There were plenty of cool reveals at EVO, mostly reveals of DLC for the games that were there. It's a lot more niche than something like E3, and that's to be expected.
Plus a new Guilty Gear
That is probably the best reveal of this EVO.

Like what? Cassandra and Haohmaru in SoulCalibur? Zafina and some new rando in Tekken? New fighters in a bunch of anime games? Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat going through the motions? Which come to think of it, perfectly explains what the other games are doing too. The only cool tease turning out to be the EVO staff ****ing around? Yeah. So much cool stuff.

I've been vaguely interested in Guilty Gear since last EVO. I might get this new one, but I don't have a PS4 and that's where all the new fighting games are getting released...

yeah... DLC for other games, which fans of those games are going to be excited for... not to mention two new games from very popular franchises. Just because it doesn't appeal to you doesn't mean its bad. I'll admit the Snake fake out was pretty wack though

There was a problem fetching the tweet
The day after Detective Pikachu releases on DVD. Nice! >:]

Also, that date falls in line with a rumor from 4 days ago: Possible Spoiler Warning
Huh - will be interesting to see what the reaction to this one will be: the direct got a largely positive response, E3's was ... well you know what happened with that, so it'll be interesting to see what this one's like


That's pretty cool. Wish I could have a slice. :(

That being said, today's the day I turn 24. Here's celebrating 24 years of existence for me! :)
Happy birthday!

I’m a fan of Tekken and SoulCalibur. But these reveals actively depress me with how safe they are as picks.

King of Fighters? I guess that’s cool. But not really hype. Guilty Gear? I guess it’s just not for me. But I would have preferred a different new game get revealed in its place. It just all feels boring. And I blame it on the fact that we’re in the generation gap right when the previous one is basically over but the new one hasn’t come out yet. I just want to see a reason to be excited again.

Also. Bad it subjective. There is no such thing as objective good or bad. I still think E3 was horrible and now I think EVO was bad. You can think it was good. But I have the right to say how much I thought it sucked.

I’d love to see what they could do with a different art style. They always look great. But... I don’t know. I kinda feel like the anime aesthetic is a little limiting
ASW is known for there anime style so thats mostly what they stick with and they do it hella well, Guilty Gear for example, its lioks so damn beautiful, that awesome 3D

Time to play Three Houses!



Jigglypuff was the closest thing I could think of to a Voice Actor, so that's why it's there.
If it isn’t to much to ask, can you make me a spirit battle? I’m pretty curious. lol

I'm thinking, what could Nintendo have in their late fall/winter Line-up besides Banjo.

I'm thinking there may be a big update to Mario Maker 2 incoming. Just hope they add the option to shut Luigi up in single player.

Sighs..... I guess. Whatever.

I guess I have to live with the fact that since everyone else likes it it’s going to replace what I like and what I like is just going to be gone.

If we get another Smash, Dragalia Lost is a shoo-in, just saying
IF we get another Smash?

Do people honestly believe Nintendo will let Smash go? Why is this a thing since Brawl, anyway? Due to the misinterpreted Sakurai interview about that game?

They have Mansion 3 and Pokemon, but I wouldn't be surprised if Three Houses gets DLC of some kind.

I mean as long as Mortal kombat and the like exsists, you will still get what you like
I like the guilty Gear thing in theory. I just wish it was done with a more western animation style. The example I use most often is a Nicktoons fighting game but imagine a Cuphead style fighting game done by arc system works.

The realistic thing is nice too though. And it works best for games like Mortal Kombat and Killer Instinct.

That's just a part of life, knowing that the world has moved on from how you preferred it. For me it was when Telltale went from making Episodic point and click adventures in game series I love to exclusively making Chose Your Own Adventures with false choices based on series I couldn't care less about.

How do you live after that? If what I like goes away I have nothing.

Also my Premium finna die in a few weeks and I probably won’t be able to renew it right away rip

What you like to see sound more like something done by Skullgirl team, not Arc System Works.

Beside, they are a japanese company, I doubt they work on something that they don't much connection to, again tho, the Skullgirl team could work well with a cuphead style fighting game.

I mean. Why not. Why not branch out for the sake of something different?

0-2? Probably won't happen at all.
Don’t downplay yourself like that, as long as you practice and play with other players you will get used to the matchups. Don’t just show up to evo without any experience playing against a human because that would be dumb. Take it slow and focus on locals near your area, and slowly build your way up. Give yourself enough time and you’ll soon become a pro. Might have to start taking this advice too, well not certainly towards evo since Melee isn’t a part of it anymore.
Oh I’m definitely not going in blind. I’m not THAT crazy. All this year, I’m planning to compete in local tourneys and maybe even a few A/S Tier one’s as well. How far I go honestly depends on who I get matched up with. I probably won’t go 0-2, but it’s definitely in the realm of possibility.

Plus Smash may or may not be the only game I enter in (we’ll see). And ultimately, I just wanna go to Vegas and experience EVO live.

Either way, it’s a win-win for me, so I’m good.

How do you live after that? If what I like goes away I have nothing.
There's three options: you enjoy what you have until what you like comes back, you find something new to like or you make your own version of it.

Also damn I wanted Janemba at release, but didn't think it would actually happen. Figured he would be beaten to the punch by a recent character.
