Fighting Games Are...Food? -REAL TALK-

Hundred hand snacks

Walks by a Mexican restaurant. Mmm, gotta love the smell of the game

Brawlhalla is like a high school lunch. You just grab whatever's there, be it pizza, soup, chicken, a sandwich, hoagie, hotdog, etc., eat it, and then go, and it's incredibly samey every day, aside from the few special days where they bring out a cake or have whole turkey legs for that special holiday that you end up appreciating. A lot of Brawlhalla matches and characters are like that, once you get down to brass tacks nearly every character is super samey because at the end they all have the same basic moveset, even if their specials look and feel different, but there's occasionally that one character that does something no other character can do that makes them feel just that tiny bit extra special and makes you want to keep coming back.

This is legit one of the most unexpectedly creative and accurate descriptions of fighting games.

"Guilty Gear is Mexican food. "You can eat it three days out of the week if you want." Me, someone who is Mexican and grew up eating Mexican food every day o_o

Now I want someone to animate the mascots of these fighting games eating the foods their games represent. I can imagine that. Ryu sits at the head of the table, eating a steak. Scorpion having a Five Guys Burger, eating a bit far away from the table. Mario having like a lot of shit on his plate. Sol eats a burrito while Goku sits next to him eating a LOT of steak fajitas. Kazuya eating his Korean barbecue slowly so he can savor it. Kasumi isn’t eating. She’s serving everyone else their food. Roll is chowing down on a random flavor of Ben and Jerry’s ice cream. Nakoruru finally getting the satisfaction of her perfectly made sushi. Sailor Moon opening up her Jack in the Box meal. Fillia came to the table late but she sits down with her Tiramisu, awkwardly looking at Roll’s Ice Cream Siegfried is enjoying the perfect Beef Lo Mein and he’s sure to get the best bites out of it. Akira is sitting with his Pancakes. Don’t ask. Even devoted martial artists need sugar. Jago sits with a big plate of food made by a different member of the KI cast. Orchid made the turkey.

walks into resturant Me: I'll take 5 ryu's with a side of crouch jump forward heavy. And for to go I'll also have one of your ☝ down foward specials......yes from capcom vs marvel. Oh and I'll have a large coke as well.

"What's the name of those corn candies?" Candy corn, Max...

This is my favorite Ted Talk

I'd say SFV is more like Applebees: high quality food, but prepared in a fast, cheap way.

"Hooters, there is definitely a fighting game in there." - Maximilian Dood dec 2019

So if someone rage quit in the game, I guess that’s means their 😎 “Too salty”

"Does ice cream look amazing? No! It's a bunch of congealed milk and shit frozen!" -Maximilian Dood, 2019 This might legitimately be my favorite line that has ever come out of Max's mouth!

I played Tekken when I was young, but I still prefer 2D fighting games. I have recently started getting into Tekken 7, and your “movement is the meat of the game” comparison actually helped me understand what the game is truly about and how to improve. Thanks for shedding a light.

"DOA is Hooters." Perfect analogy is perfect.

Max isn’t a YouTuber anymore. He’s my teacher now. I always attend Maximillian Class

Last Blade 2 is that secret menu item you've glanced over everytime you went out to eat, and when you finally order it it ends up being the greatest dish you've ever had. So simplistic yet refined, something you've never had before. And then you ask the chef, "Are there any other dishes like this," and he just says, "No."
