Found this wild ass metal placard my grandpa gave me for my 21st birthday that I just kinda set aside and ignored for 15 years that feels like a shitpost out of time

If you see me complaining about current FGC and don't know me, know that I'm not judging from the outside. I've: Won hundreds of tournaments Ran hundreds of locals Commentated FGs professionally for years (including a bunch of EVOs) Won and Top 8'd majors Worked production on TONS of big FGC shows
There is no greater culture than the FGC when it comes to "if they can get a bag...maybe I can to!"
I see that the wider FGC is now defending jwong doing an advertisement for an AI chatbot, classic. Get that bag.
Offkai was depressing as hell man, everyone was having a great time and I didn't interact with a single person all weekend rofl. At least the Densetsu concert was the most amazing show I've ever been to. Worth it for that alone.
I'll be at Offkai Day 1, the Himehina concert, and then the Legends Anew Densetsu.exe concerts today! Legends Anew being at the start of the weekend is wild, I'm gonna use all my energy on that (without regret)
If anybody on here is playing Holodori, add me if you want. I don't even know if adding people does anything though.
AND it's delayed on Xbox? We really are playing all the Lab Zero-era Skullgirls hits!
Avatar Legends: The Fighting Game for Xbox delayed to Sept 3 (the game is releasing tomorrow, July 23) Switch version - launching as Standard Edition only - no crossplay or non-english localization at launch
The Mike Z Avatar thing was the ultimate litmus test of: "How small of an inconvenience would stop you from doing the morally correct thing?" The game isn't released yet, you could still refund preorders, nobody has put thousands of hours into the game, etc. It'd be so easy to just not play it.
I really wish I wasn't so against playing SNK games, because Duck King is one of my favorite characters, and I was actually asking for him in a game again 10 years ago lol KOF 11 was one of my first fighting games ever and he was my first main, haha. RIP
Pokemon announced that UNITE isn't gonna be on the competitive circuit next year, that's a loooot of my work, plus I just really love casting Pokémon events. Very tired of the games I cast dying...
me when I've consumed so many nuts that they have to patch a super boss in against me
Octopath Traveler 0 free update later this year: The team teased a "small part" of the update, which includes the return of a super boss in the Monster Arena, adjusted for those who've grown strong by consuming many Nuts. Also, a new arrival at the Wishvale inn who "hails from another world"...
Feeling this a LOT this week, but the new hot term is "performative". Like who the hell am I performing for? The hundreds of trolls harassing me in my replies? lol
The perversion of the word "woke" by bad actors is only rivaled by how bad "virtue signaling" is used now. It's like the permanent catchphrase of people who just can't conceptually understand why people would care about making any space better. A perfect excuse for bad people to never be good.
IMAGINE IF THE FGC HAD THIS MUCH OF A FUCKING BACKBONE TO STOP PARTNERING WITH EVO, SNK, EWC, ETC. IMAGINE THE BETTER FUTURE WE COULD HAVE
good stuff, good stuff, great read of the room GDQ
We're so excited to be working with SNK to celebrate the 30th Anniversary of Metal Slug with a speedrunning showcase!! Tune in now and stay in touch on their socials! Watch: gdq.gg/live X/Twitter: x.com/METALSLUG_EN FB: facebook.com/METALSLUGOfficial TikTok: tiktok.com/@metalslug_en
If yall want to know one example of why I absolutely don't fuck with socal FGC locals any more, someone I've been friends with at locals for FIFTEEN years recently replied to a Technicals post about me saying "I never knew that guy was such a pussy." LOL
I know I do say it all the time, but Arknights is seriously the best game I've ever played with possibly the best devs I've ever seen. It's made by people who just absolutely love games, and music, and all kinds of art. They put in so much effort for the love of the game alone.
The way that Arknights has world equivalents to so many real life regions, and then does so many stories with so many characters from each one is genuinely the coolest thing ever. Hearing so many accents and seeing character designs from all over makes it such a living world.
an oomfie that I became friends with because we played a mirror match in a Skullgirls bracket, we have a parasoulcial relationship
Sorry I know I complain about what's happening on Twitter a lot, but there's this weird thing happening where off the back of FG difficulty discussion, the wider FGC is all agreeing that frame data isn't important, but this is literally one of the most important and basic aspects of FGs right?
Hate to say it, but Mike Z has definitely won in the court of public opinion. Got sooo many big names in the FGC fighting to defend him now just because Avatar was well received. FGC is so morally cooked rofl, let's just all go to EVO and EWC to play games from a Saudi Prince and Mike Z rofl.
I simply mentioned that Mike Z is working on the Avatar game over on Twitter, and his namesearching lackeys are spamming me with hate replies and messages. On the bright side though
