The story mode has received negative feedback, with players expressing frustration over its abruptness and lack of depth, as well as issues with the tutorial that detract from the overall experience. Many users found the narrative unengaging, leading them to abandon the mode early on.
“After a few minutes, I quit playing story mode. I noticed that during the tutorial, instead of learning 5 techniques, you only learn 3 techniques at the basic tutorial. Then it suddenly stops, and I get sent back to the main menu with the settings on full volume again, which is quite jarring.”
