I love how for most characters they look and sound at least similar to their Xrd appearance, and then you have Faust
Making a giant magic door and exhausting yourself to death will do that to ya
@@kumagawamisogi1968 fair enough, I forgot to take that into consideration
@@theundeadcactus6194 worry not, I'm sure he'll bounce back...maybe
That's a theme with characters who die in GG, they come back as a shell of their former selves, with at most one or two qualities they had in life. Zato & Bedman are the other examples besides Faust.
At least he's still him, us Bedman fans just got the Bed... And his sister. And a question mark
Keep in mind in lore this was a 2 week timeskip
Seriously?
@@gavinrak2692 Yeah. In Rev2's dlc ending, the radio announces That Man turned himself in the the authorities and Strive shortly follows that story.
So everyone changes their fight stance in 2 weeks. Love to see real logic behind that.
@@dalton2k538it’s also a video game where there was a more than 5 year period between game releases…. You’re probably fun at parties

Bedman?: Makes Delilah safe and happy in its bed arms.
Bedman: *Reddit rant*
"We talk about 'survival of the fittest' a lot but all that really means is the skilled live and the unskilled die. Since you're clearly in that second group, maybe pick your fights a bit more carefully? Do you understand what I'm saying? It's never going to matter how much you 'want it' when you're up against someone who can kill you with a sneeze."

@@DerumaSan It's OST from Guilty Gear Xrd - Heavy Day
4:55 Same goes to here too
It’s interesting how with Xrd’s graphical design, it’s deliberately trying to mimic older sprites with its jerkier movements and saturated colors while Strive has a more down-to-earth flow with its focus on 3D graphics.
Down to how they look, you can tell that each game is a completely different experience.
xrd has way more personality everything is watered down in strive
@@eebbaa5560 I agree on the presentation side of things, but the characters in strive have just as much life. I vastly prefer strive potemkin to xrd.
i think strive dives more into the full anime style instead of the old sprite style
@@cooperlittlehales6268 the new characters like goldlewis nagoriyuki and giovanna are really boring but it's a case by case basis for the returning characters. i play sin for example, and i think both designs are good in different ways. however, some characters like may and bridget are super boring compared to their old game counterparts (plus they pretty much look the same as each other). sol and ky are also just straight up worse.
@@eebbaa5560WHAT DO YOU SAY TO CHADLEWIS DICKINSON!!!
i love how every gg strive youtuber has agreed to pause the music during i-no and axl's intros

@@MCSorry Doesn't she say "Be my bottom bitch" when she grabs you in Strive?
@@0Ihs_ Midriff gang rise up
I absolutely love Baiken's intros, they're almost exact polar opposites of each other. Xrd has her walking away into a field and smiling like a badass as the screen clicks from colored to black and white. While Strive has her walking into the battle away from the field and the screen already being black and white before she cuts the color into the frame.

@@tzeentchmundi44 Bloody 'ell
Also lets remember that in Strive the shading is dynamic, while in Xrd each character has their own shading independently of the actual lighting coming from the stage. Making Strive's designs feel more grounded to their sorroundings and Xrd's designs more 2D looking. I feel like in some stages the shading in Strive really shines while in others it doesn't as much, while Xrd is pretty uniform. I honestly can't decide which style I prefer, they both look so good
they added dynamic shadows to xrd later on.

@@영환김-f9xHe used all of his magic to erase a force field around Delilah in the dlc story in strive. So now he’s a shell of his former self. Hopefully he bounces back.
@@ConnonBallk7ummm...about that...
I love xrd more when it comes to animation (the limited 2D feel really had its charm to me) but I love strive when it comes to the design of the characters, for the most part. Both game are amazing and people shouldn't argue about which game is better since they are both aiming different thing with their art direction, we should all appreciate how great guilty gear as a franchise is
no, i will critique, in a technical sense, strive looks better, but the aesthetic is gutted
@@ratedr7845 true everyone just has boring office/day clothing or shitty techwear now. the game may look better on a technical level, but strive has way less personality.
