  1. I'm actually really curious about that. I think that Ada in that Carl CG looks less like she's built "built" and more like she's in a state of disrepair, so I kind of feel like it's going to be about the characters' fears rather than past traumas.
  2. Remember that Relius and Terumi were manipulating not only each other but also the Imperator (or so they thought) and all had different goals. Relius is by no means a nice or well intentioned guy, but his were by far the least malevolent of the three, and his victory would have been the best case scenario. The other two are fucking crazy genocidal maniacs (or I guess in Izanami's case that's just what she is as a force of nature) while Relius just has a strange messiah complex. You could also make the case that without Amaterasu and Izanami the world would be much better.
  3. If Relius had won in CP, literally none of the conflict and tragedies afterwards would have happened. Think about that for a second. This is a major problem with Japanese storytelling as a whole, they write characters in shades of black and white and not realizing that you can interpret a character in more than one way. Like how they expect you to sympathize with Ragna or Bang even though nothing about them being good people is objective.
  4. Highly doubt he's going to be playable. Johnny and Dizzy had detailed models too.
  5. @Calamitus Noel is famine, because that's what's going to happen when you put her in charge of cooking. Brief theory on Jubei and why it's taken him so long...what if the cat form is not how he really looks? What if he was a humanoid or something before and something happened to him? It would certainly be something to save until the climax of the story and would also make his relationship with Nine much less unsettling.
  6. I AM CALYPSO ,AND I THANK YOU FOR PLAYING TWISTED ME-uh, Guilty Gear. You still have Kliff. And Slayer. They're both old and badass.
  7. I uh....don't have the heart to tell you lol.
  8. Where are you all seeing this crest at? I didn't watch the trailer except to scour for CGs to pick apart.
  9. I brightened it in photoshop and it looks pretty identical to your image. You can see the collar and the cravat and the hair looks spot on. Good catch.
  10. Are you sure that's Ada? I can see what I assume to be a robotic shoulder with long blonde hair but the image is so dark I can hardly tell.
  11. The only thing they have to lose from it is that they can't make you pay 10 dollars for color packs and extra BGM, which they shouldn't be doing to begin with.
  12. Games have had color edit functions before, in fact the PC version of GGX2 Reload has color edit mode. Tekken Tag Tournament 2 has a very robust soundtrack customization feature as well. I guess they figure that the amount of people that want them is not high enough to justify the effort. I'd like to have it though, maybe even have the arcade version let you save your custom colors to your player card so you can take it with you. That obviously would not work for the console port however.
  13. PS3 and PS4 have cross play together, it will have more opponents provided your connection is good. Get whatever is your preference though.
  14. It was funnier when "MY THOUGHTS ON YARC" did it. I still laughed, kind of. I give it a CP vanilla Ragna/10.
  15. I'm not sure if I should even post here since I don't play Guilty Gear but I've found myself in this situation in other fighting games before so I'd like to throw in my two cents. I think it's important for you to consider what makes you want to play Slayer. If you really like his character or his style and want to continue playing him for that, then the struggle is unavoidable. You're not the only one who has to struggle either, literally every Slayer player has to overcome his handicaps, and everyone currently playing him seems to be managing. I think, if you do want to continue playing him, you should be more specific with what is frustrating you so you can work on overcoming it, because to be honest it was pretty disrespectful for you to pop off at the other posters right from the get go. It's fine to be frustrated but you won't get anywhere if you don't try to address what's making you upset. That said, if you're only still playing him because he's all you knew before, then I don't see why that would hold you back from learning a new character. I mean, obviously learning a new character is going to feel weird and unfamiliar and require some work, but if you stick with Slayer you're still going to be in that situation because you're adapting to an inferior, newer version of him. If you like his play style, you can try and find another character on the roster with superficial similarities or who has something like what you liked in Slayer. All I can really say is that it does not seem like you are having fun with Slayer, and it seems like his nerfs and how demanding he is are demotivating you from continuing. So really if you aren't having fun then there's no reason to continue playing him. You said that learning a character that isn't Slayer is more than you're capable of, but if Slayer is as different as he is, you're going to have to adapt to him anyway. Sorry for the wall of text.
  16. Are you air dashing in a lot? Because air dashing is a commitment that you have to be prepared for. You can easily be hit with an anti air if you predictably air dash in constantly, and you won't be able to save yourself by blocking.
  17. I couldn't tell you which version of Relius is considered the best, but to me his CP 1.1 version will always have the top spot in my heart. Jump cancellable 3C, brutal frame traps, no other character ever has given me the same impression of controlling two characters at the same time like 1.1 Relius has.
  18. The way I look at it is this. If you really enjoy the game, then losing won't upset you THAT much. I mean nobody likes to lose, sure, but if you love the game enough you'll be willing to invest time and effort into improving yourself. Even if you are getting really salty from losing that in itself can be your motivation. Understand that nobody on the planet can win every single match they play, not a single person. Whether it's that one guy in your local scene that knows the game better than everyone else or your favorite Japanese god player, everyone is going to have days where they just can't get it done. But if it's really upsetting you that much, you don't need to force it.
  19. The console version isn't out yet so there is no word on any kind of DLC. In fact it doesn't even have a date beyond Spring 2016.
  20. Most people would say Litchi is better but you should play whichever one you prefer to play.
  21. He said surprised but also said "on the contrary" in specific reference to people asking him if nerfs would continue, so I'm thinking they're just saving all the fun tech for the final game. Karin was not the only character to lose her links sadly, that was a universal thing. #FireCombofiend
  22. Sounds like a fun diversion, here's mine. S: Relius, Ragna, A+: Hazama, Terumi, Azrael, Kokonoe, Tager A: Jin, Noel, Makoto, Tsubaki, Mu, Izayoi, Rachel B: Nu, Lambda, Amane, Arakune, Valkenhayn, Bullet, Platinum, Naoto, Nine C: Taokaka, Carl, Kagura, Celica, Hibiki D: Hakumen, Litchi F: Bang
  23. Basically, things like modding the sound and graphics of PC ports for Arcsys games. If I wanted to discuss custom soundtracks or colors for PC ports of BB and GG, would that be against the rules? Sorry if this is the wrong section, I didn't really know where else to put it.
  24. Are you using BetterDS3/SCP Server? If not get that.
  25. Um, I think fujin in this context is supposed to be a mythology reference, like Anji's move.
