Juri DutyGooooood morning to you all, friends and lovers, and welcome to Whatcha Been Playing? You'll have to forgive your pal Moyse for the flying visit this week, as it has been an incredibly busy week, complete with some weekend working - *sadface* - in order to be prepped for this huge launch week. Both Capcom's Street Fighter 6 and Blizzard's Diablo IV are currently swooping into battle, and I have a fair old bit to do ahead of these releases. Still, this weekend should be a bit lighter for me.
I hope that this week's entry of WBP? finds you all in a good place, and that you all have equally calmer weekends lined up. If you're free for the next couple of days, I hope that they are joyful, and that you get some quality R'n'R emboldened by quality entertainment. And if you are, unfortunately, Workin' for The Man today, (not Becky Lynch), then know that we're sending you good vibes for a smooth shift, and I hope that you get home to something that's all for you very soon.
Be kind to yourselves, friends. And make the most of your spare time on this double-dayer.
Juri BootyThis week has been dominated by Street Fighter 6 (https://www.destructoid.com/reviews/street-fighter-6-review-destructoid-fgc-capcom-fighting-games/), I game that I have been very excited about in the run-up to and am extremely pleased with on its release. It has its own share of slips and falls (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A_3cIvwbo98) ? World Tour is strangely formed and oddly written, and the specter of monetization hands over the title ? but the characters, visuals, technical prowess and, of course, the fight itself are all S-Tier elements. I plan to spend this weekend eating donuts and finally playing the new scrapper not for the site, but for me.
Prepared to feel some crushing defeat, but I have to have a better mental focus on this title. Street Fighter V frustrated and depressed me, and as such became a game I played for over 600 hours despite it often making me very unhappy. I gotta ensure this doesn't happen again. It's not fun or healthy. But I'm digging SF6 and its mechanics so far, and I'm hoping that it will bring me more of the sporadic fun times and great weekends that its predecessor was able to.
Let's go, Juri, we got a lotta skulls to collect.
Juri... Foot-y..?Huh, it wasn't a flying visit at all... I guess I just can't help myself, y'all are just so magnetic. I hope that you'll take the time to jump into the comments and share all of the hits 'n' pieces that you've been, (or will be), enjoying this week. Whether you write 100 words or just a single sentence, it matters to me and to your fellow community members. So whether you running around the Sky Islands, battling out of Hell, or simply battling your way through your backlog, tell us all about it. We had something of a drop-off in comments last week, but I just appreciate y'all being here.
Thanks for showing out, it means a lot.
Have a wonderful weekend, from all of us in Destructoid.
