I enjoy it. I have been spending all my time re-learning Noel, since she's changed entirely.

The zoning characters don't feel nearly as broken in this game. They have a harder time keeping you out.

Would you like to get together and play it sometime?

I would love to, but I'm in California right now, looking for a jerb :X I'll have to meetcha online until I come back for a spell.

Oh and at one point, people were saying Noel was like no good anymore. Is that still the consensus?

She's not great. She would be a really good character if a couple of her normals were changed a little bit, but as it is it's really hard to pressure with her. You basically have to trick the opponent into thinking you're dangerous before you can really apply pressure. Until then you have to really fish for hits, and make sure to capitalize on any mistake your opponent makes.

Having not really played the original, I'm still pretty confused.
Having Unlimited Ragna as the boss of arcade mode isn't very fair.

I haven't played arcade mode at all. I've just been focusing on Story Mode and online play.

The problem is that Unlimited Rawrgna is programmed to be computer-good, which is to say, "I do Volcanic Viper within a frame of you being open". The only way I was able to beat him with Hazamachan was Oruborosing myself over there to smack him, which he didn't know how to deal with for some reason.

Haven't played it too much; it seems like a pretty cool guy. It feels like online play quality is worse, but that might just be the fact that I've been playing Hazama only. And Hazaman has rough timing on some of his combos.

I know the combo. I have seen it in visions of the past. Lots of spinning knives and kd spinkick at the end. I love that combo.

How's Hazama overall? Last I heard his damage was not through the roof, but the CH potential from his Johnny's-old-6K super was balling.

Online has been a mixed bag for me. Sometimes I have a basically perfect connection, but every time I haven't it's been too bad to combo.
