To put it simply : The simplier fighting games core mechanics are, the better the game appeal to most of the players. That is why games like SF2X and Third strike are considered the best and SFA3 are hated among fan as far as mecanics only are concerned. 

Blazblue is a fast game, with a lot of graphical effects with a lot of stuff to learn, too much stuff actually. Hence why it is so hard for most of the players to learn and play the game. I have no problem with it personally since I play fighting game for a long time now, but for new comers, I can understand that Blazblue is a no-no. There is absolutely no way to understand the mechanics instinctively like Street Fighter or King of fighter by just watching a game. 

Guilty gear XRD have done a lot of work to remove the most tedious mechanics and simplify the game. Some may consider it a bad thing, but it is the best Guilty gear so far, only the hardcore players of it are not happy since they can't abuse the system anymore like before and roll on newcomers without being touched. 


So, in resume... You don't like BB because is too hard for You? You probbly tried with Carl, Hakumen, Hazama or Rachel.. and trow out the towel.. -.-

No Blazblue is really simple, but since you understand jack shit by watching video of the game, I can understand why almost no one care about the game. It's hard to get hyped when the game try this hard to lost the player by a huge amount of effects, thousand of dull mechanics, air born dash, air guard... I am a Third Strike player, mind you, so Blazblue mechanics are nothing for me. But, impo, it's just one of the shittiest fighting game I ever played. 

Combo are long and simple to do, all the game is about okizeme, too much stuff you can abuse (Nu-13 in Chrono fantasma extend, seriousely...), the game's speed is way too high to play footsie or spacing... The game is just about spamming long range moves or projectiles, prey for them to it and then combo the hell out it for 15 seconds when it happens. 

The casting is cool and character looks very different from one others. Plus the story is far more intersting than kof or Sf. But that's all the game have for it. Mechanics and core gameplay wise, Blazblue games are not my stuff at all because I find them dull and stupid designed.
