I mostly played Narukami cause he was so easy back in the day but this time I'm gonna get really sweaty about Adachi. I watched some pro play, and he has my favorite play style in fighting games: Pavlov's offense, a character who is built around using tools to punish sloppy play to condition the opponent into either getting progressively more angry and more sloppy, or overly cautious and defensive so you can get away with stuff you shouldn't. Something about using human error and psychological pressure is so addictive, and he has a whole tool box relying on that aspect of fighting games is so sweet. Plus getting away with things you shouldn't is fun.

So glad you made a new video for 2.0. I watched the old one in preparation for this game but as someone who didn't play the original it was very difficult for me to understand some of the unique aspects of this game without being able to put hands on it (things like how the SP system worked, Persona breaks, Awakenings, Instakills, etc). This video is MUCH more beginner friendly, and is especially so now that I AM much more familiar with these mechanics as I can now play the game. Cheers

I'm admittedly... new to the 2D fighting game scene. I started with Antinomy of Common Flowers but when I heard P4AU was coming out again, I wanted to get it. I was kinda hoping someone could kinda guide me to a character type to play as to really get into a groove. I mean I kinda get pretty rushdown? A lot of my aggressive plays are corner pressure but I usually play with a close and zoning type in tag team games.

Yeah in 1.0 it used to do 80% damage, but now it got buffed to 90%. Individual damage is still worse then normal version, but the gap is much less noticeable. In 1.0 shadow health used to be a flat 2k increase across the board, but now it’s only 1k [Kanji/Akihiko only gets 500 specifically] Shadows no longer has meter carryover like they did in 1.0 Shadows now has burst that can be used as shadow fury resource. This is the big change that makes Shadows more viable because they have a defensive option they lacked before, unburstable combo that fixed Shadow Fury being weak before to go along with Awakening supers not needing awakening + reduced meter cost in Shadow fury ,

General consensus from top tiers and the Discord is that most Shadows are still "Pick and win" like Chie, a few are better than 1.0 like Yukiko and Kanji who can do some nutty stuff if you give them room to breathe, but yes it is a bit exaggerated. It's still pretty much Shadow Chie/Yu/Mitsuru/Sometimes Naoto running amok, just that a few others can be used and not be a troll pick.

It is exaggerated. Shadows are definitely much more viable now as they were largely gimmick status in 1.0, but you can still do fine with their normal counterparts.

Shadows are generally better than their normal variants, the difference isnt incredibly significant but it's still notable, it does vary a bit from character to character, and there are a lot of characters without shadow variants that are still quite good. Overall the character viability is more even across the entire cast than it was in 1.1 but it is definitely offensively skewed with shadows being a bit better overall.
