Fricking lmao.
The mother fricking state of modern Guilty Gear is really something else.
Let's be honest here, I think I never be this disappointed in a fighting game ever, I should've known that from the start with the shitty wall break and lack of aerial combo, but I lied to myself until the end.
Strive is the embodiment of a Souless game.

      Strive is the embodiment of a Souless game.

      It's clearly that they appealed to new players by simplifying the moveset of everyone. I think it's a bad idea to bring old complex characters since their gamrplay and mechanics wouldn't work.

      The trans characters were used to make old fans mad and to create discussion. Even people who didn't play anymore but still liked the series got into heated discussions or talked about the game.

      The fan favorite characters are being held hostage for the time when the Strive players begin to leave/abandon the game.

      Old games just wanted to deliver cool games full of story and mechanics.
      The new games are only products to cash money, they'll butcher anything if it brings more money at the end of the day.

        They could've at least kept some of them if they pushed the XX cast out. Where the frick is Slayer? Where the frick is Zappa? Where the frick is A.B.A?

            I hit a really bad depressive slump due to long-standing issues involving self-hatred and child abuse, and vented to this chick who, at the time, was a good friend. I admitted to hating the fact that I was male due to a lifetime of seeing girls being favored over boys, my stepmom and aunt treating me like a scary brute when I'd get angry, my stepmom being a violent abuser in general, and me being fat and ugly. She REALLY tried to wink-wink nudge me into transitioning, saying that I'm absolutely a trans woman and that as scary as it might seem, I'd be happier after transitioning. Being an idiot desperate for affection, I actually considered it. But oddly enough, anti-trans sentiment actually saved me from ruining my life because it exposed me to the ugly side of transitioning that these groomers try to hide, such as the health issues you run into, the mental problems that arise as a result, and the fact that I'd still be ugly even if I transitioned.

            I've long since cut her out of my life and have been working hard on self improvement. I've lost weight and been taking better care of myself, and while my self-esteem might never truly improve, I'm happier having accepted myself as male than I'd be living a life and butchering my body. The fact that she showed no hesitation whatsoever in trying to push me into trooning out still makes me angry to this day. It's such a genuinely ghoulish thing to do.

            But yeah, Bridget was a mistake and I hope BedSis remains free from any trans-frickery Arcsys might be contemplating.

        It is hard to save people these days, once they join a lgbt group its pretty much over as everything you say is just going to be "transphobic" to them and they will try to cut you off from your friends. I do feel sorry as most of these people are just depressed and friendless, they join a group where people fill their heads with ideas how they are just sad cause they are actually a girl and how happy they will be once they are a girl, but several years later they look just a really ugly guy and even more depressed than before.

        One of my best friends was always gay, but that was ok with me. We hang out with other friends and everyone was chill with it. Then when the troony movement came around like 10 years ago he became an obnoxious person. Its not that you're gay, its that you're ONLY gay. Every conversation was around it, every topic was a landmine, and everyone was out to get him somehow.
        I would say i miss him, but thats the path he chose and thats ok i guess. They do prey on unstable people. Not fair for sensitive people like him, but still, he's a grown ass gay dude, he should know what he's doing.

    Ok, everyone complaining about their favorite characters not being in or Bridget being trans or whatever are all secondaries who never cared about Guilty Gear. Strive sucks, Strive sucked from day 1 and Strive will continue to suck for the foreseeable future. The game plays more like a Street Fighter game than Guilty Gear, except it lacks the depth and dynamics of even Street Fighter which in turn means it's an incredibly stale and linear game with nothing to discover and matches that always end up the same. The game is shit, it's boring, it's braindead and have been since day 1. The fact that no one complains about this but complains about Bridget being trans really shows that no one actually cared about the game beyond being able to jerk of to their favorite little trap. If you genuinely cared about the series you would have already given up on Strive day 1 and called everyone playing Strive out for playing a dumbed down shit game for casuals.

          Strive selling selling like sf and not gg kept Capcom from throwing sf6 on the backburner and instead tried to get it out the door asap. The only thing player numbers where doing before strive where going down slowly and steadily. Each successive release in gg was selling less and less as well.

