“Getting into a long-standing fighting game series is always a challenge for new players. There are so many characters and different versions to go over for many of them and going up against seasoned players whove been with the series for years is one of the biggest barriers. BlazBlue, however, has something a lot of other games dont have; a ton of story. The series is known for having a lot of story content, which can make that initial barrier even harder for new players because if they jump into a new game and play the story mode, they arent going to be able to follow it.” — PlayStation Enthusiast
