8:18 (Regardless of balance) "People will still be playing it." (Looks at Steamcharts) Yeah...I don't know about that one chief. I still can't see the rationale in creating a game that has such limited movement and defensive options, while characters are throwing out nuclear explosions for their buttons and specials.
The game's balance is going in the right direction imo. Eighting generally make game that are basically matches of rocket tag but DNF feels to be on the lower end of that spectrum which I like compared to something like MVC3.
Pretty hype to see my main grappler win a tournament he has such a hard time in general but once he gets going and your opponent doesn't use lows grappler is mega scary with his damage being able to 2 or 3 touch the cast.
Cool video. Don't care for DNF Duel myself cause it's too crazy for me, but after that first patch and rooming with a guy who made top 48 at Frostys, I got mad respect for the people who stick with it, yall do deserver better, Eighting kinda wack with the lack of communication.
Good content good editing I like. To your points, I totally agree with the way you read Eighting's attempts to balance the game. DNF is totally fine being a high power three touch game. I'm a bit frustrated as an Inquisitor player because those three touches have to be earned in a back and forth neutral for us, but then I get hit for an easy 90% or TOD from Berserker, and Sader and other top tiers do not have to work at all for those two openings they need to kill. I think we'll see some balance adjustments and more characters at ARC Revo finals!
I wouldn't even use Dragonball Z Fighter or even Tekken 7 for the matter as a reference for broken characters. Both of those studios purposely released characters in those broken state for it to sell DLCs and fully aware that they are doing it. It also force the competitive scene to pick them or lose brackets. Then once the next DLC character get announce, they completely nerf the character because the new one happen to be even more broken. It one of the most unhealthy business tactic I ever seen in the fighting game genre that no one called them out on to stop it. It ruined the online experience and the competitive scene.
Cool content, i hope dnf sees some revival, ik a lot of people hopped off but its still a really cool game at the end of the day. Ima reinstall and give my vanguard another go around
Striker is the most balanced character in a game where everyone is busted, in the last patch we got in December she barely got touched, most of her changes now her to extend combos, everything else stayed. Striker is still top teir don't get me wrong but she not as big as a treat as everyone thinks
imo dnf duel is just doing too little to late, I mean we still havent even gotten the first dlc character yet. For the 40 people left playing I do hope neople/8ing keep updating the game but I doubt it'll see a big resurgence, especially with there being so many other fg releases rn (tekken 8, guilty gear, sf6, granblue fantasy rising etc.).
I don't know why the fgc was so quick to break out a eulogy for this game. It's great. It doesn't have patches out the wazoo but Arc-sys always does quality over quantity patches. It's a shame people are in such a rush to kill a perfectly good fighter.
I will said one thing as someone living in Korea and studying Game Art in Korea DNF will only stop be update if Nexon doesnt it.. if about money they have too much like too much the only problem is nexon is famous for dump money and give up... DNF was the result of they trying to expend the Dungeon and Fighter franchise to other media, they didnt had any hope to DNF duel and even the game selled more than they expected because they didnt expected the game to have so many tournament and for a big surprise Dungeon and Fighter players count go a huge bust that why the Season 1 come so late and even now they already working on Season 2 that why there no many news after the patch
Why does everyone say grappler sucks? He has literally the best abuse against bad nerves: an 80% combo you can't block. When you got a tournament to win, shield stays up. Grappler is the perfect tourney stomper
Sadly this game is drowning to the point it can't be saved. I don't even think the dlc characters will be enough to bring people back and have them STAY. People are just going to do a video and stop playing the game after. I really wish this game went far in the community but it's too late. They really going to have to make a Dnf Duel 2 lol
i liked big balance patch and how game feels right now and proportion of buffs between strong and weak characters was fair. except the amount of zerker buffs it's just stupid
I liked the game but the reality is On PC theres just actually no one playing the game. Its hard to find a match and when you do its someone you played recently. I couldn’t recommend this game to anyone at this point

Note: I mistakenly said that the 2nd balance patch was released on January 21st, but it was actually December 21st, 2022. Apologies for the mixup!
Love your enthusiasm and your edits. God tier!
Very good video. I bounced off hard from DNF so its really cool to see an in-depth analysis of the top tiers. Loved the conclusion.

I was honestly shocked looking at your subs with the high quality content keep up the good work
I honestly just don't like the random hate boner this game receives
Great video. Shao Khan getting nuked was unexpected, and hilarious.

I really love dnf, and was happy about the new patches, i will surely come back to it when new characters come out
BRO WHY IS THE FIRST VIDEO I PUT ON IN THE MORNING IM CATCHING STRAYS FOR NOT MAKING TOP 8 LIKE MAN I CAN'T ESCAPE THE PAIN
You randomly popped up in my feed. Had no idea you made videos. Nice essay
Good content good editing I like.

Hopium levels are off the CHARRRRRRRRRRRRRRTS!!!!
My only thoughts on DNF are: 1- The game is fun. 2- I want the crazy boxer monk i saw on the rpg as soon as possible.
Great video btw :D

I just hope we get some solid news at arcrevo cuz I feel like that's going to be our best chance at any news

Proud to be sub 209! Keep up the good work fighting game bro!
Holllloooooow ❤ much love my guy
He will wait as long as it takes. To think he might actually save dnf… A man of his word.
thanks for the video! i hope more people play this game again so i can have people to fight again
wait GRAPPLER WON A TOURNAMENT!? LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
if everyone is busted, then no one is busted

Grappler might be the best grappler ever conceived in any fighting game, imo
Grabble man is hype incarnate.
Whoa better than potemkin?
Nah that's Cerrebella
Nah, Potemkin.
Beowulf: 👀
Love the video. Ty for shining light on the current state of the game yet again Hollow!
Another fighting game that is balanced like nukes is Skullgirls.
I love the “Buff everyone to broken” philosophy. I wish games did it more often.
imo dnf duel is just doing too little to late, I mean we still havent even gotten the first dlc character yet.

I love this guy! I need to drop by one of your PRBFTG streams so you can teach me how do basic combos… this is AllelujahC
Nexon's marketing is terrible, they seems like they don't care.
Hope they are going to introduce spectre dlc after the arc final

Gonna spread this!
Sorry but in that first example I'm playing Striker.
You my niece

Has anyone ever told you that you sound like Cybershell?
I have subscribed to your channel....
nice
Nice video. love how you included the music. sadly the game is dead
Imma lost warrior main in da desert 😂
Bollowmid
slay
no griddy, dislike
Finally, a positive DNF video. I'm so sick of the anti-DNF videos that keep coming on my feed
can someone explain the generic character names? and what dnf stands for? visuals are cool tho
DNF Duel is an offshoot of Dungeon Fighter Online.
With the exception of lost warrior, all the characters are just subclasses from DFO.
all 2 active dnf players rejoice
That first clip sounds like a skill issue. Just get good thats it thats all.
This game is super dead bro. Let it rest in peace
Cool. Let us enjoy the content
games dead
I love dnf duel. Dnf duel Brasil discord saved the game for me. I can find ppl to play any time on discord 🥳
