I’m going to need you guys to test and see if this can happen with any command grab. 

"DRAGON INSTAL-"

"Not on my or my dolphins' watch, buddy. >.<"

All I know about Guilty Gear's story is that it's some kind of post-apocalyptic future world based on our real world that was destroyed by machines or something like that, there are also kings and popes and shit, the Valentines are hot superhuman chicks that are made to look like Sol's dead wife or something (?), and the whole thing is really just an original self-insert fanfiction by Daisuke Ishiwatari where he is obviously Sol living in his fantasy Rock & Roll world full of crazy technology and impossibly hot chicks.

Man, some of these missions are finicky as hell. 
 

I just did the safe jump one and it’s kind of bullshit. 
 

I’m guessing that there’s certain frames you have to hit, but there’s so many instances where I did exactly what it asked me to do and I still failed 😤

Just wait for the sixth one in the hardest tier, the one that explains to you that Dash Roman Cancels can also move upward and downward, and will ask you to do a combo where you have to do a special, then cancel the airborne special into a downward dash Roman Cancel, then rapidly cancel the Roman Cancel into another special, then do an easy juggle after that.

My timing got really messed up on that one because in this game it seems that special cancels won't work if you press stuff too quickly, so in that mission first you need to input the first two normals and the special relatively slowly and then put turbo mode and press down, down, Roman Cancel and Quarter Circle Backward Slash within half a second or it won't work.

This dude said “mildly” 😂

I know, right?

That shit is too tame to be showed in a church, mildly my ass!

Where is the real spicy stuff? 😠

So, I got the game and I'm labbing characters.

So far I've checked Ramlethal, Giovanna and May, which are the characters I'm interested as main. Ram because she got big mid-range pokes which is the style I like, Giovanna because she looks both cool and easy and I'm not used to how GG works, and May even though she wouldn't be a character I'm interested but she looks instinctively fun to use.

Oh my God, May is actually so dumb.

It's so easy to imagine running into someone new to fighting games and make him refund the game just by spamming fast dolphin it's actually frightening.

Imagine doing this and sending GGs right after

 

 

Fair.

She needs it.

How did that happen anyway? I know Chipp is made of wet paper, but surely not wet enough to die to a single super.

I just got Strive. I’m new to the GG series and I’m looking for a character to main. Since many people here

seem to be very knowledgeable about the series, I refer to you for some input when it comes to choosing my main.

 

I kind of know what I want out of the game. After years of playing fighting games, growing older (and hopefully wiser, unlikely though)

I don’t really care about tiers anymore, or my online win rate, or whether I can pull off the newest, fanciest combos.  

After some self-reflection, I figured out why I really play fighting games, and why I have been partaking in the FGC for so long.

 

…And that is to play so infuriatingly and annoyingly that my opponents are sent into rage-induced seizures and dragged

away in a straitjacket kicking and screaming, but not before smashing their sticks with their foreheads and chucking their

monitors out of the window while frothing at the mouth and hysterically yelling “I BET IT’S THAT FUCKING BLANKA PLAYER!!”

 

In short, if I get ‘ggs’ instead of ragequits, I’m playing the wrong character. Who would be the best character

for me in Strive? Before you suggest May, I’m not going to play her. It’s not that I don’t like the cutesy, adorable

archetype - or else I wouldn’t be playing Blanka, after all – but I just don’t like her playing style. I’m looking for a hard

zoner or a hit ‘n run type of character. Any suggestions for a complete GG beginner?

Ramlethal is a mid-range character that can zone with long normals and her specialty is pressuring people to death once she manages to drive them into the corner, she's also top tier and complained about so she can cover the ragequit thing.

Otherwise Faust is not a top tier but is a weirdo character with even longer normals and uses random items as a main mechanics, which might be good to make unfamiliar opponents feel confused and annoyed, like Blanka does.

Guilty Gear Strive is officially out.

