Hello! So I just saw Guilty Gear Xrd -SIGN- on sale on Steam. I've had an interested in jumping into the FGC for a little while now (I've checked out Evo a few times but haven't done much beyond that.)
Before I drop $24 though, I was just wanting to know a few things.
1. Does Xrd have a good community of players on PC? I know that seems like a silly question to ask on a forum dedicated to it, but since I'm sure I'll almost only be able to play online matches, it'd be a shame if I could never find a game.
2. Is Xrd actually relevant? I know sometimes PC can get the shaft when it comes to releases, so I was hoping that this wasn't a soon-to-be irrelevant fighting game that would be replaced soon with a squeal.
3. Is this a horrible game for a beginner to start with? My experience with FGs mostly involves mashing buttons in Street Fighter, would Xrd be a good place to start or should I hold out for another game? Now that I think of it, I did play Skullgirls some on PC and had a good deal of fun with that, so I'm not completely inept, just inexperienced.
Thank you for your time ^^ I'm excited to (hopefully) be getting started for real with a genre that's had my eye for a while.
