Arcsystem works just released a developer interview based on the results of the closed beta feedback (you can look it over here: GUILTY GEAR -STRIVE- デベロッパーズバックヤード)
I’m pretty amused at the responses for which characters people want most to return, by region
Japan’s tastes are pretty different. The rest of the world seems to agree on which GG characters they want back the most but Japan says fuck Jack-o, I-no and Testament we want Bridget, HOS, and Anji lol
And you know what is the best part, Bridget has always been the less used char on every GG he has been according to their own data.
He is only popular with the perypheric demographic, the players dont give a shit about him be either because hsi design or because his gameplay, it doesnt help is a gameplay that consist of plaing lame on an aggressive fg, and that he is consistently mid to low on the tiers.
Testament and Ino on the other hand, i understand.
Edit
Also, fuck Johnny.
Good, now gimme Ram, I want to slap people with some big ass swords.
Sounds like there’s another norwegian grudge match coming up.
I made it at work whilst controlling a warehouse for one of the UK’s biggest retailers. Talking to 5-8 people, doing my job and making this. Its hard to normalize on OP1 but I suppose that’s why its so punk. Fuck it.
I sampled Busta Rhymes from some radio show? But fuck, I slept on Busta. I thought he was just some 90s shit pop rapper. A Tribe Called Quest opened my eyes. Fuck me. I apologise. I’m from Yorkshire and was raised on heavy metal and rave music. But damn, Busta is legit.
Didn’t think they would show the results like that for some reason. People really do love some samurai tits, huh? (Me Too).
Also surprised that Ramlethal was requested more than Elphelt in every region. At the very least, I expected the opposite in Japan.
Well considering he alluded to playing on wifi before that, which caused Volt to laugh at playing a wifi connection in Brazil, I think there are a few of us who didn’t feel the need to point it out. Obviously, there were a few who hadn’t picked up on it though.
I don’t mind. Our connection has been good so far.
I thought he was joking, I was like “No way the connection is this good on wifi, man’s almost in Canada.”
I was 100% sure Rooks was on WiFi tho. 
Last night was specially atrocious. Every time I activated genei jin it would spazz out.
Johnny made #2 in every region? Dang.
No respect for my boy Izuna. Slayer making Top 10 everywhere is good tho.
Japan still on their trap shit, smh, Bridget is trash, save the slot for a char that isn’t garbage.
Busta is dope.
Baiken number 1 on every list but the one that probably matters the most lol
Anyone think we’ll get a look at any new fighting games on the 4th with the ps5 event?
Nah. V got the last dance, so Capcom will have an announcement at best.
NRS just released aftermath.
Maybe SNK will drop the new KoF?
I think its unlikely. Most of the major franchises have current titles going strong. Of the titles that aren’t, I don’t see them getting sequels. I’d love to see a VF6 but it will probably never happen. DoA is well DoA. Pun intended. KI is MS exclusive so that is definite no. We already know about Strive. COVID likely pushed back any Capcom announcements. NRS isn’t done with MK11 yet and SNK seems to be all in on SamSho.
Is season 5 of SF adding anything else except characters and costumes ?
Any vskills / triggers / ca / balance patch ?
You get a free color, what else do you want?
I’m guessing will get more details this summer. Only thing known fright now is 5 characters amd 3 stages.
I haven’t played this in like 9 months but I have a strange itch to make a new account and learn Poison.
