If there are two things I LOVE it's the following...legit amazing 2D VS arcade fighting games...and playing them on arcade hardware! So why not play BlazBlue Central Fiction on the Taito Type X2 arcade platform! Sure it's not retrogaming...but it is an esoteric way to play!

I don't ALWAYS have to show OLD arcade hardware on the channel! I can certainly show newer arcade hardware too...so here we are with an entire series on the Taito Type X2 arcade platform as well as the NesicaxLive service!
Up Next; Blazblue: Central Fiction. I've loved this franchise ever since the OG BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger released almost like fifteen years ago...and this entry is legit my favorite! Arc System Works makes some of the best 2D fighting games around and this may be their crowning achievement. It may not be retro gaming but its sure fun! (if you want retro gaming Arc System works play an OG Guilty Gear!)

One of the great things about playing BBCF on the X2 was lost in time, and that was the fact the game used to be an arcade exclusive and went through 10 revisions ( 9 of which have been dumped and preserved ). Its fun to go back and play some of the older versions and see the changes, Arc definitely used the arcades as a medium to test and refine the game before bringing it home.

I played this for a while earlier this year when they added rollback netcode to the steam version. Tried to learn Litchi but I never got good enough to feel like I could play online lol, pretty much just did the combo trials which were super fun in their own right. Such a cool game with incredibly creative and unbelievably complex mechanics. I feel like you could spend a lifetime just playing this game lol

So how does the X3 work vs the X2? Would it benefit one to get an X3 and would you have X2 compatibility on it? It seems like there were some weird years of overlap between the two- since the X3 was out in 2012 and this game was 2015, I assumed it was an X3 game.
@VideoGameEsoterica
@VideoGameEsoterica 2 года назад
The overlap is odd. Basically anything X2 will run on X3...you'd just get a 3 if you wanted the extra games it has

Actually cheaper to get an X3 and Atrax multi downloaded on ssd. You can play dozens of games from x1 to x3 including games from other arcade boards like CPS, neo Geo, Naomi, Atomiswave, Cave, namco system etc. etc. Games run flawless, super easy and quick to boot and front end mimics Nesica front end. And best of all the multi is free. Have that running in my Vewlix. It’s awesome!

I do like this game and always have but I can't agree on the animation, especially being married to an animator and learning a bunch of things by seeing it. It always looked really choppy to me covered up by really amazing frame-by-frame artwork. Otherwise its pretty good and flows/plays excellently and made me forget about Darkstalkers.

So weird they skipped dubbing Central Fiction. They did do a dub for Blazblue X Tag but they didn't bother with an arcade mode. Central Fiction also skipped XBOX so I ended up getting the Swtich and Steam versions. My favorite way to Play BlazBlue is to pick Stylish mode and Go Ham. It's the only way somebody like Bullet is playable. I'm perfectly capable of playing it normally it's just more fun in Stylish mode. The game's Story is a fever dream.

@SiincereARC
@SiincereARC 2 года назад
I wasn't a fan of arc systems (as a whole) so some games were hit or miss with me. My only gripe with most of their games is the 2D sprites over a 3D background. I see no real point of the 3D background. It never looks like they mesh together. Even in Guilty Gear Strive, i PERSONALLY (for those who I think I'm a voice of authority on these things, when I know I'm not) think the 3D background is just not meshing well in my eyes. That's why I disliked CVS2 over the original because it was too heavily used in my opinion. MVC2 is another culprit of that which nags me.
@VideoGameEsoterica
@VideoGameEsoterica 2 года назад
I don't mind it as much but I'd love to see a pure 2D game from them again. But I get it...so much easier to develop on a modern platform / SDK when you use polygons
