More styles would improve gameplay
Yes you can create your own school and "style" i use style lightly as you are really limited to just 4 styles while there could be so many more like Praying Mantis or Chang Quan for me and i think for many the core defense skill like the absorb of stagger is the basis of the style and it makes the style in many ways for me. there should also have been grapple moves to swing an opponent or know them over where then roles could be used as defense or even some kick moves could have the ability to both attack and put you back on your feet