          You can continue being a moron now

            This is nothing new, it's just a problem with development and higher ups being moronic.
            Is the same situation as Black Panther and monster Hunter in MVCI, they were meant to be part of the core roster but Sony and Disney wanted them to be DLC.
            Is not an uncommon practice but it is extremely moronic.

              If Daisuke wasn't a senile moron he'd have made Bridget a man's man in Strive, y'know, showcasing that he'd completely felt fulfilled and no longer needed to hide his masculinity. That would be character growth, instead he went into the literal opposite direction.

        No. The series got put on ice because of IP rights frickery, which is why they made BB. Xrd was supposed to be the big comeback and we both now how that turned out. Strive was made because BB always struggled to make money, especially with the arcade scene dying, and BB eclipsed it in arcades as well.

      Unfortunately Strive has brought in a lot of casuals, and with the whole Bridget strife, it increased exponentially. Now the characters and even the music are memed on, artists on twitter and whatever draw the characters for easy clicks (mostly bridget, shocker), it's turned entirely a shell of itself. So now others pretend to play it because it's the "LGBT" embracing game and want to fit in I guess?

            >Do the same thing for the story, meaningless retread of themes without actually blatantly stating anything
            >Braindead western translators decide Bridget is trans
            >Internet in uproar, boomers at ArcSys just confused
            >Realize that if they say Bridget isn't trans, they lose the profitable western fanbase Strive was dumbed down to target

            >Brings in new demographic of autistic, terminally online trannies that more than makes up for any hardcore japanese fans they pissed off
            >$$$$
            Making Bridget trans was either an accident that they rolled with or a business decision, nothing else. If Daisuke or whoever wrote strive actually gave a shit about "trans rights", Bridget's story in Strive would have had all the subtlety of a trans woman in a boxing match.
            Not that it really matters, since Strive was garbage from the start. And Bridget is still a dude in the only medium that matters.

              Anonymous

              It places greater emphasis on other movement options. A lot of people don't, or have not played old fighting games where the lack of movement options isn't really that big of an issue because walk speeds were high and the average distance between characters was fairly low, not to mention there often being baked in movement options for characters such as E. Honda's headbutt. Samurai Shodown has slow movement speeds but the space between characters is tighter than it seems because everyone has crazy threat range on top of how high the blowup potential is.

              Because anime games try to undermine the importance of neutral movement in any way possible. By making walking backwards impractical or useless you prevent people from making subtle movements back and forth to bait with spacing, instead people can only retreat with committed animations like backdash or jump/IAD backwards. This is one of the many reasons why anime has no neutral.

    It's astounding that people still b***h and whine about Strive when there are 2 other perfectly good and better Guilty Gear games to play.

    I thought we established that Strive is a shitty installment in the series since its inception, why the frick are you still crying about it? Both the roster and gameplay suck and are outright worse than its predecessors. I don't even give a frick about the gender politics, it has nothing to do with the gameplay, which is already fricking garbage to begin with.

        Same. I guess Daisuke decided to take his cat ears away because he thought that western normies would find it too weird. It doesn't make any sense from the story's perspective though. Asuka spend frick ton of years living in the Backyard and studying its potential phenomenons of altering reality. All the residents of Backyard were a weird race of cat-humans and after a while, Asuka started to look exactly like them because staying in that reality causes you to change into their race.

It was only after SF4 that Shartsystem decided to capitalize on VNgays with Blazlue(notice how it isn't about fgs, at all) and then normalized paid character dlc with Continuum Shift.

                That DBFZ was clearly a gateway game that reignited interest in fighting games as a whole. You think strive would've been made if it weren't for Goku and Vegeta bailing arcsys from the pit of irrelevance they were in?

                You undestimate the number of people who bought dbzf and not a single other fighting game in the past decade. Arcsystem knows this as well, they have the sales data friend.

                What point, that no fighting game publisher looked at the success of dbzf and decided to push production because ot was the dbz audience? The point that the dbzf and gg audience has almost no crossover? The fact 99% of people who bought dbz couldn't nave the dev or a previous game by them?

                Strive saved you idiots from waiting till mid decade for some new mainline entries in large fgc series.

    Bedman being the most recent character is the least hype thing imaginable. It's like they really wanted to make sure everybody who quit playing Strive never comes back to give it another try.

