Fighting games are artificially difficult...

No fighting game on the market right now has strict timings. SFV is the only link based that I can remember and there's no 1/2f links in that game.

>That's already what's happening in any anime game. Just let the non-autists in on the fun too.
no you actually want autists who cant adapt to be let in

the only fighting game on the market with remotely strict timing on the links is SFV and even then they're easy mode when compared to some of the links of the prior games

If execution barriers weren't so strict more people would be playing and people wouldn't have such an overwhelming advantage for mindlessly grinding inputs for 5000 hours in training mode. Nobody has time for that shit.

Fighting games won't exist in a decade if they don't get more people playing them.

Still too strict.

Yeah if by adapt you mean spend an insane amount of time learning combos. You can be a god at neutral but you're still gonna be at a disadvantage when the other guy's gonna take 50% of your health converting a poke into an epic combo.

I have the opposite problem. With equipment delay/connection or whatever I end up doing combos just slightly too fast and the rest of the buttons in the chain don't register. I can't tell if it's too loose or too tight.

Go play Fantasy Strike and tell me it's combo timing holding you back

>Still too strict.

isn't that your problem? Millions of people enjoy the game and its widely regarded as the easiest game to get into. What does that say about you?

Combos are not even the hard part of fighting games. They're not even necessary. Unless you consider a jumping kick into a low sweep to be a difficult combo.

Like user said. Play Samsho if you don't want any combos

The only thing difficult about fighting games nowadays is bothering to launch discord and having to deal with anime avatar trannies and zoomers.

unironically get good if not then fighting games arent for you so stop trying to make it for you

If it was any easier to execute you'd still complain because your fundamentals would be shit and competent players would still shit on you. Face it, you're looking for a shortcut for putting in effort and outplaying the other player, and you're not gonna find it. Even if they made a game to your exact specifications you'd grow bored in hours since your interest was superficial to begin with and everyone would only be left with another dead franchise to pander to disinterested people such as yourself.

This. I can't combo for shit in most fighting games but can make up for with other movement, reads, etc. You are just shit if you blame everything on combos.

Coms being hard isn't the problem, combos existing to begin with is
Give me neutral heavy games.

Truly non binary

If strict timings and combo length was the problem, GBVS would be overflowing with players rn

Street fighter exists, MK exists, there are so many neutral based fighters it's hard to count them all.

nigga
combos dont make you good
at all
learn fundamentals, learn to read your opponent, learn movement and spacing, learn defense, learn pokes, and THEN learn combos

It's just rock paper scissors, user.

I'm not trying to make it fun just for me, I'm trying to make it fun for a wider appeal in general and you can see fighting game devs trying to achieve this too because they know this genre is going extinct without major changes.

>If it was any easier to execute you'd still complain because your fundamentals would be shit
Projecting. I have fundamentals but I'll admit I don't have time nor patience to learn combos which is exactly the reason why I see the flaw of this genre so clearly. The only hurdle I need to jump is spend 5000 hours in training mode which anybody with a brain would recognize is a massive waste of time.

Yes, you can have fun with good fundies but you will always lose against someone equal to your skill level if they sank a retarded amount of time grinding combos.

No shit, that's why I mostly play against friends. I go against randos very occasionally and win more than I lose but when I lose I lose big. At least on fighting games without matchmaking you can remember the turbo spergs that combo grind or use scripts and avoid them. The only people I consistently lose against are frame perfect fags.
As long as you know how to use your character's tools combos aren't necessary, even for combo heavy people like pic related. Usually at most I can get a 25 hit with him in a corner which is baby tier.

Also why the fuck only niggers and neet pedos seem to plays that genre

which game?

Skullgirls
Also i was playing on keyboard (I think people claims it influence things)

Play Fightcade. There are always other noobs joining in there.
>Skullgirls
I get reamed on that too, despite liking it a lot.
I never could play on it but some people say it's fine.

For a subreddit for hardcore gamers, Zig Forums sure loves to make excuses for being bad at games.

Keyboard is actually great for fighting games. You get more precise inputs out of it, while having the downside of being forced to more inputs in order to do a motion for example

Hitboxes are functionally the same as keyboards
