Extremely Unbalanced / Rant
Let me start by saying that no i'm not salty because i lose or something lol, i'm not bad at playing the game, i labbed for years against every single character to memorize the moves and how to punish them properly (currently A4 Groh main) /// The game is very underwhelming on literally every single aspect, clipping problems (one of kilik victory animations is the perfect example), "terrible" hit boxes, mechanics that doesn't even work against certain characters, characters that are way too safe, easy ring outs from almost anywhere and characters that have way too many help from the devs to save their behinds from losing (Taki invincible safe finisher, auto Gi on nightmare's finisher + explosion GI for noobs, yes i know that you need to attack low dud, it's just terrible that the other player is forced to limit his/her moveset just because the devs are lazy clowns that can't make videogames, Yoshimitsu is the perfect def of way too safe btw, Amy is completely broken followed by Raphael), graphics wise is awful for the year that it came out, eck the old DOA5LR has better graphics which is pathetic ah ah, the music is ok i guess, the voice acting is cringe worthy expecially the english one for the customs, story mode is ok, Libra of Souls could have been done better, the new characters are meh and why no new female characters? soo lazy, also they copy and pasted the assets and animations from SC4-5 without any changes/improvements, some verticals have tracking and sometimes guaranteed punishes misses for no reason ruining my combos/punish, the game is terrible overall, the stages are lifeless empty awful squares, even the creation suite is a joke, 5/10 - MY PERSONAL OPINION/RANT, you are free to disagree without problems and yes if asked about something i'l go more in depth if you want.

I like it too and i agree with what you said but in my opinion this is the most unbalanced one atm.

I don't care so much about the balancing as I do the "female" faces.

It's kinda weird how the game teases us with decent character artwork which then gives way to the actual CG characters which look nothing like the artwork.

And the female character creation faces... Noty.

Also all the single player modes suck too. :(

You do you, and I hope you find a fighting game that you can truly enjoy. Only thing I'd disagree with is when you say that DOA is harder than SC6. Soul Calibur is one of the easier fighting games to play, but I think DOA is even easier still. But maybe I'm just cut out for that one. Gotta get back into it though as it's been a while. Good luck!

Competitively the pros agree everyone is viable and no one is extremely op. This is probs the best balanced FG in this gen.

if you can't recognize quality when you see it, it's your problem

The game is extremelly balanced ma dud, much more then the competition, noone really agrees on top tiers anymore and the bottom tiers suddenly are considered really strong every few months.
Also you can't complain about balancing and then say SC4 was better. That game was broken by balance issues alone

All right, let me answer to your comment in order. "I hope you find a fighting game that you can truly enjoy" - I don't need to find it, i already did, DOA5LR is 100 times better than this gameplay wise / "Only thing I'd disagree with is when you say that DOA is harder than SC6" - ??? i never said that it's harder, all i said is that DOA requires real skills compared to this one, / "Soul Calibur is one of the easier fighting games to play, but I think DOA is even easier still" - I agree about the first part, i disagree about the rest / anyway thank you for your comment and good luck to you too, have a nice day/evening :steammocking:

I actually can unlike a certain someone :D, at least i can be honest while still loving the game/franchise.

I have to disagree about the first part, the mechanics and the abysmal frame advantages of some characters prevents this to be a balanced fighting game.

I like Libra Of Souls but yeah they could have done a better job, it feels kinda off, you can almost feel the low effort while playing it but maybe it's just me.

Some charrs are really + on hit, but it doesn't mean they are automatically op.
Geralt is often seen as mid-high tier while having really horrible frame advantages and yoshimitsu who you could argue is the best charr in the game has only a handfull of moves that are + at all
