Fighting Game Community (FGC) General - The history of FGC drama, general FGC shenanigans, and directory to more eccentric individuals and subcultures within the community

*looks up backstory*
>One week prior to the events of Remix Heart, a grimoire transformed Mai into a girl. She was not able to reverse the transformation and her father sent her away to the Torifune Military Academy under an alias.
oh....... oh no.
If you're thinking about the typical troon, don't worry....its even worse.

Bimonthly post admitting to in/uninstalling fighting games all day, knowing I won't play any. Every single fightan space is just nothing but celebrity gossip and porn spam. Like beyond any other community, it's just porn this and that. It'd be fine with a sexually charged community but people also don't play the fighting games, so it's just. Porn.

Oh yeah forgot this character, was all I saw when I played Central Fiction (or was it Chrono Phantasma Extend?) online near the end of its life cycle, like no other character existed. Least I got good at fucking them up even if it was mostly the same people over and over. Mai is just a forgettable character, least the Grimoire turned him into an actual woman rather than getting "Bridget'd" (yes I know Mai was before that) or being a dude in crossdressing, I don't even think he accepted it either so lol a tranny icon hating the fact that they were forcefully turned into the opposite sex, there's an allegory in there somewhere.

Cancer. Bridget being groomed to be a tranny in his ending opened the zipper flood gates where suddenly people started to give a shit about Mai and Poison once being dudes. Thankfully I've seen people push back against Mai being a tranny since Mai was unwillingly turned into a girl and wants to return to being a dude but couldn't find a way to undo their curse. Yeah you fucking pedophile child mutilators, they were cursed. Meanwhile Poison was made a transvestite in the US version of Final Fight simply because "those gaijin might get pissy if we allow them to beat the shit out of women, so let's just say they have a dick and call it a day, everyone hates trannies afterall (boy did that change)" and remained an actual woman in the Jap version. Hell Poison is probably just a cis woman at this point since now nobody sane really gives a shit about someone beating up a woman in certain games such as-for example-Street Fighter since that woman will most likely do the same to who they're fighting. Meanwhile Bridget...I honestly don't know if they're still a child but they look child-like enough for me to label people calling Bridget "hot" as pedophiles (I mean, transgenderism and pedophilia is a tautology at this point). This was of course after borderline retconning the fact that Bridget's entire story was trying to prove they're a manly man.

These are the tranny fighting game icons people. :story:

Real life is the only fighting game you need. Unfortunately the matchmaking is terrible and the community is mostly casuals who just freeze up or button mash.
View attachment 6641650What is this gay shit. Two of the four are variety streamers. Not dedicated FGC people. Where’s Brain F, TNS, Smug, Broski, The main man swe, they had all these options. An they chose to put up a hello kitty girl and a smash player.
Clout > Game basically sums up the modern gaming media landscape.
 
Oh shit, FINAL SHOWDOWN is still around? I remember him from Holy Zen and DustLoop's precurser forum that I can't recall the name of. Granted, his name only rings a bell because his user name was in kanji and I think he did a flash video about Dizzy sperm for a contest they had. It's been 20 years, so maybe that was someone else and it's probably lost to time.
Yeah, the FINALSHOWDOWN
I forgot to mention this one, during one of the redbull combo video competitions that Clayton tried to submit for, felt robbed due to some retard who won more or less cheated by using the playback of P2 training mode in DBFZ, so it can autoplay either it was the first half or the second half of the combo and tried to excuse it with being sick and gay or gay and sick, not that part is important if you know about clayton (he is sick not in the head but physically all over), trying to find the video but might take me a while to find if i do come back & edit my post as I don't remember all the details clearly

also walked randomly through some of the old catalog, specifically his dbfz vids and it is pretty clear that people were not only stealing his tech but got it wrong for so long it took them a year to figure it out you can just hold the button (lol)

oh yeah and i wasn't joking about the random discord whos trying to fuck him or whatever

Once people started putting FGC in their handle and moreso lost the social culture around fighting games being more wrapped up in online the social standards hit the typical style interactions of discord/reddit thirst posting alongside a good amount of information being scattered. While it wasnt perfect early interaction with players were more natural and enough of the faggotry was kept in check that people wouldnt blindly accept the local player with a jizz covered Mai on a madcatz stick.

Only thing that can be recommended to newer players is to use the open resources available that most of the tech nerds lay out and find some less social retards in game or close friends groups. This really only applies to more populated games since the more niche you get the more deranged it becomes.

Kappa in a nutshell.

Kappa/Kappachino is just a shitshow now, but prides itself on being less of a shit show than other admitly trash fighter sub reddits. You can get meaningful discussion there every now and then, but they enjoy the "porn as a filter" type deal more than playing games and the drama for the modern day FG just doesnt hit as hard as a decade ago cause it's mostly sanitized or the same 4 twitter dribble threads screenshots being rotated around by some nobody faggots.

Kappa's credit really did shine during the SF4 era though when they started sponsoring niche players that couldnt get around leading to some extertaining playstyles like Pepeday

This time is pretty much over now that players get full backings from sponsors or just grind online now that the mainline titles are playable. With that it just leaves Kappa being more of a place that had a peak but wont ever hit that high again, so it just gets drown out in low brow threads that sandwiched between 2 pages of mediocre porn.

Sadly I wasn't around for that, I was pretty far away from the fighting game scene even if I did play fighting games. Won't get into it. Of course when I do find myself gravitating towards the FGC it's already fucked beyond belief.

This is hilariously close to the fate of 4chan. I guess the fate of places on the internet is to eventually devolve into porn and low effort garbage.

I never understood the appeal of Bridget, even before he got localized as a troon. I-No, Jam Kuradoberi or Milla are way better.
Bridget is a take on coming of age characters and with Guilty Gear's rock and roll themes, he is meant to be a reference to Cheech and Chong and their albums, specifically with Cheech Martin as Alice Bowie, a crossdressing parody of Alice Cooper and David Bowie, and their hit song, Earache My Eye. Earache My Eye is about a boy who crossdresses and gets shit for it in school and at home, but doesn't care and hopes to one day become a rock star and make lots of money with his style. He is also a reference to Up In Smoke, their first movie.

I have to do this because Fandom mods are fags and a birdy told me that when this was posted, it was deleted instantly. The pozzed shit is getting high online, as stated by me in another thread we share, and apparently it's not just becoming apparent in them making their websites safe spaces but scouring for info on their enemies. I gurantee what they're possibly going to do is not data preservation and safeguarding information from being tampered with by censorship.
 
Rooflemonger's 235k channel got its back broken today by crypto hackers, Youtube deleted it all after the hackers started live streaming some crypto scam. He's currently screaming into the void on X to try and get Youtube to fix it.
Shit I like roofie. He's a DSP tractor and probably more knowledgeable about lolcows in general than he lets on. Used to shitpost with him on twitter. He's Canadian though, so he's thoroughly buck broken mentally in all likelihood.
Kept most of that shit out of his videos though, which are generally informative for boomers with little freetime to figure shit out like me.

I wish him the best of luck I guess, but something tells me he's fucked.

"my lifes work is gone"
nigga do you really not keep a copy of your videos
i have like 2 backups of the shitty meme vids i've uploaded and i couldn't give a shit if they disappear, like dude.
 
Hoping he'll ultimately make it out of things okay, but he's well-connected within the FGC, so whatever he winds up doing to pick up the pieces will surely get passed around other community creators and their audiences as well. FGC folks tend to be tight with one another for the most part, and he's pretty well-respected within the niche, so I have no doubts he'll recover his audience with or without YT's help, as shitty as this whole thing has to be for him.
