Finally picked this up! Just had time to finish the tutorial and play through Story mode with Haomaru. Loving the feel of the fighting. The high risk high reward , strategic gameplay feels great. Makes the game intense, even when fighting the AI.
I’ve heard lots of bad things about how the game plays online in the Samurai Shodown subreddit. A false positive disconnect bug in Ranked mode , lag, archaic setup for casual rooms that leads to people being stuck without even being able to spectate...
Hopefully that stuff doesn’t affect me as much or it’s people just bitching?
I don’t see myself playing in casual rooms much. Probably mostly playing ranked . That false positive disconnect bug sounds kind of bad though. Hopefully they patch that soon.
Still the game is quite beautiful and I’m totally glad I picked it up. Look forward to spending much time with it . If anybody wants to throwdown, feel free to add me on PSN.
