This game oddly came out of nowhere and was forgotten rather quickly, but I think it was a slight improvement over Accent Core. I dig the new force breaks, new playable boss characters, and EX moves that add a lot more to established characters. I could live without some of the balance changes but the game's balance is still solid, and in general, I'd say the game is a mechanical improvement. It's a shame that the online for this title is as shoddy as it is.
