    I don't even play fighting games but you are one of my favourite content creators on this platform. Amazing video

    I think the word for an excess of belongingness is conformity

    "Indulgences were a pay-to-win mechanic that benefited wealthy scrub; I'm paraphrasing" Made my morning xDDDDDDD

    Core-A Gaming: A place where you can learn about philosophy, sociology, and the FGC at the same time.
  • @ComicDrake
    I can never get into fighting games, but content like this is exactly why I sub and actively watch your channel.
  • @Valigarmanda
    “Indulgence is a pay2win mechanic that benefitted wealthy scrubs.” this’ll be my life tip.
  • Yo, no lie, no exaggeration, this is hands down one of the greatest videos you have ever made and I have watched them all multiple times because they are just so good. It’s thanks to you and others like you that I have become better at fighting games and life itself. Thanks for your hard work and dedication. Keep up the great work!
  • @Channel9001
    By watching Core-A's videos, you are actively moving from the "visitors" bracket toward the "novice" bracket.
  • @BlazinTre
    Yo, having a MASTERS in Clinical Psych, this is the BEST breakdown of Group and Social theory condensed into a understandable, entertaining, and informative video essay. You are a LEGEND @Core-A Gaming for making this amazing insight into social group theory for the FGC.

    "Stay free" "Justin Wong is free"... He did it he kept being himself the actual madman

    YES A NEW CORE-A GAMING VIDEO IT'S BEEN SO LONG
  • @leomagus2813
    Got spooked that you brought up the 2 different ken combos. Earlier today I was looking up Ken Masters kill combos, but a lot of the videos that popped up were of the smash guy.
