I'll start off by stating some good parts about this game:
The presentation on this game in terms of art and music is amazing.
The cast of character is pretty cool and on a surface level are pretty good concepts for plat fighter characters.
The netcode isn't bad for me personally, its been bad for others though, but its being improved and my experiences have generally been good with it, its rollback thats implemented pretty alright so.

Binding controls in this game is incredibly weird and janky since you need to manually set a configuration for controls EVERY time you load into a game rather than just being able to pick a default if you don't modify the default control scheme since it doesn't save the last control scheme you used.

Training mode is extremely barebones and this game completely lacks any combo trials whatsoever despite being a game whose main marketing appeal is combos. Being unable to even select stages in training mode is incredibly questionable, as the training mode stage is nothing alike the stages used in the actual game, being both shorter compared to Arena and lacking in any platforms at all like the other 2 maps.

The cancel system in this game also just doesnt feel very good as a whole and feels more like a bandaid for lack of proper links like other fighting games and ends up making even the most basic of links end up being incredibly execution heavy since every combo revolves around dash cancelling moves into other moves with perfect spacing rather than doing intuitive links and cancels.

The game is also fast paced to the point where you pretty much have zero breathing room at any point to do anything and just get ran down instead of there being any back and forth or meaningful interactions aside from the Knockt matchup being able to somewhat force zoning with his arrows + bombs.

Defensive options in this game are very limited aside from spacing normals. Even more polarizing, parrying in this game feels incredibly ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ as a whole since it has an extremely fast startup, leading to situations where you can get reaction parried for trying to land a button on someone and then dying instantly as a result.

This game as a whole has very poorly defined advantage/disadvantage states as well. Combos are deadly to the point where getting hit once takes an entire stock if executed properly, but if you drop a combo at all, the opponent is able to recover incredibly easily from offstage thanks to how generous the recovery in this game is.

Also you can dash cancel and combo off combo escape burst in this game and that alone is the singlehandedly dumbest thing I've ever seen in any fighting game.

E.Y.E. 2 real my legs are broken
