Akira? Broken? luls. Not gonna lie though, I do dislike playing against the VF characters. Probably because they just feel so out of place and I don't feel like learning their tech.
Whether that be the case or not, until DoA6 or something with a completely new story comes out (not counting DoA5U since they're more than likely keeping VF characters until new project if at all), you're only hindering yourself as far as a match up goes. You'd do better just to accept it for the time being and learn how to deal with them until they're taken out.
Meh, I've downgraded to casual online play so ya I just don't bother anymore lol. The game just isn't good enough in my eyes to spend any real time in it. But ya, Akira is not broken, so still luls to those players.
Quite understandable. Yeah, it's just funny hearing it all because I used him at a tourney. Poorly in a lot of cases, frankly. Regardless, funny to think about.
