This game is fun af, but it’s beating your meat with lemon juice type of fun.
Been hovering high Grand Lotus, low Chosen for a while now and at that rank the more frustrating nuances of the game become very apparent. I couldn’t tell you what character I hate to play against the most, for the first time in any fighting game I find myself saying “fuck I gotta fight a/an [character]” for the entire roster which is derivative of the amazing job the dev did with balance (seriously not a single character feels bad, they are all very solid).
My issue is I dislike neutral or find it frustrating. Every match feels like a contest of who can swat the mosquito of the screen first. And you gotta do this with very weak anti airs (depending on the character honestly, with aang slow ass buttons I’m not swatting anything). For example you face a zaheer and this dude is jiggling on the top corner of the screen and my job is to constantly chase this dude down like he owes me money. Finally get to him and he skedaddles away by neutral flowing while flipping you off. Don’t even get me started with Azula or Korra. And this is my experience for almost every character. My sanity can’t take it, im doing j.5Cs in my dreams!
This is one of the better fighting games in a while, reminds me of when dbfz first came out, but I’m putting a restraining order on it. Gonna go try out City of Wolves or some shit lmao.
