My Opinion Injustice 2 is a dissapointment

EntropicByDesign

It's all so very confusing.
Yeah, you hit a nerve.. when something as overtly stupid as your post is made, it does actually annoy me.

They are your opinions, they're just terrible and misinformed opinions grounded in your complete and utter failure to understand anything about fighting games or design in general.

You do know that in Tekken there are bad MUs too right? And in Tekken there are characters designed to excel in certain ways and not be perfect at everything.. right? Yeah, Tekken characters have such a tremendous array of moves to some degree every character on Tekken can be adapted to your personal playstyle, sure. If you want to play Asuka as rushdown you can . Etc.. but it doesn't mean you're.using the character optimally.. and you seem to be missing the fact that Tekken isnt a game so much about characters as about the engine and the game...it's why.so many of the pros can switch to and play 85% of the roster at a professional level and bounce between characters aa often as they do.. it's because Tekken has a very homogeneous character design. I don't say that as an insult to Tekken, it's a fantastic game.. it's just a different game.. and how you could go in to Inj2 expecting every character to just have every single option..

It's like me posting a bad review of a pizza place because they didn't serve steak like that steakhouse down the street.. it just doesn't make sense.

And you do know, since you genuinely seem not to.. that you can wear your gear in ranked right? And that gear is the same as Tekken's gear, in that it just changes your looks. I mean, yeah, items on Tekken can be used in ranked I'm pretty sure but that's just a dumb gimmicky thing no one does outside of once to say hurr hurr I shot him with my water pistol! Herpaderp. Otherwise gear in Tekken serves and identical purpose to gear in Injustice..

I'll say again, I agree on gear diversity, and would love to see a greater range of gear appearance in Inj2.. but even in Tekken there isn't much individual gear, as it's mostly a universal pool everyone pulls from.

It's just, like has been stated prior, you could have just made a status update, or, better yet, fucked off into the air quietly.. making a post shitting on a game for bizarre, unrealistic reasons deserves to be called out and put on blast though.

If you made a post that said "I don't like Injustice because of the interactables, or the ease and emphasis of extremely powerful zoning, or because of such and such a mechanic or whatever" then I wouldn't have even posted, because you're entitled to your opinion.. but when you make a post saying "I don't like Inj 2 because green tastes like hamburgers made from bad high school poetry oh and also trees talk backwards" I feel like I, and others, should attempt to explain to anyone reading your gibberish who might not be familiar with the game, how wrong you are and how .. weird your post is.

It sounds like the OP's problem is more with the Fighting Game genre than Injustice 2 inparticular. I'd say Injustice 2 is a pretty great fighting game. Solid animations, fun/interesting character design, plenty of content for both casual and competative scene, great netcode. Not everyone is going to like the Injustice 2 style, but that's ok. There are plenty of great fighting games out there right now.
 
Every character should have a zoning, combo, defense and mix up potential its called being fair.
Fair? No, that's called symmetrical design. Fighting games, by their very nature, are supposed to be a balancing act of asymmetrical character designs. I'd rather in-balance in a fighting game, than a fighting game with the same character over and over 20 different times.

But, if done well, it can be balanced and asymmetrical.

I expected a service from injustice and did not receive it. I said the game is also incomplete they making promises after dissapointments such as adding more gear parts. I do like the characters i banged out injustice one i even got platinum on it, but injustice 2 im just saying the game got too repetative too boring too quick they even took out star labs added some looooooonnnnnngggggg multiverse mode. I did not get anything for aquaman and i used from day one and gear are too similar there is not much difference and i do want the game to improve i just can't accept it at the moment they make changes based on people bitching who is op e.g aquaman if you dont want people the bitch make the game fair it does not have to be symmetrical. l allow the characters to have there own little twist imagine bane vs batman and batman throws baterang, bane should be able to throw a rock back lol atleast allow them to fight any one in the roster comfortably im typing on phone thats why its in text format long. And i recently got back on tekken and of course characters are better than others but you actually have fun on tekken i stopped having fun on injustice it stopped feeling like a game amd more like a task. When the game has fully updated definitive style with NEO SPAWN and SUBZERO FIXED i will jump on lol

This is the opinion of someone who clearly believes out gearing your opponent is fair, but Deadshot zoning Grodd is not. Grodd should be able to throw bananas back at the same speed and do the same damage and Deadshot should be able to grab Grodd from his feet and slam him to the ground like hulk to loki.

"If you don't want people to bitch make the game fair"

That's the entire point of balance patches and keeping an eye on the community and weighing them vs. legitimate concerns.

Yo if you could customize a character the way you want with the moves you want and use him where you want and when is what i thought but it was lies

NRS already made that game 10 years ago. Its called Mortal Kombat Armageddon.

Otherwise there's a ton of RPGs that cover that facet. Idk what other fighting game does.

Injustice 2 is a dissapointment, the game is based around customization but the only place you can use the customized character is in player matches or offline but not in ranked.

A game that is mainly based around customization gear which really is a bunch of duplicates with different names and shaders that are specific to a character there is not much freedom in regards of customizing.

They patch characters based on how they want them for example they patched Aquamans meter burn tentacle strike because apparently he was designed to be a defensive type but on injustice 1 he had great zoning, defense, combos and mix ups was he also designed wrong on that one too?

It's the same game don't deny it they have copied and paste the characters moves and enhanced a few things.

The grinding is long I banged out the game and was unimpressed with the results. It is a comic based game everyone should be fair played not based on match ups.

Every character should have a zoning, combo, defense and mix up potential its called being fair. I really liked the story but after Sub-Zero DLC came out I used him and realised he has more dissadvantages then advantages i thought i will come back to it after, to me this game is incomplete.

I am currently playing Tekken and noticed that they truly care about the gamers and injustice is built more towards a competitive scene. People are too sensitive towards opinions. I do not care i just did not get what i expected as a gamer. I will jump back on when the game has completed (hopefully).

P.S I do hope NEO becomes a DLC for injustice 2.
Well if it is based on comics, people like Batman would not have longer range or be faster than WW. WW would be un-zonable. I think it is loosely inspired by comic

It wasn't a lie you can use them everywhere in the game except ranked and tournament mode: Multiverse, Single fight, Player matches, King of the Hill, practice, guild multiverse, AI simulator etc.

Ranked is actually for measuring skill with no modifications. Don't bring op gear to this place.
