What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
I dont like RTS games very much, always played SF for story and RPG part and this feels like too much RTS for me.
Everything else I am complaining about is +/- matter of taste, nostalgy or aesthetic details like autoattack animation or camera...but this is huge and real step back in gameplay itself compared to previous games - its just too simple.
If I had a chance to pick SF1 in this graphics I would never touch this - not becouse its bad game, it just shifted into something else and I personally prefer what it was at the beginning of series.
The game is fully dubbed and the effort put into voice acting is outstanding.
Never played multiplayer in this series, never will so dont know anything about it and I dont really care becouse I am sure it will be even more RTS focused and that is nothing for me personally.
While the co-op mode is enjoyable at times, I don't understand the inclusion of a skirmish mode.
