The Problem why it is like that at the beginning is because the cpu ist pretty bad (especialy at the start) so you can often do the same thing to just dribble to the whole defense. Something to remember about the gameplay of the game is even the worst players can take the ball away from the best players if they are played correctly. And like others have said everyone as 2 dribble animations and you have to do the right one. Which makes it very unlikely that you will just dribble to the whole defense like that later on. And if you manage to do it it definitely doesn't feel or look as boring like that.
So Tsubasa story is national matches, then New hero story is the international matches ? And I take it you can recruit the strong players you meet in the Tsubasa matches for the national team ?
Basicly yes, but you can't realy recruit them, because the normal international tournament (from the anime) was canceled and switched to the US one the practice matches where canceled as well so you get a new school tournament with your new players in one of the 3 teams you can choose. And that is where the New Hero Story starts. And you just follow the story along there.
Yeah basically on Tsubasa's story is very rare that someone tackles you (at least so far), judging by your post I take it changes going forward which is exciting. :)
This is absolutely not my experience. I can't keep the ball at all. Every match in Tsubasa's story is taking me 5-6 retries to squeak out a win, often in penalties. The cpu defense feel like a brick wall and every time they touch the ball they score.

Yeah it changes a little bit but in the story mode itself I think it never goes further than the second difficulty. So I never realy had any Problems at any Point of the Story. I wish you could set the difficulty for the story Mode yourself. Playing it in the highest difficulty would be way more exciting.
But at least the Problem that you can just run through everyone will be solved later
Do you try to get past them with R1 or R2? Because in the story mode at the beginning you can get past them with R2 most of the time.
Yeah I watched the tutorials on YouTube going into release and understand the rock paper scissors mechanics for slide tackles and standing tackles vs the two dodge types. The problem is execution. I can dodge one or two of them but I can't get enough room to breathe to set up crosses into the box or even long distance shots. I'll pass it downfield instead and immediately get slide tackled. On defense, Im trying as hard as possible to take the ball back before the star player gets it, as that is sure to lead to a cutscene involving my team being scored on. I love the game a lot, just finding myself extremely frustrated with feeling unable to do anything.
In the classic Tecmo series on the NES / SNES, later games had your players level up when you lose. This meant that the better you were in setting up your offense and defense in the earlier games, the more underleveled you were in the later games.
I really hope they tuned the difficulty to avoid that feeling of having your characters nerfed to create a sense of challenge.

I never lost so can't say what happens if you do but i always got a "no retry" bonus stat boost. So i think never losing will just give you better stats
well, you really can't make a comparison, in Italy even national newspaper were talking about the game.
Same! Particularly a Hajime no Ippo game.
I'm not all that into soccer and have not seen Captain Tsubasa before but I am interested because of how fun and arcade-y this looks. I might consider this on a sale but I love all the clips I'm seeing, it has a really great style.
Me too. Even smaller outlets like Easy Allies and ACG haven't covered it at all.
IGN have a couple trailers that are around a million each and yet they still have no review up.
GamingBolt review.
"Captain Tsubasa: Rise of New Champions is not a perfect game, and it's not the most mechanically dense game, but thankfully, it doesn't have to be. Its strengths lie in its unhinged, over-the-top on-pitch action and its delightfully silly presentation."

Wait, is the PC version blocked on Steam in Japan? Why does Bandai Namco keep doing this? It makes no sense.
Austin Walker gave this a shout out on the latest Waypoint Radio podcast. He made it sound super good! I'm even more intrigued now.
I dunno. I feel pretty lost as a newcomer to the series. They throw like ten names at you at once. And when customizing your Dream Team they don't have character portraits, so I'm flipping through dozens upon dozens of names without knowing a vast majority of them.
Feels like a lot was skipped with even the first real story match in the flashback being the regional finals. I wish they were more accommodating to new people but at least the gameplay is fun as hell.
There was an early video that showed it between 25-30, with drops to near 20 for the cutscenes
Just finished Tsubasa's episode, managed to get a draw at the final to get the correct ending (I almost lose lol).
Final screen of the episode:
One of the coolest scenes:

I really want to pick this up as it just looks... awesome and fun haha. Having a hard time deciding between PS4 and Switch though. Also, I'm not familiar with the series at all... would I play story mode and then career mode or doesn't it matter?
Career mode is alt history so it's not as bad but you'd get more nuance knowing the story. I mean all you'd need is the original manga not the sequels but you should be fine
Switch version is really fun, performance is better on PS4 but playing in bed has been worth it
Gotcha. I kind of just meant when playing the game... which mode should I do first?
Yeah, that's always the thing with Switch haha! I ended up getting the Switch version.
Tsubasa's story is meant to be played first. The game says the other mode is for experienced players.
I played like 3 versus last night and it was fine but I started Journey today and it just keeps hard freezing. I'd say wait it out for a bit.
The rock paper scissor mechanic when it comes to dribbling and tackling feels like it needs to be tightened up more. Or explained better. Reddit is saying R1 beats defenders R2. And R2 beats defenders R1. But I'm definitely getting shoulder checked (defender R1) out of my R2 dodge.
I think it is as they say, basically if the two players press the same button, the defender wins. If the attacker doesn't press anything, the defender will win if they press either. That's what I understood from the tutorial anyway (you can check it again from the main menu).
But Im more talking about english speaking accounts. In almost any other country people are well aware of the anime
The game is actually fun.. they just need to fix the crashes.. 2x speed and resolution problems asap.
The more I play the game, yeah. It's basically gimped Rock Paper Scissors (two moves rather than three tho). And yeah, watching the animation has tricky timing but now it feels like it's registering more consistently when I see them go for a slide and I press R1. Or I think they're gonna shoulder charge and I press R2.
I honestly feel like there's input delay because there are times when I am pressing square to charge and nothing happens, then I release the face button and repress it and NOW it registers.
Seems glitchy in general with timing and button inputs.
Damn. This is starting to get frustrating against the twins. I score a goal and they automatically turn on turbo mode and tie the game that ends in a penalty shootout. Literally charging all my shots and they manage to block. But all the ones I block of them go right though my hands.
Fuck this right now.
Fuck this right now.
Heh, yeah, the game in general is definitely trying my patience.
