    Online is unreliable but otherwise this game is fantastic! Tons of options, a sizable roster, and deep, fast paced 2-D fighting make this an incredibly satisfying diversion. If you like playing fighting games in single player or local 2-player, this a must-purchase. So glad I gave it a try!

    To be fair I already played this game for quite some time 10 or so years ago so I may have a nostalgic/unbiased opinion on this game.
    Anyway the key elements of this game are unique and complex mechanics, combat fairness, strangely unique background music and Type-Moon characters/lore.
    Game's graphics are old and cheap, even if well animated, but that's not why you're buying this game,    To be fair I already played this game for quite some time 10 or so years ago so I may have a nostalgic/unbiased opinion on this game.

    Game's graphics are old and cheap, even if well animated, but that's not why you're buying this game, since that would be mechanics.
    The game is definitely not user friendly: there's no proper tutorial, the combat system is cryptic and because of its own complexity I cannot recommend this game to casual players (unless you're playing with friends, casual players too). On the other hand if you're willing to study and learn from external resources things like moon stances, bnb (bread'n'butter in fighting game slang) and general attack strings of all characters, frame times, etc you will enjoy the deepness of Melty Blood combat system and the game as a whole.

    Melty Blood is one of the best fighting games (thinking eSport wise) of the past decade(s) and in my opinion should be on any fighting game enthusiast's library.

    TL;DR: You're buying this game because of its great/complex combat system and because of Type-Moon, not really targeted to casual players (read above for further explanations)    … Expand

    Great game, i played one of the previous versions, and i have to say, it was more than improved. And to add shiki from kara no kyoukai (garden of sinners) was a great plus for the game.

    If I had to choose just one game to play for the rest of my life, it would be Melty Blood. [07/2016, p.74]

    Despite a lackluster package surrounding the awe-inspiring gameplay, it’s a game that has stood the test of time and people who are passionate about fighting games owe it to themselves to pay it a visit.
