I think it's pretty fun, but is going to be frustrating to play online because of the skill required, imo.

I know I keep harping on this, but it sort of ticks me off

I think it's deceptive. It's one thing to have skill in button presses and timing, it's another thing to have skill in actual tennis gameplay. It has the former but no the latter.

Rather than working your opponent into a disadvantageous position on the court using tennis skill, all that matters is if you block correctly, manage meter, and trick shot correctly. Not the kind of game I wanted honestly.

Not every game is for everyone, and maybe it's a good thing because Octopath is coming out, but I'm actually more disappointed after sinking some time into it. And I bought digital, blah.
