[@BrJPGameplay]

If you ask me why I find fighting games cool, it's a simple case of "do combo"

[@gnerkus]

I think it's also the signature game mechanic of a fighting game.

[@wudly9195]

Executing a sick combo you have been working on is akin to getting multiple flic headshots in a FPS . The feeling is amazing

[@sirianrocker]

And my favorite is finding a way to stop your enemies attacks (especially after being bodied for so long)

[@CoralCopperHead]

I'm in the same boat, but aside from platform fighters, I'm horrible at fighting humans who can switch tactics on the fly, and fighting the AI in those games is always just a case of "figure out how they react to your buttons and with which moves because they're always going to do the same thing in the same situation." Fortunately, Character Action games mitigate the poor, predictable AI by throwing groups at you, and they're just as focused on the combo games as Fighters do, so at least I can throw myself at stuff like Devil May Cry and not get bored. It helps that the most basic of combos in that series start firmly in the "that was friggin' awesome" category and more advanced ones only get cooler. Vergil's Judgement Cut chains are literally just spamming out the same zoning move and it's still fun to watch.

[@dolphinboi-playmonsterranc9668]

Well there was a strange application for barrel bombs with the monster nibelsnarf. When he charges at you with his mouth open, he can swallow bombs you placed previously, so you could position yourself in front of those bombs and give yourself an opening to lay some smackdown on it. Even fishing it out of the sand to get a free knockdown. I love creative uses of items like that. Like bomb throwing in Monster Hunter Rise, which can prolong your airtime from the wirebugs.

[@AlynRapi]

my favorite thing ever is when i find a new action platformer and it has fighting game commands, a la castlevania or odin sphere

[@Artersa]

Perhaps I’m taking this too seriously, but I think it’s a reach to say that Street Fighter influenced some of this more than it being convergent evolution. Movement and competitive context exists in pong, even. Careful vs careless strats exist for sure. Shotgunners and Snipers representing rush/camp play styles would stem more from paint ball and the actual interactions there than SF2, IMO. Oki being spawn camping is a reach as well... I’d say stacking of enemy statuses in Resident Evil 4 (controlling movement with headshots and melee etc)would be a better fit. Idk, fighting games are cool but convergence is definitely a thing.

[@Silidirian]

To add to the Monster Hunter "wakeup punish", clutch claw made it so you could bomb for wakeup, then latch on with claw, flinch shot the monster into a wall for even more damage, then get a full damage window on the knocked down monster, before then further going in for a mount. Hell, some people go to extra lengths (looking at you bowgun users) to chain a forced sleep effect for a second round of bomb wakeup, into a paralyze, into a mount, and finally maybe a 3rd round of sleep bombs, maybe a KO. The true art of beating someone when they're down

Jigglypuff rest setups in a nutshell

[@rin2012]

this is so true, i find my playstyle is almost always consistent between games. i play rushdown, combo heavy characters like seth, chipp and lancelot, and in shooters i tend to play with a high rpm smg to quickly run in and kill people as fast as possible. in action games i always use the fastest type of weapon, and always wear light equipment so i can move and dodge swiftly even at the cost of defense. it’s actually pretty cool to think about how this stuff translates between games.

[@CoralCopperHead]

I usually rushdown in fighters (not that I play many, but when I do, it's rushdown), but in shooters I'm firmly in the camp that uses a mix of prediction and zoning. That said, it doesn't help that I mostly play Doom, and flooding corridors with rockets just in case someone walks around the corner is one of the most solid tactics available.

[@koloraider]

These aren't unique concept introduced by fighting games but just an aspect of the competitive nature of humans, look at any martial arts, sports, or the way people wage wars and you find the same concepts. For inspiration, most games take inspiration from their real life counterparts or from media of similar genres, say how most shooters take from war stories, war movies, or even from other shooter games. Competitive games just share similar concepts because they draw from the same pool of ideas, real life competition and conflict. Edit: Just a note that this comment is incredibly rude and while not meant to be, is easily seen as such so my bad. Just wanted to make sure people keep their views broad.

Genuinely disappointed you didn't talk about animation cancel at all. I'd argue that it defines the fighting game genre moreso than any other point you talked about.

[@Ramsey276one]

Even games like Bayonetta have it!

[@rouge-ish324]

In a lot of Shooting games, you can animation cancel reloads too, usually by melee or swapping weapons before the animation ends

[@lanternno8491]

You can animation cancel in a lot of Mobas (more complex chars are based on this) and in Overwatch. It's not something unique. And it's really important for comboing.

[@KaitouKaiju]

Even platformers have animation canceling Classic example being slash cancelling in Ninja Gaiden which came out a full 4 years before Street Fighter 1 That's really more of a video game thing than a fighting game thing

[@CoralCopperHead]

@@lanternno8491 The point was to talk about concepts that were introduced in or popularized by fighting games, then carried on to other genres. Animation cancelling is absolutely something to talk about here.

