On an unrelated note, dbfz is actually quite a good game and one I prefer over other fighting games. (As a casual player).

I also prefer the fighting games which are more forgiving with combos.

The only thing is: DBFZ and other Arc System Work games look like they're hard to play, with 20+ hit combos going off all the time. But people need to realize that a lot of it is auto-combo or auto-gatlings with very forgiving timing. And Arc-System-Work's hit-stop graciously extends the period for which you can extend a combo.

It really is a fighting game on training wheels. But that's what makes it more fun IMO, because you spend less time practicing mechanics or timing... and spend more time trying to read the opponent and interact with them.
