>I can say it has a more "experimental" feel than other SNK series
This is true.
>1 and 2
SF2 with swords
>III
You got 3 slashes and a single kick button. you're movement options are limited as you have to rely on dodging, blocking or disarming.
All characters have two versions of them with different moves each. Insane damage, even more so with the percentile based counter hit bonuses. Sadly buggy and pretty unbalanced, still fun though

>IV
Expanded on III. Gave everyone a dial a combo, including a 15-hit combo which if you successfully pull off gives you full meter. Apparently their solution for the high damage problem was doubling the size of the life bar and yet add more ways for high damage, including a "Issen" slash that does more damage according to your remaining health.

>V
Life bars went back to normal, no more Slash or Bust versions.Went to two slash buttons, one kick button and a dedicated dodge button. Damage is mitigated by the "Sword meter". Similar to Legendary Axe and Astyanax attack bar. Has the "neverland mode" in which you can activate a bullet time state but only in a round where you would lose the match and you can use your super meter to increase the length of neverland by meditating mid match.
V special is a refinement of the above but adds a fatality move which you can do only in a round that you can win the match in.

What the fuck am I reading.

Although SS3 is one of the best looking fighting games and I agree that 5s justlooks fucking boring and drab, but 3 is fucking garbage with that high damage, shit hitbox and brutal a.i.
It's a shame really, I like 3 also and it would have been great with more polish and a LOT more playtesting. I can hardly think of Samsho without the AB heavy now.

>best music
Samsho stopped having good music from 3 and onward. 3 has a few good tracks like this one:

But the rest is garbage. Same for 4, 5 and 6.
