  When he says learn all your characters moves, he means to the point where you don't really have to think in order to do them. This part can take a while, don't be discouraged.

  Every once in a while I come back to this video, and realize it’s quite possibly my favorite video on this platform

  &quot;You just watched an insanely long video telling you how to play a vide ogame so I think you have at least a little bit of free time.&quot;<br><br>How dare you.

  my fav. fg story is, when i took my ps to my gf moms home - shes going through a though divorce and out of a joke we decided to ask her to play a round of tekken with us... her mom never even held a controller and told us later she only tried it, so she could say she can&apos;t do it/ doesn&apos;t like it and we stop teasing her - she had so much fun just mashing some matches with us, she even asked to play next day. My gf told me she hasn&apos;t heard her laugh like that in months.

  Fighting Games are therapy for those that suffer from being pissed off from team competitive gaming.

  &quot;If you&apos;re playing Ken and you can&apos;t shoryuken, you&apos;re only using half the character.&quot;<br><br>I feel personally attacked.

  Two years ago, I watched this video on the heels of a decent FighterZ fascination that, due to the circumstances of my work life, I flexed a bit at the very casual level and didn&apos;t play for very long because I didn&apos;t have the time. Now I&apos;ve come back to watch it again. I&apos;ve been out of work for a while, after that very same job landed me in the hospital (more than once) and left me with almost a year of nerve damage, during which time I slowly descended into and slowly crawled back out of being bedridden.<br><br>For a time, I couldn&apos;t turn on a light switch. I couldn&apos;t pick up a drink, lift a remote, couldn&apos;t even grab the edge of a blanket and drag it up over my legs with my right hand, not for many months. It&apos;s been a long road to recovery, and I&apos;m still not at 100%, but heading into this Christmas season I&apos;ve bought Tekken 7 on sale and started my first fighting game in quite some time. I haven&apos;t even played a match yet, not even against the AI, I&apos;ve just spent many hours of a few days in training trying to relearn how controllers work. But goddamn, I won&apos;t lie; getting to where I could reliably and continuously land the Hunting Hawk combo almost made me cry.<br><br>I just wanted to say, I appreciate this now more than ever, and once more this video has helped remind me of why I&apos;ve come to love fighting games over my life, and keep coming back to them. I&apos;m anxiously awaiting my first online match where I hop in against a California professional Yoshimitsu with 8k hours and a foundation of 300 ms lag easy, it&apos;s gonna be fun.

  I love just spending so many hours with my friends playing fighting games. Whenever we all collectively find a game we love we’ll play it for months on end almost every day

  &quot;If SF is classical music, then Smash is jazz&quot; Thank you for this analogy. I&apos;ll be using this often.