@@eebbaa5560 that's a very narrow way to see it. if you pay attention to most characters in xrd their outfits were all staying too close to the formula of previous installments of the series. besides strive's designs are obviously trying to show how the world is moving forward. in the year 21XX it would just feel weird to see everyone still looking like high fantasy wizards
and you're also missing the point of both games doing something different. both are good, learn to enjoy both.
@@tsugu9146 everything you just said sounds like cope and doesn't really prove that the designs are good. you can still have a more futuristic style for the characters without being bland. different doesn't automatically mean better.
@@eebbaa5560who in the cast looks like they are wearing office clothing? the only one who is, is Giovanna because she's a rougish secret service agent. but saying that is like blaming answer's design is boring. and i guess ky, but why would ky be wearing his military uniform at this point. so looks basically exactly like xrd, the only differences is that his jacket has sleeves and his shirt doesn't have a cross and isn't skin tight. and then characters like nago, bedman, faust, potemkin, zato, ram, testament, asuka, jack-o, baiken, anji, i-no look like they do, i don't see what you are saying. sorry if i'm sounding mean.
Man, Faust went from funny crackhead to walking bones
First time taking Crack vs a year in
Next guilty will hopefully have goofy faust again…I miss him
Real.
Nah blud is gone. Bro went from insane to sane and back there’s no way.
Won’t stop me from hoping though
Ngl I love both designs equally (although I never played xrd) I do miss his goofy version though (I'm a Faust main btw)
@@KeyshawnGurley It's a fighting game, he's got a good chance of returning. Especially with GGs insane universe.
man I miss how Xrd's round start intros weren't just "walks up to the screen"
I like the added weight to animations + the fact that Sin got to unfurl his flag now XD
I already liked most of Strives redesigns but what I didn't realize was just how much better the posing and stances on the strive cast are. So much of their posing reads much more clearly in Strive over Xrd.
I noticed that too and while the elegant poses are very cool, I like Strive's better due to the fight seamlessly changing to the victory screen. Feels super smooth
My favourite is Potemkin. They made him look so much larger with his pose(partly because he is actually larger in strive)
I even noticed in some of the small things, for example with Ramlethal, they make the little Lucifero flying dude behind her much more visible/clear in the idle animation
Xrd shows more character expression in more simplicity
@Ginika-qv7oh I don't really agree, but you're entitled to that. The main problem with XRD is that like 70% of the animations are unreadable because there's literally no transition frames, the characters just start their moves almost immediately
beautiful edit, especially love the music pausing in ino's and axl's intros and the music becoming lower quality to match baiken's theme was a nice touch too
2:44 bro how did Leo age like 30 yrs in 3 weeks
I think they always wanted him to be older but his xrd appearance didn't look old enough.
he just quit the cosplay events and went to a good stylist
Some characters like Millia and Leo had a serious glow-up in Strive. I love Millia's overhaul in Xrd, but that bright yellow mustard color makes her look like a plastic doll. Leo Whitefang's design wasn't too bad but his jacket design in Xrd looks rough, I can't even tell if that's his hair or not and his color palette was a bit problematic.
Milia - yes, but Leo? Come on, he looks like he is 20 years older now.
@@РевольверВалентайн he looks like a dilf now. That's reason enough to rank Strive Leo higher.
Leo's jacket is a jotaro case
@@РевольверВалентайн His face in Strive looks way more detailed and makred than in Xrd where he has a flat generic anime face.
@@Soleryth to be fair that’s most of the faces in strive compared to xrd. Honestly I think Milia and May are great examples of that. Both looked so young in xrd, but now clearly look like adults in strive, which is great since they both are.
Is it just me or did Leo and Chip's pants get crazy upgrades?
axl and sin 💀
Denim jeans
Leo’s Kahkis look fresh as hell.
I saw XRD leo was like "MAN WHY YU FIGHT IN LEGGINS?"
I prefer Xrd's style & boldness, but prefer Strive's design & gracefulness.
what's your preference?
@@meeperdudeify
Overall, Xrd. If there was a way to put Strive’s designs (specifically, character design) into Xrd, then I’d buy Xrd. As it is, I’ll stick to Strive.
