aside from maybe GGAC, SSF4 was probably the most balanced 2d fighter (no fighter has ever been perfect but god it was close). the AE iteration detracted from that however and has quite a bit more character bottleneck with a glaring god tier as well (he is still not as bad as vanilla sagat though). there's no denying that AE was for sure a step backwards though.

There will always be some characters that shit on others and weird match ups, as with any game. They're planning on releasing a balance patch so don't let that hold you back. The next game coming out is Street Fighter X Tekken (I believe), I don't think that will replace AE any time soon. Even if it did, All the skill you build with playing AE will transfer over. As with any other fighting game, Imo. If you are not particular to either, I would suggest investing in a Fight Stick. I've had mine for a while and I'm still not completely used to it like I should be. | ||

The upcoming SFxT should be pretty close to SF4 in terms of gameplay, but MvC3 is a different beast. Of course the basic mechanical skills apply to both, QC/DP motions etc, but being good in SF4 doesn't really stop you from getting dominated in MvC3. It's still a fun game and worth learning though, it just requires its own hours spent in training mode. | ||

Footsies, spacing, blocking etc. look very similar in the videos I've seen so far. Tag combos are of course new, but they're not the whole game. e: I guess it looks so similar because everyone plays it like it's SF4, I suppose the metagame will evolve once the game is actually out. | ||
