DI, ASDI, character weights, no buffer, L cancels and tech lockouts, all of these things make melee something most new fighting games and platform fighters simply can not be, this isn't good OR bad, but it's true! Bums me out to see people call it "outdated"..

Do you have a favorite "bad" traditional roguelike of the ones you've played?

No one is going to ever do frame perfect tech consistently every game with:
- The pressure to win
- Potential pressure from the crowd
- Mental exhaustion accumulated from thinking about doing frame perfect inputs

Part of the fun of fighting games is seeing who's mental fortitude is stronger IMO

It is so, so rare to see developers who show their passion for video games in this way. I won't blame others for not doing the same but it's really empowering to see a developer with this perspective.

I think there was a trend of calling the card companies themselves, more big pushes that disrupt the companies are probably the way to go but organizing enough voices to yell at them again seems hard to do alone :/

eventually the only games you'll get to make are those that comply with pussy christofascist sensitivity guidelines and we will all be cooked
