- Thank you for checking out my video! If you like what I do and would like to support me to do more of it, and you have some spare cash, consider donating on Ko-fi (which will also get you access to my Discord server): ko-fi.com/frum... Is Melty Blood Type Lumina good for fighting game beginners? Well, I am one - so I gave the game a go to find out. I love that French Bread have continued to support the game with new characters released for free(!!). But what's it like to play, especially if you don't know what you're doing in a fighting game? Watch the video to find out.
Thank you to @tonyfighter2 for recommending this game in the comments of a prior video.
Leave a comment below if you have any recommendations for a game you'd like me to look at through the eyes of a fighting game beginner!
RIP the mighty pig.
This game is the definition of the phrase: "Easy to play. Hard to master."
I enjoyed how you described your first win. Watching it play out was actually so ridiculous it made me lol. 🤣🤣🤣
Haha thanks 😅 I like a silly moment in a game every now and then!!
Melty has one of the most dedicated community in all of the fgc, we take all the number we can get 🙌
You can turn off rapid beat!
What a great in depth video, you really did this game justice. You really have a talent for making these videos 👏🏼 also thank you for the shoutout at the end 🤙🏼
Thanks mate I appreciate it!!
It's really heartwarming watching a casual try out a fighting game and having fun with it. Glad you enjoyed it! It's always great watching two strangers goof around in online modes.
Playing this makes me happy. I enjoy watching high-level melty tournament play on TH-cam. I’m happily surprised to learn the tsukihime remake is getting an English localization next year! Thanks for this video
Thank you! I really like watching fighting game tournaments even if I can’t follow everything happening in the games - I definitely need to watch some for type lumina!
@@frumiousgamingI recommend it. When either Makoto Fox or Majin Obama are doing commentary, you can learn a lot about the game’s more nuanced mechanics, even if you don’t understand all the jargon they use in the beginning. This week I started to watch more tournament play of the other modern French Bread game, Under Night In-Birth. I couldn’t appreciate it (aesthetically) as much as Type Lumina initially, but I’m into it-it’s core mechanic impacts the game in interesting ways-and I’m excited to play its sequel in January
@@oyoyoyo7624 me too, I’m definitely going to give under night 2 a try!
In defense of the A B C button thing, using console specific button would be more confusing as the here is no Square, Triangle, or circle buttons in Xbox and PC and with people having unique controls setups ESPECIALLY on stick or hit/mix box just having the A B C inputs makes it universal and u can actually follow along to an online tutorial, something u will definitely need as a new player once
u've understood the game at its basics
Yeah that is a fair point, its more an issue for the total beginner in like their first hour playing the game
ideally a toggle between both settings should do the job. Specially if its easy to see it and use. Like it does in tutorial for replay or moving to next stage.
@@MokonaModokiES If by toggle u mean chosing between A B C and Square Triangle Circle then the problem stays a the same because almost all new players will pick the one based on their console and be more confused when having to learn notations.
A B C D, 1 2 3 4, P K G, and LP LK MP MK HP HK are fine as it is because players don't take long to understand them even for those who've never played anything but DND. It sounds easier to add console buttons but it makes it worse in the end for those who got use to them. It's like learning to drive in the US and then in the UK, it's unfamiliar and wonky and we have enough of that type of problem learning combos on both sides of the screen as a beginner to begin with. Don't even get me started on having to learn num-pad at the same time. Official notations are the best way to start. "Better to learn a language early than to learn a new one later".
The type moon universe is a huge mix of many, many different things happening with loose bits connecting it all story wise, but having a general setting and mechanics that rarely change, but get added to quite often (Fate, Garden of Sinners, Tsukihime, Witch on the Holy Night, and all of their spinoffs).
Mages and magic are extremely prevalent (with many mages being assholes or at minimum having self interest at the forefront), vampires are here every now and again, weird supernatural things keep cropping up in general, and people die fairly regularly, either with little fanfare or in some of the most gruesome ways possible. Their mainline games/visual novels come from the Fate franchise, which also comes with their most varied characters, story, and financial success through gacha games ala "Collect the heros and villains, all the while spending way too much money finding your waifu or husbando."
Stumbled upon your vid. I think this was a very good overview of what the game has to offer and was interesting to hear about your experience as someone with limited prior fighting game knowledge. Already a big fan of French bread, but was nice seeing that you had a relatively good experience. You're correct that most of the playerbase is on PC, with a sizable minority having it on Playstation.
