Just got my hands on Extend, a couple days late.
Celica, while I enjoy her playstyle, is very boring. Did anyone else get this impression from her? Her healing super only heals, like 750-1000 health without holding down the button, which is not very useful for the meter it requires, not to mention how long the startup is. Her overdrive heals a decent amount pretty quickly, though, which is interesting. She definitely seems pretty low-tier; her 5B has really good range, but otherwise she doesn't have much to her and I can't find a way to convert a long-range basic 5B hit into damage, though, although I didn't spend much time trying to check. Her hurtbox is absolutely gigantic, which of course needs to be said.
Lambda I really like; her new special seems useful at a first glance, and I'm looking forward to not have the different forms I disliked about Nu.
The visual effect on her is beautiful, as well, although I'd have liked if they changed her sprite to separate her from Nu.
I only spent a few hours with Extend, though, so this is really just first impressions.
I know none of you probably care, but nobody seems to be talking about Extend since the American release and I feel like it deserves some discussion now that we can play it