[@kid14346]

"Not everyone can do an optimal combo the same way you can pick up a fps and shoot your weapon." That is like comparing doing a combo to pressing the punch button. Yeah you can fire your weapon but learning to do it optimally is the key thing...

[@eddieconversi9295]

What hes saying is if you are good at it in 1 game you are good at it in all shooters like shroud, but the same thing doesnt carry over game to game in fighting games

I was thinking of that, too. I suppose one could argue it’s closer to chess, but I think the deliberate RNG of Pokémon causes the feel to lean much more towards the energetic back and forth of a fighting game, just where you COMMAND your fighters instead of playing as them directly

i think there should be more emphasis on the similarities between fighting games and other games so that they look less daunting to new players. explaining them like this can help contextualize what youre trying to do in a fighter since fighting games are so very bad at teaching you these things with anything other than the video game equivalent of homework

Excellent vid! Ive been thinking about this concept heavily the last few days, Fighting Games aren't my favourite genre, but man do I respect the genre.

It is the defacto genre encapsulating all of the core multiplayer mechanics and concepts developed over the years and implemented and tweaked into other Multiplayer Genres.

Ah yes the complex art of driving famously taking it's inspiration from Street Fighter 2. Who could forget the famous quote from Ayrton Senna him self "block this overhead."

[@AnthanKrufix]

I prefer to think of Okizeme from the defender's standpoint. I think the most appealing part of it is successfully defending in that situation when you're at a disadvantage. A good other genre comparison is forcing your way though a guarded chokepoint in an FPS... If a Demoman in TF2 has stickies in the doorframe, but you peek through then immediately dart back so he detonates them on nothing.

[@TheJum]

I’m surprised you didn’t talk about flinch, it is a pretty big parallel between fighting games and shooters. It’s why “getting the drop” is so important, because the first one to get hit is at a huge disadvantage. It also sort of translates as people using automatics as basically rushdown/combo characters. That said, what I would like to see incorporated into other games from fighting games would be something like frame data/priority. I think, maybe with something like an RPG, guessing what your opponent might do and choosing the right attack in order to “ move first” and do extra damage could be a really neat system. I wonder if there is something like that out there or not...

[@CoralCopperHead]

Priority is a big thing in Skies of Arcadia, Grandia, Final Fantasy X and Lord Of The Rings: The Third Age to name a few.

[@japeape8381]

kind of surprised you didnt go even harder on the monster hunter comparison with okizeme, since monsters have an actual knockdown state separate from sleeping that you can actually chain by applying damage with the right timings. ive heard some sns mains actually refer to doing this as okizeme like in fighting games, since it follows the same concept of using wakeup animations to do as much damage as possible while making sure they dont escape the loop.

[@sergiovillanueva3108]

Came for the title stayed for the KOF background music playing in the video. Hype for KOF15 tho!

[@idontcheckmynotifications]

Okizeme exists in beat-em-ups. They call it OTG (short for On The Ground). If you're going to bring up racing games- and that might have sounded rude, not how I mean it- don't forget CTR. Way deeper movement than modern Mario Kart, a bunch of nifty exploits and inputs taxing enough that many remap the buttons (holding back and break are both huge parts of the control which is both more physically and mentally intense). Plus hit a wall once and you're done, it's extremely tight due to that. And gotta time drifts more specifically. Mario Kart Wii is the most technical and deep MK at least for core control. Air control, spindrifts, delay/soft drift, inside drift, chain wheelies and drifts, low tricks, etc. The items have many more specifics than in other entries as well.

[@Quackajack]

While I enjoyed your video and comparisons I would argue that the quality criteria you're describing also were not invented in fighting games. Take a look at soccer for example. - You have reading your opponent (do they go left or right, which player will they pass the ball to, etc.) - You have reaction (a keeper catching the ball) - You have oki (which is probably close to a situation where you're in the offense with an advantage say 3 players vs. 2) - You have execution (aiming with the ball, running, catching, etc.) - Only the super is something that I think is maybe video games exclusive as it is a pretty abstract concept. All these skill layers are present in a lot of games since a long time. But you may be right that they were translated best into the digital space by fighting games. Anyway, nice video :)

[@alvinmercado6305]

ehh Ill be honest I feel like only the overwatch super meter and dark souls/ monster hunter comparisons were the only one that demonstrated the relationship well. the other comparisons felt like reaching

[@alx0tl]

The sniper thing was a bigger stretch than what your average zoner could do, but other than that good video, I like the comparisons with monster hunter, it makes sense that capcom would draw inspiration from fighting games for monster hunter and that is an interesting idea that may not be obvious at first

[@MissingMeep]

I am always on either end. Snipe or boom boom. Then in fighting games it is zone, or unga. I like shotos, as with most I can do both.

