This might be the worst season pass I've ever seen for any game, not just fighting games.

Genuinely terrible gameplay loop consisting of:

-Constant 50/50 situations that greatly favor the offensive player.
-Chip damage in a series that should NEVER punish you for good defense.
-Forced stance mixups from characters that traditionally didn't use stances (Heihachi).
-Armored mid heat engagers. If you play Tekken, I don't need to explain how stupid this is.
-Stupid resource mechanics that have no place in a 3D fighter.
-Extremely questionable balance decisions (Azucena destroyed, Dragunov still remaining mostly untouched, the state of Devil Jin, etc)
-Awful DLC picks (Capos are unpopular, Heihachi should have stayed dead, and John Fantasy that seems so out of place he looks like cancelled Soul Calibur DLC)

I just don't understand the aim of the development team anymore. The current state of this game is a walking advertisement for Virtua Fighter. I've entered this game at several major tournaments and even ran tournaments for my local scene, and I think I'm just done supporting it.
