This is my first Street Fighter.

I've played handfuls or random fighting games, but never the big one, until 6. It's absolutely gorgeous visually, runs like a dream (some updates have hit performance but hotfixes fix that pretty fast, nbd) and feels intuitive enough to pick up and learn without being overwhelmed. Frame data being completely accessible in training is amazing, I don't know how to do math so it doesn't help me but it helps my friends that do understand simple addition and they can explain it to me, very cool.

Since this is my first Street Fighter, I don't really understand the hate for Drive Impact/Drive Rush. I love both of them, even if I can only react to DI 1/20 times, that's a me problem and nothing to do with game design. My only complaint when it comes to Drive Impact is how far you stumble when you block it, but that's just another mix you have to be ready for. I'm getting better at it, and if I can, anyone can.

With the launch of MK1 being absolutely heart-shattering, SF6 is THE must have fighting game of 2023.