If anyone that finds this video in the future picks up the game, I would recommend you get it on one of those two platforms and like mr Frumious Gaming discovered, that you do not go through the general tutorial all at once. Doing some and then playing while trying to implement the concepts you learned, even if its against a cpu or training dummy, then going back will not only keep it more engaging, but will help with internalizing the concepts.
One thing that is not mentioned understandably so as it is not part of the game package itself, is that for a lot of fighting games there are generally some community discord servers where you can find games and get advice. Most of these servers from my experience will also have beginner matchmaking channels to help you find someone who is also starting out or may be more similar in skill than you may find just going into ranked outside of sales or other times that give a relatively big influx of new players.
as a noob in this game, i appreciate this video
I left melty blood for my beloved under night. but this video convinced me to give it a try again
Hey, awesome video! i was on the fence if the game was beginner friendly since it's on sale on steam rn, i will definetively buy after hearing your opinion! would love to play some matches with you if someday u get it on pc!
Thanks mate! I hope you enjoy the game! Definitely look at joining a discord server - if you’re in Europe there’s a good one called Leumina which has lots of people on pc who can play with you and give you advice. I’ll make a post if I ever get it on pc and we can play some matches :-)
Necoarc is quite a popular character , she even scored the most demand in terms of DLC characters! As kids growing up my brother used the character often, the character is also quite deep to learn. A great example of how silliness can lead to the most innovative ideas
@@theultimateartist4153 truly an iconic character
Def wanna try this. Idk anything about the visual novel, but the game looks cool.
@@middle_pickup hope you enjoy it! It’s worth joining a discord server to reliably find opponents
Melty Blood has a very steep learning curve because of how oppressive block strings are. Even from full screen away, there is no safety.
This game have Neco Arc as playable character and this only matter xD
It’s definitely a plus 😊
On PC the community in Europe is VERY small, but you usually find people to play with on weekends. On Switch you see a lot of people playing too... in Japan
Good to know, thanks!!
I wonder why this game is so niche in Europe ? For example Fate series is well know in Europe.
I think its just word of mouth that spreads knowledge of the game and most people into fate probably wouldnt be deep into fighting games
(Also there arent really any fate characters outside of saber in tl)
And tsukihime is a lot less popular in europe i think
I've beem playing Melty since the first version, it's always been easy to play, but this ia by fart the most most approachable.
This game looks visually very nice
But a lot of the characters look a bit generic or bland if you arent really familiar with the story
And crossplay would have been very nice to have and is unfortunately absent
@@dj_koen1265 I totally agree on both counts. On first glance I didn’t find the character selection very inspiring but I appreciated them more after I got a bit more into the game. It totally sucks about the lack of crossplay, every fighting game should have it especially those with smaller player base
Great vid! Have you tried Dead or Alive 5/6? It's a 3D fighting game series set in the Ninja Gaiden universe with cool interactive stages and counter mechanics. Both 5 and 6 have a free to play version with online play. I personally prefer 5, though 6 naturally is more active, but both have a decent playerbase on PS4/5.
Lumina beginner friendly
4:57
That's wrong
There is no Tsukihime anime
I see what you did there
i alwasy forget the combo or special attack, did you have a way to remember it all?
@@enjoysubs1511 I’d suggest start with just one combo or a couple of special moves, play with just that until you remember it well. Then add another one, and so on. Or make some notes on paper and keep it in front of you while you play!
@@frumiousgaming I see, just now I'm really angry because aozoka combo make my character cannot move
Thanks btw for the reply
@@enjoysubs1511 good luck!! It’s harder when you’re angry, I like to try a different for a bit if I’m getting too frustrated
Blazblue calamity trigger give it a try
If your friend tells you to play BBCT, that is not your friend
I really want to give this game a try but
Its $105 aus that's ridiculous
@@keegan4854 damn yeah that’s too much, hopefully it’ll come on sale for you soon. In the meantime have you tried any of the older versions of melty blood?
I haven't tried the older versions I'm completely new to the series the animation looks amazing and the controls appear to be like db fighterz, guilty gear with a bit of persona 4 arena I'm keeping this on the wishlist awaiting discounts 😅 along with Tekken 8 $120 Aus base version....... yikes
Melty blood actress again can be downloaded for free with a community patch for online play
Might be worth checking out its very cool but a bit more like what you would expect from a fanmade version of a 14 year old game
More neco arc gameplay
Ik you can play steam players on ps5
The game is fucking dead i just wasted 50 because everybody worshipping a game thyre not even fking
playing!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What platform you playing on?
auto combo killed this game on launch
😢
Explain to me how did auto combos kill the game on launch. Because you can do basic auto combos but to do the real in depth combos it will take alot of practice.
