My RX 6850 decided to die on me, just when I finally had the motivation to continue BG3 and/or The Outer Worlds. So I’ve been playing mostly Vampire Survivors on the Deck. Had some catching up to do on the new content anyway.

Street Fighter feels better as a competitive game and Mortal Kombat has always felt more button-mashy and arcade like.

I never really liked Mortal Kombat’s game play over Street Fighter because of this. I’ve continued with Street Fighter to modern times, but having not really cared for it back with the original trilogy, I haven’t touched modern MK games much.

I do however like the lore and story for the MK games way more than SF. I watch all the movies and anime and stuff; those are way more fun for me than the games lol

If I’d have to pick between the two it’d be mk, specifically mkx as it’s the only one i’ve really enjoyed.

That said, my go to fighting game is DOA5.

SF somehow feels more fluid? intuitive? to play than MK.

But neither allows the balls to the walls insane shit Mugen lets you to conjure! Or well, IKEMEN nowadays.

Tekken all the way!!!

Bbbbbbbbbbb,

Imagine releasing a game with sub 30 characters. Not Tekken

Mostly because it has the best character: a wholesome pro wrestler who helps kids and orphanages. Also only speaks in jaguar and always has his jaguar mask on.

DrMcRobot,

I think fighting games are like religion - the one you’re raised with just makes sense, and all the others just seem like: “why would anyone spend their time with that!?”

I love Tekken. Played 1 a bit. Played 2 a lot. Played 3 a bit. Played Tag and 4 a huge amount at work. Played 5 a bit. 6 not so much. 7 lightly. And now I’m mainlining 8 and absolutely loving it. So I have to concede - after a lifetime sinking time into Tekken of one form or another, you can’t really take my views on it as anything other than completely biased.

But I love it. Every time I’ve tried to play another beat-em-up like SF or MK I’ve just ended up confused. I know, intellectually, that these are good games. But I just don’t understand the… texture of them. SF feels floaty, stuff happens but I don’t really understand what I’m doing or how it affects what I’m seeing on screen. MK feels oddly stilted, the way the characters move feels artificial, slow.

Only Tekken feels… real. Just the right amount of nimble. When I get hit, I know why I got hit. I can predict shit, and feel good when I block a load of stuff. I feel like only with Tekken can I worry less about the controller and more about the strategy, and the mind games.

King of Iron Fist all the way.

They each have their charms.

IMO, Street Fighter has a lower skill floor and is easier to get into, and MK has a higher skill ceiling so its more rewarding and fun for players who master it.

vala,

I really don’t think that most people in the FGC would claim MK has a higher skill ceiling than Street Fighter.

Delta_V,

They could be right for all I know, haven’t played either since SNES, lol.

MK wins in graphics and story, SF wins in balanced gameplay imo

Ultimate mk3 in an arcade. One quarter for hours of fun.

I haven’t really followed either since the SNES, but we always preferred Street Fighter. Faster pace and less awkward button combinations.

Wiz,

SNES Street Fighter had some impossible moves. OK, most of them were extremely challenging, because they tried to emulate joystick moves with thumb buttons.

Rhynoplaz,

Check out this guy who couldn’t Yoga Flame!

I prefer MK because the characters are great, the lore is great, the input methods are fun and you get to kill your opponent.

SF was fun when I was a teenager 😅

EDIT: WTF is wrong with you people? I played SF when I was a kid because that’s when it first became popular. It’s not an insult, chill with the downvotes.

Rocky’s Boots on Apple II. It was an educational logic game using logic gates to complete puzzles.

Lunatic Fringe, it was a screensaver so to play it you had to wait for your computer to go to sleep, and if you moved the mouse the game would end.

That shithead skeleton from Undertale. If I an ever forced to play that game, it’s all genocide all day, idc that it’s the hardest mode. That game looks like ass and its fans are insufferable, but that fucking little skeleton deserves to be ground up and snorted.
