Why are Japs so obsessed with weird/super technical game mechanics?
I've been trying to wrap my head around Under Night In-Birth Exe:Late[st] grind grid and I still don't understand it.
Because it's a lot better than the "Press X to watch a 30 minute cutscene" design philosophy that western developers love so much.

I'm very good at uniel so i'll try to help you understand.
The grd circle at the bottom completes after 14 seconds i think, whoever has the most blocks at that point gets access to vorpal, which gives you a 10% damage buff as well as allowing you to cancel any move via chain shift by pressing DD, and also guard cancel at the cost of losing vorpal. CS also gives you meter proportional to how many blocks you had filled before you activated it.
GRD is gained by walking forward, connecting attacks, holding 5D to charge it running, shorthopping (6D), activating Veil Off, and correctly shielding moves. GRD is lost by backdashing, getting grd broken by either getting hit by veil off or incorrectly shielding a move/getting thrown while shielding, or by using your characters force function which is used by pressing A+B.
In short, play well, get grd, play like a shitter, lose all your grd and die.

Yes because as we all know there is no such thing as middle ground and everything is always extremes
also who do you main? Orie main here, divine thrust da gawd and that backdash is too good.I also want her to step on me with her heels

Does that title actually mean anything or is it just japs sticking a dictionary in a blender and taking whatever word salad comes out?

oh man you chose arguably the hardest starting character besides Yuzuriha
I don't know what they were thinking making a character without neutral in a neutral focused game

I just copy Rion's neutral game.
Jumping to the top of the screen and putting up orbs and pray that they guess the spot where i land wrong

I could have sworn this thread was a parody of some tragic weeb game design given the fake sounding title and the description of those mechanics. This discussion sounds straight out of an Onion or Something Awful article.

At least you get tons of buffs in st. Literally all I wanted for Orie is a projectile invul thrust and couldn't even get that, decreased minimum height on j.2C and decreased recovery on her summons are nice though.
Because jap devs grew up in arcades where being able to do cool and difficult things in a game made people watch you play and think you were cool, which they all remember as the best moments of their lives.
So they're trying to recreate that. Create a game that lets some players stand out and feel awesome.

Is there a word to describe this style of nonsense naming convention that japanese developers use? This Guilty Gear Accent Core Backslash Tilde and Fate Stay Night Cross Dream Down Four Fifths is just idiotic, but nobody bats an eye. Am I taking crazy pills?
