Couple things... I couldn't really notice the graphical difference of the gameplay visuals but hey, it's still a WIP and it's just a tiny pet peeve.

As for the battle system, I'm liking every thing I see but it terrifies me to hear they're doing the old thing where you can awaken, and use ultimates AND use supports... it makes the game potentially a win button ESPECIALLY for people like Danzo and Madara.

Being someone who's bought and played every game and did many online fights, seeing videos like these only makes me think of the meta game and how people will always try to crap their way out into a win.

This is all just my opinion, however. And I know this game isn't meant to be viewed as an EVO contending fighting game... just saying that these games weren't always totally fair, and there are always the 'win button characters' which frustrate the hell outta me. I'm just hoping for improved balance is all.

Side notes: I always wanted to play as Chojuro but with the new party switching system and activating awakenings, awakening ults and so on, there's no way they'd keep the support only characters and make them actual characters. I guess it's just wishful thinking on my part.

OMG I really hope they fix the ranking system. I was lucky enough to even make it to Chunin in Rev.

I do like how they're incorporating sideview camera angles for close combat ala Pokken, even though directional inputs aren't gonna be a huge thing for that probably it's still cool.

I always liked how he's passionate about the games they make. He's not the best speaker, but he does like what they make. NUNS and JoJo ASB are not good games when viewed as fighters, but they're great as fanservice games.

Darn, I knew it was not going to be for any system I actually have. Oh well.

Considering that Chojuro spoiler[becomes the next Mizukage], I think he has a pretty good shot at becoming playable. They seem to want to put everyone who's had any significance whatsoever into this game, after all.

Yeah I was hoping that his "new status" would allow him to be more likely playable.
