Red pill me on fighting games

What's their appeal?

Beat someone
Learn shit to have control over the pace of the match and dominate your opponent
No cuck shit relying on others to do anything: It's you & your opponent. Chances are you losing was your fault unless specific reasons, usually unoptimal playing conditions.

its really fun playing with equally skilled opponents. But thats for every pvp game.

At first, fun to be able to defeat opponent despite not knowing the meta moves and combos
But once you want to actually learn the combos it gets way fun to a point. When you Duke it out with autists who actually play a shit ton of hours to learn match-ups and frame data it kind of gets too burdensome.

reverse sonic games where you have to work for a spectacle

no idea bro they were always just mashing buttons to me

i like winning against my mom in them and then she gets mad :)

Try playing one

For me, its thst they're pure skill (unless the game is shit). Theres no rng, no team to carry you, just two niggas fighting till the guy whos shit loses.

i also enjoy playing against your mom

You have to work for spectacle in Sonic games too. The classic and boost games constantly throw things that you have to react to quickly. Keeping your speed is the reward for playing well.

It's like playing a musical instrument, the character is an extension of you. CvS2 put it best, "this is true love we're making"

doa2u doesn't work online anymore since xbox live was shut down over a decade ago for the original xbox so that's not my mom user

Are you competitive by nature? After that it's all just subjective.

Combination of mental and physical challenge in a 1v1 environment. Lots to learn and lots of interaction with the other person, not 90% single player shit like mobas/battle royales

None. It's an obsolete game-type similar to RTS. Only reason it existed was the arcade era. The only reason it continues to exist is people can't let go.

It can depend on the kind of fighting game, but I will try and keep it to general stuff.

- As a competitive game, it is a pure spectacle of who is the better player, no one to blame but yourself.
- Learning new things in training mode.
- Doing said new things in an actual match
- Doing said new things consistently across multiple matches, seeing how much you have improved.
- Expressing yourself through your character/team, this would usually be your playstyle with the character or some disgusting setplay in a game like Marvel vs Capcom 3.

Those are the main things that spring to mind, I think a lot of the appeal overlaps with rhythm games but instead of songs, it's human opponents, as time goes on you get better if you put in the work.

pure gameplay
near infinite replay value

Pure gameplay, pure competition. If you lose it's because you messed up. No teammates to blame anything on, just your skill vs your opponents.

not accurate

Very accurate

somewhat accurate

Isn't Virtua Fighter stupidly hard or something?

god bless

>Isn't Virtua Fighter stupidly hard or something?
No, its not. if anyone claiming its hard has never played the game.

For the 5 people on this board who have played Pokken, where would it be placed?

Nope, you have a few difficult moves like Akira's knee but the vast majority of the things in the game are easy, especially in VF5

whats pokken?

That pokemon tekken game.

Doing cool shit with your character.

based pokken tournament in this faggot image would be put in 1-79
in reality it'd be like 100-120 i think
>Isn't Virtua Fighter stupidly hard or something?
it has the lowest ceiling but it's still hard to play perfectly

anyway the image is a fucking joke for having KI at the top and MVC3 above MVC2. missing KoF also.

You fight and they are games

I love this bait, it doesn't even pretend to be in line with reality.

sounds like kuso

its not bait

this.

It's honestly brilliant
>SFII next to NRS shit
>GG and VF next to kekken
>shit like VSP and RS above other shit just because they're old
>Bloody Roar at the very top despite no one actually playing it

Then why was it made? The person who made it clearly either isn't being serious or has sever mental deficiencies, regardless of opinions on games the list itself is utterly nonsensical and clearly is so on purpose. Or did you make it and you're here to tell me you are the dumbest fuck on the planet?

Its extremely accurate for "bait"
