Yatagarasu Attack on Cataclysm

Yatagarasu Attack on Cataclysm manages to bring back some of the best parts of 90s fighting games, but also feels dated in some areas. The actual fighting is top-notch, but unless you are a hardcore fighting game fan, you'll be turned off by the sub-par presentation. Fighting fans will find a lot to like with the actual combat, however, and Yatagarasu Attack on Cataclysm is some of the most fun you can have with a 2D fighter.

I enjoy the minimalist visuals and emphasis on mind games and feeling out your opponent, rather than pulling off technical combos. In a lot of ways, it's refreshing how stripped down Yatagarasu is, but it would have been nice to see more attention around the periphery. Yatagarasu Attack on Cataclysm is wonderful, except when it isn't. From first blood to knockout this is an exceptional fighting game. I just wish the rest of it was held to that same standard.

Yatagarasu tiene mucho margen de mejora en todo lo demás. Escaso en modos de juego offline, un online que no funciona con la pulidez que debería un juego como este a día de hoy y pequeños errores en menús, idiomas y configuración que hacen que todo lo que rodea a los combates no esté a la altura. Las bases de su combate son sencillas, eficaces y funcionan, pero la experiencia general con el título no está a la altura de dichas mecánicas.
