I really wish UNIST had a wider playerbase of more varied players. It's the kind of fighting game that would appeal to lots of types of players, but due to the "French-bread syndrome", you've got a handful of REALLY dedicated players that will mulch any beginner-to-intermediate players without much chance for anyone to understand what they're really doing wrong. With more players, crossplay, and a better system for teaching players what is possible within the game's systems, it could be a fantastic game to introduce people into anime fighters. As it stands? You're either ToD-ing, or being the one ToD'd. It's just too small of a community to allow any new players to really get into the game, and that barrier to entry is often touted as a good thing. But because of the barrier, you'll find yourself sitting for hours, waiting for a match of SOME kind, only to end up fighting the game Mika one-trick for ten back to back games, and while that's fine for some, for the majority of players, that's just going to REALLY hurt the desire to play online. That creates a vicious cycle of brutality, of players buying the game, getting a few matches in and getting crushed, unable to find ANYONE else to play with that's closer to their personal skill level or experience with UNIST's systems, maybe doing an arcade run that is PITIFULLY easy by comparison, and thinking "Well there's nothing else for me to do" and getting a refund. Which is a shame, because UNIST 2 is a fantastic game, with amazing characters and tons of interesting mechanics. Between two equally skilled players in the intermediate range, it can be a REALLY fun back-and-fourth experience. But with systems that really do nothing but encourage "Touch of death" mentality, you either have to be a professional who frequents your local bathrooms and has been whacking it to Melty R/34 for a decade, or you just don't get to play.

better than strive 720p is odd at first but trust me it looks natural after a while amazing and unique system mechanics that make game play more interesting pretty much every major bug has been fixed since the launch of the game very cool game check it out edit: put a few more hours on it and its actually crazy that more people dont play this game its a masterpiece

Jan. 2025

The best Modern Anime Fighter in the market is right here, in front you. Why aren't you playing it? Pros [*] A healthy combination of balance and fun bullshit in every character's kit. [*] A cast full of personality and style. [*] Satisfying and fluid combo system. [*] Unique and interactive systems keep every part of the match (defense, offense, neutral) interesting. [*] Beautiful 2D style full of charm. [*] Raito's god-like soundtrack. Cons [*] Hard to get good at, get ready to practice a lot. [*] Missing chronicle mode from the first game. Singleplayer features are basic and could be considered lackluster. [*] Overpriced. [*] Graphically demanding for a retro-style game. [*] Small player-base: Play at peak hours or play as a discord fighter. [*] Small dev team means bad customer support: Because French-Bread isn't equipped to do it, Arcsys is responsible for handling customer support. Considering how poorly they handle that in their flagship game (Guilty Gear STRIVE), you can expect it to be near non-existent for this game. [*] RIP old UNI menu music. :( Personally not a con for me, but could be for you [*] Not as cinematic as other fighters. [*] No combo breaker system. [*] Technical inputs only, there is no simple input mode. [*] Long and safe pressure strings on block that require an active defense to be challenged. [*] Higher damage when compared to the first game, leading to more explosive matches. TL;DR: + Worth the full price for any fighting game aficionado . + Recommended to buy at a sale for anyone who dabbles with the genre . - NOT recommended as your first fighting game . Unless you've got the fighting spirit in you. Will you take on the challenge?

Good game and made even better, but came out at the bad time and in even worse condition.

July 2024

This is first fighting game I'm trying to commit myself too, and it's been great! I love the music and look of it and my favorite character has been Linne so far! I highly recommend this game, especially for new players like myself.
