Having quite enjoyed the first two instalments of the series and the PS2 era of the genre in general, this game differs in many ways such as clan-based stories instead of character-based which makes sense considering the growing roster. What I don't like however is how easy it is to cheese through the game with hyper attacks which is essentially press Y to slaughter through thousands of enemies which makes for a faster and flashier gameplay at the cost of 0 challenge. Story is mediocre at best.
