By all means this has the potential for a very good game. Anyone can tell you it is damn outright addictive to play. Mechanically this game is simply put fun 90% of the time. The other 10% falls into the realm of inconsistency which has been a problem since day one.
Pros:
-Addicting gameplay
-Fast or Slow paced combat depending on the situation
-Always good looking. This game in terms of looks is mint.
-Customization, let me just say that the fashion is something worth grinding for. You can suck at this game and still play for the fashion. And it continues to get updated.
-EZ entry into matchmaking when your MMR is low. It'd take either a flawless record or many many hours to see higher MMR.
-High skill ceiling
-Insensitive for coordination with teammates.
-In game currency can get you just about anything in game.
-Lots of external information like on Reddit or Youtube or even discords to help you get acclimated to this game.
Cons:
-Inconsistency due to connections and reused code. All it takes to ruin this game is someone with McDonald's wifi.
-A lackluster story with an antagonist that had potential but was short lived.
-MMR separation. Separating the players due to skill levels is a good idea for a game like this. It's almost never fun to get your ass kicked because you see it unfold in front of you as someone distillates you. This makes the game really hard to play with friends that are significantly better or worse than you because it can completely mess with who you should be getting match up with. Take a low level friend in and you might have to watch as they lose all sanity. Or the other way around where you get put into a lobby of people on their first day. MMR might just be the most flawed part of the game.
-Ranked, there is almost no reason to play ranked due to the rewards being very rare and its a duel gamemode. Duels are extremely matchup dependent due to imbalance to characters in 1v1.
-Balancing updates are only once every few months so adapt to the state of the game and learn to be content with it.
-As frustrating as it sounds you'll have to practice a lot to get better at this game. Fast reactions will determine the ease of the game for sure but still learning the matchups and characters so that you can make reads is essential to progressing as a player. If someone spams you, adjust. Trust me there is a way to beat just about everything. Learn it.
-Your fun in this game will be EXTREMELY dependent at how good you are at it.
Now I Know the cons are high but overall this game has come a LONG way and is very unique. It's worth a shot at playing but just know you will eventually get tilted and know that its usually the players fault in performance. The game is 100% worth the buy when it's like 15 or even 20 bucks. You can't expect too much from a game that was basically condemned at launch. But it's survived this long for a reason. You like a unique fighting game that mechanically feels like you can always progress. This is it.
