Super glad you're legitimizing this game as an FG the way you are, it has a lot more depth than people think it does. I don't know if I'd call the game balanced outside DP battles, but its system is not as simple as it appears.

I've been playing Tenkaichi for ages, but I don't know why people get offended when others say Sparking Zero isn't a "fighting game". There's a tweet going around saying this has more in common with Tekken than Street Fighter, and unsurprisingly, he played neither.

I'm saying it helps the perception of the game's complexity that he's actually diving into the details of the fighting system. It's just generally good for how the game is perceived. The depth of this game deserves to be advertised. This Tenkaichi system is lowkey slept on just because it's an arena fighting game. If the game is legitimized in this way, it can actually help grow the competitive community of this game.

I play mostly classic FGs but picked this up cause I'm a DBZ fan (Funnily cause of DBFZ) and when going into training I could tell that this game probably gets INSANE at high levels The combos are oddly expressive, defensive options have a lot of layers, there's a ton of nuance in characters, more than you'd expect Even as someone who's likely mostly gonna play against CPUs or with friends I look forward to learning what's going on with this game

The clickbait bs going around with this game is spreading a lot of impractical mess, and it’s nice to see someone respect the actual interaction mechanisms. Even *if* those long combos were more effective, the damage falloff hits pretty hard. Simpler is better.

Just a little note- Against a player that has their super-counter timing down, there's literally no such thing as a true combo (even attacking from behind). It's difficult to pull off the timing, but it's also the most powerful defensive melee tool in the game.

The problem I have with so many fighting games, is that It feels like I have to mash multiple buttons just to get any combo out. Few fighting games are EVER clear about the timing of the button presses and when I try to do it in a normal sequence of presses it cancels itself because it was the wrong timing that it refuses to elabortate on. Edit: To add on this, latency can screw up your timing really easily compared to what you are used to in the base game, (looking at you smash bros). Ive had online games where I try to do a different combo trying to be not so predictable and punishable, only to have the game keep doing the same combos and making me easily readable, it's frustrating and super embarrassing when ur trying to practice with randoms when you look like such a noob when you're more confident than that.

I hope they change the "Z-Counter" in "Sparking Zero" because the mechanic is boring and repetitive with the constant repetition of a simple button check. At the very least, it would be good if they nerfed it so it costs more (for example 2 or more energy bars instead of just 1), or made the timing stricter-or maybe even added a new mechanic like a 'Z-Counter-Counter,' lol-to make it less repetitive. I definitely think the 'Z-Counter' is an issue in that regard. The rest of what I've seen seems pretty solid with enough depth.

I would assume the meta revolving around just a handful of canonically strong characters, i think the point of this game is adding all sorts of defensive mechanics just to prevent infinite combos or something too abusable in 1 side that they overlooked with the goal of the game looking like a spectacle, otherwise if something appears too abusable (even for this game's standards) it would give the game a Bad look day 1, i don't think the devs even want it to be competitive, just playable, the mechanics i feel are there just as a safeguard from something too broken showing up and being the 1 thing everyone does. So i don't think there will be a lasting competitive scene, i guess we will see, it is up to the community I think not even the other Budokai games had serious competitive scene compared to something like MK9 back in the day , there were combo videos and some people playing online but never heard of a hardcore scene
