What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
Both appear generic at first, but I assure you, don't judge a book by it's cover, because like Deadliest Warrior, despite looking generic at first and having a focus on public domain in regard to characters, it makes suprisingly good use and execution in terms of fighting styles/playstyles and variety when it comes to the characters.
SvsW visually has more "realistic" graphics, unlike games like Tekken or SFV, and I personally like this.
The characters are recognizable, the music and sound effects fantastic and completely feels like a love-letter to classic cinema.
Combat-I like the idea of weapons being mapped to the X button, whilst b and a are for your different attack types (punches and kicks).
Roster-The roster is very varied, fun, and diverse, although the characters may not look that great in design terms as mentined beforehand, each one plays very differently and in fun ways, not to mention more characters are getting added for free via updates, which is generous and a nice touch.
This game is extremely customizable both graphically, in terms of difficulty level, and in terms of the game play.
