Not understanding the complaints or bad reviews

[Kankaku]

yeah there are some bugs and whatnot but this game has a full story with actual animated cutscenes that aren't just slideshows. Interesting combat and good music.

Once the bugs are ironed out I hope you all change your review scores. The devs don't deserve this.

I said this on a similar thread but I will say it again:

Tested on three pcs, including a $5k workspace designed for game development. Experiencing critical game breaking issues and on top of that, never received my pre-order bonus from steam. As a game developer myself, I don't pull punches on my reviews. Other people might be able to give them space but as someone who works in the industry, I can't. This is QA 101.

People might fault me for that but I fully expect people to do the same to the games I am a part of. Part of the review process is honesty, because it allows the devs to bug fix and be better. No release should have to be this bad. QA testing exists for a reason. Players shouldn't have to be QA testers, the vast majority aren't qualified.

Have anyone played online mode, what do you guys think about the online mode? I'm thinking about getting the game

[davmaycry]

It works nearly perfectly fine on my pc with RTX 5080, 7200 mbps ssd, 13600k i5, playing on max settings but 1440p because I can't figure out how to go 2160p. The only issue is very minor, it's a graphical glitch where some rainbow lines pop up on loading screen.

I'm 2.6 hours in without a single crash.

The level of issues (constant crashes, etc) show they didn't properly tested it out before launch or worse : hoped you'd test it out for them, as usual with cashgrabs (see Sparking Zero)

If you can't see why people complain, damn . . . LMAO

[TrashPanda]

I've seen people say that it crashes to the point it's like KLK IF levels of unplayable on PC so I do get the frustration (really hope this doesn't kill the game and the devs bail on it like with KLK).

Granted, I'll say that I play on steam deck and haven't had any issues (though that could purely be luck).

So far (only like an hour and a half ish since I had to go to work) my only notes/issues are a bit shallow with pvp and thus aren't really important.

I just hope the devs fix it quickly like they say they're trying to do since though my experience has great so far, it obviously isn't the norm.

sht up with ur nonsense.. of course weh change our mind but what never change is the bad experience on their launches or patches.. wake up and dont write ur nonsense down for few clicks and attention, tz

[Kankaku]

I get wanting your game to work right when you first purchase it but you all need to understand that there is a huge swathe of different PC builds. It would be near impossible to optimize for all of them without extensive play tests. Which most Japanese game development companies don't do unless it's for network stress testing.

Whenever you want to buy a game on launch day in the age of the Internet. You should never expect it to work flawlessly day one. If you do, buy it on console. There they only have to optimize for a handful of builds with the lowest tier being targeteted. That's your best chance.

Hopefully this doesn't kill the game.

Outstanding to read such BS in 2025 . . .

If the first 400 reviews all were negative and all talked about crashes, that means they didn't do the most basic QA tests.

Period.

They just used you, fanboys, as beta testers.

There's a reason stuff like that didn't happen, before "day one patch" days / DLC days / online play being the norm. PC or console games alike.

Wake up

Wake up

Logic apparently has escaped you because what you said makes no sense. Beta test for whom? The absent players after the poor reviews kill the game?

[托尼·索普拉诺]

I don't understand this mindset at all. They released a broken game that costs $59.99. Its supposed to be a premium game, yet released on PC in an unplayable state for most people. This is a glorified ps4 game, and they couldn't optimize it enough for release. It's a joke they absolutely do not need or deserve your defense. These devs/companies arent your friends, stop treating them as such.

Toxic positivity has basically killed the anime fighter genre. Historians will study how anime fans managed to continue to pre-order rushed games with technical issues time and time again over the course of the last decade.

Psychologist will be baffled at how Anime fans manage to defend broken games for $0/hr

Games with horrible netcode, next to no story content, PC technical issues, literal lies about the content

Jump Force, JJK Cursed Clash, One Justice, Sparking Zero, Storm Connections, JoJo All Star Battle, Naruto Shinobi Strikers, One Piece Burning Blood

How many times are we going to get burned until ya'll stop buying this slop en masse

[ErmES6]

bro I can't open the game. This is so bad at the launch of a new game.

They sold us a product that when you open any mode, it crashes.
How can you say it's a good game?

Sure, if it works for you I can understand. But for most people it doesn't work.

My pc: rtx 5080, ryzen 7 9800x3d, 32gb ram ddr5 and this game crashes. Are you kidding?

Obviously I don't want to argue with you, but the situation is terrible and embarrassing. And I say this as a software engineer.

As a software engineer you should know it's easier to optimize for 4 systems vs multiple hundreds or am I wrong to assume that? They should've beta tested the game prior to release but we're past that now.

If no one wants any anime games anymore outside of the actual slop. Which is gacha games then yeah, proceed on course I guess.

[LostBankai]

The devs may not deserve this, sure. Bandai Namco, on the other hand, deserves every single flop it gets
