I played Castlevania on PSP but I never finished the game, too difficult because you had to beat 2 boss at once.

Like the Gorgon and the werewolf. Symbolic monsters that I read in the children's stories "The Great Adventure".

These guys? Here's how you do it

As most of you probably already know, r/MUGEN is owned by MUGEN Archive and as such bans people for the same frivolous reasons as that site, blocks all discussion of other MUGEN communities, and has all links in the sidebar point to MUGEN Archive. 

A few years ago, a couple of people opened up the subreddit r/MUGENFreedom as an alternative subreddit people can post to. Unfortunately, the only active mod deleted their reddit account a few months ago due to the API changes (which is fair and I don't blame them).

Since I felt an alternative was still important to have on the platform, I've taken ownership of r/MUGENFreedom. It's been given a fresh coat of paint, new rules, flairs, all the good stuff. If you want to join a subreddit dedicated to MUGEN, please come on by.

Anything changed on thoughts of 7z support yet? 7-Zip is free and open source, and often has better compression than rar, so outside of some janky technical reasons, it seems like a bit of a strange choice to allow WinRAR but not 7-Zip...

It's especially good when bundling different older versions of the same character, while WinRAR compresses each sprite/sound/etc file separately, 7-Zip seems to see the duplicate data and merge it, often reducing the size as though there was only one copy in there. I download a lot of stuff so I've had a lot of test cases, and most of the time 7z gives the better compression ratio (and zip is pretty badly compressed lol)

Also Windows 11 has now added native support for RAR and 7z: https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/microsoft/windows11-getting-native-support-for-7-zip-rar-and-gz-archives/ .

To speak frankly here, there is literally no reason to support RAR but not support 7Z. Everyone who can open RAR files can also open 7Z files, and 7Z is generally a better format. 7-Zip is also free software while WinRAR is technically not. Having 7-Zip installed lets you right click and compress as 7z immediately while it takes extra steps to compress as RAR. All around it'd be a lot more convenient if I could upload 7z here as that's what I prefer to use everywhere else. 

It's between Dragon's Dogma Dark Arisen and Castlevania: Symphony of the Night.

I have a lot more history with SOTN and have played it far more, but Dragon's Dogma hits so many of the marks of what I actually want in a game. I can't wait for Dragon's Dogma 2. 

I'm still trying to work out a good final boss for my build. I don't want it to be one that's already a final boss in a fighting game. I like Asura, the fusion of God Rugal and Shin Akuma, but he's not very strong especially when compared to the likes of Onslaught or Abyss. But I don't want it to be so strong that it can't reasonably be defeated by players.  Not gonna lie, I'm kind of considering God Orochi as the ultimate final boss.

you gave us a mystery box full of boogers? that doesn't seem very nice

I like Asura (The fusion of Rugal and Akuma). It's a character we saw briefly at the end of Capcom vs SNK 2 that never got realized canonically since then, but we got it in MUGEN. It feels like a perfect MUGEN final boss. Rugal already feels like a perfect boss for any tournament setting, and a multiversal one at that is pretty good. Add in his God Rugal powers and Shin Akuma's power mixed in to make Asura and it just seems really cool. Unfortunately, he just isn't "boss-y" enough to compete with a lot of other MUGEN characters. A MUGEN boss should be the boss of all bosses, and Asura is actually decently balanced for a boss character and his AI isn't that harsh either.

Okay, I'm going to make it easy for you all:

It is something you can eat, but it is not something you are supposed to eat because it isn't food and is disgusting

Nope.  Us humans can't eat plankton.

Well now I'm confused.

On a similar note, when I forget I have a certain character installed, let's say Rare Akuma for example, and then run into that certain character all of a sudden

this is one thing I dig about IKEMEN, that we can also exclude characters from Survival there too so that we don't get our whole run stopped by an Akumus Rarus 

On the other hand, I think it's kinda funny having him in massive rosters. Out of 1000+ characters, encountering Rare Akuma lives up to his name.

Every software supports zips not 7z you need to download a whole new program to get 7z and winzip can lead to random viruses and crap

Yeah, definitely don't use WinZip, but 7-Zip is free and good software. I noticed you allowed RAR which also isn't supported on Windows unless you install new software. WinRAR also opens .7z files. I don't know any software that opens .rar but not .7z

7z is accepted but will be converted to zip once spotted

If you don't mind the question, I've been wondering why this is the case? Is there something about zip and rar that's preferred over 7z? I use 7-Zip myself and find 7z convenient and afaik every software that can open rar files can also open 7z files
