Didn't he get a lot of pats on the back a few years ago for having a no-nonsense policy against harassment to women at a tournament he ran (might have been after the whole Cross Assault shitshow)?

I forget what Heavy D! is saying in Japanese (I think NO GOOD!) when he wins in KoF'94 but it just straight up sounds like he's saying NO poo poo. Which is amazing because very time you win with him you hear "Heavy! Wo-NO poo poo."


In the bizarre and mega-broken kinda sorta its director is given a special thanks in the credits for but not officially related in any way precursor to Samurai Shodown, Shogun Warriors/Fujiyama Buster, it actually had an English dub. But do the dubbing when you do Geisha's spin attack it sounds like she's shouting WHAT A FUCKER! Which is of course amazing because you're a kid playing it in an arcade in the early 90s.

Samsho 1.11 patch notes: https://www.snk-corp.co.jp/us/games/samuraishodown/news/ss_patch_1.11_eng.pdf

Basically unless you're a Yoshitora player or someone who needed Genjuro to be busted to care about the game you should be really happy. System changes and most character changes are A++ IMO.

Yeah this for real fuckin' owns. I'm most excited about the help Shiki is getting since I use her a lot+the general timing change for FB and DP moves is good since confusing people about whether you're going to do her QCB+S or her RDP+S is fun and doing that more consistently aftet back dashing will own.


I kinda hate Yoshitora on like every level so hell yeah lol

"Increased recovery frames" on like every single Genjuro note is what I wanted to see.

Honestly Yoshitora's probably gonna be fine enough still though, the biggest change is just that jC isn't going to be as stupid of a button anymore, which is fine.

Also great big hell yeah on Yashamaru and Ukyo buffs.

I wasn't expecting to get this many buffs for hanzo, honestly I was really only hoping for safe-on-hit air shuriken and 5D to be a more functional anti-air. Got both of those and a ton of stuff that looks like it may make his teleports more reliable :getin:

On the samsho patchnotes I'm a little confused on some of Charlotte's-- did they remove invulnerability completely for the startup of her medium DP, and then increase it for the heavy DP?

Also, expanded hitbox on advancing light slash :getin:
Increased recovery frames on standing kick :getout:

SamSho patch looks great. It's good that p. much everyone got buffs while the two dominant characters got reasonable changes to their kits. Happy with the changes that Tengu Man got as well for recovery/pushback and damage.

Trip report:

Shurikens are a lot harder to punish, even on block. Can sometimes still be punished on hit if your positioning is wrong.
Cloak teleport (421S/K) comes out super quick now. Seems like it's even possible to cross someone up with rage 214C followed by a behind teleport.
Command grabs do enough damage now to be a respectable punish/threat, its particularly noticable on his running grab. During rage burst his stationary heavy grab does around 25-30% now.
Seems like ninjas can't log teleport to punish combos anymore, so no more wiggling out of jubei dp or hit confirms into weapon flip
Invulnerability on teleport startups is definitely better feeling but I don't really have a handle on it. They seem like they were evading late attacks more often.
Didn't really get a good feel for the 5K buff, didn't have anyone jumping in in me

Overall I'm pretty thrilled with the changes, especially the command grab damage buff. Pre-patch was an uphill battle against anyone who knew the matchup since his damage was real bad and his ability to open someone up was pretty gimmicky. Speeding up his 421 teleports makes his toolset feel complete in that regard

Using Charlotte a lot this makes sense to me because her medium DP was way better and more useful than the other two versions while the heavy one was especially bad IMO.

I'll miss kneeing people a lot though. :/

That has been happening for a long time in some form or another. Every Tekken game has a really rough initial arcade release that gets refined by the time the game hits consoles. Street fighter in every iteration has multiple releases to address things that didn’t come up in internal testing. It’s just a faster release cycle now.

there's a marked difference in paying $60 up front for an incomplete or busted game for the sake of EVO marketing vs either of those two examples

Also gently caress Floe, gently caress Infiltration, gently caress Gilty (at least they knew enough that they were a problem and apologized) and gently caress the FGC old guard that runs the big events.

How is samurai showdown incomplete or busted? It has had very good reception and the latest patch is just a large balance patch.

The lobby system was absurd and tons of characters had hosed Up hitboxes or bugs (the most glaring being when you disarm Nak she would just disappear).

I understand the frustration but it's playing vanilla Samurai Shodown 2019 I can't imagine calling it broken or incomplete compared to the state some fighting games are in when they're released. Clearly it could have been better, like any game could have, but what's there is a complete game. Otherwise by that definition every single video game ever made was released incomplete.
