- Short Review
I've been playing every storm game since storm 1 on the PS3, and I feel like storm connections might be the worst entry in the naruto storm saga imo. I feel mocked and disrespected by CC2... Storm 4 is far superior to this half baked game. Please don't get scammed and buy this DLC on sales only.

- Longer Review

- Story mode is low effort and tons of content was cut.
- You can't invite friends in online mode and no crossplay in 2023
- Still 0 punishement for ragequitters in online mode
- 10 more characters for 59.99€
- Anko, Kurenai, Adult Konohamaru, 7 Swordsmen, Pakura and more still missing
- Old characters still not updated with new moveset since Storm 2

I also want to talk more in depth about the changes and new mechanics, Because I sincerely believe they are terrible and killed the competitive aspect of the game.

- Chakra is almost infinite now because the regen rate is absurd and you also get passive chakra regen, so good luck pressuring an opponent out of his chakra this ain't happening.
- Ninja tools are infinite now, they just have a cooldown and you can pick the characters with the most OP ninja tools and switch it for another character when the game start and profit of unlimited op ninja tools.
- They removed the tilt and chakra shurikens making most characters who where fun and special to play in storm 4 super boring to play in connections.
- They removed justu customization (War tobi can no longer use fireball jutsu like in storm 4)
- Infinite combo and cancels are easier than ever, 0 skill is involved and super frustrating
- Invincible frames on some ults/jutsus giving unfair advantages to some already op characters
- Ranged characters only are dead (Temari, Utakata, Deidara and the rest)
- Some awakenings are beyond broken
- The damage on some jutsus makes no sense and is not balanced

Conclusion : This game is dead on arrival.

I mean a lot of other fighting games had less characters or only a few more, so thats not really a real issue, and they have really high reviews, i just think people are overhating the 10 characters addition
