AOF2 was definitely "next gen" looking for 1994. Also it was a great sequel... Considering that most fg sequels around that time barely changed the game (and Capcom had nothing but cheap SF2 revisions). Also AOF among all early fgs had an unmatched sense of narrative, and even later in the 90s it was rarely matched. The fights had a context and development. And the first game ended with a cliffhanger, and the sequel felt like a direct sequel of a movie series. AOF sure had many high grade merits and contributions to the genre, leaving aside all the jank.

@foxhack5011 2 жыл бұрын

1994-me figured out a lot of this game's weirdness. You can punch fireballs of all kinds to destroy them, you can press the buttons to land from a throw most of the time (except for Mickey's grab), it's easy to trick characters into doing specific things so you can land free hits, if you throw someone you can hit them with a fireball when they get up -and it causes a stun, ALWAYS-. You can also run towards a character and grab them. Mickey is the most assholish of them all though - you can just walk up to someone and grab them. Then do it again and again and again. The CPU can't get out of it when done right. A lot of the game's strategies are based around footsies, too. This is still way up there in my list of favorite SNK games. It's what made me a fan of the Sakazakis, King, and Robert. 27 years and still going, baby!

I know Path of the Warrior: AOF3 is pretty sick - I've played a bit of that one, but not the first two. Definitely gonna have to check them out now. Both AOF and Kizuna Encounter should have more exposure; I don't know why so few characters show up in King of Fighters or even when SNK did Neo Geo Battle Colisseum.

Beat P2 and then you get another clean crack at the AI. I think I beat young Geese with Mickey, since his throw is inescapable. An overall fun but frustrating game!
