Have you watched the show in its entirety?

Yeah, some fighting games makes you do some ridiculous calisthenics to pull off special moves. TFH tends to be a lot more straightforward. That said, laptop keyboard... yowch. Getting a basic controller of some sort might be a good idea after all, and it would probably be a lot more practical than a separate keyboard.

I don't seem to have much trouble with it, and stuff I hear from the Steam forums makes it sound that it might actually be easier than with a controller due to an absence of crazy circles and pretzel inputs and so on. That said... the AI is really wonky, with blocking and reaction times being all over the place, so I wouldn't judge your skill by playing against the computer. That said, a lot of inputs do depend on quick, precise presses, so the mantra of practice, practice, practice applies here quite heavily. I've been playing for a while and only now am I starting to climb out of the buttonmashing pit.

What about Hanazuki? I mean, what even happened to it? It was on YouTube for a while and then just sort of disappeared? -

But were you hypnotized by Josh Haber to say this?

They are very proud of themselves, true, but self-esteem doesn't have to preclude affection and esteem for others.

Here's the thing about their constant competitiveness - they're competing about things both of them are proud to be good at. So if you take away that filter of rivalry, you end up seeing that all the things each of them is proud to embody are also things they would respect and appreciate in the other. So essentially, a byproduct of their constant one-upmanship is that they're always seeing each other at their best.

Well, I can honestly say I don't know much about Chinese culture - especially given that China spans a massive area and would therefore encompass a *lot* of cultures - my opinion of China as a state is, well, contemptuous. It pretty much leans heavily into all the usual oppressions and atrocities of pseudo-communist states, including making as much use of authoritarianism to project an image of control of its people. Of course, that's not actually the case, so it's still just another run of the mill dictatorship, albeit one that managed to amass massive industrial power. In the meantime, abuse of power and corruption is still as rampant as connections to the party, government or really any sort of position of authority can and are used to force privilege or immunity from the law, assuming they don't inconvenience someone more powerful and the "my father is Li Gang" meme that exploded after that particular killing shows just how aware the actual Chinese people are of it. All in all, underneath all the suppression and censorship, and how heavy-handed the Chinese government tends to be with any sort of medium or large-scale... let's call it non-compliance, like the Hong Kong protests, I wouldn't be surprised if there's actually underground resistance or revolution movements building up as it is. Plus, got knows there'd be a fair share of other nations' agencies supporting them, given how aggressive China is getting economically.

It's finally not blasting-ass winter, but I can't go out to get parts for all the house repairs I need done! -
Quick call for anyone still interested - if you're onboard, let me know and I'll start filling the gaps from there.

A random thought I had. What do you get when you draw chest muscles on a sprite picture of a person?
SpoilerA pecsellated image.

Outside my window, across the street, there's a kid driving circles in a toy electric car while their parent stands back and watches, while some sort of pop country song blasts singing "take it all back, take it all back".
And I'm thinking... "it may be the quarantine, but it's nice people still find ways to do things together outside... but dear lord, can't you raise your kid on less trashy music?"
