Super hype for the new version, it's all looking good. When you say there's going to be a different ending, could that possibly be a route where BK3/SoR3 Shiva is the last boss?

Got another set of videos. As it turns out, P-1 got a massive buff with the 2.3 juggle system and Roo's okay just as long as you a) never set foot into SoR3 route other than Stage 8 and b) come to the realization that sometimes you gotta throw your health out for specials before the enemy beats...

I want to like Kusanagi because he technically can zone like a boss with his shuriken, he technically has an evasion game due to Ninpo Kage Bunshin, and he technically has a grapple game with his throw, which is something a lot of characters can't say. The issue is that Mania enemies know to...

As grotesque as the SoR Zombies guy's art gets, he does sometimes do spritework that's not grotesque. I've never managed a full playthrough of SoRZ but someone I know pointed out this neat Crime Fighters 1 reference, for instance. I'm not sure how far out the new version of SoR2X is (well I...

So I took Jack through Mania. He's the worst character in the game for actually being able to do it, but he CAN do it lmao. For some reason he can get juggled for longer than any other character in the game which is really funny. Kinda makes playing him not for the faint of heart, though...

No-Death Run Attempt using Robot X, with a thrilling conclusion! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PM2YzOAk-ug I'm mostly a casual player but it was great fun pulling this off. Personally I'm willing to write this off as a genuine No-Death Run. Also did a run with SoR2 Electra, but it's such a...

suhmai/antyguf's work is edgy in a series that's more gritty, than anything. I understand the appeal of their work but I also understand that it can be off-putting. So, back to OG 2X. I just now noticed it but Robot Mr. X uses the SoR2 ("uuuaaaaargh") boss defeat scream rather than the SoR3...

Really enjoying the new patch, though I haven't been able to update to 2.3.1. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=25MpSoKlpVI Some comments! - I can beat SoR2 route with BK3 Electra, holy lord. 64 DAMAGE AND 256 DAMAGE COMBOS BAYBEEEEEEE - I can't say enough how great the juggle changes are. For...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=41sJ-k0AwJs I've been having a blast with the new version. Some things that stand out to me: 1) Oh my god BK3 Electra does 64 damage on forward special now. She packs such a punch when you use her, and fighting groups of them in SoR3 route incorrectly just...

Aw, crap. Maybe I should've held off on recording these playthroughs, then. Still, this is good news and I think we're all looking forward to 2.3!

Got another few videos recorded. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1M-yuITIFAs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uRXoFE1YfcI Honestly, I'm really enjoying the way Mona/Lisa play, and my initial poor evaluation of them is way off the mark. If they didn't have such a bad matchup against a squad of...

Oh god. While I am thankful the Electras might get buffs, I hope SoR3 Jet isn't getting a damage boost from anything I said. That fight is already a nightmare as is haha Also, I want to say I was completely wrong about Mona/Lisa. I'm not going to say blockers aren't an issue but they do have...

Here's a Mania 1cc using Electra (SoR2). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PRcfcY8rlqA This is almost a full hour longer than either of the other Mania playthrough videos I've posted. Big reason for this is despite having an amazing tool in her jump kick, her damage is terrible. Like, if you...

One thing I'll say is that Hard/Normal/Easy are such different beasts from Mania that characters that I'd say are irredeemably bad (Roo, Monalisa) climb much higher the moment the enemy isn't efficiently countering every attack with machine-timed evasion, blocking, or attacks/comboing. Suddenly...

Tier List based on Ver 2.2 Mania Difficulty Solo, at 9 Lives per continue, with nothing else adjusted and no CPU partners (in fact, in Mania CPU partners can hurt more than help a lot of the time). Keep in mind that I'm honestly not the best player so take all of this with a grain of salt. S...
