Ok um jogo de luta curto, 7 horas e quase fiz tudo que tinha nele, mesmo assim é bom, personagens legais e historias interressantes, tem um bom sex appel nele mas nada muito exagerado, compensa comprar as dlcs para as outras personagens, é dificil jogar no teclado ja que seus combos querem mover o joystick em maneiras q é dificil nos direcionais, mas isso faz parte.

Skullgirls is a amazing game that requires skill and time to become good at it ( I suck ), I like the art direction of the game, the animations are beautiful and the characters are cool, but there is somethings that I don’t like for example, why is there a CRINGY-ASS FURRY in the training room instead of MS.VICTORIA! it feels so damn out of place. why in the Mary virgin mother of Jesus is there censorship in this game! the people who wanted it censored are probably people who don’t even play Skullgirls or doesn’t even play video games at all and just complain on the internet, the have a name and they are called modern audiences. Gamergate is the one to blame. I’m planning big crimes after this, anyways double my beloved

People say that fighting games have become dull ,but there is once and a while when a rare gem arises. Skull Girls the 2nd encore provides a colorful cast of characters that imitates the style of blaze blue with each fighter having a unique move set. The story is that a relic can give you one wish if you defeat the skull girl every 7 year. Simple take as a fighting game can get. One thing I have to admire is the art and style of this game. It's 2d hand drawn style of different generation of tv and shows clash great with on another. The music is fantastic with it's jazz theme battles. The world of skull girls is well designed and creative that my only grip with the game is that there is not enough story to explain it's expensive and deep world. This game will crack your bones with how fun it is. 9/10

Skull girls?? more like Thicc girls ;P, the art in this game is gorgeous, so stylish and daaam those proportions(would love to see a game with similar characters but raw without the "moster" theme), the voice acting its very good, the music is also so good, its a great fighting game with lot of personality, cool move sets, very good controls, and lot of unlockables, can't believe its like 15yo. It has some dlc but with a single season pass buy youll get the full game, which is appreciate in fighting games now days with dlc cuadrupling the base game price.

Not for me (because fighting games in general aren't), but something I could see myself recommending to any fighting game fan. Lengthy tutorial and all. This game can feel very harsh, though.
Note that online may or may not be dead or have the huge skill gap problem at this point, I haven't played online in ages. Also attracts the kind of fanbase you would expect given the character design and the game has been review bombed, so you have been warned.
And, tbh, given the price tag on this one, I would probably even recommend it if you only want to play singleplayer, despite the story routes being fairly short and there only really being an arcade mode past that.

I'm awful at fighting games. Never understood why people liked the. I thought they were clunky, unbalanced, required committing long button inputs to & combo set-ups to memory. Then I downloaded Skullgirls back on the PS3. I was still awful (I'm still very awful) but it clicked. Fighting games are good. Games are good. Playing fighting games with other people and learning how to improve after every match is good. Now I'm looking at games like Vampire Savior, and Guilty Gear knowing I'll still be awful and I'll still have fun.
Fighting games are so cool.

Great fighter with incredible art, some of my favorite character designs. Unfortunately the new management hit it was a giant censorship bomb for no reason and they are censoring all negative reviews as well so I implore you to not support it until/if the changes are reverted.

Used to be a great passion project by dedicated developers who slowly betrayed each other until everyone was ousted and the IP was bought out and sterilized by some outside company looking to only turn a profit.