This comment literally makes no sense.
@@metube1744
Allow me to elaborate.
When I say style, I mean the way the lines & colors are handled, such as the thickness & strength of the colors.
For boldness, I mean the way the animations try to stand out & are out there with what they do & how they do it, plus the rigidity of it.
For design, I mean the way everything flows together, like how the colors on the characters compliment the world better & the lines feel more cohesive.
For gracefulness, I mean how the animations are much smoother & how the lines flow into one another better, & is overall more fluid.
@metube1744
No what doesn’t make sense is your use of literally.
Baiken is still the one who has her own monologue, the producer really love her.
I think strive should've still followed the more dynamic intros and outros from xrd, even with the more realistic style. Some of the idles are also a bit too static imo, but others do feel more natural while still being exciting
Strive's character design is simply stunning. The clothing matches the characters so much, this is out of this world. Sometimes there's little change compared to Xrd for characters that had a recent rework like Baiken or Potemkin.
But looking at some characters like Sol, Ino, Axl, Sin, Millia, Leo, and Ram I'm impressed that they fit so much details on their outfits, still keeping the key ideas of the original one. They're so unique, and yet they perfectly reflect the character's identity, while all being on the same art style with a mix of simple clothes and overly complicated coats and belts.
I just love it.
Also, I can't stop to appreciate how some weapons were treated. Sol could be one more anime-sword-fighter we see in most fighting games, yet, in Strive he wields one of the most unique swords I've seen, it's a perfect mix of the concrete slab Order Sol used to wear, and Fireseal. It has details everywhere, burning magma-like lightning effects inside. Sames goes for Ram's great-swords, they are perfect versions of the previous ones, overflowing with details, yet so harmonious.
Relax it aint that deep
Strive's redesigns are the blandest desaturated shit, what are you on
I agree
@@silpheedpilot7if u know anything about character designing, it is DEEP. But I bet I've never drawn a single thing in ur life so stfu
@@evilevilcritter Strive quite literally turned up the saturation, what are you on about?
stopping the song on the time pauses was super sick, great video!
Everyone having even a slight bit of change:
Jacko: Nah, I’m too perfect to change. Oh, maybe one thing. *Changes her hair and eye color lol*
She got thiccer too
The development of science and technology visible to the naked eye
The change to Sin's posing is so subtle, but it's such a huge upgrade.
His line of action is so much stronger now.
4:01 her guitar grab with the music pause was pretty badass
Am i the only one who prefers Xrd REV 2s art style and a good chunk of its character designs?
I much prefer Strive in most cases, but Zato looks much better in Xrd I think. Leo and Millia also have kind of rough designs in Strive. Otherwise I think everyone got glowups even if I miss Ram's shoulder guards.
@@Renoistic You're tripping everyone looks better in Strive (especially Sin, A.B.A and Sol)
I don't even play this game and I can tell you all the designs on the left look better.
@@GrubKiller436 My honest reaction 😐
Nope. I still like Xrd more. Don't get me wrong, Strive us a beautiful game, but Xrd has that charm that unites the 2D era seamlessly into the 3D era. Xrd is still my favorite
I liked Ky's guard more in Xrd, also his electricity looked better in blue color when casting Stun Edge and such.
Only things I hate about Strive's animations are the intros and outros for some characters not being as dynamic as I'd want them to be. Otherwise, most of the designs are way better (minus Ky why isn't he a twink)
twinkdeath
I love the new Ky
@@zennistesame
also i thought he was still a twink 😭☠️
Ky still looks like a twink lil bro
Ky's Gear Cells buffed him up like they did to Sol
Strive has a better graphic engine, but I really like the artstyle in Xrd’s way more.
The hair animation is like 2 generations ahead of XRD. The way Millia lets her hair down during her victory animation... dead ass makes me flustered.
