Watched this RussianBadger video maybe a week or two ago and I was hooked the whole journey. I originally didn't plan on watching the vid in one sitting, but it was too much a joy to watch and reminded me of how me and my brothers used to play video games together when I was younger.

[@Groog01]

"Just push buttons and have fun, learn the game later." This is the mentality I took when playing Dragon Ball FighterZ for the first time, just push buttons, have fun, and then learn later. Even then I was only able to play the game at my friends house so pretty much all my learning was from looking up moves between matches, then testing them during a fight and hope for the best. Most fun I've ever had playing a fighting game and it remains my favorite to this day.

[@spiderraccoon7869]

That was super fun. The original video is great, but man I loved hearing those stories and I’d be down to hear more of them.

Something about hearing you light up about fighting games and sharing your various stories about them made this just such a fun reaction to watch 😃

The fact that you said "I talk so much" That's good. A lot of reactions just sit there and stare blankly until the end of the reaction. This is the first video I've seen of your channel and I love that you actually TALK and REACT. 10/10

[@revengehunter0184]

I like how peaceful and friendly this reaction was. Enjoying learning the game sounds fun. And I can confirm it's hard to learn from scratch, especially when friends have the fighting game history, and I have the racing game history. So damn different...

Badger and his friends are such a fun group to listen to. I've watched most his stuff hopefully you watch more of his stuff.

[@valashar5313]

Badger's ability to rapidly learn games (provided he has someone actually teaching him the game and not just running bits) is downright frightening. As a side note, when (not if) you continue doing Badger videos on any game that is NOT Rainbow 6: Siege make sure you watch the first one he posted first, especially if it's a game you're not familiar with. His first video in a series is almost always a Baby's First Cliff Notes no bullshit overview of the game. That and his later videos in a given series tend to build up on each other, in particular his TABG and Payday 2 series.

[@D3stinyDrag0n]

[@killercross9929]

Funny thing: Badger made a video for Battlefield 2042 however in the midst of making it his previous pc BURST INTO FLAMES. it was on his social media because while gathering footage for the vid, his pc couldn’t Handle the game and at some point of him recording, his PC just spat out flames and he had to build a new one that was WAAAAAY better! (Which led him to sponsor them in the vid as a way of saying thanks)

[@alexvirgoe4482]

1:05:50 I feel that story. I misunderstood it at first. I thought it was about the dev thinking some character was too strong because one pro was beating every other pro with just one character. But no. I think what shes saying is that Dev got beaten PERSONALLY and got HEATED AF and nerfed the character. IVE DONE THAT BEFORE TO A DEV. It wasn't a fighting game. It was a Starcraft 2 custom arcade game. But it was SO CRINGE. I tried my ass off to barely survive. If he just pushed and wasn't playing like a coward. I would have died. His armies got me low and I wouldn't have time to heal. Now my character is completely helpless against his character. He has the "ice cobra" which can freeze things solid and permanently paralyze someone if they don't stop attacking. The only counter is items. But my character was Android which I upgraded into the T-800 form which cant use items. But it was naturally immune to the freezing. So he had to use other abilities against me. We both heal quickly out of combat. And we both have active self heals too. But bro was terrible and could only think that the freeze was all you needed to be good at ice cobra. So now T-800 can't defend itself and is doomed. None of that matters though. Their map was stolen from someone else and their community died after the OG creater made a better version of the game that these shitty devs stole.
