DOA5's combat system has more than enough depth, and works well from an offensive and defensive stance. Adding sidesteps during stuns won't improve that but I'll agree to disagree.
Anyways, it would be cool if SoulCalibur had as thoughtful stage designs as DOA5 (or DOA4, DOA2U, DOA3, etc.). I really love the Flow, Temple of the Dragon, Hotspot and Home levels!
On a different note, I tested out 1.02 and I can proudly say that 4 & 5 bar matches can emulate offline matches. I was actually able to have a competitive match with a Jann Lee player! (Still hate his guts though...)
