Players praise the crowd-clearing combat, large roster with varied move sets, soundtrack, and range of modes. The dominant complaint is the PC port: players report awkward controller setup, missing controller prompts, analog dead zones, and older visuals. Many also criticize the Complete Edition label because DLC is sold separately.
