King and Johnson seem like good friends.

Been playing some Street Fighter 6 this week now that Akuma was added. Not actually playing Akuma, I'm still mostly a Marisa main, but I've always loved the character. And god, I just love SF6 because it loves its characters just as much as I love them. They did some really cool shit with Akuma in this, and the cool weird Pokemon-style raid system they put in the battle hub was the incentive I needed to start playing online again. After the shitshow that currently is Tekken 8's online scene, it's just so nice to be able to play a game where the matchmaking actually puts me against people my skill level (as in also bad), without people ragequitting or leaving as soon as you figure out their one trick. You can actually have sets with people, and then talk after and trade tips and dance with them after! It fucking rules! It's genuinely the best online experience I've had with a fighting game.

Also, I'm dying to see what the next set of characters will be. There's some really cool-sounding hints sprinkled in SF6's world tour mode (another thing about the game I love so much). I'm one of those weirdos who love M. Bison (dictator) and would happily accept any excuse to bring him back one more time. Give him a cool new design and character development and people will actually like him this time! It worked for Ryu!

That's all for now! See you on Monday!
