On the subject of execution barriers, I've heard some people talking about how it's difficult for them to do some of the strings like Erron Black's 21112 string on regular controllers where they need to work on mashing buttons together and stuff and it comes out inconsistently, but it's quite easy for them on more expensive specialized controllers. If this is the case, it sounds to be like a fairly shitty design since it seems to create kind of a pay to win system where those who can afford better equipment have easier access to the more advanced moves and mechanics in the game.
Do my concerns there make sense to anyone else or am I looking at it wrong and/or making a big deal out of nothing?
