a “suite” or a “movement” could follow
that’s not a “what if.” the X/XX games were of questionable status in the continuity, not the Drama CDs :rolleyes:
alot of the drama CDs took place in the x/xx universe though. so is daisuke saying that the whole x/xx universe is retconned or is he saying just the games?
honestly, i had no idea about this non-canon business was happening until i saw it on skuld’s LJ
there an interview or source we can see to confirm this mess?
a bit of clarification shows up:
like i said before… you guys are stirring up rumors from reading stuff written by somebody who has mixed information of fact, rumors and just plain misunderstanding
let’s not turn this into some crap fan fiction talk, guys
I can’t access the live journal from here, so I wasn’t able to read this “questionable source”
After Insuka, Dust Strikers, and now this, I’m convinced Daiske will completely remove combat from the next GG and make it a Mario party ripoff (called an action-strategy Game of Chance ) for the wii titled Guilty Gear: Pair-a-Dice.
I’d rather he just place Overture after X/XX =(
Why remove them from the story entirely, WTF.
Hahaha if this is true then its pretty funny. I mean it sucks i liked the old story but it wasnt exactly going anywhere fast either. I just find it funny.
This means cool people like Sol, Robo Ky, ABA, and Slayer got left out (unless they are in OVerture)
lol Sol is like the main character of overture
Ed’s been pretty on par before. Suffice to say,
GG2
Spoiler
I think Ky slept with some random gear chick we’ll never see, but he DID have Sin with her. That much is indeed fact.
i think its Dizzy mainly because of the wings.
and as Theria said on Dustloop:
Given that Dizzy was calling the Devil’s Forest her home when she was introduced in the story, i’m gonna say that title is more than just descriptive. Then again, that’s just my opinion and it is rather ambiguous.
Youtubes for the Nico-impaired

So if X and XX never happened, does this mean characters like Slayer and Johnny and just about half of the interesting characters never existed? He couldn’t do that to our beloved characters.
I really hope this isn’t the end of the 2D games, but I heard Daisuke had said that Overture was always something that he had wanted to do, but never had the technology until now, and it’s how he intended GG to be from the start. That kinda worries me.
But hey, has anyone listened to the soundtrack from this game yet? It’s AMAZING!
Johnny was in May’s ending in GG1 (hell her whole GG1 storyline revolved around her breaking him out of jail), since we know THAT exists, he’s hasn’t disappeared
As for Slayer, things get a bit more tenuous, but Ky does tell his soldiers to not make any contact with members of the Assassin’s Guild, so they’re still around and Slayer is (was?) a key part of that storyline.
