this was a complaint of mine back when DOA5 was release, the hit effects in this game are alot more subdued compared to the previous one, doesn't bother me anymore though
My issue with em is they just dont sound very painful, and almost soft. same issue i have with smash 4 compared to earlier games. Not a fan of the sound effects but like everything else. Im still gonna get it someday but meh, wish i actually swap out the sound effects for doa. Of all the things people are complaining about im likely the only one griping over sound effects
