I don't think being good at one type of fighter makes you bad at the other, at the same time i can see how being comfortable in one type of fighter can make you nervous at trying the other type, considering how much of a commitment fighting games can be, just be open minded and don't be afraid to get weird with different types of fighting games
I play them both & seen gradual improvement in my play in 2D fighting games. I got the videos to prove it. I have shining examples of other players too. It's really no excuse, but I do see how it can be intimidating.
Still, there's really no reason to not be at a respectable level in any of them.
2D fighters just have tighter combo windows which pushes me away from them. Combos and set ups imo are much easier in 3D fighters as opposed to games like SFV and KOF
@KasumiLover69 because you have to stay committed to playing them. They're heavier on jump ins too. 3D fighters are like that, too, but also have multiple surroundings ie the environments. But most 2D fighters require very good & precise decision making or you lose big damage since you're moving from corner to corner.
Still though, my point is it's better to say that they're not up your alley rather than saying you're good in 2D, bad in 3D or vice versa. It's a lousy statement. I think it's disrespectful to people who can play both genres exceptionally.
Its not a cop out. Certain things click for certain people. 2D fighters have never really clicked for me or have ever been enjoyable. There's also significant differences in the approach of 2D fighters and 3D fighters.
What I'm saying Hazard is that everyone can play it, but it's not for everyone. I'm saying that people like them can easily speak up & challenge everyone who feels the way of the said status. I'm not knocking anyone here who don't like certain fighters, but it's testimonies that can challenge your's.
