    As a dude who loved fighting games when he was younger(30+ now lol) and only getting back into it now (AC+R) because of rollback, this hits me hard. It's incredibly frustrating to learn a fighting game when you get bodied by someone far better than you and you know absolutely nothing about what options you have to respond especially when you are up against a Zappa player while playing Order Sol, unlike a FPS game where you can still learn how to quickly duck into cover or choose to commit to a firefight and if you lose, you just respawn.
    My winrate is at a horrendous 30% out of like...150+ games and it still feels incredibly frustrating to keep on the grind because I feel like I barely learnt anything from my losses even when I spend time labbing, reading up guides, or watching videos. Combined with a community that at times can be outright hostile or gatekeep and you have a genre that basically discourages anyone from wanting to continue playing.
    I still enjoy playing AC+R to some degree despite the losing and being a salty motherfucker about it though, since its been a long time since I picked up a fighting game. Thanks, Jiyuna.

    I remember being a pot monster back in the mid-late 2000s, going to weeklies to pitch in my 5 dollars to the pot and be a part of the community. The pot went to feeding everyone at the venue anyway and people were organizing events at a loss week after week so I was more than glad to go 0-2 every week and pitch in. The only people who would trash someone for their losses is someone who has never been a part of any real fighting game community. Not a subreddit or twitch chat, but an actual community of players and organizers. The Melty music started making me so nostalgic and emotional too because it was Tsukihime that introduced me to Melty which introduced me to the FGC and hearing you talk about this with that music hit me right in the feels. This is why Core-A Gaming is the best FGC channel on youtube.

    That's how I learned to play fighting games, and I generally struggle with a new game despite being in the community for years now, but I will keep going until the gameplay kicks off with me and I have a blast. Nothing is more gratifying to me than the feeling of getting good in a fighting game.

I’ve been trying trying to remind myself that I’m still learning but it’s hard trying to stay positive. It’s nice to hear from somebody else that win:loss ratios don’t really matter. So, thanks for making this video. I’m going to keep at it!

    I wanted to learn fighting games starting with DNF Duel. It looked cool, fast, with simple mechanics for beginners. I pre-ordered it, and since release I've played it for 23-24 hours and with 300 matches played, I won like 80. Some days was like 60 losses in a row. And sometimes I got guys that so aggressive and learned some long combos, they just lock me in the corner and get me annihilated. Yesterday I just flipped, when another Swift Master just locked me in the corner, throw at me so much pressure and I just sit there and don't know what to do. Any attempt from me to do something just ends with my face being splashed on the floor. It was my 20th loss in a row yesterday and I just couldn't play anymore. I want to play this game, I want to learn fighting games in general, they are cool and when you do something that clicks and you do at least short combo, that feeling is amazing. But after that another man comes and give you 60-70% damage in one combo. I have depression after those games. I'm still gonna play DNF Duel, I want to get better at this game, but not sure if I'm really will have fun in this anymore. I know, that you will lose if you are inexperienced, like a lot, but it's still doesn't make it any easier. Sorry for braggin, but I just don't know where else I can say this and not be mocked for my 220 losses

    I think many people don't take into account that it's especially rough in old fighting games. There's often no matchmaking in place so they get matched up with veterans that have 10x their playtime and experience.
    There's not that many streams or even guides you can watch for those games, so you're often just learning by yourself or asking for advices from others. It's rough man.
    A constant influx of new players are what keeps old fighting games like AC alive. Cheer them up and welcome them to the community. You'll be proud of them when they stick around and actually become a veteran themselves a few years down the line :)

    I don’t mind losing at all. I love playing these games. But I hate how people try to show me the negative side when I myself stay positive about the losses.
    I just wanna enjoy and learn along the way.

    I remember when I first started playing fighting games online, I was obsessed about my win rates. I had to have at least over a 50% win ratio, otherwise I would feel like absolute trash. Thankfully, I managed to grow out of that phase and into thinking I'm just trash in general, hah.
    But yeah, I'd gladly continue being a loser if it meant I could spread the love for some of these niche fighters I like but I just don't really play fighters anymore, much less go online. So I can only really support the other losers, and winners, for the small communities that still exist for them.

    I remember fighting against a Twitch Streamer and I was more upset that his Twitch chat was roasting me rather than I actually losing. It was on DBFZ, and I transferred from Console to PC so it didn't help when everyone thought I was a genuine white square rather than someone who transferred, haha. I was so self conscious about not only my losses now, but also fighting against Streamers so much that I looked on Twitch constantly just to avoid big names and not being made fun of. Its crazy how we can also change our mindset over time while playing Fighting Games.
    There's getting that drive to improve, and then there's lighting it the HELL up. Doing both takes a while, and so does learning to value how much you've learned rather than the L you took. But man, when you do, it feels GREAT. I'm not great at any of the Fighting Games I play, but learning and winning feels so much more fun. I have much respect for anyone new trying fighting games. It's hard for a lot of people to learn something new and unfamiliar, and a lot of people put pressure on themselves when starting off. I think that's why I always love trying to teach my friends, they're on their grind.

    I feel like I've been hiding in single player modes for a minute, can't let the losses linger and learn from it. Though I will say getting hate mail after a loss is uncalled for like wtf. I'm still baffled by getting that. Anyways, thanks for the shout out for the losers, we all start there in the fgc it feels like. I mean maybe there are just people who have it down instantly but I'm always expecting to lose, it's the hope of a win, learn, get better that keeps going and all that jazz

    I have made it my goal for this year to pass Silver/B rank in a fighting game. As an intermediate player I tend to get excited in a game (SF5, Skullgirls, etc.), hit ranked and then once i make it to Silver, i hit a brick wall. Its happened in 2 games for the past few years. I'd lose for days, get discouraged, then quit.
    This year, GBVSR is my game and I just hit B rank last week. The wall has hit me again and I'm internalizing the losses and learning to improve, it still is discouraging when i get 10 losses and 1 win after my sessions.
    Seeing this video really helped me out, I'm gonna keep at it. Im determined to beat the Silver wall this year. Thanks man, gonna lose and get better!

  • @voraminfantes5264

    Hey man, thanks for this. I've been kind of getting burnt out on the ranked ladder of some fighting games recently. I suffer from an admittedly mild case of cerebral palsy, and so despite doing execution drills every time I play, and having played some games for over a hundred hours(I know that's tiny in the grand scheme of things), it's still going to take me thousands more drills to get even basic stuff like dps consistent. My win rate is fixed in the 40 percents, and some times it dips even into the 30 percents, and you know, I'll get on a losing streak and get frustrated as I mess up my anti air input and get t-bagged by a Bronze Akuma after, again, over 100 hours of play. I feel really bad at the game for my amount of play time, and this discourages me, so thanks again for the positive reinforcement.

    I've literally had 30 games straight with different players where I was literally a punching bag for them to practice combos.
    Until I came across a guy who went slow and gave me some room to try things out. we played for like 25 games and although I obviously lost, it was rewarding to actually be able to play.

    @simongotborg3866 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I think a lot of people, especially competitive players, focus way to much on the top and thinking about the stats for a moment is a great reality check. I once heard a player saying that "anyone with less than 50% win rate should quite the game" without realizing that if they did his win rate would soon drop below 50% as well. Every Joe Shmoe who drops the game has a ripple effect and the community is poorer for it. It's the width of the foundation that supports the height of the peak. Without the people who tolerate the struggles and keep going the community would collapse in weeks.
    The ability to accept a loss and keep trying is not just mandatory to get good, it's the beautiful fighting spirit that defines the FGC.
