you asked me so I'm gonna ask you Why do I play Jam
I've owed you this response for a few weeks now! Sorry, bro.
People play fighting games for all kinds of reasons. I think you play them because you want to beat people up real bad. You get all giddy at big damage swings caused by combos that have a real sense of physicality to them - this is also why you like Potemkin and Sol. Consequently, you don't want a lot of complexity getting in the way of that - involved setplay feels like one more hoop to jump through to get to the things you actually want out of the game.
Jam is well-positioned to offer you what you want out of a fighting game. She's got big gorilla normals that are also super fast, a limited but brutishly effective gap-closing toolset, and oki that doesn't need set-up to soft counter wakeup options. She gives you those big-excitement moments for a minimum of effort.
Also you think she's a cutie.
