Street Fighter 6

Genuine contender for 2023 game of the year. One of the best fighting games of all times, whether as a singleplayer experience or an exclusively-online one.

Street Fighter VI is like... fine but... I dunno man I think the game is too centralized on how drive rush works? Drive rush is practically the only thing anyone does in a match and contributes to so much lame shit in both the combo game and neutral. Not to mention a lot of other annoying things like how overly strong throws are or the way the game will just eat your inputs. I think there's some merit in a fighting game based around meter, but drive serves to be more lame than interesting.
