True, which is a shame, they have an already amazing fighting game in their hands, they shouldn't need that. (or the xtreme series).

No matter how kool the characters are, DOA has a bad reputation in the fighting game community, Most of them disregard DoA for the overly sexy themed outfits and poses they make.

@VAND1TA I would say DOA's bad reputation in the FGC comes from most people hating the mechanics, general ignorance around how the game works, and the community not quite doing enough to elevate the game competitively.
