stuttery lag. it looks like packets being dropped -- characters sort of juddering forward and skipping frames.

    i've done the usual static IP and opening ports stuff, but it doesn't seem to have made a difference. i have a new middle-upper level PC, so it's not the hardware that's the issue. i don't have this problem at all on PS4.

    anyone run into this issue?

    just sounds like typical low ranked CFN to me.. and its worse on PC because there's more variables against PC opponents

    there's a lot of CFN folklore that if you're on PS4 you should only match against PS4 (for good reason), so when you're on PC you're only getting matched low ranked PC CFN players on their lenovo laptops and 4g hotspots


    just use your blacklist vigorously and get through it. the higher rank you get, the better it gets.

    I also hope season 3 shakes stuff up a bit because I like that game a lot but feel no urge to play it more at all

    I feel like the myriad transformations Dragon Ball characters have shouldn't be treated as separate character choices, but as something like Street Fighter Alpha's -isms, or as different optional upgrades in a character cuztomization system like the Budokai games for PS2.

    imo it's less character transformations being full characters that's a problem so much as them all being goku that's a problem

    ultra instinct was not a surprise and made sense given it being recent and popular I just could have done without a lot less of the other ones

    UI is probably one I WOULD have picked for the roster

    i dont know if DBFZ Season 3 can or should "fix" anything

    if season 3 was just "we didn't do any balance but we put high quality rollback and a non-stupid online ranked system" then I would not only be happy but would pay for the update

    Finished my SFV Evo Japan run at 3-2, much better than I was expecting after the last two days worth of arcade warmups being my first time playing the game since June.

    Now, if only I hadn’t jogged a 5k last night, all this standing around might have been more comfortable.

    chikurin (LEROY) VS みきお (LEROY)
    Book (LEROY) VS Gen (LEROY)
    Noroma (LEROY) VS Masa (LEROY)
    Mikio (JULIA) VS Ulsan (KAZUMI)

    The only good thing about this is that I won 5 bucks off my friend cause he took the under on 3.5 Leroys in the top 8.

    In retrospect I should have set that line way higher, jesus christ what a character.
