Being able to still call an assist after the character is dead in 2XKO is cowardly fighting game design to me

The best part of VF is that low-level and top-level play can both look like this. All the game's best decision-making tools and risk reduction tactics still sometimes lead you to "do three fuckin raw launchers"

Agreed - I do miss the more unique chars from 14 (though I never want to play vs a competent Mian)

The kof issue wrt game length since KOFXIII was the opposite end of the seesaw where the meterless/low meter combos and pokes did so little damage. It's gotten better but there's still that first 1-2 minutes where even clean hits might be sub 15-20%

Absolutely and it's not debatable. As someone who enjoys the game, I was really excited for it when I first played it 2.5 years ago

They basically just played it the same as Valorant - they made their version of a 'hardcore' game and let cosmetics carry the rest of the popularity burden. There's just not enough of an existing playerbase that knows fgs through osmosis compared to FPS, TCGs, auto battlers, etc

Don't sleep on Night Striker GEAR, it has a bit of a lame start, the controls take a lot of getting used to (& basically require analog), the visibility is often crap but holy shit. Iuchi did not stop the inherent difficulties of reading 3D patterns stop him from cooking up some proper shmuppy stuff

Starting the year with a small glimpse of underwater & swimming gameplay!

What kind of hidden places might be hidding under the ocean?

The game is ABYSS X ZERO by the way! Still a work in progress!

ALL NAMES HAVE BEEN FOUND ON WORLD STAGE MODE! We did it, everyone! Every single name has been found on Virtua Fighter 5 R.E.V.O. World Stage's Single Player Mode! I have lost so much sleep trying to finish this spreadsheet and it's finally done! I will continue to update the notes along the way.

#VFTIPS Please RT!

Evade gives better advantage than guard; many safe-on-guard moves are punishable if evaded, plus most strikes in the game are linear! But evading leaves you open to circulars and delayed strikes. An opponent who delays will hit you! (1/2)

Important PSA for Virtua Fighter 5 REVO World Stage players:

Crossplay for netplay is not enabled by default!

It needs to be turned on in the GAME SETTINGS menu!

Turn this on if you want to play against players using different consoles online. Not sure why it's off by default.

29.10.2025 18:20 β€” πŸ‘ 70    πŸ” 54    πŸ’¬ 4    πŸ“Œ 1

To sum it up shortly, it's a system where
1. You can tech throws without whiffing anything
2. The option to beat this doesn't require the player running offense to give up their turn
Both opposite of the 'standard' throws that are the standard in so many 2D games now. Would be a nice change of pace

Amen, more designers should iterate from the bb throw system

27.10.2025 12:50 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

Instead you could apply trm (throw reject miss) instead or just give KOF throws.
