Them's Fightin' Herds 

Okay, so I love a lot about this game, but I think it's cranked up just a leeeeetle too fast for my poor decrepit aaaaancient no-longer-fifteen-years-old hooves.

I'll keep trying for a bit anyhow. Why not. My fightstick was collecting dust anyhow.

@ElectricKeet I really need to take a look at it now - I haven't been following it in a while, unrelatedly since Hasbro wagged their finger at the original designs. Sounded like a distinctly fun concept, even if I know I'd be useless at it. =:)

re: Them's Fightin' Herds 

@porsupah Depends on how much fighting game experience you have. The easiest of the five difficulty settings allows for simple play that boils down to "react to prompt with button". It's a good place to start, and I should probably spend more time there getting comfortable with blocking and evasion before I do any more work on actual damage.

It also has a story mode I dipped into for a couple hours earlier, and so far it's like a slow piece-at-a-time tutorial. It's an overhead RPG-style thing that jumps to the fight-game part for combat. Goofy and delightful!

@ElectricKeet Oh, I might get on with the easiest level, in that case, especially if that can be part of the story mode. ^_^
