Picked this up today. Brand new for twenty bucks. It's some weird kinda fantasy RPG themed fighting game done by the guys that made Guilty Gear and BlazBlue. I think we might have talked about it briefly a long time ago, and I'm glad that I finally got to try it out. It's more down to earth than other Arc System games, but it kinda works for the better. It's still really juggle oriented though. Alot of the characters are completely insane BTW. Deathbringer Vs. Watson is a great example of this:

Just looked this up. Ordering it now on Amazon, along with either one of the Jake Hunter games or Theresia.

EDIT: It's $7 on Amazon, plus 3.99 shipping, for a total of $11.99.

It's not very good. Non-existent on-line play and a complete lack of balance make for a very poor fighter.

It has online play. What's the complaint? That there aren't enough people playing it, so you can't fight strangers online? Boohoo. Get some friends.

Laggy online and yes, nobody plays.

I have plenty of friends, but most don't share interest in the same kinds of games I do. Living in Bumfuck Idaho doesn't help to improve that situation. I'm decent at most fighters, which is more than enough to pound my friends into the dust without effort, so if I want to get good matches in I have to play online.

The game is seven dollars on amazon.com. I think it's excusable.

At $7, it probably is.

Ah, fair enough.

As for the gameplay:



BUNNY IN A WIZARD HAT. YOUR ARGUMENT IS INVALID.
