Why Old Fighting Games Felt Better

Why do so many players say "fighting games just don’t feel the same anymore"? In this video, I break down why classic fighting games like Super Turbo, CVS2, and MVC2 hit different—and why modern titles like Street Fighter V and VI feel so rigid in comparison. We’ll talk about heart vs mind gameplay, why hitbox footsies don't exist anymore, and how modern games turned into homework instead of instinct. If you’ve ever felt like your muscle memory doesn’t work anymore… you’re not crazy. 🧠 If you’re a fighting game player struggling with modern titles, or just want to understand why games feel so different now, this one’s for you. 📢 Like, comment, and subscribe if this hits home. ---- https://x.com/jchensor   / jchensor
