As a Noel player (arguably the most braindead character in the series), everything I've done in a BB game is still more complicated than NRS games adding in random buttons after specials

First off, you basically ARE learning twice as many special moves. I mean the inputs aren’t as complex but you still have to learn the special move and the subset part that would cause a meter burn. If a character has 15 special moves with subsets, that’s almost equivalent to if that character had 30 special moves, just with a bit less complexity.
Wow. I'm a Tao player (arguably the most rare and difficult character in the series). I hope to play you one day, if you're EU. Got this in PC and PS4 (PC preferrably). Being an anime FGer makes things much easier, while doing the hard AF inputs.
They are heading to a bad direction
It literally adds nothing.
I disagree. It adds depth to the game.
How so? It changes the gameplay and meta not one bit.
It adds depth to character knowledge simply because it takes away the universal aspect of doing moves. It also makes counter-picking way more interesting because of this.
It was... And it was summarily dumped to the "Netherrealm". I think there is something in that for all of us...
Because it was already being discussed here possibly?
It literally adds 15-20 minutes in the lab memorizing how to amplify a particular character's given specials.
So should we just torch it all and reduce the fight to see who hits the win button first?
This adds 0 depth to the character knowledge. You memorize 3 extra inputs that don’t affect the gameplay at all and you’re done. 99.9% of your time will be spent learning the meta, combos, punishes and everything else.
Given that changing the MB buttons doesn’t change the gameplay at all, or how the match goes, or the win conditions, I’m not sure what your point is here.
I'm not sure where anyone said they were in favor of this.
If the argument against is "it adds nothing to the meta" then why have different inputs at all? Why have different moves? Why have different characters?
I agree it adds nothing to the meta or depth to the game. I think what some of us are mostly worried about are seeing counter pick fests at every major. It would just require a person to devote more time to a character to just say “ya know, why learn this matchup when I can just play this character” and then some character just don’t progress in the long run. It’s lame but it’s really up to nrs to try to avoid this from happening with good balance.
Maybe next time have this attitude about new features BEFORE blindly hating them down.
I was under the impression that the timing of inputs to enhance moves before the change was strict.
To me this seems like more of a community issue than an issue with the game. NRS players seem more willing to learn multiple characters than players in other fighting games. Personally I don't mind counterpicking. I think it's fun to watch top players bust out 2-3 different characters. Adds more variety to the viewing experience.
No one who is willing to go through the time of learning an entirely new character and their normals, strings, meta, bnbs, punishes, frame data, and a couple matchups would be dissuaded from counterpicking because they need to spend 5 extra mins first to learn the MB inputs are before they start practicing the bnbs.
