what game should i invest myself into? as a semi-new fightgame player, who wants to really try to become a part of something? also, what's your story?

Im relatively new to fighting games, ive got almost 200 hours in guilty gear strive, but i always have short sessions, because of the stress and lack of rewarding feeling when i play against strangers that i cant even interact with. i mostly play with friends.

i have plenty fight games already, T8, SF6, GGST ofc, Skullgirls, MK11, and JJBAASBR,

but except for when i got to floor 10 in ggst, which isnt even that much of a deal, ive never really commited to any of them.

seeing some of the content on fighting games, i begin to feel that theres a lot more that im missing out on, if i can get good at one proper game, and somehow find it in me to join a community, i may be in for something to bring some sense into my life.

problem is, im sceptical about everything, tekken seems like its very rewarding to button mashing, while SF just kinda has a weird aesthetic im not really into.

honestly the only fightgame which i actually can without doubt say i like is GGST, but its niche within niche, and i wanna relate to more people, in hopes of finding somewhere to belong.

i already have it really hard finding the will to interact with people, despite my want for it, somehow i just always see it as a chore. but seeing tournament videoes, seeing how highly people speak of eachother, it makes me feel like i can light a fire inside myself like that too. i just really need a push in some path. and then somehow stay on it.

im a bit drunk so i may have rambled a bit too much. i thank you deeply for your attention and answers

Who here needs a new TV monitor

Good evening everyone, I have a small Samsung TV ( about 32 or 36 inches) I was willing to sell, works great, is an HD TV, has a remote and all. If someone in the Orlando area needs another monitor for any fgc events they're hosting, or just want to have more tvs to host a personal set up, feel free to PM me to negotiate prices.

Just thought about it since CEOtaku/Holiday Matsuri is coming up.

Are posts about fanmade rosters allowed in this subreddit?

So I'm sure a lot of you know that posts regarding fanmade rosters are prohibited in r/Fighters unless they're part of discussion threads or whatever which is just arbitrary, if you ask me, so I'm kinda wondering if this subreddit actually allows fanmade rosters in their own posts unlike r/Fighters. Thanks in advance.

I'm a kof newbie.

Never played ANY kof game, but just yesterday I installed kof xv, currently having a lot of fun with it! The team I'm currently trying to main is point blue Mary, mid shermie and anchor Vanessa (hope I got the terminology right.). I would like some tips for each of these characters, like the most important things y'all think I should learn with them, I already have a basic BNB for each of them. Thanks in advance :)

Would the FGC be interested in PvP battles with cryptocurrency wagers?

Hey everyone, I’ve been thinking about an idea and wanted to get the community’s thoughts. Imagine a forum-based site dedicated to the FGC (Fighting Game Community) where you could discuss games, share strategies, and engage with other fans.

On top of that, what if it allowed players to challenge each other to battles or PvP matches where you could wager cryptocurrency? The idea would be to offer a competitive space for skill-based matches with leaderboards, custom matchmaking, and rewards.

Do you think something like this would resonate with the community? Would the ability to wager cryptocurrency in matches be appealing

Has the FFC moved away from X (Twitter)?

I'm just very sick of the toxic nature of people on Twitter. I want to disconnect from Twitter. But, I want to make sure I'm still glued into the FGC online space. Does anyone know if people have moved/starting to move off of Twitter?

The Game Awards Ignore The FGC Almost Every Year

I understand League, DOTA, and COD are much bigger games than even Street Fighter but the FGC has had incredible moments since 2022. Punk, Arslan, Mena, and SonicFox (just to name a few) had an incredible 2024 at least one of them deserved a nomination here

Red Flags in Face-To-Face Tournaments?

As the kids this days says (?)
For real, in your experience, what's something that is a "red flag" for you on a Offline Event?

You know, travel to another city to participe in a tournament and... "that is happening" and makes you feel like your tournament run, and probably your day is just "ugh, is one of those events".

How is this sub compared to Fighters?

I left fighters due to the massive toxicity. But i still wanna talk fighting games. But usually my takes are somehow taken badly on that sub cause I play characters they dont like. Hope this community is better.
