Floe's one of the few streamers I actually consider giving money to now and again.

I mean mostly so I can give him a terrible challenge to suffer through, but even still, he's danced (Literally some even) for my amusement long enough to feel like it's fair.

Is D4Windows only meant to work with a dual shock controller?

Mostly yeah, it masks that you're using a DS4 and tells the computer you're actually using an Xboner pad, which because things are dumb, makes it more compatible with a ton more things.

ZenMasterBullshit posted:

KI's biggest problem is that it's the most visually noisy fighter I've seen in forever where between single fire balls and stage effects the screen can become 60% obscured by big ugly particle effects.

Not to mention the game blasts sound clips constantly to really up the sensory overload. It's like they're trying to hide their game.

It's pretty fun though.

Like people can post the screenshots of the charged Jago fireball splash and all the huge effects, but honestly once I get playing I don't think I've ever stopped and thought like "Man all these effects are blocking view" or anything similar.

Also the music is 10/10 for the most part, go into options, turn that up, turn announcer down.

In terms of screwing around and just fun had with them.

3S.

I liked Darkstalkers 3/Vampire Savior/Resurrection whatever you wanna call that particular Darkstalkers.

Heritage for the Future.

The new KI I wanna give some mention to because while I didn't ever have much connection to the old ones beyond "I've played them", I've enjoyed the new one a whole lot since PC release.

Also UMK3 for being what it was.

So if you're gonna play Guilty Gear, just get it on PS4? The PC population is pretty dire going by steamcharts and I can't imagine Rev 2 is really gonna do that much to help it.

It's been eons since I've played one and figured screw it, I see some copies for pretty cheap cheap-ish at a place around me.

I'm a PC player and I still find games fine, but who knows how much more bumping it is on the PS4. I can't pull down any actual numbers but I'd imagine they're pretty comparable? Or maybe there's secretly 10x the people playing it on PS4, who knows, I dunno which guys here netplay on the PS4 and can confirm/deny.

Ah well dang, admittedly steamcharts isn't infallible or anything, people with private profiles don't get counted so I'm probably just running off info that looks worse than it is.

attackmole posted:

e: looks like it's going for 20 bucks on Amazon right now if that beats your local prices, as opposed to the full price PC special.

Though shiiiiit, I see that now, might have to bite solely for that price, my cheaper looking one was still like $40.

Pc rev has better netplay and less random baddies but usually costs more money

The downside however is that I'm pretty not great at these games (GG/BB/Similar) usually, so more random crummy-okay dudes online is kind of a positive for me at least for a bit.

Although Tekken 7 looks really good so that might change.

I'm hoping that turns out true as well. Wanted to play Tekken again for a while now too, but I'm lame and tag has never been my thing, so I've been waiting ever since Tag2 for that to run it's course and finally 7's getting it's rear end onto a home port.

The only thing that bums me out about 7 though is that we're getting Master Raven instead of not-Blade Raven. :smith:

So instead of having people that actually animate things some 50 year old dude who wasn't good enough to be Nameless Goon in a cheesy 80s action movie covers himself in rubber balls and does it all himself and gets paid millions of dollars.

DBFZ makes me sad the same way TTT2 did, I can't really care enough to deal with tag games and even when you have the option of "Oh just play 1 really strong guy instead" it often just means you get completely smoked by people still doing the 100000 hit tag assist striker kizuna combos.
