Ah man, this feels like the right time to join the FGC. Sf6 was a great beginner game for me and now KI got its little update and bump in players. What a time to be alive
This is wonderful to see. Time to get back into Killer Instinct! Also, Keits seems like just... the most awesome guy. Every time I see anything with him, it's always so good.
Man I love this game's soundtrack. Thunder's stage theme goes unbelievably hard. This game introduced me to Mick Gordon's music, I've been listening to the OST for these decade.
This is probably the most epic thing ive seen so far. Changes being made to such a great game 10 years later. WOW. Also, where can i find all the changes that were made?
If u like it that much I'd recommend buying and playing it too, xbox is almost certainly evaluating interest in the franchise rn for consideration of a new installment in the franchise
This game is on Xbox game Pass so I tried it out, and it’s something I desperately want to play with some friends. Feels like Mortal Kombat went turbo mode
Got it one day on Steam (didn’t know there was a F2P version lmao) cuz I wanted to try out RAAM like a month or two ago. I love the big body grapplers. Didn’t like it at first, gave it a second chance after the update, TURNED OFF COMBO ASSIST, started fighting AI Jago, and fell in love. I want to learn the skeleton man some day, but I find it complicated to use his gimmick… still learning RAAM so I guess I should master the Gears guy before learning another character.
love how a bunch of the other chars got these minute changes, or major changes that arent that flashy and then we got Jago with the pocket shin shoryuken
it's crazy how after all these years KI still is one of the best looking games to see. I'm so glad they added Rash so I had aa reason to give the game a try, even though I don't play him.
I looked at the patch notes, have no clue about KI but I like that before but I do like that they prefaced about 700 word's worth of nerfs for one char with "It looks like we found that time machine after all."
Game is not good enough gameplay wise unfortunately. Remove the pretty graphics and the soundtrack and its literally rock, paper, scissors with your friend. Zero depth. You will be guessing 70% of the time.
@@Retrofun69and people like you are the reason why it’s not getting a 2nd game! Just support it so this classic game can get a 2nd game geez complain about everything.
@@Retrofun69...so the fighting game genre as a whole??? if you don't like it then no one is gonna knock you for it, just don't come over here with the negativity.
@@Sdoots I remember that being the case for the past few years since Iron Galaxy had moved onto other projects after season 3. At this point though, I actually have no idea what Iron Galaxy has been up to since Rumbleverse shut down its servers. If they've been free since then...maybe we can hope.
Tusk doesn't struggle too badly against most characters. His command dash lets him get around a lot of projectiles, his buttons are humongous, and his damage is bananas. Not getting new stuff is a little disappointing, but the game was already rather reasonably balanced, so they didn't want to change too much and potentially ruin that.
@@stormmariolol I just finished commenting on this guy in another thread he was complaining about everything. And I told him this is why we not getting a ki2 because of people like him.
God I love that ki is coming back on a special unrelated though would you be interested in seeing a budokai 3 mod that revamps the entire game into a proper full fledged fighting game?
would like if could wait for ranked and/or exhibition matches while in training mode, in steam version the waiting time for both modes is a lot of minutes
yo guys, I appeal to your saviness and wisdom. Does the bug that prevented many to play online (me included) has been fixed? I really, really, REALLY love the game, but being limited to only play it in local is a big deal
Unfortunately I don't think so, which is disappointing to say as someone who finds it and the hit sparks hard to watch to the point of being literally a bit nauseating. A shame really.
@@lurklimit8378 it would take years to develop, it makes more sense that they did that to keep the community active and spread the game before an announcement, the rise of guilty gear a niche franchise and the new SF make more sense to be reason to want to develop a new KI than see if the old one can get more players
As someone who finds this game literally slightly nausaeating to watch between the all screen shaking and overdone hit sparks despite being able to keep with the _Marvel_ games no problem, I really hope it's a RUclips-only issue because it is awful. And that still hurts a bit to say as someone who was glad that _Killer Instinct_ got revived at all. At least I can listen to the awesome music without getting a headache, but trying to watch this game for like more than 10 minutes is...off-putting just visually to me unlike any other game.
Big patch but isnt it crazy that even after the patch... the characters from the first two seasons are STILL looking better than anything than came afterwards?
this game is so hideous in like a mid 2000s midway monster energy drink ride or die can u handle the ps2? kinda charming way. The female models are especially awful, like the poster girls you saw on graphics cards in the late 2000s.
Wonder how many game breaking bugs were introduced with this patch. Day 1 2013 fulgore main only. I know about change. The most reworked character of all time....and overcame all. Iron galaxy the worst dev....back then....still bad by today's standards

