The open world is full of unique characters and it's beautiful to see all the different faces, and their outfit variations really do a number on the uniqueness of this title.
Characters
Players who bring up Characters mostly praise it.
42 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
But for me, the lack of any meaningful changes to the game's core system mechanics has effectively diminished my interest in continuing to play the game consistently (ranked grind etc.) despite Season 3's interesting roster choices with unique gameplay, such as Sagat and C.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.

It runs exceptionally well on my PC with very high graphics, and also runs well on my Steam Deck; I can run 60fps on 1080 with medium-high graphics when playing ranked or v-rivals matches, although it only runs 30-40 fps inside world tour and battle hub.
Servers and matchmaking
Players who bring up Servers and matchmaking mostly praise it.
18 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The game's netcode is definitely best in class, bordering on wizardry, and I have usually never been more annoyed by lag than by my opponent's shenanigans.
Multiplayer
Players who bring up Multiplayer mostly praise it.
17 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
There is a good amount of singleplayer content, and the multiplayer content has some amount of variety as well.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
15 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The reason for this is Drive Parry, your best defensive tool for defending both high and low at the same time, with Perfect Parries giving a full screen freeze in order to gift an advantage to the player defending with it successfully.
