Prediction of the negative reviews

[La Gourde de Gaara]

1. "Netcode is bad. I always disconnect. Game plays in slow motion."
2. "No crossplay, Multiplayer will die in 1 month"
3. "60 fps lock in 2025"
4. "No widescreen support in 2025"
5. "Roster is too small"
6. "Too many DLC characters and too expensive"
7. "Story mode is too short"
8. "XYZ system is broken"

"Too much cheese, too much spam"

1. If this first one is true; I'll admit that that's pretty bad if online play was the strong desire of those players, and thus would be a fair reason to thumbs down for a review. I personally am mainly in it for the story, as I know I'll probably be absolutely cooked in online matches, so it likely wouldn't affect me much. But that would be a pretty bad situation for those interested in online play.

2. The no crossplay sucks ♥♥♥♥. I don't think it's worth a negative review personally, but boy that sucks.

3. Is this confirmed? Besides, more frames per second than exists animation frames wouldn't add anything if everything is only animated in 60 fps. And 60 fps is still great. I hope no one actually would see this as a huge problem.

4. The hell does widescreen support even mean? Like the ugly version of movies with the massive black bars? Or do you have a longer rectangle monitor than the rest of us?


5. Not worth a negative review, but if one feels this way, it is worth shedding a tear over. No playable Orihime.

Side note, but no playable Orihime seems like a way better reason to downvote than anything else aside from bad netcode.

6. Oh boy do I see people saying that. It's like clockwork.

7. I feel the fear for that I admit. But I like the Naruto Storm games and their story length, so I'm not too worried.

8. Broken can be fun. Heh.

For me, I predict complaints about the combos. The combos seem a bit simplistic. For me personally, someone who loves adrenaline fueled action, even if repetitive, that won't be a problem. But if people are seeking deep intricate combos like a lot of 2D fighters deliver; I could see that being a disappointment. As so far it seems the furthest you can extend a combo is with a Flash Step to start the same combo over before an enemy recovers. I may love the Naruto Storm games, but I know how disheartening it is to literally have only three combos on the ground and one in the air is. So if the combos are as simplistic as they're being shown; I could see some people being low key upset by that.

Also no joke character Kon like the DS game Blade of Fate. 0/10. I wanna be able to waste my entire meter to make Kon shout "Bankai! Like I can do that!" That's all spending the meter does. Also buff Kon for his Awakening would just low key be funny.

my only issue would be widescreen support but I wouldnt give a negative review lol I love bleach.

[Nerio]

Let's be honest 1 and 2 are very valid points. I don't want this game to become a discord fighter almost immidiately.

[Hema]

1 is a legit reason.

2 can be as well.

3 is normal for fighters.

4 guessing you mean ultra wide since widescreen is the default, it doesn't affect many people, but probably ll be modded, if not then can be a legit reason for those people.

5 idk, roster looks good enough for a first entry.

6 too many dlc characters? i feel there is too few, just 4 characters, agree on too expensive.

7 it's supposed to be ~30h.

8 would be legit reason.

Oh I will be absolutely sent if this gets a sequel later. Especially if said sequel manages to add more depth to the combo system while keeping the core intact.

funny how every single one of them is valid.

I only care for the single player

[Righteous Avenger 993]

I think the optimization is worthy of critique. You shouldn't need a 7800 XT for 1080p 60 fps quality mode.

I'm looking forward to the reviews that the girls are over sexualized and game is/ isn't woke.

[Mango]

Something is going on cause IGN and all the other reviews would’ve had scores up by now. Make you wonder what the devs are hiding? Bet this game coming in hot.

[Muad san]

Congrats,

they're worse

[KashKey]

god i wish this was all that happened

[Shish]

9. PC Port is so bad the game is literally unplayable with constant crashing.

Wait till people are able to actually play the game first
