Should the Special Moves all be 2 directions+ 1 Button

Some of the older games would have moves that would require a F,D,F or B,D,B etc. command prompt.

I think to keep the game fast paced all moves should be 2 directions and a button. It makes it smooth and keeps it quick. And you dont want your opponent to keep checking his moves list.

Its probably insanely hard to memorize every characters moves, but if its just 2 directions you can jump in a match and pretty much figure it out by trial and error real quick.
 
I think they did that in Deadly Alliance, Deception, and Armageddon.

Not sure about Armageddon but Deception still had 3 directions + a button. I remember because I played as a Ermac a lot and his slam was still back, down, back, *button*

I never really had a problem with the three directions but I'm fine with it going to only two.
 
Well I don't think they would change it anyways. It's been that way for a long time. And I like it that way.
 
I agree that they should remain 2d+1 button. Like everyone says it keeps the game fast paced. To me the enhanced version using R2/RT gives it a little more of depth but still fast paced.
