Is it me or are both BlazBlue games just insanely difficult to play. I had both games and had a hard time pulling off the moves. The mechanics in both games suck really bad and the second game of the series Continuum Shift is even worse. Sure, they give you a brief tutorial on how to play, but even with that information, it doesn't help a single bit. I have tried online play and got smashed by good players through constant turtling and counter into combo tactics. I am usually a happy gamer and I don't hate fighting games, but this is an exception. Well this and Virtua Fighter. The normal mode arcade is just plain hard. The japanese creators of these games still have a lot to learn about how to make customers feel happy and enjoy them. The story mode is also very confusing. The only way to pull off good combos is through watching videos on youtube on how to do them because nowhere in the first or second game do they show you how, except of course the Limited Edition(s) of them, which by the way are not available at many stores. Screw you Aksys.

Beginner Mode, and if you can't do that, stop playing. Its already apparently that you aren't good at fighting games and lack the patience to learn how to play before rushing into fights with other players. Go back to the drawing board and reevaluate your ability.

MemberFor your information I am not bad at fighting games, I have played this game on the Hardest Difficulty and never lost a single round. I have beaten other players at my skill level, however I am speaking on behalf a beginner who has never played a fighting game in his/her life. I forgot to mention that the ranking system in the games is very slow so don't even bother with that(This is from very high speed internet service so don't tell me it works fine for you, I have tested my connection over 5 times) BlazBlue is not for everyone and is a total waste of time, not worth spending the money. I have more patience than you so don't waste your time giving me a negative reply. Peace be with you.

MemberIt's not nearly as hard as Suck Fighter IV. One of the dudes at GameStop and me have an ongoing debate. He says BlazBlue is too easy, I say Street Fighter IV is too hard.

Peace be with you.Okay, than the beginner who has never played a fighting game in his/her life will have to learn by playing, sometimes a lot. Just remember, the different genres are there for different types of gamers. Yes, BlazBlue is not for everyone, but the same goes for every other game in existence. Just because someone can kick everyone's butt in a shooter, doesn't mean that the said someone is great - or even half decent - at a fighter. Don't like BlazBlue, return it and get something different. Just don't complain about your bad time on the forums of the game, since that's just calling for attention and causes anger in the general community of people who play it. I, personally, have beaten BlazBlue:Continuum Shift and Calamity Trigger PSP and find them both to be great games, and I would suggest them to any fighting game fan - especially if they're fans of anime/manga as well.
Although, I'd like to point out that your anger is clearly shown in your post. So maybe you could use some of your said patience next time when posting.

MemberI love your justification of being "not bad at fighting games" and "more patient than you." You're entitled to your opinion, but you obviously came here just to troll for no reason. The game already appeals to a niche market. It's not intended for mass appeal, so it's perceived difficulty isn't going to really hurt it in sales. The fact is, no other fighting game offers you the tools necessary to get started like BlazBlue: CS does... and there was no limited edition in the U.S... the EU version didn't have any training disc. BlazBlue:CT did have it with the Limited Edition, but the Limited Edition was a free upgrade if you bought it in the first few shipments.
By the way, you probably just get frustrated way too easily. I don't believe for a second that you're on a soapbox on behalf of the newbie player because you're so altruistic. The most immature thing you can do is be dismissive and walk away from a debate that you start. Have fun with that.

MemberYes, a beginner who has never played a fighting game will have to learn by playing and I agree with you there, however, the time it takes to master a game should not take a very long time. In BlazBlue's case this is a long time. There is anger for a reason you know. Would you like to wait to get a bus for 10 minutes or would you rather wait for an hour. The choice is obvious. People like you only see the positive qualities and not the negative ones. You don't see the whole picture of the painting only the middle. For your information, Anime is not that great. Yes, there are a few titles that stand out, but the rest is utter trash. Just look at how they do each character's talking and lame expressions whenever something odd happens. It's just one frame being repeated over and over again. Overall American animation is way better and we have better movies that stand out and don't leave the audience confused, unlike the japanese animation, which make you have more questions than answers. Street Fighter was alright as a game, but there is a lot of stereotyping of people from other countries, which is a bad thing, and it is the same recycled stuff only with 3D. When will Japanese make a truly good fighter that appeals to everyone? Maybe never.

