Quote from Splatulated;853019:
how different is combat in DFO vs Mabinogi ? can you name a single game that its similar to ?
They're very different! Dungeon Fighter is an action game that involves lots of juggling and combos.
Dungeon Fighter Online is one big huge tribute to the video games of the past generation. Its a big mixture between the "beat em up" genre and fighting games, specifically from arcade machines. They even work the lives system with "tokens".
Very notable examples that most people would know:
River City Ransom
Double Dragon
Golden Axe
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Turtles in Time
The Simpsons Arcade Game
Ninja Baseball Batman
Castle Crashers
Scott Pilgrim Vs The World
The game is extremely popular for its competitive pvp aspects. It plays much like a regular fighting game, and even comes with dozens of references from big name fighting games like Street Fighter. Theres like 50 classes which more or less is equivalent to having 50 characters on a fighting game roster to chose from. This wasn't the case before since you had to painfully level them all to make them useful in pvp, but now they have a new "fair arena mode" where all characters become max level for pvp so its really fun.
I honestly can't find any good all feature trailers and while the single class trailers are pretty well made its hard to have them represent the game because changing a class often times changes your gameplay completely. Well, heres a few random videos.