@@nathandam6415Unreal Engine 3, which XRD runs on, is severely hampered by its restrictive bone limit for games like XRD, where as UE4 supports more bones
facts
@@nathandam6415 animation in general is way better on strive. problem is, Xrd was leagues more stylized and cool, i really miss Xrd character intros in comparison
Honestly hope they add the xrd models as an alternate costume or something, i really like some of the old designs
Notably may
It will actually require them reanimating the 3d model if they do that
strive faust makes me feel like he is from a horror movie 💀
Faust lost his medical license between games
lmao
2:09 Is it just me or is Leo's stance less guarded in Strive than in Xrd?
Edit: Should've mentioned this to begin with, but -- the music editing is on point with this vid!
yup its because he wants to die because of his survivor guilt
If this was an anime xrd is the series and stive is the movie.
Funny cuz strive basically has a movie built in
@@cheese0827 I like how the Album comes with a full on movie and a free game.
Boy, do I have news for you. Strive has a SEQUEL ANIME
Bro I cant even focus on the video when the music is slapping this hard in the background! Great job with the timestop effect and the mono audio effect on baiken's intro.
I love how strive's more down-to-earth when it comes to characters designs.
Same here
Xrd had waaayyyyy more style and personality IMO. Sol's intro is still highly badass to this day.
Chip, Zato, and potemkin got massive glowups
Also Millia
Just more than that, idle poses got changed since XRD is just AC+R animation wise. Didn't even notice how they gave the posing style a lot more clarity and consistency until this video lol
My Design Preferences:
1 Sol , Strive
2 Kai , xrd
3 Leo, xrd
4 May, xrd
5 Ino, Strive
6 Axl, xrd ( I hate both ngl lmao)
7 Melia, Strive (but both are great)
8 Sin, xrd
9 Jacko, they're really similar but I like Strive's red hair more.
10 Chip, xrd, Strive's is overdesigned (despite that usually being my guilty pleasure).
11 Baiken, Same with Jacko, I think the colours and contrast are better in Strive.
12 Ram Val, Strive 110%. might be my favourite redesign.
13 Faust's versions are really different but I like the darker feel of Strive's.
14 Zato, xrd.
15 Green strong guy (idk forgot his name), xrd.
16 Bedman, Strive.
Xrd - 8
Strive - 8
perfectly even. cool!
Allow me to make some corrections, if you will:
Kai is actually Ky.
Ino is I-No.
Melia is Millia
Chip is actually Chipp.
The "Green strong guy" is Potemkin.
Jacko is Jack-O.
Ram Val is actually Ramlethal.
Just wanted to give some corrections. :]
Hard disagree with Baiken. For one, taking the indent line (as well as the light reflection) from her chests is less realistic and they also went away from her original hair color and general palette. The rest of the Strive characters have a more muted color while her clothes go in the opposite direction. Why they muted her skin but saturated her hair is beyond me
This may be just me but the switch between Xrd and Strive feels like when AoT went from WIT to MAPPA. not to say that either style is bad, one just has a very mid 2000's era style to their faces while the other has a lot more line work and shading
2:56 I Can't Lie This Is Too Adorable Y'all

Like that's cool dude in a friendly voice
Every single one is such a solid improvement. Also, loved the editing work on the time stops from IN-O and Axl Low. Good stuff.
Although i liked most redesigns in strive the intro and outro animations have a lot more flair and personality and also flow to them in xrd
If you look at some of the visually outstanding xrd characters like dizzy and Johnny their xrd intro and outro animations look better than they do in strive
Also in xrd there were a lot of unique intro And outros
Sometimes having unique ones for every character
Slayer's the only exception because Arc System Works managed to make him even more dandy than his Xrd version
It's obvious they prioritized brevity in Strive.
@@Renoistic Which isn't a bad thing because some of the visual choices flow better than their Xrd counterparts
並べると結構衣装変わってんのに
違和感ないのすごいな
I will reiterate this from the last video, I love how sol’s weapon just gets bigger with every game
It’s so hard because the old pixels have their charm, xrd has classic outfits slightly updated and strives shows evolution
ive never seen i-no's strive intro before, that goes hard as HELL
Strive is an evident upgrade in definition and animation, but the better game (and still hell of a looker) is Xrd Rev 2, for me...
