I like fighting games but I went home to be a family man. He/him. I made the FGC Pulse feed and it's pretty good. If you like the stuff I repost, I get it from there. Feed: https://bsky.app/profile/did:plc:gi4pu6g5itmjtbbkzdvb2mwc/feed/aaablrlu5zqwe

I've spent 40+ hours refining this feed to get the best selection of fighting game content on Bluesky, and I'm constantly improving it. Tap the '...' and pin it as a tab on 🏠, and please 🤍 it for visibility. It's curated and sorted, but it'll surface #fgcpulse for a few hours, so knock yourself out!

And stop giving me combos with 3 frame assist extensions, my brothers have made it clear they are not down for that shit

I know a lot of you are waiting for consoles, but 2xko has cross-progression and it could probably run on your toaster

Ekko and Ahri is a story combo I wasn't expecting but it works, the cinematic is up there with Riot's best

It is working right now, but I have occasionally had the main body of my feeds completely fall off the last few days. In the past, I've found it was a problem with inputting another feed in a block, and was able to work around it by removing that. these times it resolved itself before I could check.

It's a good season for it, it's got me in the mood and this is definitely the carve this year.

Pumpkin carved like the Vessel from Hollow Knight.

Taking the weekend to get a better ending on Hollow Knight before I get Silksong, and I just have to say no one who's cleared the White Palace or defeated the Radiance in any form has any right to complain about fighting game combos being difficult.

It's weird, but it's especially hard when the companies don't post on this site. Some of the official announcements aren't here until months later, it's kind of a joke

CraptastropheFGC @craptastrophe.bsky.social · 5d

I can't imagine people spending that kinda time with that game lol

CraptastropheFGC @craptastrophe.bsky.social · 5d

The offline launcher is in the folder with the game files. Don't lab Yasuo combos this weekend though, they're nerfing his ass 😂

CraptastropheFGC @craptastrophe.bsky.social · 5d

They're so good every time

The game is offline right now and we're still playing it. I don't think any other live service f2p game has ever been that resilient.

#2xko is offline for the weekend, and it's got me thinking how it's cool that it's already avoided the tragedy of multiversus with its offline mode. All characters unlocked, no need to connect to a server. Even if it never came back, it would still have a scene for years. Nicely done.