I always liked how this game had a lot of monsters compared to most fighting games.

Also, is Riptor a female raptor or is it a community in-joke?

It's been great jumping back in recently with the amount of players checking it out. For a time even ranked on Steam is pretty active!
U gay?
Why on earth is the steam ranked pool separate actually?
@@metallsnubben Maybe a Microsoft exclusivety deal, or some weird port shenanigans.
@@metallsnubbengotta remember this was a launch Xbox One game. Online functionality was absolutely nowhere near where it is now for top online games.
@metallsnubben
Because the steam version of ranked is normal, while the microsoft version of ranked is still tied Xbox Live.
this looks a video game that a character would be playing in a movie

LMFAO

I didn't notice until now lol
To say that I know nothing about Killer Instinct would be a major understatement, but I enjoy watching Sajam play anything.
All you need to know is it's one of, if not THE, most hype fighting games ever made. The way the music syncs with strikes is just awesome

I have been crazy addicted to KI and Halo Infinite for the past month, loving Xbox right now
So hype to see some KI, it’s my favorite fighting game to watch it’s so fucking cool
If u like it that much I'd recommend buying and playing it too, xbox is almost certainly evaluating interest in the franchise rn for consideration of a new installment in the franchise
This game is on Xbox game Pass so I tried it out, and it’s something I desperately want to play with some friends. Feels like Mortal Kombat went turbo mode
Same, played KI for the first time this week and I was impressed im loving Arbiter and Riptor

As someone who's never played KI it's great to see such an old game (10 years wtf??) still get love from its devs
it's crazy how after all these years KI still is one of the best looking games to see. I'm so glad they added Rash so I had aa reason to give the game a try, even though I don't play him.
Man, I'd forgotten how fun this game is to watch.

I might have to give this game a shot. It looks fun plus I grew to love both halo and the arbiter since 2014
yeah , you can try it for free and its pretty fun on the casual level too
Nice!
Still the best fighting game ever made
We need KI2.
Supposedly Microsoft wants to do it but can't figure out who should develop it.

We already have that game.
@@Retrofun69 You know what I mean.
If you told me I'd be playing KI in 2023, I'd just nod and keep whiffing my combo.
Finally, a return to the Krilling character, we'll finally get more Will it Krill action with RAAM running around
Been waiting for this
The rash nerfs are a gift from god TuT
Wish it was on PlayStation
a little bummed out that tusk didn't get more, although, a lot of characters he struggled with are worse now iirc
Tusk doesn't struggle too badly against most characters. His command dash lets him get around a lot of projectiles, his buttons are humongous, and his damage is bananas.

We are so back
I like how KI looks bad and good at the same time.
plays bad, looks good

-KI anniversary patch
-DBFZ rollback
-Granblue rising
-UNI 2

Waiting for KI 2✊

Only time I am jealous of xbox owners.
There will now be no excuse to not play aganos
Stay great fucc the law 💙

This game is still getting updates?
Its been active since release, basically.
I gotta learn how frame traps work. Or punishes cause everything feels safe and unsafe lmao
Do you mean in ki specifically or just in general?
@@evilded2 killer instinct. Coming from sf6 it feels like you’re playing in mud, yet in a fast game at the same time

I hope not. I dont trust Iron Galaxy to make good gameplay after what they did to this game after the first 2 seasons.
