I’ve been wondering how newer players feel about joining the community when starting out in a new game. Do they feel like they can ask around and get helpful tips? Are they told just to figure it out? Do they not ask for fear of ridicule? I think the community like any community has its toxic members and mentalities, but overall I like to think I have seen a lot more positivity when players, especially newer players, ask questions about whatever game they’re getting into.

There’s so many different archetypes in fighting games that I’m interested to see what everyone’s favorite or least favorite is.

I’ve always loved a rush down mix up character and as a teenager I hated zoners. Now as I’ve gotten older and appreciate more than just “Let’s Fight!” I find myself really enjoying characters that zone and control space with footsies and long reaching normals.

Curious to see everyone’s opinions!

I’ve been sitting down and wanting to do podcast style interviews of every day players and of course more tournament oriented players of their interests in fighting games. So I guess what I’m asking here is a soft question I’ve been super interested in as I’ve gotten older and have stayed with fighting games when the community has had ups and downs and friends have stopped playing these games.

Is it characters, music, art? What is it that keeps you in fighting games? Is it a series? The competitive nature of it? Let’s talk about it!
