This is probably the most accessible fighting game of this generation. Execution is relatively easy in this game, plus there'll be a huge number of other beginners to play against online. When you play against people you're going to lose a lot, which is something that everyone goes through. The important thing is not to beat yourself up for losing or making mistakes. Just concentrate on learning and practicing the basics (there'll be guides and tutorials in the next few days) and you'll gradually get better and win more.

I'm not interested in constructive criticism, believe me.
The trials are really really disappointing even coming in expecting really basic stuff. They went super super basic to the point there's not even one Actual Combo you'd do. Hopefully they add Advanced Trials or something at some point, but I think it's not good to not have at least some meat in that area.

i'm really curious to know if her generic ball projectile special can be dashed through or not. If it can then she'll probably have the worst assist in the whole game and she'll likely struggle against projectiles in matchups where she can't steal a beam or something.

That just means autocombos are the correct way to play the game. Manual combos are cheating.

do the trials at least cover attacking as a team with like using assists to combo or tagging to continue a combo?

Music is the outlier but character/stage/options is pretty regular, especially for arcsys.

my suspicion is that the trials are super basic to avoid scaring noobies. While we'll all be using assist calls and doing other dumb poo poo in a week tops.

DISPEL MAGIC!

I still don't know what to buy this on in all honesty, PS4 or PC.

If this is anything like other Arcsys games (Guilty Gear and Blazblue) apparently Lobbies are more the norm on PC and ranked on console.

So probably PC, right?

Every fighting game I've treated like Street Fighter 2 for the past 25 years, and this seems real easy to learn. We'll both probably get our asses kicked by try hards, but we're going to have a lot of fun.