At least until they bring back to Strive: Instant Kills, put real cutscenes (or ending images) to Arcade Mode, and also bring back my favorites: Dizzy and Jam. There were other "shortcuts" taken in Strive, that were full blown things in Xrd Rev 2, but they are not very worth mentioning.
I am really hoping them to be the next 2 dlc characters since Johnny has been revealed
It’s fascinating to think how strive might’ve turned out had Covid not happened
Absolutely agree.
I felt that way too but strive has grown on me too the point i love them both the same and am happy they did something fresh rather than expanding further on what started as SIGN. Dizz and Jam have a real good chance, fan favs. as far as instant kills theyre cool animations but in actual gameplay i dont miss them. hardly even notice because in actual pvp gameplay they are basically never used at high level. i have been seen them worked into the end of combos people did on me a small number of times but other than that, its usually a clumsy last ditch effort that hardly ever works on a human because a raw IK come out slow and televised.
Never understood why they didnt put jam in strive. I saw her as GG's Mai Shiranui, Chun li, Morrigan etc
One looks like an anime series, the other like anime movie
I wonder what the art direction for the next installment will be. So far we've got shonen, weekly anime style. Now we have movie-esque style. I feel like the next art style should really push their graphics pipeline, because technically, they're still doing things very similarily as with xrd, just with enhanced visuals and different style. Maybe, something that allows for dynamic cell shading (e.g. the thickness of the brush by an artist can be controlled to exaggerate certain areas of a drawing, and in animation, can be very important.). This would be cool to see actually been emulated, and maybe even showing different brush styles, so the outlines of the characters can appear to be brush strokes in overdrives etc.
They set the standard on anime graphics that have still yet to be replicated to the same degree. Now imagine them pushing it further.
(I'd actually like to see them tackle a spider-verse fg, since the characters are in different art styles and the shaders used are very intresting due to the comic origins. Actually, maybe just have the next GG game have characters in different art styles. Ky based on a good fanatasy manga like berserk. Sol, if he appears again, just straight up be daisuke's old art style that is rooted in rock. May obviously a very cartoony one. Imagine Axl being based of british comics like the Beano comics.)
Wawww this is pure art , strive upgrade is awesome im very impressed , i have to rebuy it with all dlc
Strive may have some nice details, but OG animation movement is top notch. Also brighter colors looks nice
All the girls were made EVEN thiccer in the new one. Milla starting to have the chun li thunder thighs.
Xrd overall seek way more interesting for me. I simply love the graphics, the intro, and the general design. Strive is way too cell shading for my taste.
it's kind of nice seeing most of the cast maturing as time went on
Faust and Bedman? in Strive are the definitions of "oh god what have they done to you"
wow jack o just inverted hair colors 🔥
Height
saturation and contrast
Smooth models
Upgraded physics
new, smoother animations
Basically, that's all?
They're focusing on quality.. hope performance comes next
REV felt like everyone had a bad hair day and their clothes were a toss up of Clasic designs from MS to Accent Core and Whole Overhauls, while Strive Definitely went on to be its own thing, while still referencing some greatness (Except in cases like Baiken and Millia where they got a major overhaul already so they just tweaked them a little and voila, greatness retained and improved upon even).
I enjoy both games honestly for what they tried to do with art styles, even though I prefer Strive
Also Heavy Day is the goat of GG Intro songs-
EDIT: Man you didn't have to go THIS HARD with editing! Especially I-no and Axl
10年前にテレビアニメでやってた作品をリメイクしてアニメ映画にしたみたいな感じだ
Todos muito bons, mas prefiro o Guilty Gear XRD pois lá os personagens são mais atraentes, tem mais animação e tudo o que a gente gosta de ver, como acrobacias e muito estilo!! 😍😍😍😍
I love the difference between XRD faust's victory and Strive faust victory.
One goes away, and one gets closer.
Faust went from weird silly doctor to zombie.
