Free Step Dodge

Basically me whenever Im learning a new fighting game, I spend all that time in training mode learning combos, setups, frame traps, ranges, etc and feel good about myself, then I hop online and forget everything cause im getting bodied by mf's just mashing or dudes who've been playing the game 4ever, and then i just get depressed

Dead or alive, MK, Tekken and SC... (I suck at every fighter I play)

DOA is only more relaxed because you can basically play with one hand. Even more so with DOA6 with auto combos and +4 supers on block and a hold that holds everything. Even By killing the ground game it made it even more relaxed because that's something you don't have to worry about as much rather you knew it existed or not.

Neutral is still part of the play, and the neutral starts out relaxed, but once people start getting meter, and they start getting hit or pushed to the wall you can start to sweat. because supers, and because side step attack and because break hold all become a factor in the new neutral that is DOA6. It's not 100% 3D. More like a hybrid 3D/2D thing going on in DOA6. but I get what you're saying, In terms of 3D

In a 3D game you have to utilize plus and pressure on a different level since everything tends to be more punishable or unsafe. Meter in a 3D goes against the fundamentals of a 3D game. You're forced to make a read. like Yun v Ryu. Everyone is Yun in 3D. You take a risk to get in. Mofo could wait all day for you to take your + then BB. When you SS in a 3D FG, you still stay in Make a decision. DoA6 you push ppl away

@TricK x DigitaL No disrespect but you brought up Naruto and fighting game in the same sentence. So, this discussion is over. I did enough letting Smash slide but it's obvious that I only see this on FSD. I'm practically pro VF, I have already seen the perfect 3D FG forumula. Definitely isn't Naruto, in the context of ANY FG.

You're either a troll or delusional. You wouldn't stand a chance against a half-dead monkey in any of those games you pointed out. It sounds like you like Naruto because you have 1000 things to cover your weaknesses. We've been around here playing FGs for a loong time and understand what makes a FG rewarding to play, intelligence respected. Go on a journey to find yourself, kid. It's sad.

We don't bend the competitive rules to any other sport. We don't suddenly say, "Hey, the ball didn't go inside the rim, but it hit the net." "Hey, soccer, a ball hits the net. Let's count the score." NoOOoO Next time I take a dump, I'll remember this moment. Since that's all you had to offer.

Isn’t naruto basically a RPG instead of a fighter?

What the hell is this status LOL?

With regards to this status, I'd probably say DOA6 & SCVI. Both games have design elements to them that are just detrimental to the experience, but can still feel good messing around in the lab.
