this game has to be the biggest dissappointment in a fighting game franchise since noob sabot was discovered in mortal kombat. the game has amazing visuals true and the voices are nice and some of the combos arent half bad but the story is essentially the same cutscenes done over and over. the apprentice is overpowered so bad his only equal would be if chuuck norris was plced in the game and given godlike powers as he is rumored to have. essentially u can kill anyone anytime by throwing and blocking repetitively thus taking away from the games ability to test a fighting game players abilities and degrading him to spamming like hes playing sum god forsaken mmo. the game character customization heas both improved and fallen short from soul calibur 3. you do have customizable stats and u do get access to a finer color scheme but armor is very limited in comparison to the last one and u cant access the amazing side abilites of the soul calibur 3 (barbarian, dancer, jester, pirate, gladiator, knight, grieve edge, etc.). which brings me to my next point though the game may look pretier if u compare the two closely they have essentially made a handful of new moves taken away a handful of old ones and copy n pasted the rest. may question is for all the hype this game has wheres the creativity its like sumone added some glitter and a 2 star wars camios to soul calibur 3 wrapped it in a shiny new box and called it a game. i call this a dissappointing faliure of a game. way to go campcom.
