I'm having problems in general learning how to play in Actress Again, the right way. Some of my bad habits from when I started by playing Act Cadenza are happening again. I mess up reverse beats in a combo, the gameplay is so unfamiliar. And the only character I can do decent with is Ryougi. Help please. :slowpoke:

Is the problem mainly with combos, footsies, tech punishing, hit confirming, counter baiting, relying on dat 2A?

nornorcal is superpoorcal ._.

If you can play AC theres no reason you cant play AA. if you cant play AC then you cant play AA. They're very similar with some changes and whatnot, but pretty much the same.
Slight tip. PRACTICE MODE.

Most of the crescent-moon style characters are largely similar to their MBAC counterparts. Practise your main's Crescent style a shot and perhaps try out a different moon for variety.

Update: I'm getting more used to the gameplay, but I still have problems properly applying dem fighting game fundamentals to it. Also, I'm liking Full Moon more and more, especially F-Aoko, F-Akiha, and F-Mech Hisui. But I'll still play Ryougi in Half-Moon. Also, what's the best way to learn Sacchin? The changes made to her throws make me worse at playing as her.

Try to learn her bnb and then quit because she sucks.

Because Satsuki is seriously one of the least rewarding characters to play. Her bnb is one of the hardest in the game, and she's still low tier. Not that it means that much in this game, but the issue isn't the tier itself, but why she's low tier: her neutral game is really bad and oki is very good. So it's a gigantic pain to actually hit someone with her but if you do they can get trapped pretty easy in mixups. Still, this leads to situations like me sitting in the corner against HTohno for like 10 games in a row and no matter what button I press and what button the opponent presses Satsuki somehow manages to lose because her normals aren't good.
I mean, if you really want to. I haven't played Melty in like months because I'm awful and can't deal with the Satsuki execution barrier. She has a lot of the same problems as traditional grapplers, but I play Tager in BB because I can actually do his combos and Satsuki's combos made me want to quit this game.

Because learning her neutral game is a commitment unto itself. First you have to learn how to space jB, then you have to learn how to space jA, then how to do stupid stuff like crouch under aerials and make people cry. Basically, you have to learn how to force people to fuck up, and you have to be extremely patient. On top of all the rest you have to learn. But, as someone who stuck with Satsuki, she can be quite fun. As long you like getting that one satisfying hit into BLOOORAAARRRHAAGHLEBALG AYE AM DEFEATER OF ENEMY. She has pretty much the same problems she had in MBAC. But the dash mitigates it somewhat. See, that style of play appeals to me, hence my use of Arakune in BBCS. And seconding of ABA in GG.
Also the changes to her throws aren't that bad since she has BETTER bite setups now because of the dash. You can actually do rebeatless setups.
As for the execution barrier. The regular BnB isn't actually the worst part. Try jB CH -> 2C (1 hit) -> 3C 623[A] -> Blahblah. Spacing that 2C is character and distance dependent. But, if you can do this right, you can do your AAD trap off a single CH.

Ex-Guard becomes extremely important for Satsuki because of things like this.
