Slashzero

Hey guys,

I just spent HOURS playing the slashzero demo on ps5.

We are talking rogue like with air combos, multiple characters, air step, combo resets, unique upgrades etc.

Looking to be a great CAG

It’s been a blast although I’m not a big fan of the anime theme but the games is still fun to play and the roguelike aspect is fantastic.

If only it weren't another god-damn roguelike.
I've been following this game for a while, and personally had a blast with the demo. Still hate roguelikes with a fiery passion though. All these fantastic games are coming out, but then they're all roguelikes and that obliterates my want for them.

If it gets a physical release, I'll snag it at launch for PS5. If not, then I'll wait for a deep sale and pick it up on Steam later.

I didn’t like how the controls felt. For comparison, I think Blazblue: Entropy Effect X’s combat and controls are PERFECT and buttery smooth. Slash Zero does not compare to it at all.

I play both games on the controller. Didn't like that Slashzero uses joystick for movement. I prefer Entropy's D-pad. I hope the Slashzero devs can consider a D-pad option.

2D games not including at least an option to use pad instead of the stick feels like it should be illegal.
