Re: General fighting game banter
Okay, coming to this thread a bit late. In Dissidia, to get the pre-match character dialog based on the matchup, set battle cutscenes to long, in the options menu. I have a menu guide in the accessible-retro-games section of my site.
Speaking of Dissida, even though I've tried MK11, admittedly using Stadia because I only have a 240 GB hard dirve, I just don't get what the hype is. I mean, its just another MK game. I don't know, maybe Superblindman and I are just two different gamers. He seems more casual, whereas I enjoy more things to do in games than just kill kill kill, mash buttons and maybe learn what a few things do. I mean, even the tutorial, which has little tones for button input which isn't explained or anything but blind people have like, super hearing so they like, automatically like, know like, what the sound like, means like, right? Right?
I still love dissidia, much more than any other game I've come across. The chase mechanic, the need to depleet BRV before HP to do more damage, wall rushes, pounding opponents against walls in a sound fasion that makes sense to me, a pretty much one on one meaning for sound and action, racing your opponent to get an ex-core, and the ex-bursts! And let's not even get started on the actually wholesome story, where good clearly wins, and there isn't just like one good person and then everyone else is like, some shade of slightly good but not really. Do we *need* that kind of shadow and darkness in this time that we deal with now? I mean, shouldn't we be putting good things into our minds, and not just filling ourselves with more blood, more needless violence, and for not much of a good reason than to "unwind"? Becuase really, things things do effect you. Games are effective at setting at least your current mode. I'm not saying there isn't violence in Dissidia, but it's not... Murder. It's not wripping limbs off audibly, stabbing with such intent to kill and cuase aweful pain, well for the heros at least, as so much of MK11. And as far as my small mind, which I will readily admit wasn't taught to think critically much at all during school, can tell, there are no huge retcons that turn previously good characters, Sindel, into awful ones, Sindel is now basically a female Shao Khan.
So yeah, there's my advertizement for Dissidia, a pretty clean, fun, smaller sized but much more content-filled game than even MK11.
