You could play as Leifang only to end up with a new costume for Hitomi. You can select from various AI difficulties and earn rewards, and yet you won’t know who they’re for. The same can be said for the regular arcade mode where you just face off against one opponent after another. Oddly enough, Dead or Alive 6 doesn’t actually tell you whose costumes you’d be unlocking! Oh, and you also get extra points to unlock some wardrobe. Your reward would be some extra gold used to buy costumes or wardrobe accessories (more on these later). For other matches, your task could be as simple as doing enough damage with a single combo. Sometimes you’re asked to do a ground attack, sometimes it’s a specific attack. Point is that “DOA Quest” simply pits a specific fighter against another, and you’d need to complete the requirements. Well, if you’re playing MMORPGs with rudimentary steps, then we can consider these as quests. Quest mode, funnily enough, doesn’t give you quests so much as simple checklists. Speaking of tacked on, we’ve got “DOA Quest” which is entirely separate from the story. This was my reaction after expecting a decent story. Surely if a game like Mortal Kombat can turn ungodly amounts of gore into something worth knowing more about, then perhaps Koei Tecmo could also learn a lesson. I take it that the story isn’t a fighting game’s strongest suit, but it’s 2019. If you choose English, then prepare for moments when the cartoonishly lackluster English VA doesn’t mesh well with character lip movement. You’re also better off selecting Japanese voice acting.
The story mode feels like an accessory - tacked on and almost unnecessary given the dubious quality. Even more perplexing is that certain scenes last longer than the single-round matches themselves.

Then again, last I heard the series wanted to be more mature. Does it have to be serious? Probably not. Hilarity ensues in some cutscenes, but hilarity exists in general since the tale is too whimsical and hokey to even take seriously. What is more glaring, however, is the presentation. The storyline’s branches - which are probably as convoluted as following “the old Reddit switcheroo.”Īs long as you commit to one branch at a time, the story shouldn’t be too hard to follow.
