We were promised gorgeous animations and graphics, but the sprites are so pixelated, you could use them to cut week-old bread.
Many characters' moves were stripped, making play feel not only unlike other KoFs but also rather bland. The critical counter isn't all that fun, feels very gimmicky. A lot of very popular characters are missing (K' & Mai) in order to put in others that are either unusable (Mature) or boring (Garcia). The game's also still very imbalanced.
Everyone has too much life. You time-up more than you KO, which is atrocious. Online play is choppy. My friends and I played for a while, and then went back to Blazblue, confident we wouldn't be picking up the disc again.
