Alright let's get the important part out of the way first.

The gameplay and netcode of this game are immaculate, top class for Street Fighter and fighting games in general. The Battle Hub lobby system is such a fantastic idea for trying to keep arcade culture alive in the current era of fighting games, and World Tour adds a lot of meat to the game that really brings back the joy of fighting game releases being full packages.

Now with all that out of the way, World Tour mode kinda sucks. It's a fun enough mode, but the things you do inside it are really mundane and boring. The main story of your character and Bosch going through your own paths to get stronger is neat, but everything surrounding that and the "filler" quests to keep the story going suck. Also not having the main cast more involved with the story is really lame.
