I wasn't even thinking of buying this can of awesome sauce until a friend mentioned that it had online play. Being out of the loop and forgetting that fighters nowadays were all modern-like, I jumped at the idea of having another game to play with friends. $60 and a week later, I'm liking it a tonnnn. It's a very solid and well-rounded game.
I started off playing it without even really reading through the instruction manual (still haven't completely), other than the character bios. Then I just read through their moves lists while doing parts of story mode (which is both awesome and/or hilarious at times) and practiced as I went. I'm not very good and more or less still experimenting with the characters, but I think it'd be cool to practive with Ragna, Noel, and Rachel more. Litchi and Bang (BANG BANG BANNNGGG) are also awesome.
Really, even though apparently the roster is small compared to Guilty Gear or other mainstream fighters, the various fighter archetypes are present and Drives really add a good sense of depth. Having only 12 characters actually gives me a bit of relief... since I think I'd feel overwhelmed with anymore. And if you even glimpse a tournament video... it just looks like a completely different game. So insane.
So has anyone else played the game or thought of buying it? If neither, you should consider it! If the former, what has your experience been with it? Favorite characters?
Please don't tell me Shadow's the only one!I bought it for the PS3, by the way. It'd be cool to have a few more friends to play with and hopefully grow a bit together.