Just have to point out,

The have a lot of censorship though
My XRD vs Strike Design Takes
Sol: XRD > Strive
Ky: XRD > Strive
Leo: Strive > XRD
May: XRD > Strive
I-No: Strive > XRD
Axl: Strive > XRD
Millia: XRD > Strive
Sin: Strive > XRD

Baiken: XRD> Strive
Ramlethal: XRD > Strive
Faust: Strive > XRD

Potemkin: XRD > Strive
Bedman: Strive > XRD
So Overall: XRD 8 and....Strive 8
Damn, gotta wait til the next Guilty Gear or more DLC's to break the tie
XRD did have a bit of an unfair advantage in that every mirrored design like Potemkin and Baiken were just gonna outright look better thanks to the more vibrant shading and significantly better textures.
The outfits in strive begin to resemble actual clothing people would wear
What’s the song at 9:00??? I love the really fast organ or whatever it is
"Pillars of the Underworld." Ky's theme from the Korean Version of GGXX#R
I seem to like most of all the ggx compared to stride they seem to be more lively in x like i like all the intro and outro but compare them to stride is just look water down on stride stuff like the witch just zoom in on guitar is so cool but they both look good at the same time i think it just x give off more personality compare to stride
It's Strive not Stride
AXEL HAD JORTS 💀
both games look amazing in my opinion 🤷🏾♂
This video makes me want to just play Xrd
Agree. But I bought it for "Story Mode" sake. 😂😂😂
All the new models look better except May. Old May looks _significantly_ better than the new one.
Might regret asking but why?
@@neinja66469I think it’s because in xrd her outfit stands out more! And she looks a tiny bit more like a pirate But that’s just me
the minutiae depends but the overall artstyle and camera movement of xrd is def more appealing
Is it just me or are macro-animations of characters here better in XRD? Obviously Strive’s little animations are better, they’re arguably the best for any “choose your character” game EVER. But the entrances and exits for the most part are pretty boring in comparison. Idle animations are also much more body movements in XRD, strive is mostly chill letting the micro-animations shine
Anime budget vs Anime Movie budget be like:
What happened to Faust's happiness? 😭
Better shading and outlines on boobas in xrd, that's all we need to know.
wish you wouldve shown off their special moves and overdrives as well
I love the way more casual* designs of Strive.
*relaxed. There's just something that's ram-roddish of the designs of REV2.
Imagine not knowing the context behind what’s happening with Bedman 😅
Finished Strive more than one year ago and I don't remember if I played Xrd before, so I came here to compare, to see if I'll buy this one for a good price - It happens I prefered Xrd in every way. But I'm from the time of the grandpa of them all, the first one, having finished with all characters and unblocking Baiken (very difficult task - you cannot die). So, for me, Guilty Gear remains the best one, and Xrd is much closer in design. So, for nostalgic reasons, I'll give it a try...
I really love looking at this, both Strive and Xrd's designs and animation look equally great just in different ways. There are only a handful of things I can say are just better or worse in one or the other (like, the fact that I-No's hat covers her eyes in Xrd just looks ridiculous), everything else is equal, yet different.
I-no's hat is a faithful reproduction of pixel art from the 2D era, so why not praise it?
@@deen7085 It looked weird in 2D too
Jam kuradoberi and Dizzy , i miss you
for me it's 50/50 strive and xrd both have their own appeals but the redesigns on some characters is simply better. Still the characters had their own uniqueness in xrd compared with strive where they seem to blend together in some areas
Anyone else miss jack-o's white hair?
They're both gorgeous. I honestly can't decide. Some things are better in xrd and some are better in strive.
And to think that i played the first GG on PS one a long time ago...
Huge and Great improvement (despite the GG2 got its own greatness). And I love that they don't change Jack O too much since she's almost perfect, isn't she?
I like many of the outfits of strive better, but I think the idle/neutral poses in xrd look better for the most part.
Agreed!
i've never played Xrd before only some seen, but everything i see just looks so more flashy and goofy and i kinda wish strive had more of this.
Dont get me wrong Strive looks fantastic as well as Xrd does, but so many chars in Strive just casualy walk in in Strive and thats pretty boring compared to the absurd intros they have in Xrd.
But i do like it that you can see the enemies intro from your view in Strive. With Happy Chaos there is even a dude that uses that gimmick for his own intro
Ky's glow-up was insane
