The Botanical Gardens of the Mushroom Kingdom

[Admiral Pit]

At least I am loved by some. Thanks Kyle-kun! I needed a bit of love after what I've been through yesterday. >.<

 

[Two-Ell]

Oh nice a P4A discussion. I'll be at two different tournies this weekend for that(and then stopping at a FL smash regional lol)

 

[ToferTheHuman]

Akihiko and Yukiko are the greatest characters.

 

[GHNeko]

Yu are mistaken.
Yu are the best!

 

[Deleted member]

Akihiko is really hot. Love what they did with his character in comparison to Persona 3.

Naoto is cool.

Elizabeth is freaking broken. Like...I don't know, she seems a cut above the rest to me.

Also, I'm currently watching the Persona 4 anime. :3

 

[KassandraNova]

Me too! I love what they did with akihiko, he's so manly, not as manly as kanji of course. <3

 

[ToferTheHuman]

Akihiko is the manliness of all men.
Kenji is there too, I guess.
Akihiko, no one can touch on his hot manly swag.

Also, do not forget to download the last episode that recently came out.
It's episode 26, the true ending.

 

[deepseadiva]

I only come here for the avatars.

 

[Two-Ell]

Liz isn't broken lol, Thanatos is just a tough ******* to figure out. Players don't respect/understand his pressure and get blown up as a result.

 

[Admiral Pit]

Well, the PSO talk was fun while it lasted, but what do I know? D:

 

[~automatic]

As someone who has never played P4A who should I play as?
I'm going to be running a Brawl tourney at a gaming for charity eventso I get to enter all the tourneys for free and I really wanna enter P4A to see what it's like.

 

[ToferTheHuman]

Try someone who is kinda easy and fun to pick up, like Chie or Aeigis.

Also, Meno comes for MY avi's obv.

 

[~automatic]

Are Chie and Aegis rushdown chars?

 

[Two-Ell]

Chie is more Okizeme based Rushdown and Aigis is Tactical(She's a stance character) Rushdown.

 

[~automatic]

How similar is Chie to Guy (SF4)?

 

[Two-Ell]

Hmmm, I'm not entirely sure since I don't really touch Capcom fighters.

Chie is basically Get in/Open Opponent up -> Sweep combo -> Set up Oki with Tomoe, rinse and repeat(She also does great damage). Her DP is a counter and her Awakening super, Agneyastra(the meteors), is a great tool for almost free pressure(or for reversing lol). All of her Grounded B and C normals are dash cancelable too, a good Chie well have scary stagger pressure(jab is 5 frames and +1 on block).

Here's some footage http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rHacw3AzGqs

 

[DJ Arcatek]

Chie sucks.


Aigis is good.

 

[Two-Ell]

^gets bodied by my Chie on the regular.

 

[pidgezero_one]

The venue I work at features fighting game casuals on Mondays and Wednesdays. Maybe one of these times i'll actually play the games and know what the hell people are talking about.

 

[Zanx8]

Good luck trying to understand this, I'll never get to play P4A, but it is fun to hear them talk about it at least. I love playing as characters who have stances though. Uh, is there like an actual tier list of this game?
Also, I heard there was supposed to be a tinychat. xD

 

[Two-Ell]

It's not that hard to understand really lol. The terms may look intimidating, but when you play the games for a bit, they make sense.

There's like three/four tiers in this game lol. It's balanced pretty well.

 

[ToferTheHuman]

I have seen some great *** players play Chie, they're really good set ups and everything.

And yeah, the Game is balanced out really well

 

[~automatic]

Aegis kind of reminds me of Noel from Blazblue.

 

[Zanx8]

Alright, I'm relieved to hear that.
That's pretty cool though! Balanced games are definitely fun so now I kinda want to play it.
Is there any high level videos someone could show me?

 

[Two-Ell]

Watch any p4a videos on Jourdal's or pktazn's YT channels.

If you want character specific vids go to either Dustloop or Mayonaka Midnight and look at the character specific boards.

 

[KassandraNova]

All I have to say is....

**** mitsuru. Lmao

 

[GHNeko]

DID SOMEONE SAY MITSURU?

MANDATORY ****ING POST.

 

[ToferTheHuman]

You posted that already.

 

[GHNeko]

I did, but every time Mitsuru is mentioned, It's my civic duty to post this picture.

That move is one of the reasons why I can't take P4A seriously. Another reason is that it's an Arcsys/Aksys game lol.

 

[KassandraNova]

You posted that already.

Yeah. He isn't very fresh.

 

[GHNeko]

well jeez if you put it like that. ;_;

 

[ToferTheHuman]

That's a stupid reason.
The game is balanced, it's really smooth, and it's a lot of fun to play.

Keep playing Brawl and your other games, NERD.

 

[GHNeko]

I said that's ONLY one of the reasons I don't take the game seriously. I'm actually pretty picky and have high standards when it comes to games I take seriously because I devote too much of my time to games I take seriously. I cant take them all seriously else I'll have no life.

P4A has reasonable balance, but there are some wacky characters and some characters with questionable designs. This is also one of the more gimmicky fighting games out there.

The game is fun. I love Yu. And it's also very fun to watch, and as the best style out of all the fighting games ever.

Also. I don't play Brawl lol.

I also give Aksys/Arcsys a lot of **** (in a friendly way) because pretty much all their games have questonable yet reasonable balance, with gimmicks all over the place, and are generally very deep, and only have a small, but very faithful following after the initial hype wears off and the true fans are there to stay.

EDIT: The only really negative trend i've been seeing with Aksys/Arcsys games is that it seems like each game they put out is getting more and more simple and streamlined - case and point - P4A/BB.

 

[ToferTheHuman]

What a nerdy post.

P4A for life.

 

[GHNeko]

well

i live sleep eat video games, especially fighting games.

what do you expect.

also i'm a geek. not a nerd. get it straight.

 

[ToferTheHuman]

We're just two different people.
This relationship was ruined from the beginning.

 

[GHNeko]

I agree.

I think its time we see other people.

 

[KassandraNova]

Neko, stop letting me and tofer troll you. Lmao

 

[GHNeko]

loool. it hit me that you guys were ****ing with me after his response to my geeky post. i had this super long post typed up and then i was like, 'wait a second...oh gosh."


i love talking fighting games so it was instinct to respond with my long post. @_@

 

[ToferTheHuman]

AAANNNNNDDDD this is why Kass is my Super Special Awesome Kawaii Desu gay Waifu.
