Actually excited for this one. I really want to play a quality fighting game without paying $60 + DLC before the community starts dying or being too elitist.
Most of the fighting games really. I got Tekken 7 on discount and got bodied online, I also picked up a guilty gear game a few years ago and got destroyed. It’s less that they’re elitist and more that after a few months of a fighting game launching, most of the people still playing would’ve gotten good at the game and there are no beginners anymore.
That will tend to happen, but there are always ways to find beginners. Guilty Gear's floor system is pretty good at it; it's the higher ranks that have matchmaking issues. Tekken's ranking system is really good, but the netcode is really bad, so you'll have to wait for Tekken 8 to expand your pool of players that you can feasibly have a good match with. Anything that's on Game Pass, like Guilty Gear is now, will have a regular stream of low-level players. It made it really enjoyable to pick up Killer Instinct all these years later, even though I'm on the Steam version, because it's got cross play with Game Pass (note that KI is weird in this case, because only the casual queue is cross play). For a lot of other fighting games, you can usually just ping a beginner role on the game's Discord, which isn't tedious like it sounds, because you only need one other person to play with to enjoy a fighting game.
I also understand that $60-$70 can be steep, but I'd highly recommend you try playing at launch with one fighting game that interests you. Street Fighter 6 is still enjoying a larger online population (meaning more low-level players) than most fighting games, historically, have ever seen even at their peaks. Mortal Kombat 1 is launching in September and Tekken 8 will likely launch within a year, and both seem to be focused on making single player modes to make that launch price more worth it. Or you can hold out for Project L, but that might be more than a year or two away, and you've got several big opportunities to experience that launch day period between now and then.
The footage from other YouTubers like Vaati was only a few selected missions from Chapter 1 and this shows the same missions so spoilers should be extremely minimal. Your AC will probably be very different too depending on what you build so in my opinion it'll be pretty safe if you're okay with a few missions in Chapter 1 being spoiled. The end of the video has the final boss of Chapter 1 so you could stop at 11 minutes in to avoid that but even then AC isn't like Souls at all so spoilery stuff is way less damaging to the experience in my opinion.
I watched two of the three, and really enjoyed them. Sure, I'd much rather see more gameplay, and they didn't do anything to sell me on the game itself, but they were enjoyable nonetheless
I remember this game. I was to young to get very far and found it way too challenging for my age (I was like under 10 so understandably not the audiance).
I just remembering really wishing I could understand it because they graphics where really cool and whimsical.
It’s a shame no one whould pick it up. It’d have been excellent for somthing like super gaint games as they seem to have a great isometric engine built and Darren Korbs music style whould fit perfectly. I guess they’re busy with a Hades sequel though.
Same story here, plus I loved the different "moods" thing. I don't think I ever got past like the second screen but it's still a game that's stuck with me. I'll be looking out for the remaster.
Looks very much like what I remember from Armored Core games back on PS1, just with much better visuals and polish. I’m sure I’ll have fun with it, but I think this game will see a lot of scrutiny from the usual FromSoft fans. I’ve seen “mechasouls” tossed around a lot and I think a lot of people are expecting an experience more in line with the Soulsborne format.
This reminds me of the Earthbound box set for the SNES back in the day with scratch and sniff pages in the included game guide. Bad idea then, bad idea now haha
