I'd say the ability to break your opponent's racket is by far the worst thing about the game. But yeah, it's gonna be a great game, I said that since they announced it.

Explain! I think racket breaking adds an extra layer of thought and strategy even if KOs rarely ever happen.

It goes completely against the core gameplay, which is Tennis. Sure there are special shots and such but purposefully breaking the racket is beside the point of the sport. And the consequence is also stupid. It's as if you are kicked out of the race if you get hit by too many shells in Mario Kart. More isn't always better and there is already plenty of depth in the game.

Good games achieve depth in gameplay without adding more and more features, but by having a solid foundation.
