I wish Connections was still popping like that because there's so many characters I'd still like added (Code, 7 Swordsman of the Mist, Anko, Kinkaku & Ginkaku, etc.) ...but everything has an expiration date.. Storm isn't what it used to be.

[@flappyflap2693]

the circle mash killed it for me gonna be real

[@Manganization]

Characters? At this point I wished they reworked the game! There are a few released characters that felt like remixes of old characters and is not worth the price of DLC, namely Borushiki and Kawaki Otsutsuki. The game is mechanically barren, moreso than any other game of the series, which is a shame.

5:51 😂don’t second guess yourself bro you were right it would be considered an anti-air

[@shakuryon]

Still blows my mind, how easy this game could've been good. Literally all they had to do was make Connections play like UNS4 with better netplay, with the new characters, and we would've all been good. Turning tilts into 2nd jutsus was so lazy, and made the game highly unbalanced and a chore to play.

[@cubearts1]

that is basically what connections is, connections online is vastly better than 4 in terms of its netcode, the issue with connections is the lack of content and the fact that no matter how good your netplay is, you need to actually have to have functional lobby system for it to work, which storm C didnt have, you couldnt even play with your friends.

[@hotfunyunsop6196]

​@@cubearts1LMAO!!! I was about the same thing. Like dude he literally described connections. It's just 4 with a few news chars and better net play.

[@DeBolttheBear]

@@hotfunyunsop6196 And a worse Story Mode. It's wild how they marketed it as a package of all 4 games and gut the story to slide shows and even taking out some of the fights.

@@DeBolttheBearthey didn’t market it as a package tho, that’s what the legacy collection is for. This was marketed as a retelling of Naruto and Sasuke’s stories through the years

[@DeBolttheBear]

@@Carlisle-mn3fv No, it was absolutely marketed as a recut version of all 4 storm games. The initial trailer even says the story is a recut. Subbing out the cutscenes of the originals isn't a recut, it's gutting content to inject slideshow stills. It's lazy and they intentionally marketed it in a way that misled expectations. Why didn't they show ANY of the slide shows in the trailer? Because if they advertised it that way, it wouldn't appeal to anyone wanting the story.

[@Midnight_Delight]

Well, canonically hashirama was kinda slow he moved around using his woodstyle, and not to say he's turtle speed. He's still lightspeed, just one of the slowest lightspeed chatacters in Naruto. He's about Sakura speed. Without the assist of woodstyle, but the way he would use sage mode is by sitting on top of his woodstyle jutsus and moving around that way.
