You'll be fine, I'm terrible at fighting games and it's only the combo challenge for Hitomi that I was able to barely get with a few hours of practice for the Ultimate version. :p

Wife is playing the story.. It's so bad, lol.

What impressed me about the story mode was just how much attention to detail was given to really random things. The amount of detail in Zack's helicopter, the water physics in confined spaces (when people are drinking at the bar), the way the pool balls move with the proper 'weight,' etc.

I dunno, small things like that have always impressed me, especially when games that are actually built around strong cinematic plots (RPGs) don't bother with similar things.

If DOA story cut the filler and focus on the Ninja Story only it would be better with a 1 hour or 2 Story. Everyone get endings on arcade mode and call it a day.

I like the story mode they way they did it but they should have character endings for arcade mode. Best of both worlds!

CG cutscenes take too much space if you want to download the game tho... 1080p CG cutscenes eat a lot of space.

I've been trying to practice holds, because they are by far my biggest weakness. I am absolutely terrible at them and usually just avoid using them, outside of spammers that is.

Just out of curiosity, what does everyone use for blocking? The hold button or holding back? I've always used holding back for blocking, but it seems to be easier to hold (or at least easier for me to get the commands out) when I am pressing the hold button for blocking. I guess it is just a preference thing, but I need all the help I can get on holds.

You should ask Xion. Dude's a psychic at holds.

I press the button as its more comfortable for me to switch up from regular to low defense that way.

Don't overly rely on blocks because some characters who force you into countering will throw you for a shit ton of damage, Tommy is very good at that.
 
So let me get this right. To get the rest of the Characters I would need to either buy the Pack for 50.99 or buy a character.

Then to get the story mode I would have to buy the Story Mode DLC for 13.99

The all other cosmetic items would be vary in price or I buy the Ultimate Pack for 92.99

Then if I wanted to get the NEW DLC for this year I would get the Season Pass.

Is that right?

If you want to get the rest of the characters and the storymode you are better paying for Last Round with Bonus instead of buying things separate.
 
So I was just scrolling google now on my phone and a story came from dual shockers came up claiming destructable costumes via senran kagura crossover. It sounds like a no brainer obvious idea but I haven't heard anything about it until now. Team Ninja is really making it hard for me to resist buying this game again.

Yeah, I have been enjoying the f2p version but I want more! Also, I had a lot of stuff purchased for the ps3 version but I wanted to change my psn name so I started a new psn account on my ps4 so there's that...

I'll cave and buy it soon, the destructable costumes would garuntee that.
