Guilty Gear Strive - ArcSys fighting game

[AN4RCHID]

New character trailer dropped at CEO

 

[Sunri]

Baiken noice

 

[just]

i was waiting for baiken so i can continue not buying the game

 

[Sunri]

I recently returned to ggs, and it works a lot faster now so that's good I already have my main so i won't be shilling for dlc characters anyway but good to see some big booba.

 

[Nathir]

Looks like another character with the Xrd model ported over, just like Jack-O. I did hope for a redesign for Baiken, since almost all the classic characters got one. I was hoping something more in line with the XX versions. That look is so much cooler then the Xrd one.

 

[Generic-Giant-Spider]

You know her tits are real good when I didn't notice for the longest time she was missing an arm.

 

[AN4RCHID]

Finally got Celestial after like 30 challenges. I didn't even get in beating other challengers, it was legit celestials. Feels fucking good man.

Releasing this Friday

 

[RoBoBOBR]

interesting stuff with bungee, too bad no azami or guard-cancels though.

 

[AN4RCHID]

Sunri Nathir why decline? Genuinely curious, I did not play the earlier games so I don't have any strong opinion on how Baiken should be. The trailer looked pretty cool to me.

 

[Sunri]

I never played her in older games but i hoped for some visual change.

Well, I don't like the new design as much as the old one. And the gameplay looks boring, jsut like all of Strive.

I only dabbled a little bit in previous GGs with Baiken but I was really excited for her Strive appearance. Unfortunately she lost a lot of her moves from previous GG, some which I thought were what made her unique in the first place. I mean, she has only 4 goddamn special moves. I don't understand why they had to completely gut her guard cancels and instead give her a boring ass parry. At least her air TK is still untouched (though it's not a TK input anymore I guess) I'll probably still play her but I am a bit disappointed.

To be fair, some other members of the Strive cast also only have four specials so her toolkit is not out of line in this game. She does look different to play than I expected. Everyone was saying she's a defensive character, but she almost looks more like a mixup/rushdown, with a parry.

What is this, ResetEra big tit shaming? That's very un body positivity of them.

Maligna up there is also either a fake fan or has dementia because Baiken has always had big tits in-game. Now the art may not have always been like that, but her sprite sure was.

 

[Sunri]

I love big titties, but I wonder why no one is talking about unrealistic male characters be it rpg or anything else every nerd have 6 pack

It was a DP motion, now it's QCF. Still requires a TK to do it as low and as fast as possible.

You're right. I meant to say DP instead of TK in that situation.

What is that guy even referring to with "moving a bit away from this"? The game always had fan service through the roof for both sexes. And if they're referring to big booba they released Jack-O half a year ago.
At least it's clear non of these clowns are actually playing the game and instead just complain about cartoon breasts.

 

[Nathir]

Does it even matter if her tits were big or not? The new look is just straight up bad character design. It looks like they should spill out of her dress after merely walking forward, much less fighting. The old one was way more elegant and battle-ready. New one is just like it came from a hentai.

[Sunri]

Seems good, but I still didn't test all default characters, so I'm not buying any character dlc.

They're almost exactly the same. I assume they just brushed up the old model a little bit

I only played two of these games but I always loved the animations and flow. Are the PC ports worth a damn because they are often on sale?

I haven't played the older games but they added rollback netcode to Accent Core +R recently, so the PC port is supposedly a good online experience now. Xrd still has the old delay based netcode.

Strive is a lot of fun IMO and has smooth online. The biggest issue is the lobby system is annoying and buggy. AFAIK the PC port is identical to the PS4 version except it doesn't have forced input delay, so it's actually superior.