Beginner Mode. Tutorial Mode. Challenge Mode. There's even Unlimited characters if you're not that confident.
I doubt you're even good. What's your PSN? Let's see how good you really are. If you want to troll, go to GameFAQs or something.
And so what if it takes long to master BB CS? It does, for sure. This game is not pick-up-and-play anymore. It doesn't have to be, nor is it for you to say it should be.

Your latest reply made it obvious that you don't know what you're talking about, and your transparency will be obvious to anyone who reads this forum.

Someone forgot both :
Tutorial mode
and
Challenge mode
After ur done with that, and sucessefully completed them, ull acquire the combo knowledge. Same goes with Virtua Fighter and its Training mode.
Please, before getting angry, check all the modes available in the game.
Or
Pay 50$ per hour to one of our Blazblue pros to teach you over Xbox live, if Street fighter pros can do it, blazblue can ;)Posted 2 years ago # -

This isn't Street Fighter "lol World Tourney". It's much more complicated, unique, and more well-thought out.
There will never be a truly good fighter that appeals to everyone.

MemberWhen it comes to the training disc, I am not sure about Continuum Shift, but only the Limited Edition for Calamity Trigger had it (US version), and again there are only a limited amount of them, that's why it is pointless to learn the game. Like I mentioned before, not everyone has the limited edition release so get your facts straight. And again I am stating that the only source of training I could find was through youtube. Customers should be getting more bang for their buck to take their time to play their best and face the best, that's called true fighting. BlazBlue is just an odd version of Guilty Gear, which is probably even worse to learn. Look clearly at the mechanics of these games and compare them and then give a thoughtful analysis and give better explanations to prove your point. Here is an example, the air combos. Not everyone has the ability to successfully pull off an air combo no matter how hard they try, some can do it others cannot. Other games do not have air combos, which makes fighting more interesting. And no, I don't feel frustrated at all, not in the least. I am just stating facts.

Its kinda like saying:"No one should do the F-A-D-C cancel in SSF4 to make things more interesting since i cant do it."
Or
"No one should link their comboes into distortion drives since i can do it no matter how hard i try."
Or even (this may be going a bit too far)
" No one should be able to do the 2x360 degree distortion finish since i cant do it."

I am just stating facts.Your facts are a bit flawed, i can agree that the high tier gameplay is a tad bit "-your mother is a classy lady- faced" since you end up in fights where you HAVE TO KNOW YOUR ULTIMATE LONG COMBO and KNOW HOW TO BYPASS THE OPPONENT'S RECOVERY PERIOD but at that point, you use and abuse your insta guard to parry (look it up on the tutorial). But overall, it sounds like more like an angry rant than valid fact listing.

MemberI knew this was going to happen. People loving this sorry excuse of a game, and putting me down, it was inevitable. Yes, please add more responses for me not liking this game. That's just my opinion, lol. What? so I don't have a right to my opinion from having fun playing fighting games? Boo, to your opinion, lol. Next time, and there will be a next time, when the 3rd installment of BlazBlue comes out, I am going to test and see if these japanese people made improvements. If they have, then I will give a positive opinion about the game, but for now it is looking negative on both sides of the spectrum. My purpose for posting here was to insult the developer's work based how they made the game and I did my job. Maybe I should have a voting session on who likes this game and who despises it, lol. That will be interesting. ha ha ha ha, ha ha ha ha.

Your argument are just being rightfully refuted as you no longer have any answers and prefer trolling around instead of keeping a serious argument. It was inevitable.
Thanks for the laugh : )