To celebrate here's an artwork of Ramlethal and Elphelt wearing shirts.

Luong's visual design is too good to be left out.

Well, obviously.

Well, we know this was coming.

 

 

We got our first full team after Team Fatal Fury. I think this is the first time they have been called Team Orochi, it used to be New Face.

 

Favorite parts are them remaking the old unique intros between the team at 0:50 and 1:02.

My first reaction upon seeing the thumbnail was to think "Oh, that girl looks cute".

My second reaction was to check her name.

"Chris"

Mind immediately goes to an image of Chris Redfield.

Damn you Japan and your androgynous pretty boys.

We have produced an environment where Tweets with less than 10 likes come out with an unironic tone of corporate apologies, everybody is completely aware that all of this is fake shit but everybody is still expected to perform because they're either forced to or interested in keeping the charade going.

Anyways:

Nothing is funnier to me than SFV Ken players

 

 

That was intense.

EX Tatsu from fullscreen into ragequit was the stuff of legend. I can imagine that Ken players doing real tatsumakis while playing.

Capcom doesn't strike me as a company particularly into reboots, at least the Japanese side of the company. The only exception has been the DmC reboot and see how well that went. Capcom is more like the company that has never rebooted its more mainstream and more story-focused Resident Evil franchise, whose lore is just as tortuous and who doesn't even use a floating timeline like Street Fighter, so the incident of Raccoon City happened in 1998, RE7 is set in 2017, and Chris and Jill are probably close to their 50s at this point.

Rose's line is maybe a suggestion that Zero 4 might happen, but even if something like that actually happens it's probably going to add to the existing story rather than rewrite it.

For Chun-Lis Morrigan Costume, how the actual F, do her tits not spring out, the moment she starts moving?

Advanced anime tiddy physics.

You need a CERN-tier PhD in order to understand them, and Capcom also uses a CERN-like giant underground lab to test these advanced physics before releasing them as costumes.

And since we were talking about RE8 and Resetera, here's a random Resetera moment that I found entirely by accident.

This is what hating horny makes to your brain:

I still don't get why they got vampires and werewolves in that, but whatever I guess. Umbrella logo on the weird table in the trailer like they were really out there making those. 🤣

Umbrella Corps Shareholder meeting:

Umbrella Shareholder #1: "We need new ideas to shake up our bioweapon department, something bold and innovative to appeal to younger audiences in the bioweapon- acquiring demographic!"

Umbrella Shareholder #2: "How about airborne Super Ebola?"

Umbrella Shareholder #1: "Too bland. Anything else?"

Umbrella Shareholder #3: "How about we pledge our support for the most recent political movement and/or sexual identity on Twitter, and offer them a discount for buying some of our horrifying flesh monsters to spice up their protests?"

Umbrella Shareholder #1: "We ain't offering discounts for shit, but using Twitter to make us look good for a good cause is a nice idea. We need something more radical!"

Umbrella Shareholder #4: "Okay, hear me out on this... Literal werewolves."

Umbrella Shareholder #1: "..."

Umbrella Shareholder #4: "And Gothic castles. And witches and hags. And a small European village straight outta Transylvania."

Umbrella Shareholder #1: "Transylvania sounds like something that might have appeal among progressive audiences, but I don't know if-"

Umbrella Shareholder #4: "And a 3 meters tall lady vampire with giant anime tiddies!"

Umbrella Shareholder #1:  *Slams fist* "THIS MAN IS A GENIUS, HOW DOES HE DO IT!?"

I just played the RE8 demo without having followed the game much outside of hearing about big-tiddy 3-meters-tall vampire lady.

My reaction is that I can't believe Capcom is just making Bloodborne 2.

Ah I thought that was a general CPT Rule, alright then.

The CPT rules only ban costumes if they mess with the gameplay, like Gill's Pyron costume that has weird visual effects all over the place or Mika's cheerleader costume where she has pom-poms covering her hands.
