So I'm a filthy casual wrestling gamer and I can't figure out what I'm supposed to do in Wrestling Empire that involves all this extra content. I keep reading that you can train and raise stats and stuff but I have no idea how to do any of that. I've left the building and gone into town before and I've even gone to the gym but I have no idea how you're supposed to do anything. The only thing I figured out how to do is sleep at the hotel

But my big problem is the time limit. Whenever you go into running around mode or whatever it's called, there's always a time limit for you to get back to the arena on time for your match and it's never enough time for me to run around and truly explore. Is there a free roam mode with no time limit? And what do I do to train and raise stats? Oh and can you eat the food on the ground to regain health? I can pick it up but none of the buttons do anything other than throw it or try to use it like a weapon

There are signs in the gym that tell you how to raise your stats. You don't need to sleep at the hotel your health will refill automatically between weeks. You can taunt while holding food or drink to gain some health from it, everything but fruit or water will also make you gain weight. When it's time for you to have a match you don't have to run to the curtain, just back out to the calendar and hit proceed.

i hope many of the 'taunts' available are little semi-idling animations like fixing your hair or adjusting boots rather than having to raise your arms or do the cut throat like 10 times in a match because it helps you keep your momentum. both can be in there at the same time so nobody loses if you do want to do the "suck it" 15 times

Bro if I can’t have Shiro Koshinaka’s weird rear end taunt with Takayama’s NOOO FEEEEEAAARR voice mapped to it and spam it constantly, what’s the point?

There's also an exploit so you can sleep to full health before every match. Just work out real quick then run out to the ring before the show starts. Time pauses if you're there once it hits show time and you can sleep there. Can even bring weights with you to work out between sleeping. Some characters may come and wake you up and tell you to leave but you don't have to.

I won my first match in Fire Pro, just doing the basics over and over. Didn't try anything fancy. Poo score in the end, but I won

I really need to get into a groove where I wrestle with one wrestler, even a CAW, and learn them back to front. There seems to be no career mode in the basic game though.

i would do that online or in couch co-op. but in private where i want to obsess over the back and forth and spots and psychology of the matches that only i ever see or know about, i'd like it to be realistic

there are 3 Fighting Road scenarios in the DLCs, one that comes with the first NJPW collaboration DLC, one for the NJPW Juniors and an original story written by Suda 51 that's also a sequel to the story mode he wrote for Super Fire Pro Wrestling Special

Thanks to both of you. I'll goof around with it today and see what I can figure out.

You also taunt while holding a weight to lift and gain strength, correct?

If you want to get the striking down in Fire Pro, I suggest you give your edit any of the various middle kicks (like a roundhouse to the body). They're extremely forgiving in their hitbox, and they come out fast so you can throw a lot of them as you learn the distance.

It has become a little easier for me with time- I think a key is patience, kinda waiting for your opponent and using strikes as a kind of space denial. I feel like it’s as much about timing as the grapples are, but in a different way.

after a long Fire Pro striking training session I can also reccomend you decompress after by booting up a brawler character in Wrestling Empire and putting a beatdown on someone. It is therapeutic.

Trick to striking in fire pro is walking away from the ai and letting them navigate themselves into the strike hit box or just standing them up to dizzy and hitting the strike button.

This is the trick right here. Just start backing away from your opponent and they will walk towards you, into the hit box area. Best if you’re walking horizontally/along the X-axis (sorry, don’t know the proper term) as the striking seems more accurate that way.

It truly is astonishing that MDickie took his game that's built on thumbtacks, bubblegum, and prayer and not only got it running flawlessly but also turned it into a full on open world game with a day/night cycle and sidequests and multiple fully simulated wrestling leagues that somehow lets you run 100 person battle royals in arenas filled with fire and exploding motorcycles and it all runs flawlessly on the Switch.

Meanwhile WWE games took like 20 years to get to the point where they can just barely manage 8 players at a buttery smooth 24 fps

What rules is I remember seeing his name & weird games looking for alternatives to whatever Extreme Warfare variant was around at the time. It's endearing that he's not just still making what are clearly passion projects but he even sells them on a Nintendo system.