              It all stems in the liberal (not american definition) tradition of living and letting live. You grant people rights, and once they have the rights they want, you expect them to enjoy their seat at the table and act proper. Not with the alphabet crowd. You give them a foot, they want a mile. Liberal democracy isn't equipped to deal with bad actors self-imposing phantom "oppression" over themselves to reap societal benefits. It's something that's never happened before.

                No.
                Leaving aside that a tight enough frametrap will always hit you, the timing is extremely tight on that sort of dash blocking. You get the link-buffer for the dash but you don't get any sort of buffer for the block. Skyll's movement in that tournament was truly absurd and there's a reason you don't see anyone else doing that sort of stuff.

      japs don't play videogames anymore besides apex legends and gachashit. It's unsustainable to market only towards them

      Because anime games try to undermine the importance of neutral movement in any way possible. By making walking backwards impractical or useless you prevent people from making subtle movements back and forth to bait with spacing, instead people can only retreat with committed animations like backdash or jump/IAD backwards. This is one of the many reasons why anime has no neutral.

          What does that have to do with the game being fraudulent?

          Nice greentext homosexual but the decision of whether or not to break the wall is STILL one that hasn't been solved for most characters and either choice requires varied combo routes depending on prior situation and position, leading to far more depth than just doing your highest damage combo in the corner like every other fighting game.

          There's nothing to solve it's just another combo route situation where you change your route depending on the conversion you can get off hits, except now the game pretends the one who got launched through the wall is in a more advantageous situation compared to older games (protip: they're not, it's all smoke and mirrors).

            What a meaningless sentence.
            Regardless, no. How much health the wall has is a huge factor in high level combo routing, requiring often vastly different combo routes to ensure the wall either does not break, breaks in the optimum position for super for oki, or breaks with maximum damage. You have three different end-goals to choose from AND any different number of hits to achieve that goal.
            >protip: they're not, it's all smoke and mirrors
            Except for the characters where positive bonus is hugely impactful. Or with wallbreak super oki. Or if you just do not break the wall.

            Oh, sorry, actual decisions? That's too much for a moronic training mode monkey who can't see beyond getting a conversion into a combo. Strive is a game for people who PLAY games.

              The previous games already achieved it with characters having larger movesets, lower damage and better universal mechanics.
              Do you think your Robo-Ky corner combo on Kliff is the same exact route as, say, Potemkin or Venom?
              If you say it's different then you're completely delusional and you're the one who needs to play games.
              >Except for the characters where positive bonus is hugely impactful.
              Positive Bonus is hugely impactful for anyone to begin with, mostly because it's just stacking on Tension Pulse.
              But since you talk so big why don't you actually show me how good you are in +R, since apparently you play so much and people who play the older GGs don't?
              Surely, such an expert player of a mechanically deep, well balanced and thoughtfully designed entry such as Strive would have no difficulty in beating poor little me, who barely plays more than 2 hours a week.

                None of those affect combos being dynamic.
                >Do you think your Robo-Ky corner combo on Kliff is the same exact route as, say, Potemkin or Venom?
                Per character combo variety is not even vaguely equivalent to in-match dynamic combo variety. You aren't making choices there, you're just grinding out a different set of always-optimal combos.
                Because you do not play games, you jerk yourself off over how complex a game could be if you had more than a passing familiarity with how to actually play it.
                >show me how good you are at +R
                No, because I don't play that game at all seriously. I frick around with the funny Sol sidewinder combos with my friends on occasion but I don't pretend it's a real game I would ever want to actually truly learn.

                >None of those affect combos being dynamic.
                They absolutely do, because unlike Strive, there's way better universal mechanics at play, better moveset design, actual movesets etc.
                >Per character combo variety is not even vaguely equivalent to in-match dynamic combo variety.
                It absolutely is, because every character will need specific adjustments and inherently deeper combo theory depending on who they are, where you are on the screen, what they get hit by etc., don't pretend for a second Strive is doing anything new coming from the old games, don't ever pretend it's more dynamic than older games or really most game around because you have shitty mechanics DoA had since ages ago.
                This is doubly important when we consider corner scenarios because unlike Strive, you have a much wider variety of scenarios due to again, better universal mechanics and deeper movesets, let alone the fact that you don't have those toddler tier 1 second screen freeze for easy confirms.
                But hey, nice dodge by the way.
