I don't post as much anymore but I'm always around. I also just picked up Lobo too and I really like him so far, he's really fun to play. Well if you ever want to play don't be afraid to hit me up on PSN, I'm usually down to play even though I don't take this game that serious.
Neither does PL.

Turn off interacables and transitions to make it all about the player and character. Anyone consider that? Try it for a day and you'll see more to your character and more to your MU.

Sitting here really thinking about it....Yeah IGAU is gonna seem boring. Game's still young...All top tourney characters get used more based on their easy to learn spamming tech...While supposedly lower tier characters "sit" in low tier 'cause the work needed to learn them to make them tourney viable is too hard to "learn". Hence....Seeing the same characters win tournaments and the same characters not make it. I guess with outlooks like that? Hell....Anyone would Fall Asleep at their most exciting life moments!

I have a hard time seeing it from the perspective of a tournament/professional player who spends multiple hours each day with the game, but from a specatator perspective I agree. I normally watch Top 8 matches on stream, but it is getting increasingly boring. Main culprit as many have already pointed out is the dominance of relatively boring to watch Top Tier Characters.

From a casuals player perspective I have more fun playing Injustice than I had with MK9, despite being slighty slower overall. It it easier to be slightly decent with multiple characters, which increases the games life span. I don't play to win money or become the best on PSN, I play simply to have fun while doing so (of course wining is more fun than losing). But like any other game I stop playing once it stops being fun, there are so many other games out there. That said Injustice has a stonger pull on me compared to MK9 and I dare to predict that I will play it a lot longer (advanced casually) as well.

Stop treating MK9 like it's the holy grail of fighting games.

Both games suck.

But both can still be fun.

MK9 is a abomination.
Injustice is where they almost got it right. It's a like a nice slice of cake, but the icing is kinda stale.

NEEDS ANOTHER FRESH COAT OF ICING!

Lol this post is so randomly funny
 
You know what actually helps make the game a lot more fun?

Good ole fashion THC.

No joke dude when I'm sober it's hard to get motivated to play IGAU. Never had that problem with mk9.

but when I'm baked ill spend hours and hours and hours grinding matchups and practicing set ups and it doesn't get boring at all..
word! . . .

FIGHTING games are shit

The FIGHTING community is shit

Typical FIGHTING player: "THIS CHARACTER IS BROKEN THAT'S WHY I AM LOSING (please nerf)"
And yet, here you are. A member of a fighting game forum. Posting in a fighting game thread. About how much you hate fighting games.

All that self loathing can't possibly be good for you.

From what I have read over the last few months... this community does not want a balanced game..

Not balanced as far as tier list goes, but balanced as far as contrast of styles go. You have offensive characters, defensive, zoners, and characters that are in-between having above avg offense and defense but not too powerful in either area.

If you are a defensive player or a player who uses zoning as it caters to your skill set as a player, then you naturally pick zoners or defensive characters and try to slow the game down vs heavily offensive players. As an offensive player, you pick very offensive characters and want to speed the match up and get in and mix your opponent up for eternity. At high level, these styles co-exist and you get a nice in-between with a mix of offense, defense, and zoning.. This community calls that "boring" though. They want everyone to play the exact same way. dash in, yolo, and play super fast and offensive.

A game that does not cater to multiple styles, but instead only caters to one style and one skill set would be terrible. Yet, this is exactly what ppl THINK they want.

I have heard ONE MILLION offensive buff ideas for the overall system of the game. Yet, NO ONE even mentions any zoning buffs or defensive buffs. A game needs to be able to cater to all styles...

You're right. This community would be so much better if no one ever joined.
It's great if they have legit, informed, constructive opinions.
It's not great if they don't. Half of the posts here by 2013 people are not legit, informed, constructive opinions. There's a reason why most of my posts nowdays are just gifs you know.

Better the devil you know than the devil you don't.
