    Ok, so here's the thing. A fighting game is mean't for the fighting gameplay itself. Not the story...Everyone is talking how the story mode is great but they don't realize this game is actually not balanced.

    Yes it's pretty. Yes it's fast. Is it balanced? No. There's still a lot of work to be done. People compare the other fighting game stories suck. Guess what, the fighting games with    Ok, so here's the thing. A fighting game is mean't for the fighting gameplay itself.

    Yes it's pretty. Yes it's fast. Is it balanced? No. There's still a lot of work to be done. People compare the other fighting game stories suck. Guess what, the fighting games with bad stories have better gameplay. It's all about balance.

    Also, games like this have the worst community. Full of trolls and non supportive people.

    This series needs an entire makeover and the community needs to be more mature. There's too much praise for the story and balance issues that are "fixed". Play at your own risk...or wait until the price drop.    … Expand

    The joy of Blazblue is figuring out what each character's gimmick is, and how it can be used to augment their moveset. [Issue#148, p.110]

    With BlazBlue: Chrono Phantasma Arc System Works has worked hard in order to evolve the series with brand new mechanics, new characters and a lot of interesting tools. The lack of a good balance between the characters is the main issue with this fighting game.
