My game playing has assimilated into soren/playing an hourish of Battletech a week. One of the bigger mods, and the only one that is consistently updated, added a ton of stuff recently, including subfactions, completely original group of factions (still 50-50 on this), and enough random content to keep it somewhat fresh. Maybe once SoaSE2 gets out of early access (or a year later when its on Steam), I might play that, but aside from Starfield, not really feeling any games recently. Started the Gears fo War tactics game and that seems fine, though.

I guess it really depends on what type of FG you're into; I know that FG players can get pretty picky with their games/mechanics. Obviously, the main appeal of GG is that pretty much every character has something that's "broken," and that continues in strive. I think OG players seethed so much because it doesn't play much like an air dasher anymore, it's way more ground-based (basically, long air combos are almost not a thing). There's still plenty of air movement, but you're not gonna be spending much time doing air combos. The complexity is also toned down (another seethe point), but there is still plenty of high-level tech to learn, especially with advanced applications of Roman Cancels. Personally, I think it's great that complexity such as combo routes being opponent-specific like in Xrd was taken out (frick learning a million combo routes for Johnny), shit was just complex for complexity's sake.
So yeah, I'm a fan and IMO it's a great FG, although right now is not a great time to pick the game up because there's some lobby/hacker problems online (most likely due to the new xbox crossplay). I would wait for a sale (or get a cheap copy from a steam key shop if you are on PC). Probably not worth full price + cost of DLC, especially with SF6 around the corner. But yeah, I can totally recommend it. I got some special edition for PC from a key shop that had the base game + both DLC passes for 40 bucks, normal price for all that would have easily been double. If you just want the base game to try out, you can get it used for like 20 bucks.
