Hey there!
This is my first DOA game, im playing since sunday. I played a few fighting games before like Mortal Kombat, Killer Instinct, Tekken, but honestly, Dead or Alive is DAMN hard. The defense options are so complex and CONFUSING i absolutely cant find my place in it. Purchased DOA because reviews (blah, i never should listen to reviews) said its an easy fighting game. But holy sh', there are high, med, low attacks with confusing animations ( some high attacks looks like mids, low attacks looks like mids etc etc.), and the whole Hold system is really really hard to do. High, Med, Low holds and a med-kick hold for whatever reason. I just did a training mission where i had to hold 3 attacks, but the frames and animations is so fast, basically i guessed for 30 minutes because its impossible to just hold these fast attacks (some of them are less than one second). How a human brain can react to that? And none of the attacks were slow ones, it was a training mission. After a few hours of single player and training, i tried online mode and it was a disaster.. people are playing like gods. There are no matchmaking in DOA6? I cant play against players on my own level? Purchased for relaxing, but damn.. Playing against the AI is not really fun after a while because the AI sometimes doesnt really do anything.
EDIT: The game is really good by the way. Im just scared by this high learning curve. I know every fighting game needs lots of training but i feel i dont even have a chance here, never felt this before.
