      lol me too. I grew up in the 90s/early 2000s so had no online gaming. I also had no friends to play with and only ever played against the computer. First time I got to play against someone was in college, and he got super mad at my button mashing. He was trying to do all those combos and stuff and I was just mashing butting and just destroying him. He was livid saying “wtf that’s not how you play what are you doing”

  • This is why I like Soul Calibur.

    It knows that’s what you’re going to do and makes every random combo of buttons do cool shit 😌

    It’s the fighting game for people who suck at fighting games. It’s my favorite.

      Those really old games have somewhat inconsistent input readers. There’s a homebrew remix of that game called TMNT x Justice League turbo that plays much much better and is a huge amount of fun for the price of free on PC.

    Not a fighting game, but relevent:

    Edit: Wait is there any FTL fans here? I missed the FTL community in… the old website that we shall not mention. I kinda have an urge to go back and visit.
