      No, you were fishing for a bug to dismiss the point the guy was making, but the issue is deeper than that.

      I play a bunch of fighting games and I can tell you I can feel combos not working going from PC to PlayStation or from a DS4 to a DS5 or from my PC gaming monitor to my TV.

      That didn’t use to be the case. Timing could be different in consoles or arcades because those were entirely different games, but if you could do a thing on one TV with one controller you could do it on any TV with any controller on that game. That’s not the case anymore.

      And yet “react to a visual cue in something the enemy does and press the button in a small frame window” is a much, much more frequent core mechanic now than it was then.
