  • Highlights all taken from my streams which can all be found on my twitch or this channel as well! Overall had a fun time with Slayer but the mechanics of Strive still elude me for now. Wild assault and drift rc a bit out of my grasp but who knows, maybe I'll get there and stream again come next monday.

      Sure, Strive is fun but I don't like the approach. Like juggling way to combo, air options get nerfed and people keep bringing up like how the game is a snowball experience. Heck, even its reboot losing literally core aspects and identity of the game carried along the journey. Is not a healthy relationship b/w the community. Mechanics can be bad at launch.

      ​​@@SSM24_ Tbh compared to previous entries. Strive remotely not anywhere close to older entries. Like GGX did to the missing link when game redesign and found its identity even Xrd has lot more excuses for its experiments. Having an anime game with an air option is gutted along with expression with combo. How you play. No longer feel your traditional anime fighter. Cherry on top juggling way to combo. Also the game is simplified in a very questionable way. Moreover, someone brought the topic and gave a valid reason. It started getting hard to ignore. Seeing people's comments makes me wonder if we follow the core or identity of the franchise. It's not like i hate it. But next game I like to remove juggling and give more like blazeblue ground recovery and some air options to the game.

    So, strive is dead. More braindead character in Guilty Gear simply doesn't exist. Endless pilebunkers and dandy steps again.

    Strive still sucks though and is but a shadow of the series prime. No amount of dandy is gonna save this game.

      @@LucidButtonMasher Simply cause the older games were why I even found and stuck with your channel in the first place. So of course I am gonna end up here when I keep on following your channel.
      And of course I am gonna find it hard to keep my thoughts to myself when I see it crop up in a place where I thought I could avoid that disappointment and borderline betrayal of a game.
