Like most things in life, learning fighting games is not complex, but it IS difficult. Almost anything you want to improve at in life has a simple defined way to improve at, but that doesn't make it any easier. Fighting game content to teach new players make it less complex, but you still gotta go through the difficulty of learning.

They think because they are plat in a shooter game that it's easy, even though there are so many tiers of players better than you. Like you could potentially come up against a guy you LITERALLY cannot kill, he's so much better than you, and with games with low TTK that seems like it'd be impossible, but it is. I played R6S against a streamer (former pro) once and he literally wiped out my team twice by himself. The rest of his team was our level but because we were playing at like 6:00 am he was put into my game and he literally took 3 people peeking at the same time to kill. The game was close, funnily enough because the rest of his team was definitely scaled worse than my team to compensate but in fighting game terms it's like as if we needed 3 players on the screen to beat 1 guy. Skill is such a hard thing to quantify, but at the end of the day if you're bad at fighting games, there are probably about a million other people just as bad as you. Now if the game is underpopulated, that can be an issue ... that said, playing against better players DOES make you better FASTER. Eventually you will learn to not get tagged by their stuff and once you are able to beat 1 person who's really good, you'll be able to beat others slightly worse than him even though they may have different habits and such.

@@GriFFonRec4 I actually think underpopulation on games is one of the main factors that make fighting games less approachable than other, more popular genres.

I think the disconnect is that you do a lot of work to simplify things for new players. Like telling them to pick whoever they want, telling them they don't need to worry about frame data at the beginning, and telling them they should just focus on experimenting and having fun. This leads people to think that you're acting as if the games are easy and you don't have tons to think about, when in reality its the opposite. A lot of your content tries to make fighting games as approachable as possible for people, specifically because you know how hard they are.
@t4d0W3 жыл бұрын
I still don't find the correlation of things you want to like in a fighting game (play whatever char you want, not caring about frame data, just dicking around) to making it out that the game is 'easier' that way. Hell everyone has different ways of disseminating information and applying it in the game. Then factor in how fast an individual adapts to their newfound situations. The only thing that changes is at the very least is if you play the game your way to start which leads to being fun, then its easier to look past the obvious factors like trying to quantify skill/rank/hours spent/losses to victories. And focus more on the process of getting to know the game more.

If I have been playing COD since big red one back on the old PlayStation, I have been playing COD for 10 years or more so whenever a new game comes out I've already been playing a game where aiming is necessary to be decent. However if a COD player picks up a fighting game for the first time, its an entirely different experience and you are therefore forced to learn an absolutely new skill. People don't realize that some games are old franchises that they have been playing for years and any newer version that comes out they already have prior gameplay knowledge from the previous game like COD or halo etc. Then a guy plays sfv and has never touched a fighting game ever is gonna feel like its this gatekeeping craziness that its not.

Shit after playing DCS and RTS FG's feels pretty fuckin manageable once you know the basic concepts and have played a few games a lot of hours

So what I'm getting from this video is Sajam thinks "Yakuza is easy and if you complain about it, it's just your scrub mindset."

I'm teaching all my friends how to play LOL. I call it a point and click adventure. They think it's 4d chess.

League is really hard to get to a basic level where you can actually play the game decently I think it took me at least a year or two before i played with any intentionality but it took me over 4 years of playing before i got any idea of what i was actually doing And 6 years before i got any good But I quit since because i kind of hate the game now

The moment I saw that you move by clicking in league of legents I instantly pressed alt f4 and uninstalled it. My brain just doesnt work that way

fighting games are uniquely more difficult than other popular competitive genres for 2 main reasons, 1- it's a 1vs1 30seconds avg bursts of gameplay, meaning there is no cushion to skill difference gap, it's painfully apparent when an opponent is better. 2- More importantly, it has a very small relative population size, this alone is why fighting games is way harder to get into than league for instance, even though they're both infinitely complex. In league, even as someone who never touched a moba, you can get to a 50% winrate in a week, meaning your games are FAIR. In fighting games, the only game where this is remotely achievable is SF6 currently, and in 6 months time it becomes exponentially harder. THIS is why fighting games are "hard", difficulty due to mismatched skill level is simply not fun nor fair. Learning to aim is hard, learning wave management is hard, learning combos is hard, but that type of difficulty is organic and enjoyable if done against equally skilled opponents. TL;DR fighting games are HARDER than other popular genres because the small population size turns beginner into punching bags as a welcome. Whereas you can pick up fortnite/league/overwatch..etc.. and have EVEN matches in a week. Losing to MASSIVE skill gap is not competitive fun.

Didn’t expect Sajam to talk about yakuza. Love all of the games and yeah. The games are pretty old but I think games 0 and up look really good. Just my opinion tho

This is a gamer channel but the topic is very, very real life and important especially in the context of last month (and really, the last 4.5 years in america). People make shit up.

"Fighting games are easy," get outta here, internet. They might be "Easy to learn, Hard to Master" but even that's stretching it. I mean fuck, I'm not terrible at Strive, I'm coming up on 3 months in Celestial, but I do not know how to kara cancel moves as Potemkin. That shit may as well be another languge. But if I liked Potemkin like that, I might want to put in the effort and master it. But I don't. And that's just one technique from one character. I can go on about how I *still* fuck up meaty grabs with Nago who I actually main and have since day 1.

It's because people play league and csgo casually as fuck and think they know the game so when they hear 'fighting games are about as hard as learning a competitive game' and think "oh, I play a competitive eSports game and that's easy"
