It's a great fighting game with a fantastic roster, and the single player features like Classic mode and World of Light are all fantastic. However, as lockdowns for COVID started and I was forced to come to grips with how bad the online is, everytime I play this game I get frustrated with how awful the netcode is. It's simultaneously a great and awful game. I have no desire to play this unless rollback netcode is implemented or I can start playing it irl with other people again. I can't in good consciousness give this a good rating with how broken the online is. To make matters worse, most of the playerbase refuses to use ethernet cables, and it has all kinds of other technical issues like built-in input lag. even Smash 4 online was better than this.
