1872: Fighting Vipers 2 \\ Dreamcast \\ Bahn playthrough (Easy), thoughts on this vs FV1 (PS2)
Playing through Fighting Vipers 2 for Dreamcast as Bahn aka Gengis Bahn III, in Flycast widescreen on PC!

I said at the end of the video that although I was feeling FV1 more than 2, I still need to give 2 more time, try more of the characters, etc. But thinking about it more, I can't shake the feeling that it gives me of being weightless and generic; it just stands out a lot less to me than 1. And the graphics really get flattened out--in a bad way--by the absence of the Model 3 hardware specular highlights on the character models that you can see in the emulated version in Like a Dragon Gaiden: The Man Who Erased His Name. (Oh and the other thing that isn't great in that version, besides the laggy input feeling and bordered display, is that there are fake scanlines over the game, and you can't turn them off.)
So I think I'm gonna give this one a rest for a bit.
It is WAY easier to do Bahn's flying uppercut move here than in FV1--although, I couldn't seem to do the double-flying-uppercut I thought he had (the CPU definitely hit me with it in FV1 for PS2, and I saw it in the move list in the FV1 PS3 port).