[@FruitSmax]

i'm surprised that the one time you didn't mention r6 was when talking about okizeme, taking advantage of downed players (especially by using them as bait for a revive) is relatively important

[@TNB12]

I think bringing up Monster Hunter is a really good idea, having been a fan of the series for a long time now I can tell the game design has a lot of DNA in common with fighting games. You talked about Oki applied to monsters' sleep state, but I think it's also interesting that Oki is also a thing the player has to worry about. The game allows you to stay on the ground in your invincibility state and delay your wakeup if a monster is about to try and attack you, and sometimes monsters will deliberately set up Oki on you like in the case of the Arch Tempered Nergigante fight, where it would always try to meaty you with a flying slam after scoring a knockdown on you. Hunters also have plenty of wakeup options, most commonly rolling away which is available to do as soon as your invincibility from knockdown ends, kinda like backdashing, or blocking if your weapon allows it. MHGU also uses straight up fighting game supers in its core gameplay with Hunter Arts, which can also be broken down into various different types like fast activation invicible supers like Round Slash, unsafe big damage supers like Spinning Meteor, Install supers like Demon Riot, or utility supers like Absolute Readiness. The whole series has always felt like one big PvE fighting game to me and I love it because of that.

[@Viviantoga]

This is closely related to a question I've been asking around for several months now, hold on a min, let me find and c/p it here... " A lot of characters in fighting games can be directly compared to others from other franchises, like calling Potemkin from Guilty Gear a "grappler" or referring to someone as "the Ryu of this game." This shorthand is very convenient and relatively straightforward when limited to fighting games, but it leaves me wondering, but what about beyond? The initial question I had imagined was "which Street Fighter 2 character is Red Deck Wins, and who is Junk Ramp?" and from there, it opened up a large can of worms. For example: - How does comparing a team composition in KoF compare to weapon variants in Splatoon (i.e. Base Roller vs Tony Kensa Roller)? - Is the difference between Sol Badguy and Ragna the Bloodedge similar to the difference between playing drums in Rock Band versus drums in Guitar Hero (and/or Taiko no Tatsujin if applicable??)? - Should the AWP be the weapon of choice for Bowser mains? - In an UMvC3 MorriDoom team, who is Boardwalk and who is Park Place? - Is Mitsurugi a T-block or an L-block? - Can Bulbasaur, Squirtle, and Charmander be properly sorted into Timmy, Johnny, and Spike categories? - What's the house rule on wobbling in Uno? These kinds of questions have been plaguing me for a couple months and I would love to hear your input on how best to address them. I believe that there is a coherent vocabulary that could be developed to make comparisons like these much easier to discuss, but so far from my experience it seems to be a poorly-explored subject. So far, the most my friends have been able to determine is that Magneto/Storm/Psylocke is the RDW of MvC2, AWPs are any grapplers who have to rely 720 command grabs, Dan is a shitty midrange deck with a win condition that doesn't actually exist, and the Dante/Vergil non-TAC infinite combo that runs out the timer before it can knock out any healthy opponent character is equivalent to a mill deck. "

[@KaitouKaiju]

Fun fact. Boardwalk and Park place are actually some of the worst property since they aren't landed on that often. Red is best.

[@Londoniusthe3rd]

Monster Hunter is fucking loaded with Fighting Game concepts when you actually stop and think about it. Especially in Monster Hunter Rise. The “Wakeup Game” exists very prominently in MH, as using the I-frames from being knocked down has won countless hunts. Not to mention in MH Rise, you can use the Wirefall ability to quickly cancel the wakeup animations by launching in a specific direction (similar to a tech roll). However, if this is done carelessly, it can be just as dangerous as getting up normally. Conversely, many monsters have attacks that are seemingly designed to punish badly timed getups or mindless uses of the Wirefall ability, suspiciously similar to a meaty. 👀👀👀 Punishing, Spacing, and Reads are all big parts of the series as well, but I feel like they’re a little more obvious...

[@darthvaderreviews6926]

The Monster Hunter comparison to fighting games is actually deeper than a lot of people realize. While 99% of fighting game characters are more complex than a weapon in Monster Hunter, the 14 different types do legitimately have high skillcaps. I have played the series for thousands of hours now and am still improving.

In monster hunter the monsters can literally oki you, and you can’t block with some weapons lol you have recovery frames after a monster lands an attack on you, and those recovery frames get worse the stronger the attack you got struck with is.

I think this vid should've been called something different, bcs it's not really obvious if it's inspired by SF2 and these concepts don't really seem like fighting games came up with them. Some of these examples were really smart like the oki in Monster Hunter, but I don't think Spawn Camping and Oki are even remotely similar. Also there were player vs player games that weren't fighters before SF2, so the movement example doesn't really make much sense. I still think your vids are good, but sometimes it feels like you're making stretches to make your point, which is valid, but can be explained in better ways. Don't want to be mean though.

[@eddventure6214]

While its true some of them are stretches, Its impossible to know what exactly took inspiration from SF2 and what didnt, so the real purpose of the video is just to exemplify how fighting game concepts are paralleled in other genres, not necessarily how fighting games inspired stuff in shooters, cause simply put, we dont know.
