This is a pure fighter, not xenoverse scrub fighter. Different games.

Easy to pick up, but it's going to take some dedication to get good at. So far I think the game is fairly balanced, there are some oddities here and there but it's definitely one of the most balanced 2D fighters on the market right now. So if you keep getting pummeled by something, it doesn't mean it's broken - it just means you don't know how to handle a said move that is wrecking you.
No. Why would it have open world?

It's MvC tag system with Guilty Gear and Blazblue combat mechanics coupled with projectiles derived from the PS2 Budokai series. Directly comparing it to the Budokai series beyond that makes little sense because Budokai was a 3D fighter, this is a 2D one.

The game is designed to be the "Overwatch" of 2D fighters, where anyone can pick it up and have fun playing.

Yes, I'm talking about Budokai - developed by Dimps. Budokai Tenkaichi isn't even a fighting game, no one gives a shit about that.

All of them were 3D fighters:



Proof Budokai 1 - Frieza just sidestepped left at 0:08.


Proof Budokai 2 - Both Cell and Goku sidestepped left and right at the beginning of the match.


Proof Budokai 3 - Goku sidestepped right at 0:23 to avoid Cell's kamehameha.
I think you are mistaken about what a 2D and 3D fighter is?

I think it's extremely fun for the casuals. You can indeed mash buttons and get your fun out of this game, but it won't get you out of the "kids pool" to put it bluntly.

I mean casual or not, it's essential to learn some of the very basic fundamentals of the game. Knowing how to block highs, mids and lows, learning that dragon rush spamming can be easily countered, learning how and when to teleport, these are extremely basic stuff. You don't have to learn the frame data, you don't have to understand "footsies" and you don't have to dwell with advanced strings and combos - but learning the fundamentals will prolong your fun with this game.

Vegito blue is confirmed.
UI Goku is not.

Most people concur that the Hori mini is a terrible stick. Too small, slides all over the place. Hopefully you'll find some fun out of it.

Nothing is cheaper than a Hori mini.
But a Qanba drone doesn't cost that much more - https://www.play-asia.com/qanba-drone-arcad...stick/13/70al3l

Unfortunately, the Hori mini simply does not give you a proper impression of a full sized stick in any way other than the lever - which isn't even that good to begin with.

Also full sized sticks don't cost a thousand. A Hori RAP V only costs RM499.

Welp, if you insist - go ahead. Just telling you from experience.
It's the same complain every single time when someone jumps from pad to stick and they start out with the mini. Within a couple of months, they trash it (and it's not just because it's small, the lever is just subpar which leads to a lot of mis-inputs).

So, up to you man. Hope you'll enjoy.

A rant!
bought the full game since day 1 BUT!

why do we need to pay RM19 for just 1 new character? and subscribe PSN for online battle?

Developers are exploiting end users with Lootbox and DLCs these days. I miss the older days when we have a full game which is really a FULL game.

Anyone still playing this?? How's the online community
