I'd advise you to wait for now, the PC port is awful and there are a lot of problems everywhere (stuttering, crashes, bugs). This could get you stuck and frustrated quite fast. Right now, it's really not in a good state.

The game itself would be fine otherwise, if you like fighting games with solo content.
Story mode is nice, with about 5-6h of content.
There's a lot of stuff to unlock (gear, costumes, artworks, videos, etc) through solo modes like towers, some kind of board game called Invasion.
I find PvP very basic, especially compared to SF6

I wish I could tell you more, but I'm stuck because of crashes all the time and I can't play more than 10 minutes per session.

My computer runs the game flawlessly except with a few crashes in invasion mode...which it is always when I try to enter a node and only like 1/20 nodes minimum so I never lose any progress just...slightly annoying when I get kicked out and have to re-open the game.

So I will wait until the devs release a patch, thank u so much for your feedback i really appreciate it. The invasion mode sounds good (i haven't seen a gameplay bc i want to experience myself first haha)

I would advise to wait for a cople moths at least,or even 1 year,if you not a hard fan.For now this port is borken mess.I personally cant play the game at all besides story campaign,my game just simply crashes in all of the modes. After great SF6 this port feels like a bad joke

Would u recommend buying SF6? I just played V and the ones from the arcade. How much time it takes to find people to play in online? uwu
So far so good for me, game is pretty fun overall and it seems I've been lucky not to have encountered any issues. Been hopping online a bit and I haven't had a laggy match so far (I hope the same goes for my opponents...). I did have one match that started with a black screen for a bit but then fixed itself and the actual set was fine.

If you're interested in playing online at all, now would be the time since the player base will lessen over time, and lots of new players so good chance to learn.

Unless you are a hardcore PVP player, I'd recommend waiting for NRS to add more content.
Aside from PVP the game is rather barebones.
- Customization is limited: in MK11 you could customize 3 items + outfit per character, now it is limited to just outfit+1 item per character. (Eg: for Mileena you can only change the Sai, but not her mask)
- Invasion is repetitive and boring and many of the mini-games that were present in previous games (test your luck, test your sight etc) are missing
- The Krypt has been replaced with a less interesting Shrine, which also runs out of items rather quick due to the lack of content.

The smart thing to do is just wait for about a year or two once all of the DLC content releases and you get everything included in a single bundle at a steep discount. Or you can pay full price now for a fraction of the same content and then be forced to buy again full price season pass later for the other stuff (they always have some of the best characters in DLC).

Definitely wait, it's just not worth the money in it's current state.
