    Are you feeling despair in this year of our lord 2022? Are you looking for a fighting game that's both serious and accessible in the hopes ofAre you feeling despair in this year of our lord 2022? Are you looking for a fighting game that's both serious and accessible in the hopes of virtually punching the frustration out of your soul? Confused by terms like meaty and BnB? Do you identify as a filthy casual?

    You looked at Guilty Gear. How are you supposed to learn all these weird setups? Bedman? More like Bad, man.
    You tried KOF. You say you can't win any matches because you can't pull of j.C, cl.C, f+A, [BC] cl.C, qcf+AC, dp+BD, qcb+ACx3, qcf~hcb+P~qcfx4+A? Git gud you scrub.
    You went to Street Fighter, but didn't actually make it into a match after watching 12 consecutive ads for Nissin Cup noodles.
    You checked out BlazBlue and some other anime fighters, but you're not a perv or a weeb so you hated them.
    Smash? Stop touching me inappropriately, you weirdo.

    TIME FOR FIGHTING EX LAYER (FEXL for serious players, and Fexxle for us n00bs).

    Fexxle is the perfect game for a disgusting beginner such as myself. Can't link attacks properly? Weak-medium-strong attacks chain. Can't do full circle grappling moves? Use the progressive input mode and pull those moves off. Have a hard time managing your super, ultra, hyperdrive, guard and burst gauges? There's only one gauge for supers. Your footsies suck? TOO BAD.

    And if you're actually serious about shedding the scrub label, you can woodshed in the "Expert Room", basically Street Fighter's Trials mode, and then hit the Training Room with its decent dummy options. The Training Room even has a Kumite mode, which is good because I now hear Jean-Claude Van Damme saying "Kumite" in my head every time a new opponent appears.

    There's enough depth for serious players (or so I've been told), yet it's still a lot of fun for bad/average players (I'm telling you). It's not perfect though. The Expert Room only shows skill names, and not their inputs. How am I supposed to know what Shinkyaku-Geki is? Kyakuhougi? Crouching Heavy Kick? Come on Arika, throw me a bone. Pullum has annoying sound effects and Sanane's cry is grating. There are no subtitles for battle intros and victory speeches, so I have no idea what's going on. The clearly non-native english speaker saying "FAI-DING EEEE EKSSS LAYURRRR" at the title sounds cheap. But I don't care, I like the game anyway.

    And for the non-scrubs? There's rollback. (Note to the scrubs: you don't need to know or care what this means) If it were actually possible to get into an online match, it would be perfect! But remember, this is 2022.    … Full Review »

    Single player content is non-existent, weak arcade mode and the game feels like a rush-job...
