Out of all the features removed, the wall combat and charged strikes served the least purpose, which is to say none at all. Jutsu clashes never occured (even on the lowest AI setting, the CPU isn't stupid enough to counter a jutsu with another jutsu when it can just ninja dash to avoid).
Intros and the extended ultimates were removed to cut back on online lag. The minigames were removed from ultimates because they were made much shorter (thank God, it's hard enough to land an ultimate, stupid to throw in a minigame that you must win). Selectable awakenings were removed for balance issues.
And before some smartass comes in with "Yarg! Instant Awakenings! Blargmagarg!" Instant Awakenings do less damage, move much slower, and are temporary. Selectable Awakenings were permanent and overpowered.
The new substitution system is far more useful than the old. Turbo controllers be damned. The ring-out system, well, I suppose that's to cut down on ranged fighters? Gives them less room to dodge in? I don't know. --- check out my collection! "Ham! I love ham!" |
