Positives:
- EXCELLENT gameplay, with great depth, fluid movement, tight controls, and now easier super moves and combos for beginners. The most important element in a fighting game, and this game excels at it.
- Timelessness. We are already in the second season and the game receives updates, new characters, costumes, and stages at regular intervals, and it seems like this will continue for a long time. It doesn't seem like it will repeat the phenomenon of Super Street Fighter IV, which made Street Fighter IV obsolete and forced people to repurchase the game. It is also positive that all the "goodies" are available for purchase with fight money.
- Good (although it takes a bit long to find an opponent) online mode. With my 50 Mbps VDSL, I haven't noticed any lag that makes it unplayable. Additionally, it is cross-platform!
- Beautiful art design. Personally, I have mixed feelings about it. I would have preferred a more realistic depiction and perspective in the graphics (a bit more towards MK and Tekken), but for what it is, it is very beautiful.
- Quite a lightweight game, it can run on average systems.
- Value for money. I bought it for €15 and I believe that over time it will more than pay for itself.

Negatives:
- Very little content. The game started without a story mode, without an arcade mode, with an inadequate survival and challenge mode. Apart from playing matches online, the game couldn't keep you occupied for long.
- Terrible Story Mode, both the overall story and the individual character stories. Uninspired, childish, a bit lacking.
- Small and qualitatively mediocre roster. The game started with 16 characters. Many fan favorites have not been added to the game (thankfully Akuma was eventually added) and the new characters are mostly annoyingly uninteresting, with a few exceptions (Ed, Laura). I also didn't like at all how they handled the return of Charlie Nash.

In short, the game is very well-crafted in terms of its gameplay, but it feels rushed and unfinished. We hope for the addition of new characters, a better offline mode (arcade, come back), and if these things happen, we will be talking about a complete and very good fighting game.

- There is no arcade mode.
- The single player was not available from the beginning.
- The online mode still lags even with 5 bars.
- The FPS is locked at 60.
- The DLC only provides characters, not levels and extra costumes.

At least its price has dropped incredibly within a year
